I absolutely love this product! I was a shade 10 in the summer and I have regressed down to a shade 4 for the winter. I apply this over light liquid foundation and this look always lasts all day. I have not had a problem with any of the shades I have purchased and I will continue to purchase this product. I am now looking forward to trying tarte's new foundation with this product. :) Would you buy this product again? Yes

I used to buy my foundation at the store but they stopped selling the makeup i liked in my shade. I love this powder 'cause i haven't broken out wearing it yet and they had it in my skin color. I have a very fair complexion and now my neck and face match. I give this a 5 out of 5 stars. Would you buy this product again? Yes

I have rosacea and this powder is a dream! It delivers great coverage and hides my rosacea well. It goes on smooth and lasts through out the day for me. The extra SPF is an added bonus! Would you buy this product again? Yes

Overall, it's just ok. For me, it was a bit drying and didn't seem to last very long. It would probably be great for touch-ups throughout the day, but not something you can just use and not worry about. Would you buy this product again? Yes

Great powder! It goes on smooth and easy. It doesn't even look like I'm wearing anything! It gives me a great color, like a natural rosiness! Some powders make me look cakey or too pale but this looks natural! I use the light 04 color. I usually wear it alone with either a brush or the sponge it comes with. Sometimes I use it over the smooth operator tinted moisturizer. Would you buy this product again? Yes

Love this quick and easy product however the color I thought would be right for me turned out a bit dark. I think I will try the light 02 as the light 04 proved to dark for me. Still a wonderful product as always, I never expect less than exceptional when it comes to tarte! Perhaps with the lighter shade I can layer it over the luminizor which proved a bit dark with the 04 on top. Well, trial and error but still beloved! Would you buy this product again? Yes

I really like the finish of this powder, i like that it does not change color as the day goes on. The coverage is buildable, yet lightweight. Would you buy this product again? Yes
This stuff is just ok. i was kind of expecting more though- but if you do plan on buying this product, you need to get primer or setting powder/spray. this stuff does not stay AT ALL! Would you buy this product again? Yes
Jennifer from TN

Great powder and great packaging. It has SPF, so it's great for a setting powder for my foundations/moisturizers that don't have SPF. I was very impressed by this powder! It also lasts a long time! Would you buy this product again? Yes

I recently got this powder and I LOVE it. I was hesitating on what color to get I don't know about the whole pink and yellow undertones thing. I am an NC42 and got this powder in honey12 and it fits EXACT. I love how its silky, and DEFINITELY not drying at all. It does not cake on or nothing. I have acne prone skin and it has not broke me out. This is my new favorite powder. I recommend everyone to try it!!! Would you buy this product again? Yes

I just started using this product after being a BE make-up user for years. I needed a change. So far I've been very impressed with the results. It has a smooth, silky finish, good coverage and it feels very light on my skin. I'm hoping it's a keeper!

Christina from KS

I love this stuff. I will put a little over their tinted moisturizer and it's perfect. But the other thing I love about this is that if need to quick go our or I'm having a lazy day and don't want to have to fuss to much... I just take the sponge in it and apply the powder all over my face... just by itself. Then I add a pop of blush and I'm on my way.
I get complements on how I look so natural when I wear tarte products. I love that this powder is enough on its own and evens everything out when I'm in a hurry.
Oh an it doesn't dry my skin out. I had tried other powders and it would make my skin feel dry, but this doesn't. Would you buy this product again? Yes
LUCIA from MI

I just love this powder. I've tried them all, but this one powder is the Miracle Worker and I can't live without. I use it as a foundation, it stays on all day and it controls the shine. I only wish it had a higher SPF, but overall I'm very pleased and will be a customer for life. Would you buy this product again? Yes

