I don't usually use fixing powders as I have dry skin, so I initially bought this product before going to Thailand on honeymoon in order to help combat the effects of the intense humidity there. I was pleasantly surprised by how effective it was when it came to setting my makeup and keeping my face looking matte during my travels.

When I have used it for other occasions (e.g. baking undereye concealer, etc) it has worked effectively for me as I have pale/light skin, however, I have found that it makes dry areas even dryer, especially in the colder months. For that reason, I avoid using it in winter and prefer to use it in summer.

Pros:
- Lightweight and works well on pale skin
- Great for travelling
- Affordable

Cons:
- Makes dry skin dryer
- Container is messy
- May not appear translucent on warmer/darker skin tones
