I bought this product at my local unichem pharmacy,it comes in shades suitable for most skin types,I use it for extra coverage on top of my usual foundation and to set my foundation..its great for that wee bit more coverage you need and does not look cakey. If I build up my usual foundation to cover acne it can look thick and not natural,but using this powder instead looks natural . I love the compact and I am going to check out other Australia products to review.

Tips: dust over your usual foundation with a powder brush to give a wee bit more coverage and also set your foundation
The packaging is quite similar to the MAC's studio fix powder apart from the mirror is sitting in the bottom compartment along with the sponge. I actually like how it has a mirror and sponge in the bottom compartment. The compact is a great size and easy to carry in your handbag. I find the compact is not very sturdy, I am really careful not to drop it.
I use this powder every day to set my foundation. It applies very smoothly and literally can set any foundation well. I love the full coverage matte finish. It is also great for setting under-eye concealer. The powder does not have any particular smell. It leaves my skin looking natural throughout the day. I have sensitive skin, it does not cause any breakout or irritate my skin at all.
The coverage is amazing and so is the price! I would buy it over and over again. It is now part of my every day makeup. The compact is so affordable.
Tips: I recommend using a powder brush to apply it, not the sponge it comes with, because the sponge tends to leave my makeup uneven and really caked on.
This is definitely the best powder I've ever used. It makes my foundation last all day. It doesn't look cakey or make my skin dry. It looks flawless and also gives a bit of coverage. I always use it on nights out and I never have to touch up, it lasts amazing all night. It makes my skin look so smooth and I will definitely not be trying any new powder anytime soon. It works exactly the same as the Mac Studio Fix powder, but it's way more affordable.
My all time favourite powder, I reckon this is a awesome dupe for Mac studio fix powder if not even better, gives coverage to your foundation and doesn’t look cakey or dry. Sets your makeup in place for hours and does budge! I highly recommend this powder to anyone
I love this powder. I use it on all my clients. Not only is it good to set foundation but also adds coverage. It's great for people with oily skin but works on pretty much all skin types (maybe not super dry skin though). Flawless even coverage that lasts all day. The only downfall is that there aren't any darker shades for more deeper skin tones.
Tips: Don't use it to set under the eyes as it's too heavy, use a loose or translucent powder
I have been using this for years and I would never use anything else to be honest as it does exactly what it says.it is completely oil free so that's a plus for those of you that have blemish prone skin like me and can't use any products containing oil and other blemish causing ingredients.It is perfect for setting makeup leaving it with an air brushed effect or you can wear alone for a more natural look.Your skin will not look shiny as it leaves a nice matt look about it but not too dull.It will last for ages as you only need a small amount and the price is not too bad.I either but this from Farmers or NZ beauty sites online because quite often they are cheaper.
