Decent price dewy yet matte medium coverage should have a better selection of colors goes well with synthedic powder brush setting spray over top for better results good to have In the purse for touch ups and to throw in the bag just in case and to freshen up your look

Helps when you're in harsh light

I work pharmacy so I'm under bright florescent lighting all day and I find it really flattering! Only problem is the lightest shade is a tad too dark for me do I have to really blend it all the way down my neck.

Expensive for drugstore.

Ain't nobody gonna pay 20 dollars for something they can get for $2. Works pretty well, but comes off in like 4 hours. But, the brush that comes with it is great for contouring.

Better than the foundation

I used to use this powder in combination with the foundation and it was good, but I like it better with other foundations. It's very good as a setting powder and it kept me shine free for up to 4,5 hours.

Not Too Shabby

for a pressed powder I quite liked this one. it didn't take much to get good coverage & it's pretty gentle on my skin, not causing breakouts, etc. definitely a good product to try.

Good Pressed Powder

The fair to light is a great colour for me. It feels light and soft on my face. Its pretty cheap and comparable to high end quality. It sets make up perfectly and doesnt look cakey over full coverage foundation as some powders do.

good

This was my first powder and it was great at setting. It wasnt that thick and didnt come on that powdery. It soaked into my foundation almost and just gave it a brighter look. I loved it and it was one of the best powders i've used yet.

Gives a matte finish, sets foundation

The Revlon Photoready Powder provides more of a matte finish and therefore eliminates shine. It comes in 4 shades, translucent, fair/light, light/medium, and medium/deep. The tinted powders help with coverage, and these also contain SPF 14. These powder compacts can be found in most drugstores for $9-$10. The most disappointing aspect of this powder is the amount of fall out. The powder gets everywhere! One sweep of the brush over the compact and it loosens up too much powder, causing a lot of powder to go to waste. The brush that comes with the compact doesn't work well and I ended up throwing it out. I do like the convenience of a compact, but I hate when they break, and I feel like they always break. Revlon should consider making their Photoready Powders in a loose powder formula as well. But this powder works well in eliminating shine and setting my makeup for the rest of the day. Now, for the sparkles. I have read a lot of people complaining about the shimmer. Revlon describes the shimmer to be "Photochromatic pigments bend, refect and diffuse light to help erase flaws." But to be honest, the shimmer doesn't bother me at all and I barely notice it. If you look closely in the picture of the powder below, you can definitely see the sparkles. But once, the powder is buffed in to the skin, I can't really tell.
