e.l.f. Studio High Definition Powder in Sheer

e.l.f. Studio HD Powder in Sheer is a white powder that goes on completely translucent. There are several things to like about this powder, and a few cons that we will get to in a minute. The pros: this powder is a great powder to set your foundation and concealer, as well as keep oil at bay. It has an unbelievably smooth and silky texture that goes on flawlessly. I love that it is translucent, so if you've had a hard time finding a powder to match your skin tone, give Sheer a try. The cons: the packaging and price point. The packaging is more bulky than it needs to be. I would have preferred the package to just be round, and cut out the excess empty area from the corners that just doesn't need to be there. The price, while $6 is reasonable for a setting powder, it's a bit more than an e.l.f. product should be in my opinion. You are getting 0.28 oz for $6, while Dermablend translucent setting powder is $26 for 1 oz. I know that $6 is a lot easier to spend on powder than $26, however it doesn't make a lot of sense to me to market a brand like e.l.f. as being a more budget friendly and yet charge almost the same amount per ounce as a higher end brand does. That being said, I think this powder does a great job and is every bit as good as some higher end brands.

The jar is a screw top lid that hold the contents in place quite well. Inside is housed a little velour pouf that is remarkably soft. I like the pouf so much that if these were sold individually, I would buy several backups. I like to use it to pat on the powder all over my face, and then use a powder brush to dust off the excess.

The sifter inside the jar is quite nice. It is much sturdier than the sifter in Covergirl powder. It is very easy to get the amount of product you need, and the rest just falls back into the holes.

All in all, I like this powder. It does its job, and well at that. Ideally, $5 would be a better price for it, although it does have the quality to justify the price. This powder retails for $6 for 0.28 oz. Would I repurchase? Yes.

I hope my review was helpful. Have a beautiful afternoon!
