I love this product.
I went to an Avon party held at a friend's house and it was recommended as a must buy by the Avon representative. I was a little sceptical but bought it anyway. I am fair skinned and use Avon's anew moisturiser as a base and use the pressed powder on top of this, it appears to smooth those little creases and crinkles that creep up on us mature ladies!
I will definitely be repeating the order. A great product.

This pressed powder is good to use on bare skin needing a matte finish and light coverage. It can be used like a ' loose powder' with a large makeup brush to set foundation. It is good for ' touch ups' and fuller coverage using the puff provided.

Great matte finish

I use this every day in 'fair' to mattify my t-zone throughout the day. It's the perfect shade for my pale skin. It is a really light texture and never looks cakey - it leaves me matte but doesn't hide my natural skin glow. This is the best powder I've used for its light finish and I buy it again and again. The black mirrored compact is stylish and convenient. I use the pad that comes with it, but you get a different effect with a brush, so experiment and see which you prefer!

Feels natural!

I apply this powder with a brush (rather than the pad it comes with). It sets my makeup and evens out my skin tone while absorbing any shiny spots throughout the day. I can't even feel that I'm wearing it and it doesn't clog pores. I would recommend getting the avon makeup brush set that's on offer right now and using the big blusher brush as a powder brush. it works very well!

Good Affordable Compact

This is a very good quality everyday powder compact. I use this after I've applied my foundation and it gives me a nice all round complexion/look and gets rid of the glow that some foundations can leave you with after applying.
The powder puff that comes with this compact is a bit naff, so I discarded that to the bin, and I've started using an all over face brush which does a good job.
Doesn't feel cloggy or cheap and helps to keep skin looking great.

Dissapointed

Makes my skin glow but the bad thing about this product is that it makes my face look caked on and on my forhead a bit too much.

Best compact, EVER

I love love love this compact, Great shade (I bought the fair) and it matched my skin tone exactly. I find most face compacts tend to dry out my skin but this is totally different. My skin feels smooth all day and the coverage is excellent. I have recommended to all my friends and they love it too!

More shades please!

I bought this in light-medium as it was the only shade available. It is a nice powder if applied very lightly but the shade is a little dark for my skin (Foundation shade cream or natural beige).
Would love this to be available in a translucent shade.

Good Product

Goes on smooth and can be built up for a little bit more coverage. I find that if its just dusted over a foundation to set the face it gives a lovely matt finish and does not cake on the skin. Would buy again and recommend. I am very pale and the ivory is fine for me.
