What the gurus are saying

This powder earns consistent praise for mattifying without looking powdery or killing a natural glow. One creator calls it her holy grail and favorite mattifying powder on the market, carrying it everywhere and repurchasing repeatedly at just four or five dollars. Another has seen it loved widely among people she knows. The key for most situations: press it lightly into the T-zone where oil tends to build, rather than sweeping it all over, to keep shine controlled without tipping into a flat look.

"Mine is well loved, I ended up carrying it around in a Ziploc bag because that's how much I loved it, I lost the lid and the text is all rubbed off. You guys already know how I feel about this powder if you watch my videos. It's crazy, the price is just four or five dollars, it's really affordable."
