The only drawback to this product is that it lasts a long, long time since we use so little at a time. It does exactly what is described. I've had one for several years and just now I need to be shopping for a new jar. The applicator holds on to the powder, so nothing is lost and we decide how much goes on. Caution, however, they mean what they say -- a little goes a very long way!! If you are living frugal, this is an excellent choice.
