i love this powder/foundation. i don't know why people with dry skin would have problems with this powder. i have extremely dry areas/patches on my face (i suffer from eczema and i get occasional patches on my face), and i use this powder over my estee lauder daywear cream, and i get a flawless finish with the right amount of coverage that i can adjust through layering and different ways of applying, according to the particular coverup i need on that day. first, i cover any problem (red spots/zits) with the sponge applicator, then go over my face with a large face brush. i find this powder to give an absolutely flawless finish, that is unlike any other i have tried, and i have tried quite a bit. i never look like i am wearing makeup, but i do look like i have a naturally healthy, even toned, flawless complexion. it can also be applied wet, as a heavier foundation. this is my favorite product and i can't do without it.
