5 Days of Drugstore: Loreal Face Powder

     Loreal TrueMatch Super Blendable Powder is great for dry/normal skin. It is very smooth and the closest you can find to a high end powder. The texture is very soft and creamy. When you first try it on, you think it is a perfect product but in reality it has many flaws if you have oily skin like me.
     This powder comes in so many shades which is incredible! The problem is, it doesn't stay that color.... If you get oily the powder oxidizes and turns a different color. This happens very easily because the powder doesn't keep you matte. I think that the claims of the powder are very interesting. It says that "you can blot oil"... not stop it. This powder should be advertised as a finishing powder along with the other claims. It gives a beautiful satin finish to your face and surely feels more expensive than it is. 

     If you have oily skin, you need to use another powder too...but most of us don't like the  "cake face" look. If you have dry skin, you may not need another powder and love this one. My personal opinion is that this powder should get 3/5 stars. For me it didn't work and it should be more specific in the claims. If it were advertised as a finishing powder my rating would be higher. But as a setting powder it doesn't fulfill it's claims.

     I hope your day is cheery and not dreary!!! If not, I am sending smiles your way:)
