Pros:

Never breaks me out
Easy to apply
Looks smooth

Cons:

If my skin is really dry, the makeup clings to the flakes. Easily fixed by moisturizing though.

Best and only makeup I use. Never once has it broken me out, and it looks great. Just that extra step to making my skin look better.

Pros:

Cons:

-expensive for a drugstore brand

Although not everyone is going to have this side effect, this powder made my whole face red and itchy after one use. I through it out right away.

Doesn't do much at all!
It wears off pretty quickly for combination skin. My face looks shiny less than 2 hours afterwards.

One of my favorite brands of makeup
PF is one of my favorite brands especially their talc free line. This powder is amazing, although not full coverage, it gives me an even skin tone. I have been using this for years on and off and I will always come back and repurchase it.

Pros:

1. not as expensive as other mineral wear make-up.

Cons:

the brush that comes inside the packaging in bad so you'd need to use your own brush

i've been using this product for more than a year and it has never given me any break-out or side effect. would totally recommend this to anyone

This is a great makeup that wont make you break out! It keeps my skin from becoming to oily and it doesn't clog your pores. This is the best makeup i have used so far!

Corrects redness pretty well, kind of drying though!
I have a lot of hyperpigmentation on my skin from recurring acne. This foundation is easy to quickly brush a little on my face to cover up most of the redness, but definitely doesn't cover it perfectly (haven't found a foundation that does that though!). I don't think it causes me to break out, but my skin has been really dry since I've been using it and I think that it is because it absorbs a lot of the oil on the surface of my skin. It definitely makes your face less shiny when you use it but that only lasts like half a day for me, so I reapply part of the way through the day when I'm out in town or busy all day. It's easy and simple, but definitely not perfect, in my opinion. Also, I have been able to find only a limited amount of color options for it, so sometimes it isn't the right shade for my skin (wintertime when I'm indoors a lot).

Not good.
Looks pretty but if you drop it its trash. Not good coverage either.

Great powder when your using the Sephora mineral brush!

Pros:

Absorbs oil
A lot of coverage when using the right brush!
Covers scar when using conceal brush

This powder is great, it pulls the junk out of my skin and when you use the sephora mineral brush with it the coverage is flawless!

Pros:

doesn't cause acne
doesn't irritate acne

Cons:

gets a little greasy after time
you can sometimes see it if you have applied too much

this is basically the only product i trust with me skin. my skin has been a whirlwind lately and trying to cover it up (which i am now not) has been hard. this has been a lifesaver at times though.
