This is good powder when used over foundation, and has different ingredients to keep the skin hydrated. Takes away shine from the face to leave a healthy glow. However, when used on its own it does not give much colour and I sometimes think that i may be clogging my pores on my forehead as there always seems to be more bumps on my skin after a day of wearing it. Otherwise, it is a good powder and I really like the packaging, it's classy and has a handy mirror and powder applicator inside. Although I prefer to apply the powder with a brush instead of using the flat applicator.

Was really light on my face from other pressed powders which dry my face out. Worth the price as not too expensive

This product is amazing, i could not live without it. I have oily skin and before i found this product i had to keep touching up my makeup during the day, now i don't. I place it on top of my foundation and it works brilliantly. Highly recommend it.

I adore this powder compact. I just had to write a review! For me, £12 seems quite a lot for pressed powder but after finding out Topshop had discontinued theirs I needed to find more. I had a £5 off voucher which meant I was getting much better value for money. I asked the shop assistant about which colour I should buy and she was very helpful and explained that Translucent gives no coverage so I opted for Fair. I'm so glad I did. First of all, the packaging is lovely. It comes in a sleek black compact with good mirror and hinge mechanism that opens up when you press the button. It looks much more expensive than it is. After having it sit in my bedroom for a couple of months while I used up my other powder, I finally opened it. The powder itself is wonderful. Smooth and velvety and very airy. It is the perfect colour for my skin, fairly pale. It sorts out any shine while evening skin tone and it doesn't make skin look dull. The powder never makes the mirror dirty because the delicate puff sits in between. I usually apply it with my big Bamboo powder brush (as it's so light, it goes on the brush easily and you don't need to use much) but when I'm in a hurry, the puff is just perfect. I never experience any orange smears and it makes my skin look very smooth. The only disadvantage is you don't get a very large amount for your money. However, on my second day of using it I really fell for this powder. I discovered the sticker on the back peels to reveal product information and saw that it contains vitamins and Hyaluronic Acid. It really couldn't get better. It's a must have product and I look forward to buying it again and again!

I have used no7 pressed powder for a few years now but this time its different, really dry shows up fine lines and its like putting talc on your face.I think its changed, not for me anymore.

i bought the translucent powder from this range and found it too be very pale and my skin is already pale however the texture of the powder and the look it gave to my skin was indeed flawless

Despite the bad reviews for the new formula, I have found that it matched my skin tone well, but that may have been due to a Boot's No.7 consultation. Nevertheless - it does its job well.

Don't like the new formula i bought dark as usual and it is a lot darker than the old formula and feels gritty. Please bring old formula back!

Have used this powder for years. Have tried others but always go back to this one. Great for blotting shine, its very fine and never looks "cakey". Also stays soft in the compact and doesn't go hard like some other brands. Would not hesitate to recommend.

Lovely soft look, not to heavy looking. Last for hours
