Is Cover Girl make-up OK for a male beginner (PIC INCLUDED)?

I'm 18 and this year now that I'm in college I want to start wearing full make-up. I'm new to wearing powders/foundation (is there a difference?), but I wanted to know if Cover Girl Soft Honey #255 pressed powder is a good make-up for beginners?

And I am not trying to go for a flamboyant, cakey, outrageous look. Just a natural look to enhance my beauty.

I tried the Cover Girl pressed powder make-up compact last night and I really liked it. So I went and bought another compact today.

Does it look natural on me?

Doesn't look natural? And it matches my skin tone almost perfectly.

And yes I am gay, if that matters at all…
