Here are all my reviews:

I prefer finer powders, and this one tends to clump up a bit. I also got the wrong color, but in the right color, it would've worked fine in terms of coverage. It's has pretty good coverage, and for my combination-oily skin, I would recommend wearing it alone instead of with liquid foundation. I live in a humid, hot area and the combination of liquid foundation & powder = cakey mess. So it's pretty good on its own.

It's pricey for my budget, but it's a great pressed powder and I always run out of it. It's got a silky smooth finish, and I find it easier to use a brush instead of the sponge to apply it over my foundation.

Bobbi Brown makes good colors, and it's quite easy to apply. However, it does nothing to reduce the shine on my face, even after I use my compact powder (also from BB).

Suitable for light-medium coverage only, a bit scratchy and it sheds quite a bit. Not sure if I'll get it again.

I don't think this suits Asian skins as it's got too much of a red tint to it (I'm Asian and I looked a bit weird with this). Luckily I got it as a sample. Not one of my favorites.

It has a subtle sweet scent which isn't too overpowering. Very pleasant and a good whiff of it during the work day does make me feel a bit more uplifted. Definitely one of my favorites.

I got this in the starter kit and it is flat-out amazing. Really great concealing power, and I even cheat sometimes by using it with my eyeshadow. It's quite firm, doesn't shed, and works great!

I was itching to get my hands on it so badly that once I got it, I jumped for joy! (It's not available where I live). I like how I don't break out and I don't look cakey. It was very natural, and I really looked more even-toned. However, I was expecting a bit more coverage (although this product is touted to make you look natural as opposed to 'Chick, you're wearing make-up aren't you?') and I do get shiny. I'll probably try it with a primer and repost a review again. That being said, buying this in the starter kit with the brushes was a pretty good buy.

Heaps of fun to watch the foam and feel the grains scrub away the muck on my face! It's definitely the old-school kind of scrub with visible grains, and you don't have to use much - a pea-sized squeeze suffices. It's my Sunday treat and my skin feels very smooth, and my face stays matte for longer.

I use this as a day serum to complement my night serum (I use Advance Night Repair from Estee Lauder) and it's made my pimple scars (the brown marks) fade quicker. It absorbs quite fast and one pump is enough for me. I don't see a great effect and probably should use it at night, but so far I'm happy with it. I like how my skin feels silky after application.
