The one thing i like is the packaging, sleek and nice. Otherwise its a bad powder. Look cakey, powdery, chalky, im not a fan of that powder as i like natural looking.

I like this powder. Does its job well with helping to get rid of any excess oils although if you apply it in the morning to set make up it won't keep you matte all day, so maybe not the best for oily skin gals. Has a nice finish and doesn't really go cakey, Just wish the shades would suit me a little better (damn being so pale!). Not the greatest coverage but good for setting.
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!
I am pretty neutral on this product; I didn't hate it but I didn't love it. It provides some coverage, but definitely not full coverage. It at times appeared quite dry on my skin and also at times felt like you had to cake it on in order to hide any blemishes. However, that being said I found it quite good over other liquid foundation, it is quite good for everyday/weekend wear where no decent coverage is needed and the colour matched me reasonably well.
So all in all, it did the job just not the greatest job. It is one of those products that I am keeping as a spare or in my handbag for any little touchups needed on my current foundation.
I love this product! It is so convenient with the built in mirror! It easy to apply when your in a rush and gives a nice and natural light coverage! I do need to reapply it once during the day, but its worth it because i think it supplies a nice natural finish, and its suitable for everyday wear, without my skin being smothered in heavy cakey products. This is a product i use for evening out my uneven skin-tone, not for heavy coverage! As i have olive-dark skin, it is really hard to find a good match, but this powder suited my skin-tone perfectly, which made this a winning product in my eyes. However, in the winter months, my skin is too dry for powder, so i use a liquid foundation, and use this powder for setting!
Tips: Recommend this for a light natural finish, and great for oily skin as i found it helps to absorb some of the oil :)
I really like the Fit Me powder by Maybelline, although it doesn't give a huge coverage for me, it glides on really well, doesn't feel like you have anything on and if you put on some concealer, and a finishing powder over the top, you get a really lovely natural look. I use the shade 120 and suits me well.
Tips: This is great over the Maybelline Fit Me liquid foundation especially if you have a lighter colour in the powder and a darker colour in the liquid foundation, tones it down quite nicely without looking overdone.
Compared to the Fit Me foundation this product is great. The foundation was not for me but I found the powder to be okay. It is suitable for setting your foundation for a bit of extra coverage or even on it's own for lightweight coverage.
Tips: Make sure you buff it in to avoid a powdery, chalky look and don't use the puff that comes with it (they fall apart)
This powder is ok when my skin is a little bit oily after using certain foundations. It also helps set my foundation which is great, but I only use a little bit as it sometimes looks a bit cakey. I definitely wouldn't rave about it. It does what I need it to do though, so I'll keep using it till I get my hands on something better.
The range of shades is good and caters for almost every skin tone, and their affordable price means I can buy more shades as my skin changes colour over summer :) the powder itself is great, goes on easily and stays on the whole day without creasing. The colour is true and works well with my everyday rimmel foundation and maybelline concealer. Definitely recommend :)
Tips: Having clean, good quality brushes really makes a difference while applying.
I tried this powder after seeing lots of reviews online about it and.. im not overwhelmed by it. it can tend to look a bit powdery when applied with a heavy hand and doesn't add much coverage to a foundation. Overall it is a very average powder and is good for the money, but i have tried better powder alternatives for cheaper.
Tips: be very light handed when applying.
