Catrice Skin Finish Compact Powder
Hello Beauties!!
Today I’ll be reviewing another favorite of mine which I am wearing every single day since the past few weeks! I have combination to oily skin and compacts are essential in my vanity! I always carry one in my handbag to do touch-ups during the day time. After my Essence Compact got over, I started using Catrice Skin Finish Powder compact and I am so impressed! Its one of the best compacts I have used! So let’s get down to the review 🙂
What Does Catrice say about Skin Finish Powder:
Made for beautiful subtleties. This mattifying compact powder contains light-reflecting pigments and provides your skin with a silky-matt yet radiant glow. The ultra-soft texture leaves your skin feeling wonderfully pleasant – all day long.  Dermatologically tested.
My Take on Catrice Skin Finish Compact Powder:
I have been using this since the past few weeks and it suits me perfectly! It comes in 6 shades and I am sure everyone will find their shade as the powder itself goes on very transparent on the skin and does not add much color, but it mattifies my oily to combination skin without making it dull and lifeless and brightens up! The shade I have is 03 Honey Beige and I am NC40-42 in MAC. So, if you want something to even out your complexion, then this is not for you, but if you have perfect skin without any pigmentation and spots, then definitely you can go for this!
Initially, I could not see any light reflecting particles, but later on, I studied my face in the mirror very closely and indeed there were so many tiny little particles which brightens up the skin. The particles are so small that you actually have to strain your eyes to see them which is perfect as it does not make you look like disco ball or over the top!
The packaging is quite classy and I totally love it! It shuts quite tight, so you can easily carry along it in your handbag. The staying powder is simply amazing! I use it every morning around 8:30 and even after lunch my face looks quite bright and not oily at all! It controls oil and shine for 5 to 6 hours on me which is fabulous! I have acne-prone skin and never once it has broken out me and plus it is dermatologically tested and oil free!
See how it brighten’s up the skin!
