The ONLY Choice for Foundation
Date:December 10, 2012
"Ever since I discovered this type of foundation, there is no going back to any other kind again. It looks so natural and really evens out your skin tone to give you a healthy glow. You don't have to put much on for it to make your skin look great. I'd recommend going one shade darker than your skin tone for the most effective blend."

"I've tried all the pressed mineral makeup out there - Pur Minerals, BareMinerals, Larenim & Avon. I am truly impressed with this makeup. Its better than the rest & is the cheapest. I was blown away with the results! If you are in doubt try it, I guarantee you'll love it!"

"This product has very good coverage without caking on my face. I had my daughter try it and she loved it too. The color is very true to our skin tone."

Waste of money.
Date:November 29, 2012
"I recently purchased this item and as much as I wanted to like, I just couldn't. A big disappointment. I went by ratings and that was a mistake. This makeup is some of the worst that I have ever used and does NOT GIVE YOU MEDIUM COVERAGE. Actually, it doesn't give you any coverage and its obvious that your wearing makeup. Don't waste your money. ALSO! This foundation is glittery! Just awful."

Great product! A must have for your makeup bag!
Date:November 4, 2012
"I was looking for a nice, but AFFORDABLE mineral powder foundation & I have always liked Avon makeup products, plus it was on sale so I gave it a try. I first tried it in the color "Nutmeg" not a good match for me, so on to the next color "Earth" a better color choice for me. It has a suble sheen to it, making the skin glow! And I like the packaging/compact except mine came with a broken latch & I have to use a rubberband to keep it closed, total bummer. The one complaint I have is with the pictures/discriptions in the catalog & online are not acurate & need a better way to understand the color gradiations from light to dark, perhaps with numbers. All in all still a great product."

Great Makeup
Date:September 26, 2012
"I love this makeup!!! The only thing I would really suggest is to make sure that the color is right for you. I usually have to buy the lightest color makeup in the other Avon Powder Foundations, but with this...I got the lightest one and looked like a ghost. Thankfully, I had some of the loose Smooth Minerals Foundation that was a little darker and that seemed to help."

Easy application, faster than liquid.
Date:September 25, 2012
"This is so much better than liquid! It took me 2 mins. to apply. The coverage is great. I recommend you choose a darker shade than you would normally get because I am fair and got the Nude and it made me look very pale."

So so
Date:September 3, 2012
"This is so so for me. My tip is to use lightly otherwise it feels very heavy on your skin. I didn't like the way it made its way into every line on my face especially around my eyes, which I have never had happen with a powder before. I like it for those days when I am in a hurry."

Great stuff, great price
Date:September 1, 2012
"This has replaced my former liquid foundation and loose powder combo. It's got a great texture, and the nude color is perfect for me. I like the fact that it is natural coverage, it does cover but not in a masky way. I put in on with a brush all over, and even use it as concealer but do that with the pad they give you to,get closer around the eyes. My sister, who recommended this to me, told me she didn't even use concealer anymore, only this. We do both have fair skin and dark circles, so I was skeptical, but it works!
Love it, on my fifth compact. And such a great price!"

best make up ever
Date:August 20, 2012
"This is the only foundation I will wear. I always get compliments on the clarity of my skin when I wear this, and hope they never change the formula in this. I will buy this as long as they sell it. It is really light, and has never caused a break out. Highly recommend this foundation for those who want a medium coverage foundation."

Could NOT Live Without!
Date:July 30, 2012
"I have been using this pressed powder for years and I honestly would not know what to do with my face if I didn't have this. I am 20 and still have some blemish problems and this makeup covers everything wonderfully. It's very easy to decide whether to make your coverage light or heavy, also. It looks flawless when used over a liquid foundation!"

"I love the powder in every way but one ,,, it doesnt go on my face smoothly. next time im gonna try the loose powder to see if that works better. I still love this product, it is true to color and has a bit of shimmer to it so your face doesnt look so dry. if you are over 40 , you know what i mean."
