The ELF Studio Pressed Powder is a very tiny compact power, noticeably elf-sized and smaller than your typical powder compact. Honestly, you need about two of these to get the same amount as a regular compact... so it equals 500 Pesos then. lol
The packaging is very beautiful and elegant to the touch, and there is a separate compartment for the cake and the applicator. The cotton fabric applicator feels scratchy on the skin and tends to eat up the product so it was discarded.
The powder itself is very fine, has no scent or fragrance, and perfect for allergy-prone sensitive skin. It feels very creamy and light on the skin, but looks to do well with oil control and longevity. The shade of the powder, Porcelain, is close match to my skin and does not make it look like a mask like cheaper powders. You can apply heavily and still look natural.

The only downside is that the compact is non-refillable. You have to throw everything away and buy a new one, not very friendly for the environment. People like refills because they are much cheaper too.
Great: good value for money, good overall performance, oil control, long lasting, good shades, great for photoshoots
Neutral: tiny size, light coverage, useless applicator
Against: non-refillable
