This little beauty saved me, I was on my way to work oh crap blonde moment! I had not put on any makeup what so ever argh! Went to pak n save (only place open at 7) Found this on the shelf grabbed it and a mascara so I at least had a little makeup on! I was surprised and how much it reduced the redness in my skin. It gives a pretty good coverage.

wont make the mistake of buying this again. makes your skin patchy and orange looking even though i got the lightest shade and im not that pale! but i guess you do get what you pay for
I found this powder better than its liquid foundation alternative , but I wasnt a fan really I couldnt find a shade light enough , and I found that it didnt really set my foundation or stay on all day . I suppose for the price it is an okay alternative and a light weight natural look .
I agree that it does do what it says it would, thin and light weight and definitely looks just like your skin and that's perfect for the price i think I picked mine up for 15 dollars at farmers,,this product does not have as much coverage as I would like so generally I just use it as a back up powder when my mac runs out. For girls that like minimal coverage and a natural look I highly recommend this to you!
To be honest this product, I dont personally think is worth $20. This is just a basic powder, there is no wow factor with this powder for me. I have 2 of these powders, I have 1 in the shade 110, it is a little lighter than my skin tone, and the shade 220, which is good in summertime if I have got a bit of colour. The powders to me just do not last very long on me, after 2 hours its like I never put powder on when I left the house, and my skin is not overly oily, I only get a little oily on my chin and nose. I use this product because its there, but once I finish this product, I will not be repurchasing. The packaging for this is good though, It has a clear window ontop and underneath the powder there is a powder sponge and a mirror. Is quite handy to have that.
Tips: If you are gonna be using this product, I would suggest to pack it with you if you are going out for the day so you can touch up.
I wrote a review for the matching "Fit me" foundation and was equally disappointed with this powder. It looked ok after initial application but quickly faded making my skin look oily so needed to be touched up often. Definitely not a fan :-(
If you are searching for a HG pressed powder MACs Studio Fix pressed powder is they way to go, but if you're not willing to splurge and are looking for a cheaper alternative to set your foundation and remove shine then I would go with Rimmel London Stay Matte Pressed Powder.... This press powder leaves your foundation looking cakey and keeps shine away for only around 30 minutes, and I have normal to dry skin! If you put any setting sprays over this powder, even something as light at MAC Fix+ it makes your foundation separate.
Tips: Try Rimmel London Stay Matte Pressed Powder
Remember getting the shade 120, years back for a christmas gift from a friend and thinking this powder was quite bad, I tried so hard to like it as it was a generous gift from a good friend of mine back then and we were very young so spending $25 on a powder was very kind, but I just couldn't. It was a pale, white mess, like a lightweight consistency but it was so pale that it looked as if I dipped my face in flour. Next shade up was too dark so it was either pale white or orange. This powder would stick to any hair or dry patches on my skin and provided basically zero coverage. Wouldn't even think to purchase nowadays, probably get a better powder at postie plus for less $$.
Tips: The included brush is pointless.
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
This is a great cheap powder, although it does feel a bit cakey i think it looks nice and covers well with a long lasting effect. very good for its price. the best u would find at the supermarket. Waaay better then the liquid one from this range
