Pretty good coverage

I was looking recently for a non-liquid foundation and wanted to give powder foundation a go. After several trials, I landed on Mineral Wear powder. I really like this as the 2nd lightest shade is a great match for my very fair skin and it has good buildable coverage if applied with a very slightly damp beauty blender. It's expensive for a drugstore powder, though, so I'll only buy it on sale.

This powder blends so well compared to other brands I have tired - even some of the higher end ones! The coverage is average, and lasts a good amount of the day. It is lightweight and controls any shiny spots quite well. So much comes off when using a brush, however, so this can get quite messy - you really need to be careful not to get powder fallout all over the place. This has not caused any issues with my sensitive skin either, which is great!

It is a really nice powder. It have really good coverage and doesn't cause any breakouts. It has a mirror and a soft mini brush. However, the powder is a bit light. They need more darker skin options.

I only use mineral powders and this one is so great! It covers well, has a smooth feeling and doesn't crease or look "powdery". This is definitely a long time product for me!

Physicians Formula owns the pricier side of the drugstore makeup spectrum, and this powder is no exception. However, it's quite worth it since it's a nicely pigmented pressed powder that blends seamlessly and still looks natural. The oil controlling lasts a full 10 hours (although I have dry skin, so those with oilier skin may need to reapply). Overall, effective, and at least less expensive than the powders one may find in Sephora.
