I use the fit me liquid foundation which I find is a great lightweight foundation but purchased the pressed powder to try and extend it's wear. I don't think it did work at extending the wear of my foundation but it did give a bit more of a 'made up' look and it is great in the way it is lightweight and doesn't feel heavy on my skin like some pressed powders do. I do like using this and it is great for those with a small budget and is great to be able to get a true match to your liquid foundation but this does give a good light coverage on its own as well

This products packaging is simple yet sophisticated. It feels very light weight when applied but I feel it gives very little coverage. It also doesn't last very long. It is good for a setting/finishing powder but unless used with a 24hr liquid foundation and a primer, it doesn't last all day. But it is reasonably priced .
this powder is my ultimate favourite!! it sets my liquid foundation perfectly, also when used on its own i find it still perfectly covers the redness on my face and gives a nice natural look! its lightweight and so easy to apply! definitely recommend it to anyone !
Stays on well and gives a smooth full coverage look. It actually matched my skin tone which often is a struggle for me as I have very very pale skin so I liked this part of it. Very good for price.
This powder is good if you're looking good for a powder with coverage and will mattify. I love to use this under my eyes as it hides the shine well. I have the lightest shade and I find that it's very pink based so wouldn't be good for someone with yellow undertones. Really good powder for doing touch ups throughout the day because of the coverage.
Tips: Use a brush instead of the puff provided to get a nicer finish.
I love this powder,I always use this one Hof the Rommel stay matte powder to set my foundation,it comes in a black case with a compartment for a powder puff,the one Maybelline provides you need to throw away because it's no good to try and use it,I have the shade 135 and I dust my powder brush over the pressed powder then dab over my foundation is small dabbing motions,this sets the foundation without moving it,I find if you brush the powder over your face,to set your foundation this moves your foundation you are trying to set,the dabbing motion is the best way.if you are in a hurry and just want to wear the powder,dust your brush over the product,tap off any excess then brush over your face in a light sweeping motion,this way will give you enough coverage to feel comfortable going out,it leaves your face matte and it's my holy grail powder,there are many shades and I would recomend it to others
Tips: Throw away the powder puff that it comes with in the compact,best to use your own powder brush
I have had this product for years now. I have it in the shade 120 (although my winter foundation shade is probably 110) and I have no problems using this to set my foundation and take away a bit of shine if a foundation is too dewy. I don't tend to have oil breakthrough throughout the day so I cant really comment on its efficacy in that regard. I don't find that this makes my foundation look cakey which I like. I did use my beauty blender with this after seeing Crystal Conte use hers with powder products and it did ruin the top of the powder and make it all hard and crusty- this is not a powder which you can use a beauty blender with obviously.
Tips: Use a big fluffy powder blush and swirl around the face focusing on any areas which you experience shine or where you are concealing.
I liked the Fit Me foundation so I thought I'd give this one a go too. However, I didn't think it worked well on my oily skin.
I've tried better powder than this and the slight shimmer put me off a bit. It didn't help my oily face and it also didn't set my foundation well enough.
I think it you have dry-normal skin this would work better but not for oily skin. I do like its packaging though because it's compact, comes with a mirror and space underneath for a sponge but I didn't use the sponge it came in anyway.
I have found this product very versatile, whether I'm looking for a simple natural look or a more coveraged look. It's done the job every time. And even better it lasts all day/night. This product matched my skin tone perfectly which I find hard to come by.
I have no problems with this product. I find the 120 matched my skin tone good. It is light on my skin and does look natural. If I'm quickly just popping out I will apply it over BB cream and it looks like I'm wearing full make up. It does only last about half a day but is very affordable.
Tips: It does start to look thicker the more you put on so if your'e going for the natural look you only need to apply a thin layer.
