BTLA Compact Powder Oil Control Review



I haven't talked about Face Powder for quite some time right?  Because I assumed everyone found their favorites as of the moment and maybe aren't interested anymore?  

Please...comment and share your thoughts.

Though in reality, I may have my top 3 favorites but I'm still testing out various brands whether high end or drugstore just because I'm a makeup geek like that!  I like to explore and share my experience in the process..yeah..that's me!  Still getting giddy and excited over makeup!

Today, I am featuring a drugstore brand called BTLA.  BTLA gave a loud bang when they dropped a box-ful of BTLA products.  I was overwhelmed, but after recovering, I had a game plan.  

I started out using products that I really use on day-to-day basis.  To prove that, I reviewed the BTLA Matte Blush Duo!

And I picked a Compact Powder Oil Control after using a whole lot of skincare and my skin went back to Normal!  Meaning, I am actually okay to use Oil Control products and my skin does not look like a Sahara Dessert!

This is housed in a very simple sleek black round compact that comes with a sponge and a mirror.

The shade I got is called SAND which actually works for me as the pigmentation is quire light!  This serves more of a finishing powder than a cover-up powder.  Please do not expect heavy coverage as this is said to be an Oil Control Powder that help sets your makeup + oil control!

I personally think they can do better with the sponge but the mirror is quite nice.  As for the powder, the texture is not extremely smooth but I'm not complaining.  If a powder is hailed as "oil control" I am expecting the powder to be a bit "grainy" in texture (not rough but has a bit of texture to it) as this is the pigment that helps control oil!  It doe have that slightly 80% smooth texture but you know there's some friction during application which isn't bad!  

WHY? 

Because the product does even out your skin tone, controls oil and helps set makeup!  It does the job for the price you pay and more!  More because it did not irritate my skin and the shade isn't bad considering it's not my exact shade!

Overall, this is a great finishing powder, you can apply using a sponge or a big powder blush for a more natural finish!
