This powder is my life savior!! I have an extremely oily/combination skin and this powder is just amazingly neutralizing the oil on my face. It has light-medium coverage, and it reminding me of translucent powder, which doesn't have any color at all, so don't worry if u have darker skin stone. I found the packaging is so adorable even though i'm not a big fan of pink. However, like the comment below said,the powder compact is really delicate, so be careful when u apply it. I still use powder brush but with a lightly dapping motion. Also, please note that if u have dry skin, this will dry out your skin even more. I will definitely buy this again and recommend it to everyone who have oily/combination skin

I've got very volatile skin, in the winter it's very dry, in the summer incredibly oily. It's hyper sensitive (have to use prescribed corticosteroids daily) and the majority of products drive it off the wall.
Last summer I was using Benefit's "Get Even", which was my HG of powders for a long time. It was great, but not perfect. I had to reapply often, the redness coverage wasn't as good as it touted, and it tended to look cakey if I applied even slightly more than a touch.
I managed to lose it over the winter, since I never use powder during the cold season, but when it started to warm up again, my skin became oily as well and I had to find a new powder. Cue Lioele saving my damn life!
THIS is my HG powder. I have never found anything so good. The coverage is quit wonderful, while it's not full, it does even out my skin tone very nicely, especially since I am riddled with hyperpigmentation. It's also incredible at soaking up/neutralizing oil. I use Missha M Perfect Cover as my BB Cream in the summer, and while it's lovely looking, my skin can get very oily if I don't use sheets before applying and during the day. This powder neutralizes all need for those sheets. I'm able to go all day without having to pat down oil. It feels great.
DON'T use a brush to apply. The powder compact is really delicate and you'll be tearing it apart with a brush. The little pad that comes inside the compact works perfectly for it, and while I was never a fan of applying powders in this way, it certainly doesn't cause any problems here.
All in all if you have oily skin, this powder is amazing. I've had no problems with eczema flare ups which means it's probably pretty great for sensitive skin as well. It will even up your complexion very nicely.
If you're prone to dry spots, though, stay away, this will only make them stand out more.
Review:
Okay, I bought this to use as my powder alongside my BB cream, because I was afraid it would make my skin very oily~
Seeing as that wasn't the case, using this powder dried out my skin a lot.
Don't let that deffer you, though~!
Because I would highly recommend this product for someone who has acne or severely oily skin.
I actually had a spot underneath my bangs, and I put some of this powder on it... and it dried out all of the oiliness and even reduced the redness/swelling~
If you want to know about coverage i'd say that it's "medium"-- it's actually pretty nice. It's actually really light so it can give you a porcelain effect though with the "dryness" factor, I wouldn't really recommend to apply it everywhere)
There kind of isn't a lot of product inside, though..
It is heavily scented~!
However it seems suitable for sensitive skin, seeing as my skin is kind of easily irritated...
Overall a very nice product~
4/5
