The powder is quite fine in texture and, when applying it with a kabuki brush, it gives you light-medium coverage but when you apply it with the sponge that comes with the compact, you can make it full. The shade I tried out is 001 Ivory, their lightest shade, which is the perfect shade for me when I don't have a fake tan on. It's a very pale cream shade with a yellow undertone. I noticed that my pores looked a bit diffused with it on and you really can't feel the powder on your skin. It does have silicone in it, so if you're not a fan of it then you might not enjoy this foundation.
