Review on Maybelline New York Shine Free Oil-Control Loose Powder, Medium, 0.7 oz.: Your Solution for a Shine-Free, Oil-Controlled Finish by Kimberly King

I can't live without this powder. I have VERY oily skin. I've tried many face powders and always choose this one. I use it as a base over concealer. I prefer light coverage so don't expect it to cover up many imperfections or breakouts. I use blotting paper throughout the day. If you have very oily skin it won't give you a matte finish all day. But I flare easily and have a skin tone that's hard to beat. It has never broken me and looks very natural. I can use a medium shade most of the year and sometimes mix it with a lighter one if I'm very pale in winter. It is transparent enough to blend very well, even if it is too light or too dark. I have fairly fair skin but I have an olive skin tone so I can use medium.
