Maybelline Fit Me Pressed Powder Review

One of my favourite affordable compact powders that I think you can find from most chemists/pharmacists. I tend to use it after applying foundation to help control shine and under eyes after baking with some loose powder.

Finally! After trying both the Fit Me foundation and concealer, this is the one I've been waiting for! This is up there with the best powders I've used, and I have about 5 different ones that I tend to go for. It evens out my skin tone amazingly and paired with a full coverage foundation and concealer, you've got a fresh and flawless face that will have everyone jealous of your make-up application skills.

This product is a solid supermarket brand staple. For the price I thoroughly recommend it. It's my daily staple.

I am lucky enough to have relatively clear skin and I don't use a foundation most days, I just dust this powder over my face.

Case: Useful, powder puff underneath the powder and mirror (although a little small) is useful if you are on the go. The case opens and closes easily and I have used several of these and had no issues with breakage or damage. Feels nice in your hand - quite compact.

Coverage: If you are looking for solid coverage, definitely use a foundation underneath. If you struggle with blemishes or need higher level coverage I wouldn't recommend this product. As above, I use it as powder and foundation for me.

Application: Although the powder puff is in the case I use a large powder brush, you get a better finish that isn't so cakey looking. Although it's more to carry it's worth it.

Lasting: I find if applied well, with a moisturiser on underneath I get all day coverage from this product with no need to re-apply. I am in an office environment most days meeting and greeting people so I need products to last - this is perfect for me.

Colour: Pick a shade darker than you're used to (see tips below).

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

This powder is perfect for me. I use No. 225 Pure Beige and it suits my skin colour really well. I use it over foundation and it helps to set. I helps my makeup stay on for ages and give an even finish. I find it is very light weight and using the 'fit me' bronzer over top, gives a more flawless finish.

I like this powder it has good coverage lasts and is an affordable price although everytime I've ever bought this product the applicator has fallen to bits everytime which is very annoying and the only downfall

I don't do full face make up a lot, but I am so glad that I got myself this powder! The colour is right, it makes a great covering layer while not looking unnatural or cakey, and my skin breaks out the minimal amount after wearing it (which has been a big problem for me with past products).

After years of struggling to find a powder for my horrible oily skin which would never hold foundation for long I have finally found the best product ever. Easy to apply, which last long after my 12 hout shift finishes gives a flawless effect and feels so light an natural barely notice its on unlike other products I have tired.
