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).

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.

Good, but not Physician's Formula's best
Try their BB Powder instead. That one is even better. Neither the BB Powder of Mineral Wear breaks me out though, so that's a good thing. The BB one has much better coverage and is less drying though. Physician's Formula has the best powders in the drugstore price range. Forget expensive department store products. PF has you covered :)

I totally agree with you the bb powder my absolute go to,I can even sleep in it and NO BREAK OUTS!!!!I really noticed a huge difference when I switched to the physicians formula bb powder from regular liquid foundation,way less breakouts.Highly recommend this and the coverage is awesome close to a foundation. P.s.I use a sponge that brush is garbage.

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.

Pros:

Covers mild acne

Cons:

Can get a wee bit shiny during the day which is weird considering it's a powder

I use this almost daily and even though my acne is gone now i had a few zits before and it covered them. I do have a sensitivity to some makeup because I can't use MAC products or some other ones but I have never had a reaction to this one. You should take it with you during the day though as it seems to slide off after a few hours and can make your skin shiny so you will need to reapply
