Question:

What should you use to apply a pressed powder?

Also, is loose powder or pressed powder better for covering up discoloration?

Answer:

I think loose powder is better because I read or heard that the pressed kind is compressed together with an oil. So why put oil back your face when you're trying to control shine. Also I think a pressed powder holds bacteria. Yuck!
brush or compact pad...loose powder is better....u can apply more or less if u want...pressed powder is more confined...?
A pressed powder can be applied with either a brush or a sponge. Both loose and pressed powders are used to set foundation and blot the shine. A pressed powder is what you would use throughout the day as a touchup. If you are looking for something that covers up discoloration, I suggest using a powder foundation with a sponge. This would provide enough coverage to conceal discoloration but still look natural. Hope this helps : )
