My Take on the Product:
The product comes in a white case with an applicator and in built mirror.The product has an outer carton.The case is egg shaped and has a press lock.The packaging is sturdy and cute.The powder is in pressed form.
The applicator is very thin and gets torn easily.I hate the applicator and prefer using the makeup sponge or a brush.
The shade range is confusing and not proper.
The compact has a fine milled texture without any shimmer.It doesn’t look cakey and unnatural even if I over apply.It blends well and gives a matte finish.It adds a healthy glow and my skin doesn’t feel made-up or artificial.
The coverage is sheer to light and it doesn’t cover your minor flaws or blemishes.It does help to even out the skin.
The powder controls oil very well and gives a shine free face. It lasts for about 3 to 4 hours in my ac office and it comes off with sweat.
I hate touch ups with this to my gross face full of dirt.
It brightens my face which is not long lasting.It has a light fragrance that disappears quickly.
It also serves to set up the base makeup.Its light weight.
When I was about to finish the product, the last portion was approaching the powder in the pan broke into pieces. super hate

Rating: 4/5
Recommendation: I think it will suit all skin types. I have combination skin that is sensitive and this suits me.Dry skinned beauties may use a moisturiser before.
Final Word: Its a budget friendly product that performs well and it is perfect for everyday use.It might not work well for occasions as coverage is light.Keeps your shine free upto 4 hours.I love this.
