Mario Badescu Special Healing Blemish Repairing Face Powder for Oily and Troubled Skin, Reduces T-Zone Shine, Decongests Pores and Balances Excess Oil, Gentle Sulfur Powder for Skin Care

Best results so I love the product and many others from this line - I am at the 3rd jar of the powder ... this product has worked the best for me - never had an acne problem until I reached the 60's! ... also, considering that a mature skin will not do well with powders and other drying products was something to consider - So, this Blemish Powder: 1. it does clear the acne and helps clear the blemish better that any other product out there - and not just on the face 2. it does not dry the skin, especially the mature one 3. I do a spot application with the tip of my finger to make sure I get the powder to penetrate the blemish and the skin and then I blend it with the puff provided so I do not look like I have whiter spots on my face 4. the acnee or the blemish are less visible even though the powder does not have any tint, is just white. I guess the white of the powder with the pink/redness of the blemish balance each other out .... but for the last coverage, I use another brand face powder, like SkinClearing or other mineral powder. 5. for the rest of my face and after healing I use the Vit C cream/ Serum (I prefer the cream).... apply by patting with my palms so the circulation is also invigorated, I let it settle for a min and then I use the Rose Water Toner that will not only hydrate the skin but will also take care of any excess Vit C cream/ serum and also help penetrate deeper making it more efficient 6. whatever other product you choose, please read the Use instructions because Vit C and products with glycolic acids and other acid exfoliators and cleansers do not go well together ....

Works great! Healed my skin and got rid of my pimples fast.

Works awesome on my skin issues 🥰

I bought this to help my combination skin. It is not very aesthetically flattering, as the powder accentuates patches/peeling. I also noticed when it is applied over makeup, it looks cakey and settles in lines if your skin is more on the dry side. The puff is also pretty hard to use and becomes saturated with a lot of product quickly.

This product is a cult fave just like their drying lotion, but gets so misunderstood from the reviews I've read. It is an all over finishing powder, yes, for all skin tones! If you use it that way on melanin-blessed skin, please don't use the puff they provide. That is too heavy an application and will show opaque on your skin. Use a very fluffy, long bristled powder brush. Natural bristle holds the product, synthetic bristle let's it fly away. I like synthetic for finishing powder so it's not cakey. And for the love, not a flat-top aka kabuki or domed brush. That is what you want for a powder foundation application. The DUcare you can find here on Amazon looks like it'll do the job great! B09W957GTH <--- search that ASIN it'll pop up the D03. This is also an anti-redness/color correcting powder. That's a happy by-product of the yellowish color of the active ingredient sulfur. It is a daytime drying treatment to just- popped zits, y'all! Even the ones you could kick yourself for messing with when you're about to do your makeup and there's fluid...tap that bad boy with some of this magic Blemish Repairing Powder on a cotton swab. If it's not open, and you don't need full face prevention, and you just want to speed healing of yesterday's monster? I use a concealer brush or even an eye lining brush. Natural bristle for this trick. No fly away-lays down the product well. Boys! Treats popped and picked zits in the day, takes away redness, cotton swab application. Full face acne protection or broken out shave bumps in beard area? Big, fluffy synthetic bristle brush. Like an old fashioned shaving cream brush would work awesome for the guys. Ya dig? I don't work for Amazon or Mario B. I just have been in the beauty and spa biz a long time. I've sold, repped for, tried, sampled and bought every product and brand you can imagine! Product junkies gonna junk! ✌️💋🩷

I have used this setting powder for years. Slight sulfar smell that does not last long. I love that as a powder it will not aggravate any blemishes, rather help them.

Good product

Greenish color hides reddish zits well. Also blurs large pores. Speeds up healing zits well.
