What it is
This powder foundation delivers powerful coverage yet a lightweight feel. It creates a smooth, velvety complexion. Developed in collaboration with professional makeup artists, this powder foundation offers superior coverage, a flawless finish, and a comfortable feel. It blurs imperfections on the skin's surface for superior correction. Its non-powdery, natural matte finish is like bare skin. The airy, smooth texture blends seamlessly with just one application for a comfortable feel. It's waterproof and scrub-resistant, delivering a beautiful finish that lasts for 24 hours*. (*Based on research by MAKE UP FOR EVER. Results may vary.) It includes a dedicated sponge for customizing the finish. Recommended skin types: normal, combination, and oily skin.

Ingredients
How to use
The included sponge allows you to control the finish by using different sides. For full coverage, use the sponge side to apply foundation in short strokes, blending from the center of your face outward. Repeat until you achieve your desired coverage. For medium coverage, use the velvet side to lightly glide the foundation from the center of your face outward. If applying with a brush, we recommend Foundation 109. [PRO TIP] Use the HD Skin Matte Velvet Compact as a face powder over liquid foundation for a flawless matte finish with enhanced coverage. If using as a powder, we recommend the Precision Powder Brush 128. When applying, use the "dot and dust" technique. 1. Apply the powder to the skin by patting the brush onto the forehead, chin, and both cheeks. No additional powder is required during this process. 2. With your eyes closed, move the brush from your forehead down, blending from left to right, to apply the powder as if it were a thin veil.

I love using it because it covers well. However, I bought a new one in the same color as the one I used before, but it's a little darker. There's something slightly different about it. I'm disappointed.
It removes unevenness on the skin (especially the nose), doesn't easily crumble, has good coverage, and has a semi-matte finish that doesn't look powdery. Make Up Forever is great after all. I bought it from the official online shop. I'm a big fan of putting on makeup on my face, so I chose the lightest color, but it looks quite white. I put it here for comparison, and it's lighter than the lightest color of Dior's concealer, but when you apply it, you don't notice the difference in color that much. However, if you use it to touch up your makeup, it looks white and casts, so be careful when choosing the color. It crumbles more easily than liquid.
Too yellowish
After applying liquid foundation, lightly press with a sponge to apply. It covers pores as if it were a filter. I think if you apply a lot, it will give you a matte finish, but I don't want to completely erase the shine of the liquid foundation, so I tapped it on the areas that look shiny. It also crumbled beautifully.
Thank you. You can change the texture by turning the puff over. It has more coverage than other powder foundations. It doesn't feel like a thick powder. I don't really like the compact design.
