I do have combination skin and light skin tone....It goes on nicely, covers very well, and just keeps my makeup looking clean. The only con I can find is that this sneaky little powder has all of these awesome light reflectors in it so when you're doing your makeup in front of a makeup mirror with lights, it looks absolutely fab, but as soon as those lights turn off, you realize you look like a reverse panda and you need to blend blend blend before going out in public haha.
