The coverage is nearly medium, but a bit dry - so it really accentuated the few dry flakey spots I had. This powder would be best for those with oily skin looking for a quick blot & touchup. Otherwise, it is not very useful. It wore off completely in about 2 hours (& I use oil-mattifying makeup primer & Revlon Colorstay, or Maybelline's Superstay, liquid foundation underneath.)If you're looking for a smooth finish pressed powder (at reasonable drugstore prices), check out the Covergirl+Olay pressed powder w/their smooth glide serum. It fills in large pores, feels amazing on, & actually stays on for several hours for the same price!Good for shine control and smoothing out of normal skin discoloration (I don't seek/need color help, and this is the only "cosmetic" I use). The price continues to rise, so that is a worry, as is the likelihood that it will be discontinued.Can't find it anymore in stores, but it's the best powder ever. I've used everything from Chanel, Yves Saint Laurent, Lacome, Laura Mercier, Nars, you name it, I've had it. This, and Rimmel stay matte, are far superior to all of the above. Trust me, I've been at this quest for 40 plus yearsI love it because I like a light coverageThe price is some what higher than I paid in the past but is long lastingps pretty good coverageThe only downside to this product was this one seemed more like a powder where the ones in the past I purchased were more creamy. I am still happy with the product though.I am so happy I found this product. Smooth going on and makes my skin look great. The creamy natural is a great match for my skin tone. I use this product with a liquid foundation and it provides natural coverage without being caked on. Would highly recommend.I like how the powder stays on and covers up however its hard to determine what color is right for your complexion with this product.It broke during the shipping process. Even with the bubble wrap the compacts should have been wrapped individually.I will not return them that's why I give 3 stars. It is my favorite powder foundation and I can't find it in my city.
