    application tips
    Directions: Unless a significant layer of Healthy Finish Pressed Powder is applied, we recommend not relying on it (or any SPF-rated pressed powder) as your sole source of sun protection. It is best to use an SPF 15 powder in conjunction with a moisturizer or foundation with an SPF 15 or greater that contains UVA-protecting ingredients. For use as a finishing powder,

    Healthy Finish Pressed Powder can be applied with one of our Powder Brushes. A standard pressed powder puff may be used as well by those who prefer a more opaque, slightly heavy application of powder.

    For brush application, pick up some powder on the full end of the brush, knock off the excess, and brush it on using the same motion and direction as you used for your foundation. Keep everything going in the same direction (brushing down) to help maintain a smooth appearance.

    We do not recommend using Healthy Finish Pressed Powder wet—the sunscreen will likely be compromised and it has not been SPF-tested for wet application.

    During the day, if you need to touch up your makeup or sunscreen, it is helpful to use Oil Blotting Papers (or, in a pinch, a tissue) to dab away excess oil from the skin before using Healthy Finish Pressed Powder again. With this method, you use less powder and can maintain a natural but finished look, while modestly "refreshing" your sunscreen.

    Some makeup artists use a powder puff (particularly those who do TV makeup) to "press" the powder into the skin to create a very flat, matte finish. This method can be used for extra sun protection if reapplying moisturizer or foundation with sunscreen is inconvenient.

    Powder is a great "fix-it" tool to have at the ready for softening blush that is too strong or bright, blending the edges of eyeshadow or a too-dark crease color and softening an overzealous application of contour or bronzer.

    I like this bronzer because it has a brown tone instead of the orange you normally get in other bronzers. This makes you look naturally tan, not orange.
    —Sonya H.


    This bronzer is the best! I have fair skin and am a brunette. I use this year-round over my " All Bases Covered" foundation as a powder. I finish with a dusting of blush, and I look like I have color in my pale face without looking "fake tan" It is an amazing product. Thanks Paula!
    —Sue B.


    I am truly impressed with your Barely There Sheer Matte Tint. Finally a foundation that gives light but even coverage, it evens my skin tone without feeling like a mask. I finish with Healthy Finish Pressed Powder for a very natural look. The compliments I get just reinforce what I see in the mirror. Thanks!
    —Kathryn T.


    I would just like to say how much I love your All Bases Covered Foundation, No Slip Concealer and Healthy Finish Pressed Powder. I have tried a lot of makeup over the years and these are the only products that both match my VERY light skin tone and don't feel heavy or cakey on my face. I cannot tell I am wearing them, even after having them on all day. Plus, the sun protection is great. Thank you!
    —Dawn W.


    I love the Best Face Forward Foundation. It took me a few tries to figure out how to apply it, but it is so nice. And the Pressed Powder with SPF. Great makeup at good prices! Now I am confident when I say "No Thank You" to most of the products and cosmetics at the department stores. I know I am not "missing out" on anything! And my skin and makeup look better than ever.
    —Mary R.

    LOVE IT!!!
    Best pressed powder I have ever used(neutral). I even use a concealer brush and the powder over discolored areas instead of foundation. Great Products!!!
    —Jill K.

    Healthy Finish Pressed Powder
    I love this powder. It is light, yet covers the redness in my skin from rosacea and gives me some SPF protection. I use it instead of foundation everyday and people always comment on "what beautiful skin" I have.
    —patty matthews

    Terrific Powder
    I love this powder! It sets my makeup in the morning, so that it lasts all day. There is absolutely no breakthrough of shine. I love the added SPF, as well- I have fair skin and want to keep it beautiful for a lifetime.
    —Liz

    Best powder on earth!
    I've tried every other powder made (almost) and this is the most finely textured ever, plus a great SPF. Great for the very fair like me.
    —Carole Jonas

    Great powder with SPF
    I love this powder because of the SPF and the silky texture. I have very fair, slightly dry skin. This powder protects my face during the day without drying out my skin or clogging my pores. The Buff Beige color is light enough for even my very pale face.
    —Elizabeth

    Tina
    I just LOVE this powder foundation! As liquid foundations are not for me and my acne prone skin, this powder foundation is just perfect. I have tried many other powder foundations, and they either made me breakout or had a chalky unnatural look. Using Paula's powder brush, I apply this foundation and get a wonderful light to medium coverage without any heavy makeup feeling. Again, thank you Paula!!!
    —Tina
