Mario BadescuSpecial Healing Blemish Repairing Face Powder for Oily and Troubled Skin, Reduces T-Zone Shine, Decongests Pores and Balances Excess Oil, Gentle Sulfur Powder for Skin Care

as expected, points notedOrdered this after reading through a bunch of reviews and watching some YouTube videos. Shipping was faster than expected - arrived early which was nice since I needed it for the weekend.The packaging was decent, nothing fancy but everything arrived intact.Quality is also as expected, good for new. I definitely needed another and the price point feels reasonable for what you get. matches the photos online pretty well.A few minor notes. Wish there was less packaging since I’m environmentally focused these days.Overall though, I’m satisfied with the purchase. Does exactly what I needed it to do. Would buy again if I need another one.

I was so thrilled to discover this! I get hormonal cystic acne and even if I’m diligent putting pimple patches on and babying them I’m still stuck with an open wound that makeup won’t cover.This powder is great because it has clay and other ingredients to dry up the blemish and help it heal and it also makes it easier to cover with makeup. I like to dap a bit right on the blemish with a q-tip and the apply concealer over if needed. It works well as an all over powder (lightly) if you need some extra oil control too.

Feels nice going on and helps take redness away from blemishes

This product is a cult fave just like their drying lotion, but gets so misunderstood from the reviews I've read. It is an all over finishing powder, yes, for all skin tones! If you use it that way on melanin-blessed skin, please don't use the puff they provide. That is too heavy an application and will show opaque on your skin. Use a very fluffy, long bristled powder brush. Natural bristle holds the product, synthetic bristle let's it fly away. I like synthetic for finishing powder so it's not cakey. And for the love, not a flat-top aka kabuki or domed brush. That is what you want for a powder foundation application. The DUcare you can find here on Amazon looks like it'll do the job great! B09W957GTH <--- search that ASIN it'll pop up the D03.This is also an anti-redness/color correcting powder. That's a happy by-product of the yellowish color of the active ingredient sulfur.It is a daytime drying treatment to just- popped zits, y'all! Even the ones you could kick yourself for messing with when you're about to do your makeup and there's fluid...tap that bad boy with some of this magic Blemish Repairing Powder on a cotton swab. If it's not open, and you don't need full face prevention, and you just want to speed healing of yesterday's monster? I use a concealer brush or even an eye lining brush. Natural bristle for this trick. No fly away-lays down the product well.Boys! Treats popped and picked zits in the day, takes away redness, cotton swab application. Full face acne protection or broken out shave bumps in beard area? Big, fluffy synthetic bristle brush. Like an old fashioned shaving cream brush would work awesome for the guys. Ya dig?I don't work for Amazon or Mario B. I just have been in the beauty and spa biz a long time. I've sold, repped for, tried, sampled and bought every product and brand you can imagine! Product junkies gonna junk! ✌️💋🩷

Was shocked to see that my face didn't look like a light bulb after adding to my minimal makeup routine. I have just lightly bushed over my face when I go natural without looking dull.

Helps hide blemishes

Loved the idea of this but it does not work. I followed directions putting it on a blemish before it had been touched for hours then when no change happened, it squeezed it then applied the powder. The next morning, it was as if no product was used. If I had used a pimple patch, it would’ve been dried out by morning. This was a disappointment.
