Easy to follow the instructions and when you do, this setting powder works well. I don't use a heavy amount of make-up. I use concealer, liquid foundation, blush, brow pencil and mascara. Occasionally I will use eye lid color and lipstick. I don't like my make-up to feel heavy but I want to forget I'm wearing it. This powered gives that light feel of not being there but still helps keep the make-up I do wear from bleeding out and fading away. I did need to reapply during the day but otherwise, it works well.
