I have extremely oily skin and my face gets shiny really easily. I need a powder that can keep me shine-free throughout the school day, and this powder works fantastic. It gives a beautiful, smooth matte finish (which I know all of us oilies love). It is light to medium coverage so it's not meant to be used as a full-on foundation, it's just meant to even out your skin a bit, set your foundation, and control shine. It exceeds at its purpose. Also, it's not at all cakey (as long as you don't cake it on). It gives a very natural matte finish.

Smooth as butter, soft as silk and lasts and lasts! This is truly department store quality powder at a fraction of the cost. Love this stuff so much that I buy a few at a time to be sure I am never without. It is really the smoothest powder I have ever found in an oil-free formula. And it has a wonderful matte finish that isn't chalky or too flat. I just can't rave enough!
