Maybelline Fit Me Powder

Great product, not as long lasting as I would like but does do the job. Fit Me Foundation and this product do NOT go together like I would have thought and would not recommend using in conjunction..the result is cakey looking, terrible feeling skin. With less oily foundations, this powder does work well.

Tips: When used with a less oily foundation, this product works great

Great Supermarket Powder

This product is a solid supermarket brand staple. For the price I thoroughly recommend it. It's my daily staple.

I am lucky enough to have relatively clear skin and I don't use a foundation most days, I just dust this powder over my face.

Case: Useful, powder puff underneath the powder and mirror (although a little small) is useful if you are on the go. The case opens and closes easily and I have used several of these and had no issues with breakage or damage. Feels nice in your hand - quite compact.

Coverage: If you are looking for solid coverage, definitely use a foundation underneath. If you struggle with blemishes or need higher level coverage I wouldn't recommend this product. As above, I use it as powder and foundation for me.

Application: Although the powder puff is in the case I use a large powder brush, you get a better finish that isn't so cakey looking. Although it's more to carry it's worth it.

Lasting: I find if applied well, with a moisturiser on underneath I get all day coverage from this product with no need to re-apply. I am in an office environment most days meeting and greeting people so I need products to last - this is perfect for me.

Colour: Pick a shade darker than you're used to (see tips below).

Tips: My recommendation is to use a shade darker than you normally do. I use 225 in powder (and if using a foundation I use 120). Don't assume you can buy the same number for both product in the Fit Me range.

Also - don't over apply this will leave you looking cakey and your powder will disappear very quickly. I recommend a large powder brush to apply with.

Maybelline Fit Me Pressed Powder

This is a pretty good, affordable setting powder - I I use it after applying foundation to set it. Goes on seamlessly. and doesn't leave your skin feeling cakey or thick. The container is uber cute! No complaints here.

Tips: Stipple on with a flat top brush to set foundation

Would not repurchase

This was the first (and only) powder I have ever bought and I used it in conjunction with the fit me foundation as I figured they would be great combined. Waste of money in my opinion! I have never bought another powder after this due to being pretty unimpressed. I felt really cakey, and although had been color matched when they were promoting this line I felt like the color was wrong for me. I do prefer the glowing look over matte, and like my makeup to be breathable and natural looking! think I still have a near full one hidden away somewhere!

Fit me

It is cheap which is very good as I'm a student and can't afford expensive powders! I think it is good although not good when you want to cover up blemishes (not very good coverage) as it is very light. Only good for casual daily use

Average Powder

I tried this in conjunction with the Fit Me foundation, I thought awesome these two products should go hand in hand and look fabulous, boy was I wrong. This powder ended up looking cakey and did nothing to mattify.

YAY

I loved this powder when I used it! I haven't brought any since I used the first one, but I'm seriously considering it. It looks really good on my skin and was night and light for me.

Was good, but left my skin looking powdery.

I used this a few times, and found it left my face feeling quite made up (I go for a more natural look) and when looked at closely (about a meter away) I could notice a 'powdery' look to my face, so I wasn't overly impressed. As I work in a Restaurant where I'm running around on my feet all day and don't often have time to run to the bathroom to check on my makeup, I found that each time I was I was not impressed with how this powder looked, and often had to reapply in the bathroom, which left me feeling annoyed, so I stopped using it.

Maybelline Fit Me Pressed Powder

I was quite excited to try out this powder and was quickly disappointed with it. There is a lot of fall out and not much stays on the brush - and that's using high end makeup brushes that I normally don't have any fall out with, even when using glittery products. The powder had little to no coverage and kind of just sat on my face. It was off by lunch time. Every other powder I have ever used lasts till at least lunch time, so I stopped using it after only a couple of days and binned it.

The fit me range seems to have been a let down all round, have only tried the blushes which were disappointing also!
