Yes, it's just a talc power. It's an old beauty trick. I use their pure cornstarch power with lavender and an old fashion powder puff like my grandmother's.

Yes. I think it can control your oily face but it doesn't heal your pimples.

I guess you can. You can also try Milk of Magnesia as a primer. I've started using it and I have a lot of oil and a lot of acne. It keeps me matte all day and it's calming down my skin.

I've used it in a pinch when I'm not near a real setting powder and it's alright! it certainly shouldn't bother your skin, at least.

I would try it, if you've tried everything else and it doesn't work, why not try it??:p haha.

Talc can cause some people to break out. Cornstarch might be a better alternative.
I'm really oily and I've found that Rimmel's Stay Matte and UD's De-Slick do wonders for me. Also, make sure you're moisturizing at night. I use coconut oil, and making sure my skin is moisturized has helped my oiliness during the day.

Derma-E makes a Problem Skin Moisturizer that really works too.

It's a carcinogenic and shouldn't be used near the nose and mouth, so no.

I second that Miaow M.

Not an everyday fix. It can clog your pores and unless you're pale, can also leave a white cast. Cornstarch is a better alternative. And an even better alternative is an actual powder haha, you can get cheap good ones. NYC Loose face powder is $2 and hasnt ever broken me out.
Powder doesn't heal your pimples, there are a million and one treatments Beautylish users can give ya for that department. Look for a powder that won't make the acne worse, instead of looking for one that'll heal it. :)

Talc is not good for you, use cornstarch.
