The finish is beautiful.
I discovered this powder on YouTube when it was compared to Make Up Forever's HD powder. The makeup guru in the video recommended the ELF powder over the MUF and I heartily agree. The MUF powder is $35 or so whereas the ELF brand contains the same amount of product and costs $6!!. In my opinion, both products perform the exact same way. I like the fact that the ELF powder is sheer and adds no color to my base makeup. It blends in seamlessly and helps my makeup last all day. The ELF product contains powdered silicone and silica and causes no irritation to my sensitive skin. I use an oil control toner, a matte sunscreen and a mattifying primer, which helps to control shine. The ELF powder sets my makeup beautifully, providing a soft focus finish that looks really natural. I only wish that it came in a pressed form, which would be more handy for touch ups. I used to use Urban Decay's Naked loose powder, which is $34 and contains even less product than the MUF. The UD powder is tinted however. And while I still use it occasionally, I recently purchased two ELF HD powders on Amazon because I am truly impressed with the product. And like I've said, there's a lot of product in the ELF container, which makes it doubly economical. I would swear that the MUF and ELF powders have exactly the same ingredients. Both leave my face soft and smooth. I use the ELF powder over Armani Luminous foundation or Bare Minerals Bare Skin and it provides a flawless finish. Tinted powder changes the color of my base makeup somewhat, which I don't always want. I only use the remaining UD powder when I'm going out at night (I have to use it up, it was expensive!). I also use the ELF setting spray, which I like a lot. Like it promises, the ELF powder doesn't sink into fine lines. It isn't quite a matte finish, however. But with the other products I use, it seems to help control most of the oiliness that breaks through by the end of the day. I can always use blotting papers if necessary. I keep some of the powder in my makeup bag for touch ups. I also like the ELF lip exfoiliator, which works really well and contains sugar granules. I purchased the ELF powder on Amazon because my local Target was out of stock. Thankfully, the Amazon Prime price was the same as Target with free shipping too. On the ELF website, they charge $6 or $7 for shipping unless you spend more than $25 (and I didn't need anything else) so Amazon had the best price. All in all, I really like this product and like the makeup guru whose review I saw, I heartily recommend it.

Amazing setting powder
This powder is Amazing! It acts as a great setting powder and not too heavy, the texture is extremely fine. I'm in my 40s and, it isn't cakey and doesn't settle in my wrinkles. Definitely will buy again!

Happy with this product.
It has a slight glittery quality. However, it’s an affordable option and serves as an adequate powder. The glitter is not very noticeable unless there is a flash for photos or you are in bright sunlight. The powder feels very light on and provides a very pretty finish, glitter and all. You really don’t need to use much. I do wish it lasted a bit longer though. I noticed that I would have to retouch after a few hours but it is small a portable enough. Overall, I’m happy with this product.

Perfect Powder!
This powder is AMAZING. Performs like a high-end powder without all the $$$. It is so silky smooth and lightweight, and keeps the oil on my face to a minimum and makes my makeup LAST. It’s also acne safe, with no talc in it (my skin breaks out if I use anything with talc). However, I’m only giving this 4 stars because if you put on just a little too much, the flashback is a tad bit crazy. What I do is take a damp sponge, dip it into the powder, then tap it on the back of my wrist to get any excess powder off. GET THIS POWDER ASAP!!

I loved and would recommend this item
I would consider myself an average makeup user, and I like to experiment with new products. This purchase is perfect for someone who applies liquid foundation. I would recommend this item for easy application, blends nicely, and long lasting wear. The e.l.f. Studio high definition powder is best suited for applying after all of your liquid cosmetics. When I apply with other powder foundation the color lightens to a shade that no longer matches my skin tone. However, when applied after liquid makeup it sets for all day wear. I would recommend the translucent shade, because the white color fades away. However, if used with mineral powder the translucent powder may change the color by mixing pigments and tinted to a lighter shade than your own. Although, used with liquid powder it lasts all day, and very minimal touch ups are needed.This item is great with humidity, since the powder soaks up sweat and doesn’t allow the liquid to run. However, if you know you sweat often, you may need to reapply more often than. The brush will pick up some of the liquid foundation and turn it a orangish shade. This can be fixed by opting for a brush to apply the translucent powder. It leaves a radiating glow and not an oily shine. The powder blends away my forehead lines, which masks away my flaws. This purchase would be great for any age, and would beautify any imperfections and leave it radiant. It is great for fading out wrinkles, which works well for reducing the look of aging. The powder radiates and reduces redness as well, which would be a benefit for acne prone skin.I have dry and combination skin, so I use liquid products to smooth out the dry creases. However, someone with oily skin could easily use it daily as is. It is great for shine reducing and giving a radiate, but matte finish. The powder would be great to use for combination, oily, and dry skin. Since I need moisture everyday, this item would be great for daily use. As it is so small it is easy to throw in my bag and take it traveling or on the go. If you have only a few daily makeup items, you should make this one of them. I would buy this product again and recommend to everyone.
