I cant decided if this is a pressed powder or a foundation, as it is labeled. It comes in 6 shades and contains botanicals, vitamins and triclosan (anti-bac). It unfortunately doesnt contain any sun protection. I used it over moisturized, SPF protected skin and loved the smooth matte finish. It says to apply with dome brush for sheer coverage or sponge in compact for opaque coverage. I tried to apply it with their new Face Brush (only available in Brush Set) and "pressed" it into my skin for a flawless look. The color descriptions online are a big help if you need to decide on a shade. The catalog has accurate color swatches too. Overall, a great product.
