I reluctantly bought this with the idea that a powder could not offer my combo skin a good coverage...but I was wrong! With my dry patches I assumed I would get that flaky look--but it didnt do that! It was great! It covers all my imperfections very well and it lasts alot longer than i could have ever imagined! I like knowing that the minerals are good for my skin too. I always hate putting stuff on my sensitive face..but i feel good about this powder! Yay!
