This is my new HG loose powder! I have very oily skin that normally gets shiny after 2-3 hours regardless of what foundation or powder I'm wearing. (I've tried various Prescriptives, Clinique, and L'Oreal powders in the past.) But with this powder, my face is perfectly matte after 3 hours and is only slightly shiny at the end of the day with no touch-ups! Absolutely amazing!
This powder is also more finely milled than any loose powder I've tried, with a nice silky texture (rather than dry and powdery). I do need to use more powder on my brush to get an even coat, but it still doesn't make my face look too powdery or dry.
The Translucent Fair shade does have a slight yellow tint compared the more neutral powders I've tried in the past so it may not work for everyone, but it still works for me!
It comes with a sifter and a puff (neither of which I use), although the puff is so hairy it might as well be a brush! The only thing I don't like about the packaging is that the lid does not screw on so be careful if you throw this powder in a bag or suitcase!
At only $5, this is a product that all oily-skinned girls should try at least once! :)
