LOVE!
kenya (498 reviews)

i wore this over my makeup and it gave me an amazing finish! this powder is really nice to blend because its so fine. it has a wonderful light scent that does not irritate my skin or dry it out. the first day i wore this, i got complements from a friend who said my skin looked really nice and glowy. i highly recommend. — 1 year, 3 months ago

keep coming back to it.
luxylexi (234 reviews)

I'm always trying new products looking for the BEST, but i keep coming back to this little drugstore gem. The luminous part may throw you off if you've had bad experiences with "glowy" makeups making your breakouts stand out more but that's not the case with this powder. It gives a healthy sort of glow to your skin but is totally matte at the same time which is a godsend for my oil-slick of a face. Makes my face look airbrushed (my bf says my face looks super smooth and soft). It does contains mineral oil but i guess not enough to make you breakout cause i've never had a problem with it (and i've read that mineral oil actually doesn't make you breakout). The little puff it comes with applies it nicely or a brush is great too. I use light in the winter/spring and medium in the summer when i get tan. The translucent powder is perfect if you just want the matte effect without a little extra color coverage. — 3 years, 3 months ago

A powder that looks good on dry skin!
Jenocide (6 reviews)

I have extremely dry, sensitive skin, let me just put that out there. I got this product because I initially was looking into concealers for under the eyes, and reading Paula Begoun's book and site, found some recommended L'Oreal Paris products, but since the current sale was "Buy one, get one half off," and I had a ton of coupons, I looked for something else she recommended by L'Oreal Paris, and I found this gem. I was hesitant at first, due to my dry skin, and most foundations (liquid and powder) just accentuate it and look horrible on my super pale skin. I like to go without makeup, but I dislike how my moisturizer makes my skin look greasy (because it's thick), and this totally fixes it. It looks matte, and there is no obvious sign you are wearing powder--your skin is soft, no dry patches, no color lines/changes. It's great for any type of skin (no issues or sensitivity from me) and looks good! Just what I wanted! — 7 months, 2 weeks ago

Best Product. Period.
kbrinck (22 reviews)

AMAZING! I've long searched for a good powder and this takes the cake above all else. It never looks cakey and wears light while still setting pretty well. I'm also allergic to most products with zinc, (which the overwhelming majority of powders have) and this has no components that in anyway irritate the skin. It also doesn't have any residual buildup over time. Totally worth the money while still being cheaper than department store brands. — 1 year, 2 months ago

Excellent Coverage, Glow and Feels light
Tiffanys_Face (133 reviews)

I love this powder, it is so radiant and light and the coverage is excellent. I have it in just about every tone due to winter versus summer months. Looks and feels amazing. — 1 year, 3 months ago

Not happy with the light shade of this line
styliani (7 reviews)

I bought the lighter shade because i ve heard so many good things about the transclucide one.And since i needed coverage i thought that would be my best bet. It reminded me of the face powder my grandma used to have. Very thick and with the consistency of flour.When you try to apply it it doesn't ''sit'' in your face and has no coverage unless you use tons of it and by that point it makes you cough because you inhaled so much of it. — 1 year, 4 months ago

Love it!
z817182 (5 reviews)

I wasn't sure what to expect, since my last "luminzer" was more glittery than illuminating... but this powder is wonderful! It seems to make my skin glow without glittering _at all_! I can't imagine not having now that I know — 1 year, 7 months ago

AWESOME
Norris (2 reviews)

This is by far the BEST face powder out there and I've tried every expensive brand there is. Line softening, pore minimizing, lasts all day - just PERFECT. This one will not disappoint. — 2 years, 1 month ago
