A little goes a long way! No scent, easy to use tube and lasts forever, while still being affordable. I have noticed a big difference in my under-eye bags. Goes on sticky, dries in less than 2 minutes. No creasing, no residue.

I used Bare Minerals for foundation as a teenager but recently came back to this old time classic brand as adult for their setting powder. Good for lightweight foundation setting, mattifying oily skin, adding a polished look to creamy products.

As someone with oily skin who does not wear a full face of makeup everyday, this is the perfect “foundation” for me - especially in hotter climates. Smoothes complexion and acts as a strong base for creamy products. I have never broken out after usin...
