HD Powder for daily use?

You can definitely use it as a setting powder. It's not just created for photos. I'm giving whoever told you that serious side-eye right now.

I used the HD powder daily, and haven't had any problems..  tho I do agree that its not the best pictures taken with a flash, as it can create a white cast on your face sometimes.

I love this powder as my everyday powder! I bought this about a week ago and I have no had any issues with it- and it helps control my oily tzone. Use it with confidence. Ive learned to us eit sparingly so it WILL last you a long time with daily use. :) Dont worry! You'll love it

It will really only give a white cast if you use too much. you only need the tiniest amount of the powder... The thing is, with the correct amount, it seems like your putting nothing on, so people can over do it so easily. That's when you get that white look. The powder is "HD" because its supposed to reflect light off your face and diffuse the texture of your skin (so if you have large pores, or fine lines they will be less noticeable). BUT if you have too much, it reflects too much light, and thus, can give that white look. We all remember the picture of Nicole Kidman from last year, the one with the white splotches on her face!  

Whichever Sephora Cast member told you that has not had a makeup forever training!

I use HD Powder everyday. I think the packaging is almost designed so it's HARD to use too much. With my container, only a teeny tiny bit will come out of the sifter, so I just use that small amount and it works great. Or...maybe that's just my container :p

I use the HD powder every day I use my HD foundation - and it doesn't give me a white cast or reaction from my skin.  Many of the people getting the white cast in photos are using the powder wrong.  I use my Ecotools bronzing brush [synthetic fibers pick up less product] and do the swirl-tap-buff starting with my t-zone and then moving outwards to the rest of my face.  It was MADE for photography and HD films, so I don't know why your Sephora SA told you that... then again, I don't believe 90% of what Sephora SAs tell me anyways.  If it works for you, use it!  More power to you!  =D

i love how this powder looks but for some reason it always makes me sneeze.. so i had to stop using it :(

i use it veryday !

i just lightly dust it over my t zone
