Pressed Powder Foundation

As others have written, these powders do not give the coverage of a foundation…but they do give an amazing finish to the skin!! I bought every color. The darker ones I use as natural blush or bronzer toppers, and with the lighter ones, I give a light dusting all over my face as a finishing powder. They just give that beautiful, glowy, healthy, lit from within look to the skin! Practically every time I use these powders, I get compliments on how good my skin looks that day! They also work great for me as a setting powder for my concealer and eyelids. I just can’t say enough good things about these!

I got champagne which I was a little nervous about because I'm very pale. It is about my skin tone in the pan and not that pigmented on the face; it does however give a fantastic natural glow. There are small pieces of glitter in it, but I have never found a highlight without them even from YouTube reviews specifically about not wanting glitter, so I may just look too closely. This product can give you a natural highlight with a brush, a still natural but more noticeable highlight with your finger, and you could probably use it as an all over powder if you were going for a glowing look (not for coverage ). (I'm oily so I probably won't be testing that.) At any stage I think it shows up enough to be worth putting on, you can build it up enough that the makeup inclined might comment on it and the naïve might say you're glowing, but I wouldn't say you could get it past that point like to blinding or dramatic.

It's a very neutral color; you can't tell a difference from the oil in the middle of my bare forehead and this stuff above the arch of my brow. (Not very glamorous to share, but I hope a helpful comparison.)

I just bought another one to stash in my travel collection. It will be great for quick/conservative makeup. If I had to guess; this is probably the most mature skin friendly highlight that I have in my collection. Though I haven't been able to test that yet; it looks nice on my bare face and reminds me of the highlights that some of my fav youtubers talk about.

As others have written, it probably won't provide the coverage you want in a foundation, but maybe (esp with the right BB cream)? If you want a dewey look you could use it all over. I tried the #4 Neutral and it's definitely awesome as a very subtle highlighter. Given the versatility it would also be an ideal all-purpose handbag item for touch-ups. I'm eager to try other shades.

I love this as a soft to medium intensity highlight! I got neutral it is a beautiful shade(I'm fair to light foundation). It does have quite a glow, so I wouldn't use this all over. Probably getting the sunstorm and rosewood too.

Love these. they have a subtle glow. I am very fair with dry skin, and this gives just that bit of lustre. Its not cakey or powdery and is wonderfully soft. I use champagne as an all over face powder and Cinnamon to warm the face up. They have fast become staples in my daily routine. Hope these will be available for a while. Already ordered back-up.
