7 Worst PowdersSome powders will make your face look orange, cakey, or worse -- break out. Here are readers' most hated powders. Consider yourself officially warned |
3 of 8
Why: Readers find this powder "too shimmery for everyday" use as no one "[wants] to sparkle all the time." One reader says, "whenever I wear this and step out into the sun, I get negative comments about the intense shimmer." Others complain that this powder is "not finely milled" making it "very noticeable in pictures." Facebookers beware.

I'm not wild about Raw powder; thanks for letting me know that Laura Mercier's brightening powder is not all it's claimed to be!

Drug store mineral foundations are crap and most contain chemicals anyway. I wear mineral foundation from Ocean Mist Cosmetics (I've been wear MM for 10 years and this is the BEST I've found and I've tried them all). Though one complaint I've seen almost constantly is people saying a mineral foundation is cakey. Let me tell you this, if you try multiple mineral foundations and they all cake... YOU ARE DOING IT WRONG.

it surprises me that even if these products are "the worst", the rating is still over 6! so not really a "fail"?!

The elf foundation does nothing at all for coverage. Not gonna bother trying the others listed!

I actually agree here, I have tried a lot of those powders listed, and was not happy with any of them.
