Customer Reviews of MAKE UP FOR EVER HD Microfinish Powder

Customer Review: Nice product, but they massively rip you off
Summary: 3 Stars

MUFE HD Microfinish Powder is composed of 100% silica microspheres. The powder is white in appearance, but can be buffed to near transparency due to the size of the particles.

This product has its good points as well as its bad. It is not for everyone, especially those with dry skin. If used on dry skin, it can accentuate patches and flakes, and possibly make skin condition worsen. If used in too high a concentration, it will NOT be transparent, but will rather lighten the skin tone a bit. The powder IS white - it doesn't magically become clear when applied. However, in small quantities, the color isn't visible. The product becomes airborne fairly easily, so apply with caution if you aren't keen on inhaling makeup.

That said, this is an amazing for those with oily skin. It really does hold off shine for considerably longer than other products. It makes a good setting powder over liquid foundation, and minimizes the appearance of pores and other skin blemishes in photographs. When used on bare skin, it minimizes the appearance on fine lines. Since this product is best used in small quantities, a little bit goes a long way. It leaves skin feeling INCREDIBLY soft - almost like velvet - and when buffed in properly, is practically invisible.

But, in my honest opinion, $[...] is still an absurd amount to pay for this product. Yes, the benefits are incredible for oily skin, even in the summer, but you can get 100% silica microspheres from any mineral makeup ingredient provider (TKB Trading, Coastal Scents, etc.) for about $3 or $4 an OUNCE - this product sells at the equivalent of over $85 an ounce (which is kindof ridiculous). The packaging from those suppliers isn't as fancy (or practical, for that matter) as MUFE's, but for that price, I'd recommend it to anyone who is curious about MUFE HD Powder but not quite ready to make a $[...] commitment to something they've never tried.
