The powder glides smoothly and beautifully onto the skin. A common danger found in powders is that they can appear very dry and ashy on the skin but this isn't the case with this L.A. Girl Pressed Powder. It contains Mineral Oils which leave the skin feeling and looking radiant. The press puff is an added bunus as its texture allows for a silk-like application. Definitely worth the R54.95 price tag!
