How can I tell if my asthma inhaler worked?

Hello, I was diagnosed with asthma and got an inhaler yesterday. It is asmanex, it says that the powder is so fine that I might not be able to taste or feel it, and being the first time I used it I am really not sure if anything happened. I breathed in and felt nothing, but I am not even sure if I used it correctly or if it did anything because it says I might not taste/feel anything.

Can anyone give me any advice on whether it worked or not? Thank you!
Also, it would be helpful if anyone has any tips to using it. Thank you again!
