You need a good brush.
I had been coaxed into buying this since my color (illusion) for the loose powder formula is pretty much ALWAYS sold out. I wasn't immediately thrilled but I liked the way that it did end up settling on my skin. It leaves it soft looking not cakey or powdery, which is always nice to not have to fuss too much with a product.
I have never been one for the cream to powders but if I had to choose one this would be it. It does give you some coverage and is buildable but you do need a good brush to do this, or maybe a good sponge.
I just never liked flat brushes and it comes with one (I prefer circular motions to linear). The bristles are OK they are not the softest but I have had worse for sure! Overall I am happy that I own this, it is great to take with me instead of foundation and powder since essentially it is an all in one product. I would recommended trying this out before buying if you are not all that into cream to powder formulas and let it sit for awhile. I think you may be pleasantly surprised.
Liked it, a little heavy with not a lot of coverage?
I usually use Bare Minerals, but I wanted to try this for a heavier coverage. I have acne prone skin, so I was worried that this would break me out, but it didn't. It's a little weird though, because it feels a bit heavy on the skin, but I had to pack it on to get heavy coverage. It's good when my skin is clear, so I use it then, but when I'm having dry days I stay away from it. I liked it, but it gets a bit cakey after a while. I'll still use it, but I probably wouldn't buy again.
