Beauty talk: Part 2 of my review of PONDS compact powder with swatch

 

    As per request by sugar sugar, here’s how the PONDS’s compact powder looks on “canvas” for a oily skin lady like me.

   

  I got the rosy beige shade, retails for P149, in my first post I wrote P200 which was the wrong price-sorry about that.

  Here’s me after 8 hours of work without retouching yet

   The shine doesn’t show much but  and you can definitely notice some dry and red patches on my face.

         *  Before and after l-r: no powder, with PONDS compact powder in rosy beige

        I think you can definitely see the difference, it holds up for at least 3 hours, not more than that (in my skin though) as I’m not sure how results would be with others. But it’s a pretty good affordable powder for touch ups or at home when the BF suddenly pays a surprise visit. hehe

  I’ve already made a review here

 

Till then!

Beauty talk: PONDS Compact powder review

  Beauty post…
    I always tell myself that I will let my skin breathe specially on my rest days, but when I have to do the groceries or buy some stuff outside I’d still want to look presentable in front of people. It’s not being vain or anything really, but with the lack of sleep, I sometimes look really haggard (or so I think). Well anyway, enough babbling.
  
I have this thing to make sure I have powder on my face, one for going out (usual days) and for home (when I have to go to the grocery). So I bought myself a PONDS compact powder and I’m actually impressed.



  
   
Swatch..
 
    I know it’s rather hard to see, I’ll try to make a decent post next time.  This would probably be my staple home compact powder. I don’t want to use expensive powder when I just have to stay home or buy something outside

Overall…
  
PROS:

• gives a decent coverage
• inexpensive P149.75 at beauty counters
• has satin finish
• comes with a decent sponge applicator
• good for retouching
• available in 2 shades

  CONS:

•  not long lasting – but hey since I only use it at home I don’t really mind.
• the smell can be irritating for others

   Will I buy again? Most definitely, YES!
  
Really up to you guys if you want to purchase or not, are you the type who buys a different set of powder for going out and for home?
  
Till then!
