Doesn't cause breakouts

Pros:

good for oily/combinaiton skin
controls fine
good for acne

Cons:

light coverage if worn alone
limited colors available

I have mild acne and combination skin. I tend to get shiny not long after apply makeup. I use this powder with the Almay Clear Complexion foundation and apply it with a brush. It last all day with maybe 1 touch up to tone down shine. I'm not sure it helped with breakouts but I know it didn't cause them.

Pros:

prevents shine!
doesn't cause breakouts
small and easy to slip into your purse
good deal
not messy

Cons:

can look cakey
applicator pad is unhelpful (I use a powder brush instead)

This is a nice powder. I wear it alone or sometimes with concealer to even out my skin a little, but I'm sure it can be worn with foundation and other makeup. It really helps prevent shine! I reappy it during the day, but it can look cakey if you aren't careful.

Pros:

-small and portable
-gives an even, smooth appearance
-fragrance free
-easy to apply
-reduces appearance of oily skin
-comfortable to wear
-does not clog pores
-contains 0.6% salicylic acid to help with breakouts

Cons:

-does not fully disguise large blemishes
-not a good idea to use the applicator pad included with product

i love this product! almay clear complexion cosmetics focus on providing light coverage without worsening skin conditions. this powder may not fully cover larger pimples but it is worth it in the long term as the salicylic acid really does help prevent future breakouts. i recommend it to anyone with light to moderate acne who is wishing for a smoother and calmer skin appearance.
