Though I haven't re-purchased one of these for a while, it is always a favourite of mine due to the fact that it is translucent. It works well to reduce any oil on the face without becoming too heavy. For someone like me who does have an oily complexion, this is a perfect on the go blotter for my handbag.
Normally I prefer more coverage for myself, however this is a staple item for any girls makeup purse! Perfect for touch-ups and works well if you are needing to change your base colour (due to spray tans, etc.) as it is not hugely pigmented so you save from having to purchase several colours of powders.
The compact is in the standard black plastic casing from MAC and is nice and sturdy so it doesn't break in my handbag. I find that I only use a small amount every time, so these last a very long time, making spending $60 on one very viable.
I use this on top of any foundation I am using as it always makes it look more professional and will decrease any shiny look after a few hours, I also take this in my purse if I am going out and take a small powder brush, this way if i get hot or sweaty, I can just go bathroom and blot my face and make it look fresh again.
Tips: Carry it in your night purse, so if you are looking a little hot or sweaty during the night you can just fix yourself up with this one powder.
