This has been my go to powder foundation for years. It can be applied lightly for sheer coverage or built up to full, has never irritated my extremely sensitive skin and NW10 is the perfectly shade for my fair skin. I have combo-dry skin and I prep well with moisturizer and the Make Up Forever Skin Booster, apply concealer if needed and then use a powder brush to apply whatever level of coverage I want. I always finish with setting spray which takes away the powdery look, melts everything into my skin and makes it last all day. I think any skin type can wear it but I do suggest that those with dry skin prep well beforehand with moisturizer. Highly recommended!

Before I even had the time to write a fabulous review on the MAC Blot Powder Pressed, it has unknowingly panned out on me! I didn’t expect it… I only use it erm, every single time I apply makeup… Heh heh.
Play street fighter2. I tried my hardest to like loose powder; I’ve tried the range from expensive ones like NARS to drugstore ones like e.l.f. I could never deal with the hassle of being very careful not to get the powder all over the place when I open the cover, take product, close the cover, and the mess of every step of the way.
Loose powders are also not very travel-friendly. You should see how much trouble I went through to transfer the NARS Loose Powder just so that I don’t have to lug a huge container that threatens to spill its contents at each tilt.
Oilies begone with the MAC Blot Powder Pressed? Hmmm, I guess if you have oily/combination skin, then it will keep oil at bay. But I have oily skin, and in the typical hot and humid Singapore weather, the oilies usually start to show probably after 5 hours. For shine to show only after 5 hours means a lot for my oily skin already! If I didn’t use the MAC Blot Powder to set liquid foundation, my face would look greasy in half the time.
Then again, it really depends on what primer and foundation I have under the MAC Blot Powder Pressed. If I use Bourjois Flower Perfection Foundation which dries matte (and smells wonderful), my face makeup would stay on at least a few hours longer than if I had the Lancome Blanc Miracle Foundation, which has more of a hydrating formula.

I use the MAC blot powder over every single foundation to absorb oil and set makeup.
Loose powders, even when I apply them with a brush, tend to feel heavier on the skin. NARS definitely feels heavy, and the e.l.f loose powder oxidizes badly on my skin.
Just a random thought: If I pair the e.l.f loose powder with Revlon Colorstay Foundation in Sand Beige, I'd look like a very Annoyed Orange! HAHAHA!!
