Creme Puff Compact Powder - 59 Gay Whisper

Very good face powder I have used this for some time now, and good price.

I usually apply this on top of primer, and it stays on for the whole day. I use "Translucent", which doesn't look translucent in the container (looks a bit too tan in colour for a translucent powder to me), but turns out to be translucent on me - fyi I have medium, neutral toned skin, so maybe that's why it doesn't show up much on my skin. It gives me a nice, smooth, matte look on my skin and evens out my skin tone. I can understand why some others here have commented the powder is too dark - if you are very fair, maybe it might show up a bit. Now the only issues with this powder is the scent - it reminds me of old lady perfume, for some reason. And the applicator that comes in the container is rubbish. I don't use it at all. I use a fluffy large powder brush instead. When I tried using the included applicator, it delivered too much product, which settled into fine lines on my skin (I am 40+ yrs old). This didn't happen when I used the powder brush to apply it on my skin though. It went on very smooth, didn't settle into fine lines. Thankfully it doesn't require re-application during the day for me (probably helped by the fact I use primer under this powder, so if you don't use some sort of primer or something, it may not be so long-lasting and you may have to reapply), so this is not a problem to me. I also don't use foundation, so maybe that's why I don't need to reapply. I just powder this over my primer. Foundation tends to make my skin oilier over the course of the day. I think if I used foundation, I might have to reapply. But I believe this powder is good for matte-ifying oily patches on the skin because it contains talc as a main ingredient. Overall, I'd say this powder is great value for me. For under £5, this works as well on my face as my £66 Chantecaille compact makeup powder. Okay it works as well, though certainly appears cheap and cheerful. For instance, it is a lot more "dusty" than my higher end Chantecaille powder makeup. My makeup brush picks up lot of dusty particles that fly around when I use this powder, whereas my high end powder doesn't do that at all. It also has a sort of old lady cosmetics smell... I think it might be lilac or rose water? Not sure. I don't smell it after applying it though, it's just apparent during application. That's the extent to which the difference lies. The way this powder looks on me is no worse than my high end powder. I'm definitely going to continue buying it from now on.

The translucent was quite heavy and darker than expected. Not as light on the skin as per usual for MF.

Been using this powder for many years won’t use anything else Keeps my foundation on all day

Delivery was fast Powder is a mess and unusable , needs to be placed better so it doesn’t get ruined and is unusable trying to get a refund from the seller

Brilliant thank you

Absolutely beautiful face powder. I can see now why this has never been discontinued. This goes on like a dream and gives your skin a HD look, incredibly smooth and luxurious. I have a more expensive LG mineral one but this outshine's this. My only gripe is the puff, do not use. Instead use a large powder brush to apply. Also the cost in amazing. Please but it and you will see.

I find this product very good.

Älskar produkten men locket var sprucket och det hade lossnat plastbitar från puderasken när jag packade ut varan. Tråkigt.

Good

Das Produk kam in zerstörter Dose (eine Ecke rausgebrochen, die war dann auch nicht mehr dabei) komplett zerkrümelt hier an. Kann ich so nicht gebrauchen, leider auch nicht zurückgeben. Ich muß in Zukunft besser auf Verkäufer achten, auch wenn Artikel selten sind. Amazon alleine reicht nicht als Garantie. Schade um die Welt!

great powder! I've been using it for several years now.

Nie chce mi się bawić w zwroty, ale to mój ostatni zakup kosmetyków w Amazon. Jak można wysłać prasowany puder bez żadnego zabezpieczenia?
