Maybelline Fit Me Pressed Powder Review

It's a good budget product that covers the basics of what it says it will. The application sponge is a bit flimsy but for the price I guess it's not too bad.

Remember getting the shade 120, years back for a christmas gift from a friend and thinking this powder was quite bad, I tried so hard to like it as it was a generous gift from a good friend of mine back then and we were very young so spending $25 on a powder was very kind, but I just couldn't. It was a pale, white mess, like a lightweight consistency but it was so pale that it looked as if I dipped my face in flour. Next shade up was too dark so it was either pale white or orange. This powder would stick to any hair or dry patches on my skin and provided basically zero coverage. Wouldn't even think to purchase nowadays, probably get a better powder at postie plus for less $$.

The fit me powder is a good powder for everyday, it doesn't make the skin appear overly cakey or heavy, it also gives the skin a nice finish - hiding pores and texture, providing a natural healthy skin finish, and it does not clog pores. Unfortunately, that is wear the good news stops. It does not last long before creasing, emphasising dryness, or fading. It would take building up the product heavily to provide more coverage and prevent fading.

I don't usually use much face powder as I have dry skin, but I use this lightly to set my concealer. It does exactly what you would expect - sets concealer/foundation, matches my skin tone well and is very light. A basic everyday powder.

I mainly use this to set my foundation. Has a great feel and coverage and a great color selection as well. I'll be intrested to see how it looks on it's own but untill then it's my go to setting powder.

I use this powder to set my liquid foundation when I want a more matte finish. On occasion, I wear this by itself. It doesn’t have much coverage at all but it does give my skin a little glow. I wouldn’t recommend picking it up if you were looking to use it by itself, just because of the lack of coverage, but as a setting powder it does a good job. It sits nicely on my skin and doesn’t make my face feel or look dry. It prevents my foundation from creasing and helps it last longer. The powder is super affordable and accessible and I have no complaints when using it as a setting powder!

I have had this powder for a while now and use it everyday! I use this to set my foundation/concealer and helps my makeup stay on throughout the day. Personally, it doesn't have that much coverage so using it on its own wouldn't do much of a difference, but for a setting powder its a perfect item to have in your makeup bag. For the price, I would definitely recommend this product.

Great for everyday powder, gives a nice matte finish to my face instead of being oily. Don’t think it effects my skin at all.

This is definitely a product that is good for everyday use. It is moderate coverage and has light feel while wearing it. Super easy it use and not “cakey” at all. Definitely worth the price! My favourite aspect about this product is that it doesn’t clog my pores like some other powder foundations do. I use this on top of my BB cream and it looks like I’m not wearing any makeup at all.
