COVERGIRL Clean Matte Pressed Powder, 535 Medium Light, 0.35 oz

I've been using this for literally YEARRRSSS and it's never disappointed me. I have very oily skin and this helps with it a lot. It stays on my face almost all day, and retouching still looks great. It also layers on top of foundation, mine is also CoverGirl, very well! I use a thin layer on top of foundation and a bit of blush. One thing to note though, is that, as a lot of powders do, this will probably look very visible if you have dry and flaky skin on your face. My nose is exactly this, and the only part of my face that isn't oily for whatever reason, and I have to lay it on VERY VERY lightly, if at all, because otherwise It emphasizes the dryness. Layering on a good amount of moisturizer helps with this.

gives a matte finish, doesn't look cakey, it blended perfectly with my skin tone and the coverage was flawless. I have dry skin so i do have a moisturizing routine before i do my makeup and i had no issues with this powder. It didn't cause any irritation or blemishes later. I will continue to be a repeat customer

The formula changed. It now has a shiny tint to it. Seems like too much highlight in it and it tends to make my foundation cake. I’ve used this for years and in the past months the product has changed

I am HEART BROKEN. I wear full coverage makeup. It's the only powder I found ever worked for maintaining a matte finish. 12 years using this product. Over the last month I have discovered it to now be shiny (almost penalized on my skin and significantly different shades than what I have been using. It's clumping awfully and looks terrible. I have since learned that it's a new formula. It would have been nice if that was advertised on the packaging as I literally have over 20 of them in a discard pile tha I at first thought maybe I bought expired ones. I'll have to change up my products I guess after 13 years. Shame on you covergirl for not labeling your product changes. Such a waste of money

If I could rate this product lower than 1 star, I would. It is HORRIBLE! Changing the formula RUINED it!! It is shiny and leaves my skin feeling oily and gross within a few hours of applying. Listen to your customers and change it back! Until then, I will be using a different brand.

I think CoverGirl switched their formula. This powder seems like it has too much highlighter in it...

So many users are reporting that we ALL hate the new formula! Did no one from Covergirl actually try this before it was distributed? As another user pointed out, by not changing the packaging to signify a change, I thought maybe I got a bad batch and continued to purchase this from different stores hoping to find the good ones again. I wasted so much money on this horrible new stuff that I've had to just toss in the trash. Please tell us that you hear us and are bringing back the original. And let us know if you do because with the same packing we will never know if you changed it back. I have tried all of the other powders by you but haven't found one that is good for me. You have lost a very loyal customer (many, many customers, I'm sure!) and I'm so disappointed. I understand that sometimes things change, but you were wrong to not change the packaging to let us know this was a different product than we were all used to. You tried to fool us but it didn't work!

I have been using this powder for years, with the same routine, now it leaves my makeup so patchy and unset. After a few hours my makeup looks terrible.

I thought it was only me but clearly others having been having issues with this product as of late. I've used shade 555 for a while now but after buying the new one I look pale! Also, the product doesnt come onto the applicator easily, I need to scrape the top to loosen a bit of the powder

I have bought 535 med light for many years. the new product is the same code and colour but is much darker. I will now have to source a new brand and colour.
