I guess this is the first product for which I will be using that term HG. Yes, this is my "holy grail" face base/powder. This is just the perfect all-rounder product. There are so many ways it can be used :
  • Use with a large powder brush to get a light-medium coverage over your foundation.
  • Use a small brush to tap it over your under-eye concealer to set is perfectly and give the under-eyes a little more coverage and brightness.
  • One of the best setting-powders I have used.
  • Wet your beauty blender/or the sponge provided (which is pretty good quality as well) and simply use it as a medium-high coverage foundation.

I have never experienced dryness on my skin after using this alone on top of a moisturizer. It never caked even after reapplying it during touch-ups. This is something I carry in my bag all the time for the extra/emergency concealing and touch-ups. Another plus, hides zits perfectly!!

 The only low in this lovely lovely product is that it hits pan pretty quickly and a single brush stroke drizzles loose a lot of powder.
I will surely repurchase this one!!xx
