Great Setting Powder???

I set my foundation w/MAC's sheer mystery powder in Dark Secret. Perfect finish, perfect color = perfect look and result. Bought several from last year's Stylistics collection (through a CCO CP from a fellow Specktra member and GBNF.)

Have tried BE tinted mineral veil and MAC's Dark blot powder. They did not work for me.

I'm NW45, for reference.

So I tried the Tinted MV sample that Tish sent me (thanks again!) and I don't know if it is love at first sight. I have to keep playing around with it. I do however like the Stila Hydrating Finishing Powder. It gives a fresh look to the face and as far as I can tell it's not ashy either. I think it's a keeper. I apply it with a light hand with my Stila powder brush, btw. I am going to tinker with the BE MV a little more thought. What type of brush to you all use to apply it?

I still really want to try the Becca powders...

^^ Never tried the Stila Powder I will have to try that one next as well

The tinted is not my fav...I prefer the Plain Mineral Veil

Really? Why is that?

Also for those of you with lighter complexions, the Too Faced Powder was nice too, but I feared it would be ashy.

The only thing about the Stila powder is that you don't get a ton of product.

I think only because I am just so in love with the plain that I never really give the Tinted a try...I also have Warmth in BE and I don't use it much either. It seems the White gives a more dewy look
