This powder is ok but probably not one I would Re buy. First of all I don't like the packaging; it's extremely big for the amount it contins and is average looking at best. It's not easy to slip in a bag or my make up drawers haha. The powder is ok, it does do a good job of setting but had little coverage and I wasn't overly impressed with the finish, but it is better than a lot. The price is ok, and the range of colours Is great. I definitely wouldn't Re purchase unless was super cheap.

Reviews
I'm fairly new to the whole foundation/concealer process. I was issued the Fit me foundation stick trial from Beautyreview, so I purchased this powder to match.
The packaging is rather bulky and large compared to the product inside. There is very little product. It's not convenient for a makeup bag, or in fact to fit in my makeup drawers. It is a nuisance.
I find that the formula is very powdery, almost chalky consistency. It goes on nice and easy, but has very minimal coverage which doesn't impress me. I like to have something that is very full coverage, otherwise I don't see the point.
It doesn't set in very well, and I find that when I touch my face, it comes off on my fingers. However it does a nice job of making my face appear brighter.
I do like that it is lightweight as I don't like the feel of make up on my face and it gives you a subtle, natural look, and the light coverage, I guess is a good use on good skin days, where my acne scarring and pimples have faded, but other than that it's pretty mehhh.
While I will continue to use this, I definitely would not re-buy.
Tips: I recommend using it over your foundation and concealer routine to set it all in. Also use a brush, not the applicator it comes with. It is much more effective.
Wasn't a big fan of this too be honest. To start I felt it did absolutely nothing to my skin when I put it on. Like didn't even look like I had powder on. Was a tad disappointed in it as I had heard great things about it. I thought maybe I had got a dud but my sister was using it aswell because we brought it at the same time. She also said she didn't like it and felt like you were putting nothing on your skin. Although maybe it just wasn't for our skin types I'm not sure.
Also found the packaging so bulky and awkward.
I purchased this alongside the FitMe liquid foundation, my experience with it was... meh. It's an okay powder, didn't cake heaps but didn't really natural either. The packaging looked great in the beginning but after a while the text rubs off and the clip-closure is not very reliable in staying closed inside my bag. To be honest I was pretty relieved to have finished it so I can try something else. But hey, I finished it though!
Although this powder did set my makeup and absorb any excess oil, i wasn't really a fan. It can look quite cakey and powdery, and didn't really blend in, it just sat on my skin. Although it was a cheap price, there are way better powders out there.
I brought this press powder from the bucket sale in whangarei. I am so happy I brought this cheaper than the original price as I was not impressed with this product. I didnt blend into my skin and the container is very flimsy. The product doesnt last long and my faces shines quite fast after using it. Maybe its cause I have oily skin but personally I wont be buying this product again.
I tried this in conjunction with the Fit Me foundation, I thought awesome these two products should go hand in hand and look fabulous, boy was I wrong. This powder ended up looking cakey and did nothing to mattify.
When i tried this powder I was excited! I thought it was gonna be really good! Can say that when i started using it, i was just using it over my concealer (as i wasnt using liquid foundation just yet) and it was good when i DID start using liquid foundation to lighten my face in the awkward summer-to-winter transition phase. But I did find it... ok this is going to sound stupid, but very powdery! it didnt set my foundation (it always moved during the day) and it caked up my face no matter how little i applied. The only positive i found was the brightening aspect, but that only lasted a month before i got sick of it.
I bought this powder for no reason in particular besides being a compulsive hoarder and it being on sale.
It comes in a basic compact which is functional but slightly bulkier than it needs to be in my opinion. The powder is smooth and makes a fairly good setting powder however does not provide enough pigment to be worn as a foundation which is fairly disappointing for me as I like to wear powder foundations to work.
The thing I loathe about this powder (and pretty much the sole reason that I marked it down so much) that I didn't notice when I first bought it is that it contains glitter in it! Not small finely milled shimmers to make you glow, just big old pieces of glitter.. My boyfriend asked me why I'd put glitter all over my face the first time I wore it.
Overall this is a good setting powder if you don't mind the occasional chunky glitters however if you are in the market for a matte powder or powder foundation I suggest this probably isn't the product for you and I won't be repurchasing.
gosh where do I start, I only ever use this when ive run out of my other pressed powder from rimmel. This isnt my go to pressed powder as it just makes you look you have powder all over your face even when you blend it in i guess this just isnt for me
