When I use this product it gives me a slight grey look, im not sure why. I use a matte powder over to set and it stays on all day, however the brush is quite rough and troubles my skin a lot during the hot days, which leaves uneven coverage

I really like this mineral powder foundation because it produces a sheer, lightweight but buildable coverage. I like that it is made with 100% micro minerals that won’t clog my pores and contains no skin irritants. I usually use this as a powder over my tinted moisturiser or BB cream, and on night outs to keep my skin matte on top of liquid foundation. I like that this powder, if applied correctly and with the correct brush, gives your skin a matte look without making it look powdery. I would not be able to tell whether it has improved the condition of my skin because I usually use this product in conjunction with another product, but I definitely can say that this product is very gentle and doesn’t irritate my sensitive skin.

Although I like the product a lot, the brush that it comes with is too small for your face and the bristles are too harsh and prickly on the skin. I would recommend getting a good quality kabuki brush for this product if you want to be able to use this product to its full potential. Another disadvantage to this product is that like any other loose powder product, it can get quite messy on-the-go, especially if you can’t get the container upright at all times. So it’s not very travel friendly.
