Chanel Poudre Universelle Libre Natural Finish Loose Powder

Light but covers

How did I never try this powder before? I love & use everything Chanel but somehow have been stuck on laura mercier, and then MUFE HD, for past several years. On a whim, I bought the Chanel in #2 and was so impressed. Light, but gives a beautiful natural glow that complements my skin tone and the Chanel aqualumiere base I use. Covers yet does not sit in lines or dry out my skin. Not sure how long during the day it will keep me matte, but I use blotting papers anyways. And as to the price...seeing as how MUFE costs +$30 for .35 net oz and only lasts 2 months, the Chanel is $50 for more than twice the powder. This is the best powder I have tried so far. So happy I tried it!

Make Up For Ever HD Microfinish Powder

A Little too pale

This is a pretty great powder. However, I find it a little too matte/drying and on my fair skin, the "no color" color looks a little white. Also, it's a tiny jar and I am oily, so it only lasts two months.