I was converted from BeneFit to Tarte on this particular piece. I usually purchase, Hello, Flawless from BeneFit. When shopping in Ulta, Ashley, a Tarte rep helped me with selecting what I came in to buy. She then told me that she was the Tarte rep and I told her that since she was so quick on helping me to show me some of her products. She gave me the grand tour and then showed me this provocateur powder. It is comparable to Hello, Flawless with the spf and such. She told me about this Amazonian clay. I actually purchased it because it was four dollars cheaper than the competitor and then decided to buy the blush too... I made my purchases a week and a day ago. I have gotten compliments on my complexion for eight days. She showed me the LipSurgence gift set but I didnt want to make any more purchases. I went back that Monday and Ulta was sold out. I got that off of tartecosmetics.com and have worn the lipstick for two days and gotten compliments on my lips and complexion. I am definitely a Tarte girl now! Would you buy this product again? Yes

I am impressed with this. Wish I would have had it when I was a teen. Sadly I am too old for powder foundations now, unless I use a heavy silicone primer. I am still young enough that I break out badly from that stuff. This is nice for touch ups. As a foundation you can get nice coverage from this. If you like full coverage, you will love it. You will go through it fast, but you will love it. Glad to see the refills at a lesser cost. Wish the powder puff was a flat skinny brush. Would you buy this product again? Yes
Erin from VA

great powder, doesn't rub off on clothes and gives a very natural look to skin! my only complaint was the packaging, the sponge it came with didn't properly fit into the case so I persistently found it open in my purse. But other wise this product was a great purchase! Would you buy this product again? Yes
Elisa C from NY
on 09/13/2011
I've always loved this, but I am THRILLED with the new compact design! It was so bulky with two spaces, and really hard to keep clean before with the sponge area lined with cloth. Even when I'd wash out the sponge, the cloth lining the inside of the sponge compartment always stayed dirty - there was no way to clean it. But now that it's just made like a normal compact, it's a 100% thumbs up, five stars all the way! Would you buy this product again? Yes

Judith from MD

I received the powder from the deluxe sample. Love this powder. Best for both heavier and light coverage.
I use a powder brush to apply on my face and my face feels and looks very smooth. Best powder ever!! Would you buy this product again? Yes

this goes on smoothly and matches my skintone perfectly. i do end up with a shiny nose though, and have to reapply several times during the day. it runs out pretty quickly, but i love it! Would you buy this product again? Yes
Carolina from TX
on 07/13/2011
I was so excited bout this product but honestly it disappointed me a little, it does not look totally natural, and if you place it even with a brush on top of foundtion it looks a little bit cackey....besides it is very expensive and i got the version that does not have the second container to place the sponge from sephora. Would you buy this product again? Yes
I'm finishing my 2nd provocateur powder. I gave 5 stars with the initial review on my 1st powder, but this time I have to give 3 1/2. Packaging has changed since. Although I don't care too much about the new case design, I'm suspecting they have reduced the amount of power since the size of the sponge has gotten smaller. Also I'm very disappointed with the quality of new sponge. I can tell it's cheaper material and it doesn't apply as well as the previous kind they used. I really wish Trate goes back to using the previous material they used for the sponge... Powder itself is still great though. By far the best I've used! Would you buy this product again? Yes
Allyson from IN
on 05/23/2011
I absolutely love this! It doesn't make my face break out and it looks great on my skin and doesn't look like I'm even wearing anything at all! The powder is really soft and goes on easily. The only downside to it is that I seem to go through it really quick and its not that cheap. Would you buy this product again? Yes
Sharon from CA
on 05/19/2011
The reason why I like this product is because I feel the ingredients aren't harmful to my skin and I found a color match. My gripe to this is that it doesn't have enough coverage to use by itself. It's sheer- sheer medium coverage.It does great as a setting powder though. It doesn't look or get cakey at all. It has a nice satin finish to it as well. Would you buy this product again? Yes

vidi from CA

This is my second compact of the honey color. It is nothing less than AWESOME!!! I use either a kabuki brush for a more natural look or I use the sponge applicator for more coverage. This mineral powder doesn't make you look "made up" at all. This has become one of my make-up staples. Thank you Tarte!! Would you buy this product again? Yes

This product came highly recommended from a friend who told me it was the BEST mineral make up shes ever tried. I bought it shortly after and realized she was completely right! Not only do I LOVE the pigment and coverage but i've seen a vast improvement in my skin since using this! I am the hugest Tarte fan because of this product! Would you buy this product again? Yes
HEATHER from AZ

I got this as a GWP so it is the smaller size.. I'm soo glad I did because I really LOVE it!! I think sample sizes are such a great way to decide if you like a product without buying the full size. I wish tarte would sell "mini" sizes at a lower cost :) I'm fair skinned with blonde hair and blue eyes and the "FAIR" shade was a perfect match!! When I run out, I will be back for the full size!!

