| Ingredients and other details |
I love the black packaging - it instantly makes anything look chic. It's also very sleek so it's very convenient to use, especially for us office girls. It's not made of a sturdy kind of plastic though so handle it with care because it won't survive a fall.

| Very barefaced me VS Me, wearing a layer or two of the Avon True Color Oil Control Plus Pressed Powder in Oriental |
I have a light-medium skin tone with warm undertones and I think I made a good choice in picking the shade MP102 Oriental. I also have an oily skin so when I read in the label that it is specially designed for controlling oil, I was very eager to try it.
So, to break it down, here are my comments.
The powder is very fine and it feels soft and smooth to touch when applied. It is very lightweight and doesn't feel chalky. It has a muted powdery scent which is not bothersome.
It might look too yellow on the pan but it doesn't look like it at all when applied, as you can see on my before and after photos. Take time to study my bare face. LOL. This powder gives a light coverage. It won't go beyond that no matter how many times you layer it. I've tried going overboard but it also didn't get cakey, thankfully.
My dark circles were reduced a bit. A few dark spots were also partially covered. My skin tone was evened out. I think the best part of it was that my pores were minimized.
Since the coverage is only on the light level, I prefer using this as a setting powder to my foundation or bb cream.
By the fourth hour of wearing this, I can see the oil seeping on my nose and my chin. But I still looked good...so hey, this powder's not bad.
