Hi loves! Bourjois Silk Edition compact powder (9 g) is new edition to my powder collection and it I have to say its now one of my favorite powders to use. I have it in shade 51 Porcelain, which is a perfect match for me.
The compact of this beauty is sleek and black :) Inside you find a nice size mirror, which rotates and a silky powder (there was applicator to apply the powder, but I like to use a brush). Its in perfect size to carry in my handbag.
The texture of this powder is so silky and creamy to the touch. Its easy to a apply it with a powder brush and it leaves my skin matte. I apply it mostly on the T-zone.
This Bourjois powder has some big claims. It smooths pores and fine lines, evens skin tone and 8 hour matte finish. I was mostly interested being matte for 8 hours :) Its also is non drying and tested under dermatological control.
It kept me matte a long time...I think 6 or 7 hours which is close to 8 :) I haven't experience any other powder doing it and I didn't need to do any touch ups between. If you didn't know before I have oily skin.
I'm happy I decided to pick this beauty up and I can't ask for a better powder from the drugstore :) And the packaging has very good quality as well.
Have you tried any Bourjois powders before?
Thanks for reading! :)
This sounds brilliant, six hours oil-free is unheard of for me as well! I definitely need to give this a try, thanks for the review :)
