Our verdict

A light pressed foundation that controls shine and blurs pores, with a mirror compact for touch-ups away from home. Coverage tops out at medium, so heavy discoloration needs a concealer.

Overview

A commuter who touches up on the go gets a pressed powder foundation here, patted on with the included applicator for sheer to medium coverage, a soft-focus finish and controlled shine through the day.

Shine control in a compact with its own mirror and applicator makes midday fixes simple. Coverage stays on the lighter side, and dry patches can show through any powder.

Who it's for

Oily or combination skin and long days out of the house suit this compact most. People who want full coverage for blemishes should pair it with concealer or choose a liquid.

Pros and cons

  • Mirror and applicator in compact
  • Oil free and paraben free
Cons

Performance notes

Pressed pigments absorb oil as they sit on skin, which is what holds shine down. Patting rather than sweeping lays down more coverage without a cakey edge.