I was looking for a parabean free make up when I cam upon this make up at Sephora because I had read a book about the chemicals that are in our every day beauty products that could actually be harming our skin and I had bad acne at the time (that was the reason for the book). I started using this product and my face actually cleared up, it blew my mind because I had tried Sheer Cover and Bareminerals and my face looked like crap with those (not as bad as with cheap liquid make up though). I recently couldn't afford to repurchase this and started using some sheer cover that my mom had and my face broke out again so for my birthday my mom bought this for me again and my face cleared up again so I know it was the make up. It makes all the difference, it is an amazing product.I would definitely recommend this to everyone over any other mineral make up and I have tried 5 different ones. Would you buy this product again? Yes
I love this powder. I like the sponge that comes with the powder also. Good coverage yet natural looking powder. And I love that it doesn't have harsh chemicals! More reason to love Tarte even more! Would you buy this product again? Yes

I ADORE THIS POWDER. It sets the foundation perfectly, doesnt rub off during the day and looks beautiful. It also lasts long, a little goes a long way. The only thing that could make this product better if it was free. Would you buy this product again? Yes
This is the best powder on the planet, it cover very well.
And it's not heavy, I hate heavy powder!!!

I through this product in my cart as a free sample, and was surprised by how much I liked the product. I only use tinted moisturizer as a base, and this powder evens everything out, even though my complexion is clear anyways. The fair shade perfect for the winter months, but I'd have to use the medium if I started getting some sun. Definitely recommend! Also wished the sample size came with the mirror and sponge!

Judy from PA

I really like this compact powder. The case it comes in is very nice and it's convenient to keep in your purse for touch ups during the day. The powder goes on a little heavier than I thought, but I'm going to try to use a brush instead of the sponge that comes with it, maybe that will help it go on more sheer. Definitely a good powder and with the SPF, even better. Would you buy this product again? Yes
Stephanie from CA

LOVE it!! My teenage daughter and I both use Tarte products and she has fallen in love with all of Tarte. I bought her a lot of Tarte for Christmas and she is so excited.

Lisa from NV

I received this today as a deluxe sample and looks to be very promising. The color is just slightly lighter than my skin-tone, but overall a good match. This product appears to be very silky and smooth in consistency and looks like it would work as full coverage setting powder as well. Would you buy this product again? Yes
Linda from PA
on 12/12/2010
I just tried this powder and was truly amazed. A few years ago I stopped using mineral powders because they were too drying and would look cakey on my skin. Not this one! I used it over the Tarte primer and Smooth Operator for an absolutely flawless finish. Today I tried it alone and was amazed at the coverage. My skin feels great and it is not cakey or drying. Even though it has great coverage I don't look like I am wearing any makeup. Looks like my natural skin, only better. love it!!! Would you buy this product again? Yes
Deborah from CA
on 12/10/2010
The Tarte pressed powder is great! I agree that coverage isn't as thick as other mineral make-up but not spilling loose powder all over your make-up bag...priceless. I like that it doesn't have all the additives that other mineral make up does so it reduces breakouts and actually made my skin softer. I find that it has the perfect amount of coverage for my skin and it looks really natural. Paired with my cheek tint, it's my normal morning routine! Would you buy this product again? Yes
Haley from IA

Got this as a free deluxe sample for the friends & family discount this december. I got it in walnut because I have a tan complexion lol. The packaging is sooo cute and the powder doesn't leave you cakey and provides great coverage. I have extremely oily skin and saw no shine all day! Lucky me! I've found a brilliant powder! Can't wait to buy the full size when I run out!! Would you buy this product again? Yes

