What's the difference between ';Pressed Face Powder'; & ';Loose Face Powder';?

I have never tried any loose powder, and only use pressed powder after foundation. Just wondering what's the difference between these two products in terms of ';result';?





Could anyone do a brief comparsion for me please? thx!What's the difference between ';Pressed Face Powder'; %26amp; ';Loose Face Powder';?
Pressed face powder-a powder for on the go. used for quick touch ups an blotting shine throughout the day. can be a lil heavier depending on how u apply and how much u apply.





Loose face powder-a powder for in the morning after you foundation and/or concealer. its a powder that stays at home. its a lighter more airy and less heavy powder than pressed. it gives you a light feel rather than a caked on feel.





result 4 loose powder=light, natural, well blended look





result 4 pressed powder used in morning=heavier, more coverage, possibly slightly cakey. if u stay with pressed powder i suggest u use a powder brush to blend it or to apply it.





result 4 pressed powder on-the-go=blots shine, keeps skin matte





For in the morning after your foundation and/or concealer i think you'll get a better result if u use the loose powder and keep a pressed powder for on the go. good luck!!!What's the difference between ';Pressed Face Powder'; %26amp; ';Loose Face Powder';?
loose powder as its name says is loose...is feels like putting powder eyeshadow on your face...pressed powder is very more compact because it has a little bit of moisture in it but loose powder doesnt..they both work the same but i would recommend pressed powder if the skin on your face is a little on the dry side.
pressed powder usually comes in compacts, and is thicker, and offers more coverage.


loose face powder is in a jar or other plastic container, and it used after you put concealor on.
Not much difference in result.Ususally you get more product with loose in terms of weight for the same price as pressed.
well you apply them differently but you get just about the same result








loose-gives off more of a airbrush effect





pressed-gives off more of a matte effect
Too good to apply it all over the neck %26amp; the shoulders...
pressed one is easy to use
there isn't alot of difference, pressed is for on top (like bronzer) and looses is for underneath to even complexion
