Very lightweight! I have dry flaking skin, and my first time using this was not nice as it was meant to produce matte effect, which is not for dry skin. However, after using moisturizer and SPF in the morning, this is all I need for covering that shining face for the rest of the day, giving a very soft, smooth and matte feeling without whitening my face unnaturally. So in conclusion, this powder is not for dry skin, but if you use moisturizer before applying the powder then it's perfect. You also want to use a brush to apply since the puff doesn't really work well.
