My experience with Faces Sheer Radiance Pressed Powder:

This is my first purchase from Faces on the recommendation of a friend. I was looking for a Compaq which is not too heavy and doesn’t give a cakey look. I have a combination skin without any pore issues so I cant really judge on the prevention of pore clogging claim. The name of the product Sheer Radiance Pressed Powder raised a lot of expectation. It comes in a black case with an effective puff and mirror inside. It is perfect for everyday use as it doesn’t give cakey appearance. It is light and blends easily with the skin. The powder didn’t give any artificial look which is very impressive. It lightens my skintone but the brightening effect didn’t last long and I have to reapply it after 3 hours or so.
Another flaw in this product is that it doesn’t have SPF which is nowadays available in most of the brands. My final verdict would be that it is a decent product, perfect to use during daytime.
