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.

Tips: Great for on top of cheek bones to use as an under highlighter
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
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.
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!
Tips: I use it with a wee Kabuki brush, rather then the powder puff provided, and I find using a brush gives better coverage :)
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.
I use this product every day without fail - after applying my foundations and blush the power sets it and gives a nice matte look that looks natural. I don't use the brush it comes with as I can tell it would get a little dirty after a few uses. It is a great price and you get a lot for what you pay for - would definitely recommend to a friend!
Tips: Don't use the brush it comes with - too small!
I think this would be a good product if you are colour matched correctly. I am a 210 in the liquid foundation of the fit me range, so surprisingly enough I brought myself the fit me pressed powder in 210 also. I found the pressed powder to be very pale, no I haven't gotten darker. I've actually gotten lighter in skin colour with it being winter. But still the pressed powder definitely didn't fit me. Don't get me wrong it feels amazing on your skin and for a powder it actually has pretty good coverage. It gives you a matte complexion which I love just the colour difference to my actual liquid is what made my make up experience with this product a bit of a downer
Tips: Get colour matched before purchasing
This powder wasn't bad but it was pretty average. It gets the job done and sets you're foundation. The one thing that really bothered was that there was tiny ity bity sparkles in the powder and if I put too much on they were really obvious.
This isn't too bad, it is an okay finishing powder. But it is quite sparkly and shimmery. Which I don't really like, it looks like I have little drips of sweat all over my head. If it was just a matte finish, no shimmer then it would be good. But i think that all the shimmer let the whole product down.
Tips: Don't use if you don't want to look like you're sweating or sparkling.
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
