Initial impressions: I was sent the 2nd to lightest shade and the shade range definitely needs work on the lighter end at least. It's not that visible in the first pic, but it is about 3-4 shades too dark for me. I found that application was best when applied with the provided spong on the kinda fuzzy side. I was able to build it up to a meduim-full coverage and it layered well with itself. As for concealer, do not use a sponge if applying liquid concealer over top of this foundation, but I was surprised when I was able to blend my liquid concealer on top of this with my finger and nothing was patchy or moved! I think I'll stick to my usual powder foundation routine with doing concealer first and setting it, then applying the powder foundation to my face.

I think I'll stick to my usual powder foundation routine with doing concealer first and setting it, then applying the powder foundation to my face. It did move/got patchy when I did my nose contour (with powder) but was fine on my cheeks and forehead. It can look heavy, so do be careful with how much you apply, but I was able to get medium/full coverage without it looking too cakey. For light coverage, a brush worked well for me.Wear: It's far from waterproof and disappeared when my nose ran and it left visible marks when a few tears rolled down my cheeks today.For a powder, it did get oily fairly quickly and when I blotted it, a good amount came off my nose and left it patchy as well as a little bit on my forehead. At the end of a 12hr wear test it did just ok. The limit in my opinion is 8hrs without a good touch-up.Overall a good 6.5/10 for me.

I have oily combination skin and love the way this foundation looks on my skin. It is great at smoothing texture and over my smaller pores. I only did one layer because I like more natural looking makeup looks. I did notice that it emphasized my dry patch on my nose, but from far away not really noticeable (please reference picture), however a good regular exfoliation routine should take care of that pre-application if you do have dry spots. Probably would not recommend if you have dry skin but that's not super unique for most powder foundations. It definitely has a light-medium buildable coverage and the shade 1Y08 is slightly lighter than my actual skin tone.I absolutely love the super soft sponge that comes in the compact, it was amazing at pressing the powder ... MoreI have oily combination skin and love the way this foundation looks on my skin.

I have not yet tried the brush but it feels very soft and would highly recommendThe make up forever HD skin matte velvet foundation reminds me a lot of the loreal infallible 24 hour freshwear powder foundation that went viral a year ago. After trying both, I think I like the makeup forever a little bit more because it has a slightly smoother consistency, which gave a slightly smoother application. However if you are trying to save some money I feel like the loreal infallible is a good dupe.

I am giving this 5 stars because I have found nothing that covers like liquid foundation, stays on my face in the Florida heat and is also so easy and quick to reapply. My skin is naturally dry, and I have to layer on the serum, moisturizer and the SPF in a hot humid climate. Regular liquid foundation slides off my face. Plus no matter what I do, I am dripping in sweat as soon as I walk out the door. Therefore, I wanted something I could put on quick as soon as I pulled into work that covered. This product should be applied with a flat head brush. Surprisingly the brush that works best with it for me is the flat head brush from PUR that they designed to go with their powder foundation.This foundation is better than that one hands down, however PUR is a clean brand, ... MoreI am giving this 5 stars because I have found nothing that covers like liquid foundation, stays on my face in the Florida heat and is also so easy and quick to reapply.

Ok like I said this powder foundation is great, it lasts all day except where I tend to wipe sweat off with my hand throughout the day which is fine, because I take my brush and reapply in seconds. To be fair no makeup lasts in that area anyway if I am constantly wiping the sweat off however it is easier to reapply powder foundation throughout the day than liquid foundation. Lastly this powder foundation plays well with my other skin care and my makeup products like my NARS cream bronzer and my Stila Cream blush.

I rarely review things, but this foundation is the ABSOLUTE BEST! Colorado is dry, although this spring and summer have been insanely rainy, nevertheless this powder foundation works in any condition: 10%-99% humidity! I was shocked at both its light feeling-silk/smooth/zero feeling at all, and its coverage. I use a thicker and shirt bristled foundation brush. Swipe a good amount on and brush-buff onto my face. If I am feeling like less, I'll do one coverage. More? Several. It's as though my face has been redone. All inconsistencies covered without looking like it. Pores all but disappear. Fine lines lessened. Shine obliterated. Dry areas look great. I swear this foundation is magic. And since I've been using it for about a month, and only it, I know it works with ... MoreI rarely review things, but this foundation is the ABSOLUTE BEST!

