A Little Disappointing

December 28, 2011
By Hanie
from Flagstaff, AZ
"I love CoverGirl's liquid foundation, but the clean pressed powder does nothing good for my skin. I use the lightest shade they offer and it still makes me look very orange and does not mix well at all with the foundation."

By tilani88
from louisville, ky
"the packaging is small which i like (not the easiest to open)the make up is good. you have to apply it to the very edge of your face (like in your hairline) or its obvious. i reccomend using a face lotion on b4 applying or it flakes-doesnt look good."

horrible.

October 3, 2011
By SHS2013
from Perry,Maine
"I bought this to use as a finish with the liquid coverup, it makes it look worse, very hard to blend in my face.. and it shows the powder effect on my face.. doesn't coverup no matter how much i use! Your better off to use Maybelline mineral powder."

I am sorry you did not like the look you got with this powder. If you prefer a mineral powder you may want to try the CoverGirl TRUblend Minerals Loose Powder. It is a light, finely milled, loose powder that is enriched with natural minerals. Hope you give it a try.

"I've tried a couple different pressed powders but I always come back to this one! Controls my oily skin and doesn't feel cakey. It's very light. It's definitely my holy grail pressed powder."

Really Works!

August 8, 2011
By MountainHighGirl
from Westminster, CO
"I have really oily skin, so I bought this hoping it would help. And it does! Really controls shine and feels lightweight. My only minor complaint is that it's a tad too dark for my very fair skin."

Compact doesn't stay closed.

July 22, 2011
By lovecg68
from carlisle,pa
"I love the 50th anniversary compact, and the powder itself is pretty good, but the compact doesn't stay closed in my purse. If I take the puff out it does, but that isn't practical."

Great Idea!

July 15, 2011
By charmed13
"I have a really hard time finding the right shade because my skin is so fair. I used the classic Ivory and it matched well but I told my friend about it and she couldn't find the right shade. Over all I am very happy with this product."

THIS WAS BETTER AS FRESH LOOK POWDER!

July 9, 2011
By AndieDodge
from Dayton, OH
"The shades were better when this powder was marketed as Fresh Look powder, and the packaging was by far superior in looks and functionality. CG should have left ALL of their pressed powders alone! Hope they read all these reviews and revert back!"

"Packaging is an epic fail.Color selection is terrible.Tawny is too dark for me but Soft Honey is way too light for me. Covergirl you need to step your game up. I know you have the “Queen Collection” but the “regular” line should cater to me as well."

Better than I remembered!

May 7, 2011
By ARae
from Brooklyn, NY
"I just bought this and I am loving it. I got Ivory for the golden tones, and it blends seamlessly into my NC35ish skin. It's very smooth, and buffs down to a finish that hides my pores and isn't cakey or chalky -just very natural."

oil contol

May 3, 2011
By nonicknamecrestview
from Crestview, Fl.
"Really does help control oil on my very oily skin, however, does tend to turn orangey after a few hrs. My mom has said this about CG products-thought she was just using wrong shade 'til others have said the same."

new packaging is the pits

April 21, 2011
By sannie
from Boston, MA
"I've used this powder loyally for 15 years. However, the new packaging is terrible! The hinges break...the clasp fails, leaving it open inside my purse. I have gone through several already, and I will not purchase any more until they redesign it."

The Best By Far! Thanks CG!!

By Animalluver
from Portage, PA
"I've used CG for as long as I've been wearing makeup. We've had our ups and downs but I've stuck by. This is why! No trouble opening the compact and the powder hides my oily skin. I've had many compliments on my flawless (normally spotty) complexion!"

Great powder!

April 14, 2011
By Gatorcat32
from Orlando, FL
"Really love this powder. You can't beat the price. It gives a really nice finish and covers shine up well. I love this stuff! I don't like the puff it came with, I like to use a powder brush. But I am sure a different puff would work well too."
