    I love Coty Airspun translucent also...I emptied mine into a small, vintage, glass powder container and brush it on

    I use both the Jane Iredale Pure Pressed Base in Bisque, and the Estee Lauder Lucidity loose powder.

    The EL powder is what I use for everyday wear. I usually apply a little concealer under my eyes (dark circles) before applying. I use the puff to apply, then brush off excess with my brush. I love this powder, and think it is wonderful.

    Occasionally, for special occasions or if I am traveling (because it's less messy), I use the Jane Iredale Pure Pressed Base. I apply it with a brush. It looks very natural, but definitely provides more of a "foundation" coverage than the EL powder.

    Either one of these powders is a winner!

    I have freckles. Many, many freckles. If I wear foundation I look ridiculous, because then my freckles start at my neck! Unless I want to paint on every inch of exposed skin, I cannot wear foundation. I use Alima Pure satin finishing powder which takes the shine away and evens out my colour without obliterating my freckles. I am also quite pale but with very yellow undertones to my skin, and have found that conventional powders are either not pale enough or are too pink. Alima Pure makes the palest powders I have ever seen!

    I use the Jane Iredale powder. I like it a lot. My face doesn't feel gross and I like knowing what I am putting on my face isn't filled with harmful chemicals.

    I'm using Chanel at the moment, but I won't be buying it again. I do find it lovely and fine, but it is so expensive! I just can't justify it.

    I normally use Natural Collection (from Boots) loose powder - it's only £1.99 a pot so won't break the bank. I decant into a pretty pink glass jar. I want to try E.L.F HD powder as I have been hankering after the MAC version for ages.... but again, don't much like the price!

    This is a new offering from Besame which sounds really intriguing (plus I'm a sucker for anything violet-scented):

    More than somewhat.

    I use NYC cosmetics loose powder in my shade(4$ at walmart!!) for most of my looks( used it on everything from everyday makeup to powdering down greasepaint) and. It has great coverage...just a few daubs of concealed blended and powdered and its as if you've popped foundation all over.

    I use the pressed powder and have recently begun using the powdered sunscreen, which is surprisingly wonderful - it's sheer, imparts a wee bit of tint and is very natural looking. Jane Iredale is sold in salons and day spa type places around here, not in big stores. Here's a list of places near where you live that sell it. Check them out and see what you think.
