I have used this and the Superstay foundation together and the powder is actually my preferred product.
It's a pressed powder, but not so pressed I struggle to get product, in fact I find the product comes out easy and evenly. It's also so soft to touch.
I like to apply it with a powder brush and I find it lasts most of the day, but I'd top it up in the evening for a night out.
For memory there is also a mirror in the compact which is something I always look for when I'm getting a new compact powder.
In terms of packaging, it's very plain ordinary packaging, but on the plus side doesn't fall apart in two seconds.
I used to use a liquid foundation but since having kids I found it too heavy and messy to apply. I found this powder make up about 10? Years ago and I've been using it ever since. I apply with a buffer brush ( don't use the sponge it comes with). It gives a medium coverage, doesn't come off or go shiny. I've tried others thinking I should try something else but always end up back to this one. Bonus it's one of the most affordable powder foundations out there.
Tips: The colors nude and sand are usually fair then fair/med. In this product it's the other way around, perhaps an error. Remember this when choosing your shade. Buy on special from Farmers 3 for 2 deal.
