WnW just hit department stores in August 2013 by the time I bought the WnW Coverall Pressed Powder in Medium. The packaging is bare and minimalist, but the compact was well sealed for tamper-proof protection.
The powder has a smooth texture and finishes with a great look whether used alone or to set foundation. It has good oil control and performance, I only use it maximum of twice a day. Medium is a beautiful light golden-beige shade and looks a little warmer on my skin. It does oxidize/darken quickly with a slight bronzed effect. Just to be safe, you can buy a shade that's one tone lighter than your actual skin tone. Maybe I'll get Light-Medium next time.
It's a good performer, but still I think a bit pricey. Local brands can give better results for a third of the price!
Great: shade range, overall performance
Neutral: quickly oxidizes
Against: bare minimalist design (no mirror or applicator), a bit pricey
