What pores???
I purchased this powder with my own hard earned dollars and I can't believe how amazing it is! It blows every other high end powder out of the water as far as blurring, mattifying, and smoothing. I have combo skin and large pores and this absolutely wipes out my pores. I dont own another powder that...

Great product, horrible packaging
I absolutely LOVED this setting powder. Normally I never use anything other than Huda Beauty's powder, but decided to give it a try after hearing lots of rave reviews. It is super finely milled and feels like silk. No issues with creasing and held my makeup in all day (I live in humid FL). It legit ...

Great clean setting powder
My old favorite setting powder was discontinued and I've been on a a search for a replacement. I received this in a sample bag on a previous order and I'm so glad I did. I had never heard of Polite Society before so I possibly would never have found this powder and I love it! It's truly translucent, it leaves no color at all. Blurs my pores, sets my makeup, makes all the shiny spots matte, plus it's made with clean ingredients. It's perfect.
Wow!
I think this might be the BEST setting powder I've ever used - and I've used them all. It blurs your face and sets your make up for the entire day. I have oily skin and there was no shine. Love love love!!
FINALLY found my powder!
I used to use HB easy bake. I'm now 31, and it looks BEYOND cakey and settles into my fine lines so badly. I've tried THREE OTHER powders since, and none of them gave me a soft, blurred look. they all were way over-mattifying and looked super cakey on me. I just received a sample of this and gave it a shot and I absolutely LOVE it! it gives a beautiful blur, but isn't overly mattifying and lets me still glow underneath. I don't even know how to explain it- it's beautiful and isn't "too much". I can set my makeup without feeling like I'm completely ruining it. this powder is so good- PLEASE don't change this formula!
Not for everyone
I was so excited due to it being acne, friendly due to all the recommendations leaving about how good it is don't get me wrong. It looks promising when you apply it, but at the second hour, your face looks chalky and separated all my make up, but here's the worst part. It made me get small, tiny acne bumps, which that was the biggest factor of why I got it ! My face also started feeling irritated around the eighth hour. That's when I took off my make up and noticed the tiny bumps.
Doesn't do what promised
The packaging feels very cheap and flimsy, and there's a surprisingly small amount of product inside. For the price, I expected something of much higher quality – both in presentation and performance. Unfortunately, the powder didn't make any noticeable difference to my skin. If you're looking for a mattifying effect, there are plenty of drugstore brands that are not only more effective but also far more affordable – offering more product for a fraction of the price. Wouldn't repurchase.
