Watch out for looking cakey
Had this powder more than a year but I think the color is a bit to pink on me with warm undertones. I tried it first in Sweden during winter NC37, it would just not work, I thought I was too pale. But now I'm NC40 and it's still just a tad too pink on me. It does have a very silky,smooth texture which I love..but also an obvious smell. My face doesn't like its products to be strong fragranced so this turned me off a bit. Coverage is quite good I must say, but If you put to much on it will look cakey I promise. So use with care if you try it. It mattifies the oil in your face at first, but not for long, requires many touch ups. Packaging is bleeeh!
Awesome drugstore powder!
I've heard a lot of good things about this powder so I finally threw in the towel to purchase it. When I first looked at the powder in the pan, it looked so smooth as if it was very finely milled. I just picked up the same shade of the liquid foundation that suits my skintone which was caramel beige. I have to say that this is by far the best drugstore powder I've ever tried. I have the MAC Studio Careblend powder and this L'Oreal powder makes my face look flawless, just like the Careblend! It goes on just as smooth and silky as it looks. I got great coverage with this powder so a little bit of product goes a long way. I would say this is way better than the Maybelline Fit Me powder. Another plus is that there are many different shades to choose from with 3 selections of undertones, warm, cool and neutral. This powder did not look cakey on my face at all, it gave me a matte finish which I love. The only thing I do not like about this product is the packaging. I wish the mirror wasn't on the other side because it's kinda awkward having to go back and forth if you're trying to use the mirror. However, it's not really a biggie for me because I really love the product itself. If you're looking for a really good drugstore powder I would totally recommend this!
