Maybelline New York Fit Me! Pressed Powder Reviews

Winner
I have unbelievably sensitive skin, and have searched high and low for a face powder that wouldn't irritate it. I finally spotted this in the drugstore and since it was a low price, figured I'd give it a try. I really liked that the shade pallette had a wide array of colors, and I selected one that actually matched my skin. I have been using this for weeks now, and am very happy with it. I like to apply it with a big powder brush. If I apply it to spots with a concealer brush that works well too, so I can double my product usage. This powder covers well and reduces shine, and seems to blend well into the skin. It evens skin tone well and wears very light-- I usually forget that I am wearing makeup at all, which is especially nice since I like in a very warm and humid climate. Best of all, it doesn't irritate my skin or cause me to break out. The powder in the compact is very durable as well. All in all, I'd say it was a good find and I will probably buy it again. It is certainly a step up from similar drugstore powders, but I do wish that it lasted a bit longer. I hate having to reapply makeup throughout the day, but by 3 PM, it definitely needs some touching up. Other than that, though, I really recommend this powder, particularly to those who have sensitive skin like mine. — 1 year, 9 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 7 of 7 people said helpful

Literally fell apart and doesn't match
I tried the Fit Me foundation in the lightest shade and got the powder as well. The foundation is a good match color-wise, but the powder is significantly darker. Neither the foundation nor powder lasts long, and I was continually re-applying. The worst part, though, was opening the compact ONE WEEK after purchase and finding that the powder puff had come apart at the seams. The outer layers had separated (they must have been held together with the smallest amount of glue) and the inner layer was falling out. I was excited to find such an inexpensive line with easy to understand color matches and simple packaging, but it turns out the line is just cheap. — 1 year, 1 month agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 2 people said helpful

Very good pressed powder!
I always have a loose powder and this I bought on a whim because it was on sale and I was very pleased! It went on very smooth, evened out my skin tone blended easily with my concealer and didn't give me the chalky look of cheap powders. I thought it was great I used it daily and because its marketed towards younger females it helped with breakouts a lot! I would purchase again and suggest to friends! — 1 year, 1 month agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 1 people said helpful

Definitely one of my favorites
I picked up this powder because I needed something new (my old powder wasn't very good) and I wasn't really sure what to expect. Maybelline is kind of hit-and-miss with some of their products. I was pleasantly surprised with how good this powder is. They actually have a shade light enough for me (which is rare, even with higher end expensive brands) and it covers really well. It also controls shine, which a lot of powders don't seem to be able to do. It's super soft but didn't look chalky (which seems to be a theme when it comes to inexpensive powders) at all. I definitely recommend it! For the price, it's kind of amazing! It's one of the best drugstore powders I've ever tried. I'd buy it again. — 11 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Average
I decided to try this powder because I had the Fit Me foundation, and just like the foundation, it's okay. Nothing great about it. I use it to lighten up my under-eye, but that's it. I still prefer the face powder I've been using for over 10 years. — 1 month, 2 weeks agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Great!
This is the best powder I've tried so far. It matches the fit me foundation and covers shine and other imperfections. However, you do need to do random touch-ups to make sure it looks great all day. I think the fit me line is great for a reasonable price. This doesn't have all day wear, but maybe it's just me and my oily skin. — 2 months, 1 week agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Just ok.
I bought the Fit! Me pressed powder along with the foundation and concealer because I saw a couple of good reviews for them. I have to say that the whole line is pretty bad in my book but the powder might be the best out of the three. I got matching shades for all three and even though the foundation looks pretty good on my skin, I feel like the powder doesn’t really match, it’s way too light. I don’t need to use powder very often, but whenever I did use it, it didn’t really do much, didn’t cover a whole lot, didn’t control any shine. It was just kind of there, along for the ride. It lasted for a little while and looked fine, but then faded after an hour or two. I can’t recommend anything from the Fit! Me line, it’s all sort of cheap and definitely doesn’t last all day. — 7 months, 2 weeks agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful
