As a compact powder, I find this one perfect. Its
packaging is cute, very convenient. It has a different compartment for sponge
with openings for air drying. I don’t use this sponge that often though, I use a normal
powder puff for application. The sponge is good for its wet application, which
gives a different kind of finish. I absolutely love this compact!! Its coverage
is remarkable. I am using the shade "3- Natural", but before this I had its shade "4- Sand Beige", which was definitely a bit dark for me, but I liked how it looked on my skin
and how it photographed too.
Pros
SPF 26 and PA+++. I always, always, always look for makeup
with sun protection.
Great Coverage which is buildable. If your skin is not too troublesome, wearing this alone with just a dab of concealer on your blemishes will be enough.

Can be used wet and dry. I have not tried the wet method that much though.
Economic. Recently other brands have come out with similar compacts, which can also
be used wet and dry both, and those compacts cost a bomb.
Cons
Honestly, I love this compact too much. Don’t ask me its
cons. Just Don’t!
Paisa Vasool: Oh Yeah! :)
My Rating: 5/5
Okay let me check if I have ever rated any product as ‘5’ on GingerSnaps……….. NO.. I haven’t!! For the price I think this product is a fantastic buy. What I found absolutely mind-boggling is its amazing coverage. So ladies

So have you used "Maybelline Clear Glow All In One Fairness Compact Powder?" What Compact Powder are you currently using?
is it ideal 4 photographs???
ReplyDeletei mn its wid spf,, so does it gvs dat white cast o so???
I have photographed fine with it. But Titanium Dioxide, which is used in some makeup products to provide SPF does reflect light and make people look ghostly white in photographs. On the other hand some people also say that it is the bad lighting more than the SPF that brings this effect.
DeleteIf SPF does give your face a whitish cast, maybe you can avoid wearing makeup with high SPF for days when you are going to some celebration or event and you know that you are going to click lot of pics. :)
Seems like a really good compact...and at a fraction of the price of the Shiseido brightening compact I'm currently using! Have reviewed that here: http://indianshringar.blogspot.co.uk/2012/09/impulse-buy-shiseido-white-lucent.html?m=1
ReplyDeleteThink I'll buy this Maybelline one for daily wear and keep the Shiseido one for special occassions. Nice review :)
Amazing...
