Re: long lasting pressed powder
Pressed powders usually have sheer coverage, but there are powders out there that have buildable coverage or full coverage.
If you are using pressed powder on its own (without foundation), you should apply it on a well moisturized & primed skin.
Or you can try pressed powder foundations (can be applied dry for light coverage or wet for full coverage)- they have buildable coverage and will last longer. Make Up Forever, MAC, Cover FX, and Laura Mercier have good ones.
