Maybelline Clear Smooth Shine Free Face Powder
Whilst
holidaying in Bali about eight months ago, I picked up this product on a whim
in a department store for about AU$4.00 or something crazy like that.
Pros:
This powder does live up to its name in terms of having a smooth consistency; the
texture is gorgeous especially considering its incredibly small price tag. It
could be worn by itself as a light coverage powder or on top of foundation to
set it and provide greater coverage. The packaging is also very cute as it is a
sea foam/light turquoise and is very compact so it would be great for travelling.
Cons: Although
it claims to leave a ‘shine free face’, its oil control capabilities are not
top notch. I find that after a mere few hours my skin feels and appears
oily. Personally, the colour match isn’t
perfect, but I can’t exactly blame the product for my poor colour choice. Something
that also might be worth mentioning is that you don’t get a lot of actual
product in the compact but as I said, I only paid $4.00 so I’m not complaining.
In
order to summarise this synopsis of the Maybelline Clear Smooth Powder, I would
only recommended it to those who do not have oily skin or those who wish to
wear it solo as a light coverage powder foundation, as it has a lovely texture
and would suit many who have skin with a
yellow undertone. I personally will not
be repurchasing this powder although I probably will use the remaining product
in the cooler months or to events where I don’t want to take expensive products
such as stage productions; when I need a darker powder to set foundation and
give a fuller coverage.
Side Note: I usually would posta photo of my own personal product but to be honest mine is looking a little bit worse for wear, please forgive me?
