When I finally got a hold of 4u2 Cosmetics's BB Powder, I also bought their loose powder to try out. One of my realisations is that I prefer loose powder when setting liquid foundation.
I got the number 2 shade because I prefer a darker shade of face powder/foundation.
4u2 Cosmetics Dream Girl Touch Loose Powder
PhP194.00
loose powder on my face
Pros:
- very affordable at PhP194 only
- this product is alot although i don't remember how many grams this is
- has no weird scent
- blends well
- has a good staying power approximately 6 hours
- light to medium coverage
- keeps oil at bay for about 6 hours
- doesn't break me out
Cons:
- packaging looks cheap and too girly
- a bit bulky like most loose powders
I love this loose powder because it is able to even out the color of my skin tone when I am using my Missha BB cream. The BB Cream that I am currently using is lighter than my skin tone. And it doesn't help that is has a very high SPF which really gives me a white cast on flash photography. But since this loose powder is lighter than my skin tone, it balances it out.
At certain times when I don't feel like putting too much makeup or wearing heavy foundation, I use this alone. If you don't like the packaging, you can buy a sifter at the department store and just transfer it there. I'm thinking of doing that so it would be handy.
I highly suggest this loose powder especially if you are on a budget. I know I not that partial to drugstore makeup products, so when I really like something - I really really like it! I have been using this for months since I got this! I use this to set my BB Cream and my Urban Decay Naked Skin Foundation. They go well together, thankfully!

ReplyDeleteHi Pinay on the loose. I don't know any resellers kasi it's widely available here in Manila. You can try sa SM dept store :)
ReplyDeleteHi Ms.Gem! Which is better bb powder light po? This one or the compact? Thanks!
ReplyDeleteIf you want to bring it with you, go with the compact powder. If you will leave it at home lang, then you can get the loose powder. I have both and they're both ok naman :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Ms.Gem! Hmm is there a difference with the coverage?
ReplyDeleteParang same lang naman :) if you're just indoor, no need to retouch at certain times!
