Would you buy this product again? Yes!

The powder is finely milled and is so soft. It's got a light texture, yet makes my skin velvety and smooth. It's great for touch-ups too. I wear the powder over foundation (lately I've been using the Moistureblend SPF 15 compact foundation) and it works wonderfully. I usually don't like pressed powders so much, but this one is nice.

Comments: When I still used MAC liquid foundations, I would use a bit of this to set my makeup. Great for touch-ups as well!

After using this, I can honestly say I will never use a pressed powder again. I love the texture of this powder. It is really fine, and doesn't look cakey at all. I use it on its own, or over foundation. It is also perfect for touch-ups if needed. I seriously love this stuff.

For the days when i dont want to go all out with foundation i put this on lightly with my 187 and just smooths out my skin. its not cakey or heavy. but the coverage is pretty good for being a sheer powder. i really like it a lot!!!

Would you buy this product again? Yep..definitely..i've hitted pan for this...going to get another one soon!

This is HG pressed powder. in fact i don't use any loose powder. this is the only powder that i own. I am a SFF NC25...and it gives me very good coverage..not to mention it's sheer and it lasts long. Unlike some brands, this powder doesn't turn cakey on my face.let's just say it's sheer. one of my friends commented that my face looked very smooth and doesn't look as if i have any powder on it! recommend this to all

Would you buy this product again? Absolutely!

I use this product over Select Tint, and it gives me an airbrushed finish. It provides a bit of coverage and feels very light on. It doesn't create a cake finish like i had expected. Instead it leaves skin looking fresh and smooth. Definately a great product.

I bought this powder because I was tired of wearing foundation every day.
When first applied, it leaves a nice matte finish but as the day goes on and I reapply the colour buildup makes my skin look darker than it actually is.

I just love the texture, it's really soft and not heavy at all. I wear it alone and my skin looked very smooth. So yes, I'll definitely buy it again!

Never, EVER again. I have combination but sensitive skin, it makes my skin so dry. Dizaster. It is so orangy (I am NC 25, and I bought NC20).

LOVE this powder, so far it's the only one that hasn't made my face look all pink and unnatural. I guess you could say that it's my HG press powder. Love the finish from it (air brush/flawless look), it looks like I'm not wearing any makeup @ all! Feels like nothings on my face too! I use it with concealer and don't have to touchup my makeup for the rest of the day. I'm really glad that one of the MA @ the only MAC counter here in the state I live in recommended this powder to me, if she hadn't I'd probably be using some powder that makes my face all pink and unnatural!
