I've already hit the pan on my Maybelline Clear Smooth Extra Shine Free Powder Foundation! So, it's high time for me to do a review on it.
I've already tried using the medium coverage variant and I really liked it. You check my review HERE. That's when I decided to try this variant as well. And to my surprise it became my favorite.
What I don't like...

What I like about it...
* inexpensive, very budget friendly especially for a powder foundation
* has SPF 20 PA++, which means more protection for your skin
* High Coverage, it really evens out my skin tone and covers blemishes
* I love the smooth and very fine texture of the powder
* Stays really long, in my experience it started to fade after 6 hours
* Doesn't look cakey nor leave white casts even when I sweat
* has a lightweight texture, I don't feel like I'm wearing a mask
* didn't give me any breakouts or allergies
* matte finish
What I don't like...
* The sponge that came with it could use an upgrade. It's really not that bad, but I just use my powder brush for a smoother finish.
* The shade honey is slightly lighter than my natural skin tone but it's the closest shade I could find.
My rating: 4 / 5
Edit: I take back what I said, this still is NOT my HG face powder, so I'm holding off on my repurchase. The reason, my face looked really light on photos, I still have yet to find a powder that fits my skin tone perfectly!

I use this powder everyday and it's just awesome. I've also used this on my "No Makeup" makeup look which you can check HERE.
This is it for now.
Cheerios!
