Maybelline Fit Me Pressed Powder Review

I brought this powder expecting it to compliment my fit me foundation well, and work as a setting powder. This definitely did not live up to my expectations, as the resulting look was exceptionally cakey. It did nothing to increase how long my make up lasted, and I found at the end of the day when I came home, I might as well have not been wearing any make up at all. I am glad that I purchased this in a sale online, as the colour was much lighter than expected, two-three shades lighter than the corresponding liquid foundation. So disappointed in this product.

For someone as ridiculously pale as me, this makeup is a godsend! I have always struggled heaps to find makeup white enough for me. I use it in the lightest shade (115 I think?). This powder is great, I goes on great and I can either use it on its own, or on top of foundation as a setting powder. It gives a great mac look, but also does (if you look closely) have some sparkle to it, which only means that in flash photos, its extra flattering :)

The only downside to this powder is that it does not last all day, so if you have a long day ahead of you, bring the powder with you!

However, for the price, and the fact that its the first powder in my colour I have found (since the Loreal bare mineral pressed powder got cancelled), this product is the one must have item in my makeup bag!

This powder is good, I use it with my fitme foundation and it works well. It's a setting powder that I lightly apply. I use it all over my face. I found it helps with making my face matte which I love. Just like the foundation this powder doesn't last long and I do found patches however it doesn't borther me. Packaging is abit cheap feeling, and I don't use the buffer that it provides, I use a powder brrush. Overall I do like this product.

I like this powder and can use it by itself with no foundation and it makes me flawless. The only thing I don't like about it is the sparkly bits in it, but that's not a huge deal. I also like it with foundation as it sets my makeup nicely

I got this item in a bulk lot of makeup, so thought id give it a go even though im not to fond on its liquid formula. I got the shade 110 which is too light for me but I only use it to set under my eyes and under and along nose whilst wearing liquid foundation. It does a good job, no caking or flaking and has good staying power. Helps to hide the wrinkle lines due to liquid foundation.

its good cheap podwer, but i think it tends to run more orange that what i would prefer, but i think for my its more of a summer podwer rather than a winter one, however i do find that my more expensive powders do last a lot longe, and this does make you a bit shiny after about 4-5 hours, so for school i would recommend bringing it with you so you can touch it up, but for short amounts of time i think its an ideal powder

This is a great powder, i have very sensitive skin and this was very gentle, i have a light skin color and found a color to match real well. my skin can get a little greasy but this powder makes my face look flawless and great for under my eyes and doesn't look like i have a lot of foundation on.

I love this to set my foundation. I use the colour 115 so im pretty fair skinned. Love that this comes light enough for me. Very light weight. Using it alone give a light coverage that wears off quickly but with something to 'stick' to its pretty awesome.

I purchased this from Countdown - on special of course, I love a bargain! I have an olivey complexion, so chose No. 235 - Pure Beige. It gives good coverage over foundation or BB cream, if you want a matte finish this is ideal. I apply just to the shiny parts of my face - nose, chin, any blemishes and use a slightly damp make-up sponge for even coverage, although the pack comes with an applicator puff. The shade I chose blended in well with my concealer and BB cream.

This powder is perfect for me. I use No. 225 Pure Beige and it suits my skin colour really well. I use it over foundation and it helps to set. I helps my makeup stay on for ages and give an even finish. I find it is very light weight and using the 'fit me' bronzer over top, gives a more flawless finish.
