Review: Bourjois Loose Face Powder


Packed in a pretty Black container with pink detailing this sweet looking packaging holds 30grams of mineral enriched loose powder which is produced by Bourjois Paris and has affordable price tag RRP of $AU29. It comes in who shades the medium shade is 01. Sable Elégant, and the medium shade in 02. Rosé chic which can provides you with a light coverage of powder which is build-able.

Bourjois Power with half of the broken lid removed and the powder puff resting on the removed lid.


Likes:
  • Cute design
  • Super mattifying, keeping oiliness at bay, sets makeup
  • Easy to pick up powder though the sieve with a brush
  • The subtle Rose scent of the powder, which you can smell from the pot but not on your face, I didn't care for it at first but it grew on me, but you could say the smell is not needed.
  • The fine texture of the powder just 'melts' into your skin leaving you with an airy finish
  • Great staying power
  • Leaves you with natural looking, radiant and velvety skin 
  • Easy to forget that you are wearing makeup
  • Made in France (it's not every day you buy makeup that is made in France)
Dislikes
  • Packaging is bulky and not too user friendly
  • Can only use in summer due to the fact that the lightest colour is still too deep for me in winter
  • Lid broke after a couple of months, and it only ever saw the inside of my draw
  • Once you wash the puff, though it feels fine it doesn't pick up powder like it used to and I converted to using a brush
Do you prefer your face powder to be in a loose or compact format?
