Thank you all so much ladies! I attempted to look at the YBF on HSN but they no longer carry, found the compact on Amazon though, $6 and change if you can imagine! The ELF (loose) is $6 always, hoping to be able to pick up from Target.

A question to ChynnaBlue, OPIgirl and Hazelnut_77: The Ben Nye banana powder image on line renders more peach than yellow - is it a true yellow like the YBF? Thank you in advance.

I've been using Clinique's yellow powder for quite some time and I really like it. It is a loose powder so it is easy to get the color and amount of coverage you want.

It comes with a silly little brush which I pitch out and use my fluffy powder brush instead.

HSN had several YBF shows in the past few days so maybe they are just sold out of the yellow powder. It's really popular, I can't imagine it being discontinued (although one never knows). I sure hope not anyway. Maybe I better stock up too. Thank goodness for Amazon. Smiley Happy

Hope you enjoy the Amazon purchase. {#emotions_dlg.thumbup}

Benefit also has a yellow pressed powder..


Most of their foundation powders (Hello Flawless) has a yellow tinge to it. I love the product but hate the colors.

I have tried both Bobbi Brown and YBF yellow powder (pressed). I much prefer YBF. Blurs flaws and never makes me look yellow. (Although I do apply very lightly). It is made in Italy and goes on like a dream.

I have BB's sheer pressed yellow powder and love it. I use it every day to set concealer and eye shadow primer. I also use it lightly as an allover face powder. To me, it was well worth the price, but admittedly, I have not used any others to compare.

I like YBF's too, I have pink undertones and it doesn't make me look yellow.

I don't know the YBF to compare them, but the Ben Nye banana powder is a warm yellow. I specifically use it to set the under eye concealer and works great!{#emotions_dlg.thumbup}

I just finished a YBF pressed compact so now I am going to use a round container w/the ""grating"" type top (from Smashbox) that I've had for quite awhile! haha

YBF also sells a yellow cream which is very popular if you have dry skin!

Also SCA on hsn sells a yellow creme...
