A pretty good powder

LipglossandSpandex (486 reviews)

A pretty good powder overall. I use it to set my concealer and foundation--because of my acne, powder alone isn't really an option. I have very oily skin and it didn't really help with oil-control, but I have yet to find a powder or foundation of any kind that does. However, it does look really nice, and the loose powder looks nice and natural compared to the sponge and cake-powders. The color is nice. The brush it comes with is a little scratchy but it will do if you don't have anything else. I'd recommend getting a better/bigger brush. And the packaging isn't perfect and not good for throwing in your purse. However, definitely good to have in your makeup arsenal! In terms of value/quality, it's just as good as bare minerals in my opinion. I had a free sample of bare minerals that I tried for a few days and I prefer Physician's Formula--bare minerals made my face itchy, and Physician's Formula didn't, which is interesting because my skin is not sensitive at all! The coverage and oil-control power of the two was equal. And PF is much more affordable, and has TONS of product that will last you a long long time. If you use powder at home, a good buy! — 2 years, 11 months ago
