Peter Thomas Roth is generally known for their excellent skin care products instead of cosmetics. But now they have a nice combo cosmetic/skin care powder, Peter Thomas Roth Un-Wrinkle Pressed Powder. It also had an appearance in the Get Smart movie, starring Steve Carell and Anne Hathaway.
From the company:
The new powder is lightweight, translucent and instantly improves the overall look of the skin while delivering anti-aging peptides and neuropeptides, which helps to reduce the appearance of fine lines and deep wrinkles. The powder blends seamlessly for a flawless, luminous finish, helping skin retain moisture while working to set makeup. The key anti-aging ingredient behind the product is SYN-AKE – a synthetic neuropeptide that mimics the wrinkle relaxing properties of snake venom from the Brazilian Viper.
I gave it a try and found it to be pretty nice. The powder is finely milled and goes on smooth. The black compact is also attractive, with a flip up compartment for the pad and an interior mirror. So as a powder alone, it is rather nice--that it also has anti-aging properties is a bonus! Overall, it is nice stuff!

Sounds like a cool product! I’m curious, what did you think of the coverage? Good for pores?
The coverage is fairly sheer. I used it as a finishing powder more than alone. Although I did try it by itself one day and found that it absorbed oil fairly well and provided a nice basic, but sheer, coverage.

I like to use this powder more as a finishing powder, also. I really like the finish when I apply with the MAC 187 brush.
