Jane IredalePurepressed Base Mineral Powder Refill, Warm Sienna, .35 Ounce

I have used this product for the last 4 years - I find by using the correct brush, and applying correctly, the foundation stays in place all day and rarely needs replenishing. It washes off negating the need for cleanser, I do not need to change the colour of the product through the seasons - still looks fine even with suntan!

Endlich ein Puder, welches super Pickelchen, Rötungen, Augenringe etc. abdeckt. Habe mir direkt mehrere Farbnuancen bestellt: Einen helleren Ton zum grundieren und abdecken meiner "Problemzonen" und einen dunkleren nutze ich anschließend wie einen Bronzer. Meine Mutter (73) habe ich auch schon damit geschminkt. Sie hat alterbedingt rote Äderchen auf den Wangen. Sie schminkt sich gar nicht gerne und mit dicker Foundation fühlt sie sich unwohl. Zu unserer Überraschung deckt dieses Puder sogar das wirklich prima ab.Einen Stern Punkteabzug gibt es dafür, dass ich immer mal wieder nachpudern muss, damit ich nicht glänze. Wobei das vermutlich ein individuelles Problem ist - ich habe einfach eine schnell fettende Haut :-/

A clean coverage and easy to apply with a wet cotton round.

I have no complaints about the product which I had bought before from the manufacturer. I received it packaged in a thin paper bag. Of course the foundation cracked. I made the foolish mistake of decided to avoid the hassle of a return -- especially when none of the questions asked would clarify why I was reyruning it. Of, course, the crack became of crumble and it has made it difficult to use the product.One doesn't need a PhD to know that it should have been sent with padding that would have avoided damage.

I'm in my 50s and have been using this pressed powder for more than 20 years. Great color match, doesn't irritate my skin, and covers up redness and blotchiness. Clearly I'm a fan.However, they've recently changed their packaging and the last two refills I received DID NOT INCLUDE AN APPLICATOR PAD! Seriously? I've tried using a foam sponge and, while I like the results, the sponge is too thick to fit in the compact. Not a problem if it is sitting in my drawer, but useless when traveling or tucking into a purse for an evening out. I'm currently using round disposable cotton pads, which tear apart after a couple days and need to be thrown away. To make matters worse, the cotton pads absorb a bunch of the pressed powder, which is then lost when the pad gets thrown out. This product waste is significant - the current refill that I'm using hasn't lasted nearly as long as the older ones supplied with the fabric pad.PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE bring back the applicator pad. Or at least tell me where I can buy a package of them so I don't have to continue using these ridiculous disposable ones. Otherwise, heaven forbid, you will be sending a middle aged woman on a humiliating journey to some department store makeup counter in the hopes of finding an alternative powder/base.