Not sure if the formula changed, but I've been using this for years and my very last order has been making my face itchy. Might just be winter and changing skin. Still love my shade. My main complaint is that the packaging is so over the top. I would like Tarte to mix it up, the recycled lavender metal packaging is nice and sleek, I just feel like the shimmery purple quilting makes the product look not at all like a high end earth friendly choice, it looks cheap and teeny-bopper to me. Would you buy this product again? Yes
AMAZING? PERFECT? FLAWLESS? what more could I want? I absolutely love this product! Would you buy this product again? Yes

lidia from MS
on 10/17/2010
I fell inlove with this product after the second use to be quite honest, I was in a rush one morning and didnt want alot on my face. So I used a face primer and just this pressed powder alone. I used a brush in a packing motion under my eyes and trouble areas and then blended it out. Well it didnt look cakey it lasted about 6-8hrs with a primer keep in mind . But I think that is pretty good. I didnt breakout or anything! Would you buy this product again? Yes
Michelle from GA
on 10/09/2010
I have sensitive & acne prone skin. It's hard to find products with the many chemicals even top brands have. I agree with most reviewers that the application is sheer, but I found that to be able to put powder on - you'll have to moisturize your skin, let that sink in, use concealer where you need it and let that sink in & then apply powder for that flawless look. My skin breaks out less from the product now and more from personal stress. It used to be both the product and stress.. I love this product! Thank you Tarte! Would you buy this product again? Yes
marisa from CA
on 10/07/2010
I love this powder. I had been keeping away from powders because I'm afraid they will make me look cackey around my nose and between my eyebrows but this made my face look even and soft. It matched my face perfectly. I do wish it had more product because I went through it so fast. Would you buy this product again? Yes
ROSEMARY from CA
on 10/04/2010
I love this pressed powder. I like that it has spf 8 in it (just enough but not too much). It is somewhat sheer but it provides a little natural looking coverage. Lasts a long time too. I highly recommend this powder. Would you buy this product again? Yes
Emma from CA
on 10/01/2010
i got this in light 04, and i was satisfied enough with this product. the coverage is very light, so i couldn't really just rely on using it alone. other than that, it did not cause me to break out, which is a definite plus. i just wish i could find a more appropriate color, because this one did not really work for me. Would you buy this product again? Yes
Shelda from MO
on 09/29/2010
This product is not quite as rich and silky as other mineral powders that I have used. Its coverage is pretty sheer (especially if applied with a brush), but I like to have at least a medium cover so I tried building it with the sponge. However, the more coats I put on, the cakier it looked. I have also noticed that it tends to stick to dry areas, making them quite obvious. I used it by itself over the clean slate primer, but I believe it might be better suited as a setting powder over a liquid foundation (although I would recommend the amazonian clay finishing powder if this is what you need it for). If you have great skin and want a very sheer powder foundation, this would probably work well for you. Otherwise, you might want to try one of the other Tarte foundations. Would you buy this product again? Yes

I really like this powder! It gives a smooth finish, not shiny not too matte either, very natural. I use this to set the Smooth Operator Tinted Moisturizer, and it gives such a nice extra polished look. I use this in the lightest shade "Fair", and its the perfect color match for my fair neutral skin tone. Would you buy this product again? Yes

I like to use this on days I go a little darker with cheek stain and don't want an overly dewy look. It's really nice because it doesn't look or feel thick. I love products with spf too--makes sun protection easier! Would you buy this product again? Yes
Christin from IA
on 08/03/2010
Love this. I have normal skin that's prone to dryness and this product looks natural on, does not go on cakey like most powders. Fair is actually really fair, unlike a lot of brands that seem to have trouble making super light shades. Use this with the smooth operator tinted moisturizer which provides a little bit more coverage too :) Would you buy this product again? Yes
Pamela from NJ

Kristen from OR
on 08/02/2010
Love this powder. It actually comes in paler colors. It can be applied heavier and provide a very matte look with the sponge that comes with it. Or for lighter coverage, goes on very well with a brush. Wish it had a higher SPF on days I wear it by itself. Would you buy this product again? Yes
james from NY
on 08/02/2010
This powder is the best! I have combination skin and it does not dry my skin out at all. It is best to use a powder brush to make an even application. I use this to set my ReCreate foundation and alone over primer. The powder is soft and silky and I love that it has an spf :) Would you buy this product again? Yes
