Two shades you get are Naturally beige and Warm beige. I have the first one. This was a new release at the Superdrug NYC counter. They had just two shades but yet this was so tempting, the texture was super smooth. The darker shade looked more orange and since I only dust it with a light hand, I picked up the pale color.

The container is very plastic-ky, not fun at all, it click locks no doubt, you could carry it around but it is not much fun to open and flaunt. There is a semi-circular mirror in it and another same shaped puff that is like a soft sponge. You could very well use it for dab-application of powder.

The powder is very very smooth like claimed, almost velvety,this blurs the skin problems to an extent and texture too feels velvety. The powder is so soft that it needs a light hand and a soft brush to be used with. Think I would hit pan on this soon! The texture reminds me of Lotus Herbals Eco Stay compacts. The powder is matte, it makes skin shine-free and also sets foundation. The color matches me when worn lightly. The powder is my current favorite due to the texture.I do not think this oxidizes at all. The pan is breakage prone so be careful.

This lasted on me around 4 hours that it kept me shine free for more than 4 hours, on my combination skin. The powder literally adds brightness like claimed and the coverage is medium and brilliant for a compact. I think lighter, less blemished and scarred skin would love to use it, and skip foundation. It kind of blurs pores but does nothing for scars in my case. Overall, super impressive powder in terms of texture, coverage,brightness and mattifying nature.

IMBB rating:
4.9/5 (due to container quality.) It is true to all the claims.
