I love this because it's such a good size and I actually quite like the design of this product! On to the actual product though, I do like! It is a really smooth compact powder that will definitely help you stay somewhat matte! I find that I still need to retouch during the day but it helps quite a lot compared to some other powders

I don't usually use much face powder as I have dry skin, but I use this lightly to set my concealer. It does exactly what you would expect - sets concealer/foundation, matches my skin tone well and is very light. A basic everyday powder.
I brought this powder a shade lighter than what I should've, but I've just hit pan on it and I'm really enjoying it I will use it for all over my face and press it over my nose so my glasses can sit on it without getting foundation all over them. The powder makes my skin feel smooth and it comes with a good price as well.
I use this powder to set my liquid foundation when I want a more matte finish. On occasion, I wear this by itself. It doesn’t have much coverage at all but it does give my skin a little glow. I wouldn’t recommend picking it up if you were looking to use it by itself, just because of the lack of coverage, but as a setting powder it does a good job. It sits nicely on my skin and doesn’t make my face feel or look dry. It prevents my foundation from creasing and helps it last longer. The powder is super affordable and accessible and I have no complaints when using it as a setting powder!
Great for everyday powder, gives a nice matte finish to my face instead of being oily. Don’t think it effects my skin at all.
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.
Tips: Don't pat too much on- when it starts to get cakey you're using too much. However I have found it difficult to get to this point with this powder.
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).
Tips: My recommendation is to use a shade darker than you normally do. I use 225 in powder (and if using a foundation I use 120). Don't assume you can buy the same number for both product in the Fit Me range.
Also - don't over apply this will leave you looking cakey and your powder will disappear very quickly. I recommend a large powder brush to apply with.
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.
Tips: I don't use the puff it comes with I find it gets really dirty and breaks easily. I use my own sponge and this works amazingly!
I do love this product, it isn't like other powders that can make you look like you have a 'cake face' because it does look natural if you have the right colour. It comes in a package that has a mirror too which I found very handy when you are jusy touching up your make up while you in the car or out on the go. One thing I don't really like about this product is that it shimmers. I know it is so hard to find a product that doesn't have shimmer in it so I am being reasonable.
