BH Cosmetics Studio Pro Matte Finish Pressed Powder Shade 240

I used to adore wearing powder makeup, but then 45 came along and all bets were off :(. Powder and mature skin do not always get along. :D I love this powder. I would definitely say that it is a dupe for M a c (mineralze powder, which i also have). I got this BH powder in color 215originally when I saw it for a good price on Amazon. I had actually wanted the lighter color, 205, but it was more expensive at the time so I got 215 thinking maybe it's good enough. And it totally was, lol. It was great for summer when I'm slightly darker. Or maybe I just want a little more color? I'm very pale, with a cool neutral tone. So I recently just saw that the original color I wanted, (the lightest ,205) was at a great price, so I grabbed it quickly from Amazon. I think it looks perfect! I will use the 215 in summer time or maybe as a touch of bronzer. But right now in winter, I'm going to use the 205. I recently got color matched and got a package of the M a c mineralized skinfinish in color " medium Plus", And I feel these are very comparable in quality and coverage and color. This powder is so soft and light-textured, it just floats on, is not clumpy or cakey. It does not make me look all chalky and dry. it is just so nice!! I have said i have dry skin, but if i do have a touch of oily skin, this keeps it at bay. I wil often use a face oil as moisturizer and then put this powder on top a minute after the oil settles.: Works great. I am 47, have dry skin, little to no acne, if that helps with deciding. Again, I'm very fair (or pale? Whichever is cool tone, lol) I would use a "creamy natural" in drug store brands, a level 10 or 20 in Neutrogena. I had pictures in my firstly attempted review, but the review didnt get accepted...i'll try to include pictures at some point. Amazon did not like my review and wouldnt let me post, i'm not sure why since it is not profane or inappropriate in my opinion.

I got this powder as a replacement/to try something new. I’ve been using Mabelline fit me matte poreless in 120 classic ivory and the BH shade #215 is almost a perfect match to the Maybelline shade. I think it’s safe to say that I’ll be switching to the BH cosmetics brand from here on. I like the coverage better and it’s a greater amount for almost the same price.

I had finally hit pan on my MAC Studio fix powder and I didn’t feel like shelling out close to 30$ for a new compact. I saw that this product was recommended by a YouTuber so for 8$ I decided to give it a try. Honestly I’d say this is the best dupe you’re going to find! I attached photos of my MAC compact in NC-30 and the BH compact in #230. The powders look (slightly) different in pan, the MAC having a little bit more of a warmer/yellow tone to it , but when swatched they’re actually pretty identically. #230 is slightly lighter than NC-30. I’d say it’s like a NC-28 if that exists. I doubt when applied you’d be able to tell a difference between the BH&MAC. I’d say if you’re a anywhere from a NC25/NC30 go for #230. The BH compact feels more powderey where as the Mac compact feels more “creamy”. I believe that’s because the MAC compact you’re able to apply wet, which makes the formula means they had to make the formula more creamy. I’m not sure if you can apply the BH compact wet, But the BH Compact is very pigmented. A small swipe of your finger will show pigment , I had to press harder in my MAC compact to get a good swatch as opposed to the BH one. If you’re looking for a good dupe and want to pay half the price , go with this product!

Super good finish and coverage, if you are more of a fan of the matte look. Blends easy as well. Only gave it four because it can look a little cakey if you accidentally apply too much especially under the eyes (I'd recommend using an under eye setting powder instead and then this powder for the rest of your face) :) Overall really good face powder

I took a risk with a pressed powder. I’m used to it being cakey and finding every nook and cranny to settle in. It didn’t happen with this. I also expected the color to be far too dark for my fair skin. I have the most difficult time finding matching skin products. I went with the lightest shade and it is perfect. It also goes on satin smooth. I really am shocked this works for me so far! I’ll update should anything change. So far, I’m loving this natural look and light feel. I wore a concealer under my eyes to cover my tired eyes. The rest of my face I lightly dusted this powder. It’s highly pigmented, so a little goes a long way.

Bought this as an affordable and cruelty-free alternative to Mac Studio fix which I’ve been wearing for 10+ years. I wear NC25 in Mac & bought a #230 in BH. Very similar in packaging and finish/feel/application of product, but BH is significantly more sheer and powdery with a light to barely medium coverage that is not buildable. Also #230 is a bit too orange & dark for me, and Mac’s NC25 matches me perfectly. If it weren’t for the powdery light coverage, I’d try a #215, but it just doesn’t cover what Studio Fix does in one application (redness and small blemishes) so I prob will go back to Mac until I can find a better dupe. If you have flawless skin already, you might be happy.

Decent matte finish, but it came completely broken. I ended up removing as much as I could and breaking up the rest into a loose powder instead.

Love this powder and the price is unbeatable!! The color was a little darker than I expected especially when you use it with foundation. But I've used this alone without foundation and the color looks great. I was surprised that I didn't have to reapply during the day and the coverage lasted all day and pretty much stayed matte considering I have oily skin. I am a Latina with olive skin tone and I purchased the #230 and I would like to order the #215. I would say that this is almost an exact dupe for the MAC Studio Fix Powder but cost a fraction of the price. This is awesome. I will definitely be order more BH Cosmetics!!! No doubt

Love this powder! Mattifies but still looks natural. I like it best for no-foundation days just to even my skin tone a little bit and control shine. Would recommend applying with a very soft brush or even a beauty blender as it kicks up a lot of product when you use a denser powder brush.

Love the price. Good coverage. Fast delivery.

Muy buen producto un polvo ligero, Cobertura ligera, aterciopelada!

Para quitar brillo es bueno pero no cubre bien y no es lo suficientemente compacto, queda como suelto

Purchased for my girlfriend and she got an allergic reaction, but she was in love with it for almost an hour while it was okay.
