Luminous Pressed Powder

“A-Grade Pressed Powder

Great product. I am critical of pressed powders making my face look too ‘powdery’ or ‘made-up.’ I was pleased to find one that is more natural looking and that is also organic. Powder has a slight iridescent glitter in compact which seemed a bit much at first sight, but once on face it blended nicely and was barely visible. My skin is fair-medium. I use the medium color even in winter to create a little more color on my face. But if the medium color works for my fair-medium skin even in winter, I am guessing the light color is very very pale. Sponge provided is a bit thin, but seems to work well and can always be replaced.

“My very favorite face powder

This is my favorite pressed powder. I’m not a big makeup person (I don’t use foundation), but I always use powder, and this is my favorite one. The powder is sheer and doesn’t give that much color (which is what I prefer) but there is the slightest sparkle (not disco-ball, but great for that light luminous look) and this is really flattering. I also love that the compact can be refilled. I don’t know what’s up with the picture of the powder – there’s no bottom compartment – but the case is a nice, black matte metal, so it will last through many refills. I would definitely buy this product again, and recommend it!

“Great for my sensitive skin!

I love this powder! It has an incredibly subtle light-catching quality. The color vanishes well into my skin, so it wears beautifully. I use it every day, instead of loose powder, to balance out my skin tone. I can use it just over lotion.

“Love this powder...

I love this pressed powder. I listened to what they said about going a shade darker. I have fair/light skin and went with the medium. It is a perfect color on me. I dust some on with a brush to set my makeup, then pop it in my purse for touch-ups later in the day. It gives a subtle glow and I love it over top of Living Nature’s Illuminating Tint as well. It’s also nice putting things on my face that aren’t full of toxic chemicals. This one is a buy-again for sure.

“Beautiful finish but pore clogging

I like how this powder looked applied. UNfortunately though it gave me little bumps on my cheeks. I assume it is the talc that was cloggin my pores. I stopped using it and the bumps disappeared.
