I'm somewhat new to makeup and am needing to expand my collection. After reading rave reviews, I bought this product on a whim, and I have 0 doubts about it. I have dry skin and there is no "cakiness" or creasing anywhere on my face, even after a long day. I never have to touch it up, which is a huge bonus. I do not use the powder puff provided, instead I opt for my go-to fluffy powder brush from ELF. The powder itself has a sickly sweet smell, nothing unpleasant, but if you are strongly sensitive to scents I would advise away from it. After being put on the face, though, the smell vanishes. Great investment, I absolutely will buy this again.
