I have never tried any loose powder, and only use pressed powder after foundation. Just wondering what's the difference between these two products in terms of "result"?

Could anyone do a brief comparsion for me please? thx!

Pressed face powder-a powder for on the go. used for quick touch ups an blotting shine throughout the day. can be a lil heavier depending on how u apply and how much u apply.

Loose face powder-a powder for in the morning after you foundation and/or concealer. its a powder that stays at home. its a lighter more airy and less heavy powder than pressed. it gives you a light feel rather than a caked on feel.

result 4 loose powder=light, natural, well blended look

result 4 pressed powder used in morning=heavier, more coverage, possibly slightly cakey. if u stay with pressed powder i suggest u use a powder brush to blend it or to apply it.

result 4 pressed powder on-the-go=blots shine, keeps skin matte

For in the morning after your foundation and/or concealer i think you'll get a better result if u use the loose powder and keep a pressed powder for on the go. good luck!!!

The truth is not easy to get close to. One can never be so sure they have the best handle on the truth. To believe one has the exact truth, and that one does not need to constantly update or work on getting closer to the truth, is to be closed minded and out of touch with how the world actually works. Nothing is perfect in this world and the truth is like a measurement, one can only get so close depending on the tools you have available. We must be willing to be open to the inspiration and mental efforts of others, and be willing to look at all possible sources of serious inspiration from within ourselves, and in the world around us. We also need to condition our minds to be able to handle the hard truth, through medtation/prayer, really tough mind-body exercises, and eating healthy. The truth can be gotten to by just wanting it to be true. Though wanting to find the truth or needing the truth can be used to motivate one to work at finding more of what is true. The differences between the three things you mentioned can be very hard to tell at times. That is why one has to be always searching for better ideas and answers spiritually, and keep alert to subtle clues that could lead to more insight and a more accurate picture of what is the truth.

Not much difference in result.Ususally you get more product with loose in terms of weight for the same price as pressed.

loose powder as its name says is loose...is feels like putting powder eyeshadow on your face...pressed powder is very more compact because it has a little bit of moisture in it but loose powder doesnt..they both work the same but i would recommend pressed powder if the skin on your face is a little on the dry side.

pressed powder usually comes in compacts, and is thicker, and offers more coverage.
loose face powder is in a jar or other plastic container, and it used after you put concealor on.

well you apply them differently but you get just about the same result


loose-gives off more of a airbrush effect

pressed-gives off more of a matte effect

there isn't alot of difference, pressed is for on top (like bronzer) and looses is for underneath to even complexion
