I really love the price of this and my makeup seems to last as well as most other powders! Lasts me a decent amount of time too. It is supposed to be translucent but on my mum who is a bit darker than me it was a little white but not a problem for me.

Again another powder that just doesn't work for me. This powder has alot of white Pigment in it and is quite noticeable so you really have to make sure that you really buff this powder in well. This powder did not do anything for my skin it's very mattifying which would be great for the oily skin people but for dry skin it just made my under eyes dry and emphasized every fine line and wrinkle. Essence is such an affordable brand and much more easily accessible which is awesome. I really dislike the packing the lid broke off and only had it a couple weeks but again this brand is so affordable so of you are on a budget and looking for a very mattiyfing powder and have skim that has a bit more plumness and oils then this is worthwhile trying out.
Tips: Definitely use a setting spray to reduce the white Pigment in this translucent powder.
I like this powder because it's really cheap, though the Catrice one is so much better because it lasts much longer (I have quite oily skin), especially on hot days. This Essence powder will melt right off after a while. Plus I think the talc in both of these products irritates my skin, so I'm moving toward more mineral-based powders wherever I can. However, I would buy this over Rimmel, Maybelline etc because it's the same, just WAY cheaper!
Tips: I use a round sponge to apply and press in - I find the brush picks up too much product and can move base makeup around when applying.
The Essence All About Matt Powder is perfect for an everyday, cheap powder. I use this product all the time to set my concealer and find that it lasts all day, although it isn't very matt I prefer that look as I like to have dewy-looking makeup. Essence is a great brand and this is just one of many great products that they have.
It's a pretty good mattifying and translucent fixing powder for the price. It doesn't leave too much white tone on your face and does absorb oil well. Doesn't last too long however but that's what you get for a $3 Mattifying powder. Great in a pinch.
Tips: Apply sparingly.
