Patrick Starrr Loose Setting Powder
Product details
Web ID: 7086886great powder
I have combination skin in the Fall/Winter leaning more towards dry. I use the MAC line and normally would use the Prep Prime transparent powder. I was introduced to this product by a MAC artist and expressed skepticism because I had not tried anything else for the shinny problem. I was also very apprehensive because of the cost in comparison to the Prep Prime transparent powder. I even went so far as to hold on to the packaging and the receipt, determined in my head that it was sure in RETURN. This powder is proving me all kinds of WRONG. It has a very silky feeling and makes the face feel silky as well. Caution-The powder puff that comes with it is huge and may be hard to maneuver. I would suggest using one of your powder brushes instead for better control. It goes on pretty "white" and a little last a long way so you will only need to apply a small amount to your puff or brush. My elements are rain and cold today and the powder still works with amazement!
Very little product
Absolutely gorgeous powder. However, for the price and quantity it should be GOLD. This is over priced on a massive scale. Honestly made me doubt buying mac products ever again. The quality is there, but gouging your customers is unacceptable.

Beautiful formula, bad presentation.
Let me just start by saying this: this is an amazing powder. I was so excited when MAC brought it back, so I could rebuy it. When I got it in the mail, I was so disappointed. It had a fraction of the product in comparison to the old one. The packaging is cheap and impractical as well. It's a beautiful formula, don't get me wrong, but the amount you're getting makes me feel cheated...

Half the product in cheap packaging
This version offers half the product of the original release and the packaging is cheap cardboard. The powder puff is useless because you can't properly apply setting powder with it. I would have been more accepting if the packaging was sturdy with the full amount of product, but this was obviously designed for aesthetics rather than use.
Great Foundation Setting Powder
Nearly-translucent setting powder that is virtually colorless, makes the foundation on the skin look seamless, and helps keep makeup in place throughout the day. The only downside is that the original launch contained more product than this new, flashy packaging. Can't say that it makes the makeup last all day, but it does a great job smoothing out the skin. I purchased 3 back-ups since it is a great, everyday setting powder and since it might run out sooner than the original version :(
Disappointed
I wanted to try this last time but it was sold out so I wanted to make sure I got it this time. The powder is great, but there’s a crappy paper sticker over the plastic holes. I’m not even sure the powder fills half of the container it comes in. And that price is ridiculous. I’m glad I used a gift card on this purchase.
Very little amount of product!
I hardly write reviews, but this I have to. I bought the powder when it first launched last holiday season and it was so great it lasted me almost 5 months! I'm actually saddened that this time the powder didn't even last a month, the amount of product that was given and the fact that way it's packaged you can't even tell, is really messed up. It's a good powder but it sucks that the coins are more important than the quantity. Won't be buying again

Disappointed
This was one of those products I was really excited about, didn’t get the chance to get it the first time it came out so I put my alarm to be able to get it this second time around. 1. Packaging is terrible, very messy. 2. It sets into my under eye línes so it looks awe full. Tried the pretty vulgar setting powder and like it more than this one.
