This goes on easily, but doesn't give as much coverage as it claims. Also, once you've used it for a while it starts to break up and lumps of it fall out of the compact. And because it more than just a powder. it's really difficult to get out if it goes onto your clothes.......just what you need when you're in a burry in the morning - not ! So I end up throwing half of it away, which makes it very expensive.
