Buttercup Light Powder by Sacha Cosmetic

Where has this powder been all of my life?! I thought it was just YouTube hype, but nope, this powder is the BIZNASSSS!! I use different formulas of foundation depending on what I'm doing that day. If I'm photographing a wedding outside in the heat, I wear a liquid waterproof foundation. For everyday wear, I use a stick foundation. I tested Buttercup during a wedding on a pretty hot day where I tend to "glisten" (boys sweat, girls glisten ) and thought for sure that I had wiped most of my makeup off by the time I got home 10 hours later. Nope! I walked through the door and my guy said "You must have had a really easy indoor wedding." Aside from my lipstick, ALL of my makeup was right where I'd put it over 10 hours before....including my highlighter! Since I get a little oily in the T-zone, I did blot about half way through the day because I felt "glistening" going on. I was really surprised at how well this powder kept everything in place and looking fresh. It's not drying at all and leaves my skin looking and feeling very supple and healthy. It's great with my stick foundation as well. My friend took a few photos of me using a professional flash on my camera during the wedding reception and there wasn't any flashback. Good thing I blended well! It's so smooth and blends VERY well! I blended mine with an oval brush and a regular powder brush and while I personally prefer my oval brushes, it went on well with the regular brush, too. I'm not sure how well the compact version would work, but since I don't like to travel with a container of loose powder in my bag and would like to have a more convenient way to carry it, I MAY have to give it a try.
