Maybelline clear smooth all-in-one powder

I haven't been impressed with a powder the way I have been impressed with this one. I like the look and feel of the powder. I used this powder with a bb cream when I am in a hurry and that works extremely well. I will always have stock of this!

Great Product, blends nicely perfect for oily skin. Although the packaging IS lacking, I find it hard to open!

This was such a great find one month that I was broke! I was nicely surprised at the quality of this face powder for how cheap it was! It gave such even great cover and hid every imperfection I had! And the color match was great.
Share this with a few of my friends that bought it and were very happy!
I also loved it's cute little pink container and it was great for keeping in my handbag cause I don't like to carry my expensive clinique in my bag cause iv had one brake.
Oh and it even had a nice spf25

I absolutely love this product. It works great on my combination skin and I didn't have to touch up as often as I have with other powders. It gives my skin a smooth and matte finish. Best of all the price doesn't break the bank. The compact is super cute. Being a Durban girl the fact that it has an SPF is a super bonus.

I got this powder as a sample from one of my favourite magazines. I must say, I am sold since I have heard horrific stories of powder foundations (drying up skin). This product is great for the summer as it provides everything that the skin needs. It mattifies, evens, perfects tone with a decent amount of SPF 25.

I have been contemplating on using powder since I have oily skin myself and this product came at the right time. It comes with a free sponge applicator though it is best to use a powder brush. A brush gives it a luminous finish that lasts all day - no touch ups needed.

The price is very reasonable and can be found at any of your local cosmetics shop. The pink packaging adds a touch of girly. The size is great for sisters for are up for the party season as it fits inside a clutch bag.

DISCLAIMER: I'm not a fan of powder foundations

I don't tend to have nice things to say about powder foundations. Not because they are ineffective any way but rather because they have a tendency to appear too "cakey" on the skin.

Powders are useful, however, for instances when you wish to blot your too oily skin and to also create an even and mattified texture to the skin. The Maybelline Clear Smooth All-in-One Powder prooved to be good for that.

It comes in a compact rectangular shape convenient enough to pop in your purse or clutch. The built-in mirror and complimentary sponge add of course to the practicality and positive usability of the product.

A definite must-have for a painless and non time consuming powder application.

I wear powder every single day - I actually don't feel made up unless I've set my makeup with a little dusting of powder, even in winter.

I have tried SO many different powders and am so fussy with what I like. But this powder is by far the best I've used in comparison to the price! My favourite powder is most definitely the Estee Lauder compact but at over R400 a pop it's not in my makeup collection anymore, as I just go through it too fast to make it worth the money.

I've been using different Revlon powders (the Photo Ready, the Naked Skin and the Photo Ready powder foundation), Essence powder, Loreal, Rimmel, Yardley etc etc.

The price of this powder is more than that of the Essence powder (what could be cheaper than Essence anyway haha) but cheaper than any of the other powders I've tried and it is AMAZING!

The quality is fantastic and it works so so well! I barely need to touch it up at all during the day and my skin can still glow through the matt-ness, rather than making me look dry and cakey!!!

I am not particularly happy about this product. I bought it a week ago after I had an acne outbreak which left spots all over my face. My normal foundation was unable to cover my spots so I needed a concealer. After reading the back of this all in one powder which stated that it conceals, mattifies, brightens, evens skin tone and contains SPF 15, I decided to purchase it. It retailed for R79.95 at clicks and I wish I could return it because it doesn't seem to be doing a fine job of concealing my spots. The positives I have seen are a brighter skin tone, mattified skin and the SPF- no concealing. I truly am disappointed.

A clear winner! A lovely compact with mirror complete with silicone sponge! Applied early in morning and lasted through till 4 pm.it controls shine, Smoothes, evens and mattifies, brightens and perfects tone ! Complete with SPF 25! Toffee was a perfect match for me and is the perfect handbag or travel companion! Superb pricing will make this product very popular!

I'm not that clued up on pressed powder foundations as I have only recently started using them. To be honest I wasn't quite sure what they were useful for. That is until the heat wave that recently hit Cape Town. No matter what I did my face was shiny within minutes of reapplying my foundation. So I decided to give this product a bash.
The packaging is so cute and I'm totally taken by the pretty pastel pink case. The silicone sponge gathers powder perfectly and doesn't smudge your make-up. I patted it onto my T-Zone when needed, which wasn't often, as this product lasts. The mirror means I can also touch up my make-up while out and about. I chose the lightest shade as I'm pale, but there are multiple shades available. The price is also fantastic for such a great product. All in all I'm suitably impressed.

I don't usually use Maybelline makeup, but this time I needed to try the brand to see whether or not I've been missing out.

Maybelline boasts about this powder being an all-in-one powder. They say it, controls shine, conceals flaws, smooths, evens, mattifies, brightens, perfects tone and has SPF15.
The ONLY thing I agree on is that it has SPF15!

This product did not work for me unfortunately, as I ended up looking like a corpse with pale skin (even though the colour block stated that it was a certain tone!)

My skin has not been in a great condition of late, this including blotchy skin. The Maybelline powder did not cover this, as they said it would.

However, the product felt good on my skin, and it did not feel as though I was wearing anything, but it flaked my skin.

I agree that it controls shine, which is a great thing, but personally it's not for me.

It isn't badly priced and the packaging is really pretty. The mirror and sponge are sized perfectly. It is very compact, so when using a pretty cocktail bag, your Maybelline powder will fit.

I feel this powder needs to be tested on your skin, as all skin types vary, and what may look good on me, may not look good on you, and vice-versa.

So if you are familiar with the Maybelline brand, or looking for a new type of powder, perhaps try this. It may work wonders for you, and your skin.