Fine lines lessened. Shine obliterated. Dry areas look great. I swear this foundation is magic. And since I've been using it for about a month, and only it, I know it works with and in all conditions, dry, super dry, sweat, rain, cloudy. I've got a tannish-neutral color and it is perfect. From the side, no mask-like-look and I just buff it around my ears and down my neck an inch or so. A mattifying primer, something smooth and seamless is very important for the foundation to not get overly absorbed although I tried it before a jog, recently, and it was just fine-sans primer. Waterproof and will not cause breakouts. In fact,I think it's kept zits away! I do use great facial products so that helps but I swear, this foundation is the best! The primer I use is NYX-Shine Killer with charcoal. These 2 products together have my skin looking nearly perfect for about 9 hours. Well, that's as long as I have makeup on, anyways. I'd rate it 10 stars if I could! I am 50 come January, too, for reference.
After using this product for the first couple days I am super super happy with my results! I got this as a complimentary sample from influnster and let me tell you I'm beyond words happy I got choose to try it! I am not the one to wear a powder foundation (but let me tell you this has changed my mind) I have acne and acne scars with some dark spots on my face and with this you can barely see or tell they are even there! It's also hard to find my shade of color but this one matched perfect! I would highly recommend this product to anyone! It is light weight, barely any scent at all, and it works great on combination skin! Even on oily skin I think this would work perfectly for you! I'm not one to usually want to try new things (scared of what it will do to my face ... MoreAfter using this product for the first couple days I am super super happy with my results!

But I don't have that issue with this one) I would give a 100+ score and if I could give more then 5 stars I definitely would! Try it I promise it want disappoint and the price is well worth it! I love the fact it comes with a sponge to help put it on and the compact has a camera (love the fact I can store it in my pocket book & it doesn't take much room)
There are things I really liked about the HD Skin Matte Velvet 24 HR Blurring Powder Foundation that I received free from Makeup Forever and Influenster in exchange for my review, but there are also things that I don’t think lives up to the products claims.I have mature skin and a little rosacea, this product was not a good fit for me as a foundation powder. It did not create a good coverage and it did not last 24 hours. It did settle into fine lines and emphasize those lines, which is not a look I want.When wearing as a setting powder over facial serums and foundations, it worked ok. It still heavily settled into the fine lines but it did do a great job of creating a setting finish both with a brush and the applicator.I really like the case that the powder ... MoreThere are things I really liked about the HD Skin Matte Velvet 24 HR Blurring Powder Foundation that I received free from Makeup Forever and Influenster in exchange for my review, but there are also things that I don’t think lives up to the products claims.I have mature skin and a little rosacea, this product was not a good fit for me as a foundation powder.

The compact is rectangular and feels substantial. The full size great mirror alone keeps this compact with me everywhere I go. The sponge that it comes with has two sides that are supposed to apply the powder differently, however I haven’t noticed a difference.So to summarize, it’s an okay powder for mature skin, if you use it as a setting powder. It does easily settle into fine lines and wrinkles, so go lighter in those areas. The compact itself is a great tool to your makeup bag.
I have a love/hate relationship with MUFE. by the time I find a product of theirs that I love, they change it. I have used the liquid HD foundation and I do like it, but I want more of a matt finish, so I found the Velvet Matte powder in the all black packaging and thought it looked and felt great on me in the shade R220 (same as the liquid) it was creamy and medium coverage, matte but not dry. It was great!I repurchased that formula 3 times because I liked the look it gave me even though the packaging itself was inconvenient and the product broke inside easily and it was a giant mess. I recently went into a local sephora shop to repurchase and found it has been reformulated. I purchased the new version in the stated equivalent color (R220 is now 1R02) and I do not ... MoreI have a love/hate relationship with MUFE. by the time I find a product of theirs that I love, they change it.

