Mineral Pressed Powder
SUMMARY OF REVIEWS
L.A. Colors Mineral Pressed Powder sets makeup to a soft matte finish and works well for touch-ups with a light hand, per several creators. Juicyjas flags that it oxidizes significantly and feels dry, though she finds it better than the loose version. It pairs especially well with the brand's matte foundation for oily skin, and one creator compares it favorably to the old L'Oreal True Match formula.
