Benefit Get Even Pressed Powder By kateri27 on - Updated Sep 18, 2011

I am always looking for products that multi-task. I came across Benefit Get even color correcting face powder. It works as a foundation and pressed powder in one.

That in mind I thought I would be able to put it on once in the morning and go on with my day. This was not the case. the first time you put it on it does look fabulous, and covers the rudiness of your face. The problem is that it tends to were off on areas of your face that are oily. It wears off on your t-zone. Upon second application of Get Even your will notice it building up in your pores. This is not a pleasant look. The product can not be used as a pressed powder that can be used throughout the day.

I would recommend this product for use once daily, but I would not recommend keeping this product in your purse for daily touch ups.

Thats a shame, you would think for that kind of money it would have better staying power.

Good to know. Don't want to go around looking like a clown with powder caked on my face :0)

So what should you do about middle of the day wear offs? I guess you need to wash your face and start all over with the powder. How inconvenient! This is too costly for not giving all day wear.

Thanks for the info. I am a big fan of their makeup but haven't tried this yet.

I love Benefit -- especially the clever names they give their products. Like Lorianna, I don't use powder on top of foundation, or it looks like make-up (men may laugh at the fact that we want make-up that doesn't look like make-up, but we all want make-up that looks like our skin, only better!) Sounds like it's hard to do two things in one, though!