The color is an ok match but the new formula is no longer creamy and blendable, its now more chalky and seems to sit on top of my skin with less coverage than the pervious formula. This is an expensive product for it to be just like a sheer, dry drug store powder.The new formula doesn't cover or feel "velvety" like the old one. This feels too light and patchy. I will not be repurchasing this product.
The color I received was 102 and I probably should have received the shade lighter at 1N00, at least for the winter. This one draws a little more pinky than my skin tone, but shade wise matches great. They have a good selection of shades for all different skin tones, I just wish they had one lighter than 1N0O as that shade isn't light enough for my mother. That being said, usually they don't go light enough to even match my skin tone so well, so I'm very happy with that. The powder itself applies super well and looks pretty natural. It didn't absorb my face oils weird or shift around on my face. It stayed out and looked flawless all night. I usually use bare minerals loose powder foundation, but I may switch to this one for at least indoor use, as I'm not sure that ... MoreThe color I received was 102 and I probably should have received the shade lighter at 1N00, at least for the winter.

I spent DECADES trying to find the best powder foundation and had finally found it with the previous version. I'm so bummed I didn't just repurchase several of that version before it was discontinued. I honestly didn't think this version would be so wrong for me. First, trying to order the same shade as I used in the previous version was impossible. I ended up chatting with a Sephora rep and was given what was supposedly the exact shade as the previous one, despite the whole shade range being completely different. You would think a brand would continue using the same shade range for all products despite it being a new product. Sadly, the shade the rep gave me was so wrong. I knew immediately upon opening it. I hate how the product would be discarded if I returned it ... MoreI spent DECADES trying to find the best powder foundation and had finally found it with the previous version.

I hate how the product would be discarded if I returned it so had my 17 y/o try it. She is slightly darker than I am. It was too dark for her too but it could work for her if she spends more time out in the sun and gets a tan. I ended up trying again to repurchase in a shade I thought would be equivalent to the previous version. It's a better shade match, but I still don't care for this new product. It's chalky and makes it completely obvious I'm wearing powder foundation. The previous version blending into my skin perfectly and looked flawless. I'm 41 y/o and have spent the first 35 yrs of my life being stupid and never wearing sunscreen. I would literally go to the tanning bed every day and then go to the pool or lake immediately after during my teenage years. Needless to say, I am now the miserable owner of way too many wrinkles and tons of sun damage from the GA and FL sun. This new version does nothing bit excentuate all my pore, wrinkles, and sun damage. I wish they would bring bad the previous version since so many have also found this new one completely wrong for themselves.
I purchased this looking for something sheer and matte, I don't like heavy coverage and tinted moisturizers and sheer foundations tend to be dewy which doesn't work with oily skin. I've been pleased with this, I apply it with a synthetic, loosely dense kabuki brush and it gives me just the right amount of coverage. It is buildable if you prefer heavier coverage. I think this works best for oily skin or humid environments, when I wear it to head straight into work which is air conditioned I find it looks best after an hour or two, beforehand it looks a little too 'flat' and dry. Surprisingly this is the only foundation I've worn so far that looks good despite flakiness from my tretinoin, I suppose because it can be applied so gently without disturbing the skin. ... MoreI purchased this looking for something sheer and matte, I don't like heavy coverage and tinted moisturizers and sheer foundations tend to be dewy which doesn't work with oily skin.

Anything that involves rubbing or tugging at the skin makes flakes worse. I see some people saying it has been reformulated and I can't speak to that but I've owned mine for about 6 months and I think it is good quality, since it can't really be sampled though I'd definitely test it at a local Sephora or other cosmetics boutique. It is expensive relative to drugstore foundations but powder foundations tend to last forever so I can accept the price. This plays well with my other products (MAC concealer, YSL Touche Eclat for undereyes and MUFE HD Blush).
