Max Factor Cream Puff Pressed Compact Powder - 75 Golden, 21 g

I usually apply this on top of primer, and it stays on for the whole day. I use "Translucent", which doesn't look translucent in the container (looks a bit too tan in colour for a translucent powder to me), but turns out to be translucent on me - fyi I have medium, neutral toned skin, so maybe that's why it doesn't show up much on my skin. It gives me a nice, smooth, matte look on my skin and evens out my skin tone. I can understand why some others here have commented the powder is too dark - if you are very fair, maybe it might show up a bit. Now the only issues with this powder is the scent - it reminds me of old lady perfume, for some reason. And the applicator that comes in the container is rubbish. I don't use it at all. I use a fluffy large powder brush instead. When I tried using the included applicator, it delivered too much product, which settled into fine lines on my skin (I am 40+ yrs old). This didn't happen when I used the powder brush to apply it on my skin though. It went on very smooth, didn't settle into fine lines. Thankfully it doesn't require re-application during the day for me (probably helped by the fact I use primer under this powder, so if you don't use some sort of primer or something, it may not be so long-lasting and you may have to reapply), so this is not a problem to me. I also don't use foundation, so maybe that's why I don't need to reapply. I just powder this over my primer. Foundation tends to make my skin oilier over the course of the day. I think if I used foundation, I might have to reapply. But I believe this powder is good for matte-ifying oily patches on the skin because it contains talc as a main ingredient. Overall, I'd say this powder is great value for me. For under £5, this works as well on my face as my £66 Chantecaille compact makeup powder. Okay it works as well, though certainly appears cheap and cheerful. For instance, it is a lot more "dusty" than my higher end Chantecaille powder makeup. My makeup brush picks up lot of dusty particles that fly around when I use this powder, whereas my high end powder doesn't do that at all. It also has a sort of old lady cosmetics smell... I think it might be lilac or rose water? Not sure. I don't smell it after applying it though, it's just apparent during application. That's the extent to which the difference lies. The way this powder looks on me is no worse than my high end powder. I'm definitely going to continue buying it from now on.

Great product, speedy delivery very happy.

Great price with fast delivery

Good quality product Great price

Love this face powder. Stays put all day and doesn’t look caked on

Never changes. Ive been using for years.

Lovely smooth face powder. Love the colour At that price its a winner

Bought for a lady of a certain "vintage". She loves it but, couldn't get it anywhere locally. Amazon saved the day!

Gebruik het al jaren. Ondanks de krimpflatie, nog steeds een fijn product. Weer met een sponsje!!!!

I really loved it❤️❤️

Gebruik deze al wel 30 jaar. Helaas niet de kleur Gay Whisper. Maar deze komt heel dichtbij.

Ich benutze die seit Jahren. Super Deckung. Kann man als Powder benutzen , oder wenn man sponge feucht macht als Creme Powder.

Ottima cipria, coprente quanto basta per non fare l’effetto “cerone”, molto compatta e soprattutto dal Finish matt. Spedizione e consegna impeccabili come sempre, sicuramente la consiglio e la riacquisterò, ma di un tono più scuro perché questo risulta un po’ troppo chiaro.
