I've been using this powder for quite a while for a few reasons, but at the same time it has a few downfalls which turn me off it.
Firstly, the color suits me perfectly! I actually find that no matter how much or how little I apply it doesn't make me look too dark or too ashy, it stays pretty much translucent and adds just a subtle hint of shimmer.
The second reason I love it is that holds all of my makeup in place really well! I've had many nights where I've fallen asleep with a full face of makeup on, and many comments waking up the next morning that my makeup looks exactly the same. This is definitely a good powder to set every thing in place and keep you looking nice and matte through the day and night.
The downsides are that it can look quite cakey. If I apply more than a light layer it makes me look like I've got the driest skin and days of makeup on, which is super disappointing. However you don't need a lot to get the setting and mattifying effects of this powder.
It also doesn't give a lot of coverage, if any at all. This is not a powder you would wear by itself, it provides very little coverage. I wear it on top of my regular foundation just to finish every thing off, but I wouldn't complain if it provided that little bit of extra coverage.
Tips: Don't apply too much, although it doesn't affect your skin tone, it definitely starts looking cakey fast.
