Don't get me wrong, I am an avid liquid foundation user, but when you're in a hurry, sometimes a quick sweep of powder foundation is all you need. I have never really been a fan of powder foundations. I always feel like it never covers enough and I may as well wear no makeup at all if it's not full coverage. But, being a student, I don't have the time needed to create a full face. A few swipes of this does the trick to help conceal imperfections and fix discoloration. Another reason I'm not a fan of powder foundations is because of my horribly dry skin. But, this one almost feels like a cream. It is so soft and silky and glides so smoothly on the skin. For a powder, it actually has a nice amount of coverage. The kickback (excess powder) on this is INSANE. It actually gets all over the place. The first time I used this I pretty much had to change shirts because it got everywhere. If you place a towel over your chest while applying, this can be easily avoided. The shade range on this product is a bit dreary. There is only 3 shades. Although since it is powder and will somewhat self-adjust, the range should be a bit larger than only 3 shades. This product is ideal for all skin textures and types. It's especially ideal for the person on the go!
