Question for Bye Bye Pores Pressed Silk Powder users

MercysMom — Wed, 19 Oct 2016 13:39:11 GMT

Can someone tell me how long their pressed compact in the powder last them? I'm wondering if I'm being too heavy handed with mine. I just started using IT about a month ago all ready see the bottom. I'm using it once a day, in the mornings, every day. Thanks

I use mine every day once in the a.m. and perhaps as a touchup later in the day and it has lasted at least 9 months so far. The center area is empty, just a ring of powder around the outer perimeter. I will repurchase soon, it's a great product for me. For heavier, creamier coverage or touchup I like Maybelline Fit Me powder in the creamy version, lovely.

I can get about 60 days out of mine. Maybe a few days longer but that is about normal. It sitll is a good deal for me. I love the finished look I get with it.

That seems really unusual. I've never gone through any powdered product that quickly. I think it's easy to pick up too much of the Bye Bye Pores Pressed and felt it was easy to overdo it. It's a good powder, but because it was too easy to overdo, I went back to my NARS Light Reflecting Pressed Powder.

I am using the huge fluffy It brush that came with the pressed powder compact here on QVC. I can get plenty of powder on that brush, only have to load it once, and my pressed powder has lasted a very long time, as they all do for me. I've had pressed Lancome powders last for much longer, years even!

I just ordered the one that comes with the fluffy brush. I'm using an IT brush, but it's got a flat top. Maybe that's packing on too much product. I'm hoping the fluffy brush will resolve my overuse issue.

Just like the loose powder version of Bye Bye Pores, a little bit goes a long way. I just tap my IT fluffy brush to the pressed powder, and that covers my entire face and upper neck. If you hit pan that quickly, you might be using too much.

For me, maybe about 5 or 6 months, but I do not think that is very long for using it just in the mornings, no touchups. I use the brush it came with, but I tighten up the bristles as I dab it onto the powder, and then onto my face.

Really I just swipe a little on. I do not use any other foundation or powder. I really do like this.

The net weight is only a little over a quarter of an ounce.
