I love this powder foundation. It is a multitasker (not to be confused with
Milan’s Multicasker Face Powder, which is good too). I purchased this during the summer because I
wanted a powder foundation to offset my oily skin. While the powder is said to be full coverage I
feel it’s more buildable: meaning light up
to medium but not full coverage. I have
used it was a stand-alone powder foundation and as a setting powered on top of
my light or medium coverage liquid foundations.
When used as a powder foundation it lasted about 4
hours before I need to touch up (remember during the summer I am really
oily). If left on its own, the foundation disappeared
on my face by the 6 hour mark.
However, when used as a setting powder on top of a liquid foundation it
lasted about 5-6 hours before I needing a touch up and could go 8 hours before
major oil separation. Being so oily
during the summer this foundation performed about par to my experience. The only other power founding I have used is Bare
minerals. Milani makes it easy to found you shade by
selecting 8 common shades. I will point
out that the shades available are more towards the light/ medium hues. If you are darker then Caramel, you will have
to look else ware. Now that it is fall
it can go much longer on cooler days and when used with liquid
foundations.
