Even though it's a powder, it's not dry or powdery. It has a decent amount of coverage and is able to hide the redness on my cheeks and the sides of my nose. I have oily skin, so it does get sticky around my nose after 2-3 hours, but the rest of my face stays in place and stays beautiful all day. I found that using a foundation brush rather than the included sponge gave me a more even and beautiful finish.
When I was looking for powder foundation, I saw a limited edition set that came with a case, so I bought it. The coverage is natural, but it gives off just the right amount of shine, making my skin look beautiful. It also doesn't smudge easily! By the evening, it had smudged a little around my nose, but other than that, it looked beautiful. Another great thing about it is that even though it's a powder, it doesn't feel dry! By the way, the shade I bought is 01, which is a little lighter (the standard shade is 02). It naturally brightens my complexion, which is great. I'll update after I use it in the summer.
It has just the right amount of coverage and softly blurs pores, making it easy to use. It doesn't feel like it's filling in pores, so I think it won't fall out. I had the impression that powder foundations are drying, but I was surprised that it's lighter in texture than liquid or cushion foundations and evens out the skin to a certain extent! I recommend applying it with a brush rather than a puff!

It was smoother than I expected, but still had good coverage, which was great. I'll definitely be buying it again! It blended well with my skin and didn't leave any shine even after a long time. I also liked that the particles were small, which made it different from other budget cosmetics.
