Bench Paint Box BB Compact Powder

A local brand, Bench,  is known for their shirts and pieces of denim also created a nice collection of cosmetics. The Bench Paintbox line wasn't new for me since I always saw them on Bench Stores but not all branches carry all their products.

Product Description:

BB Face Powder is a multi-benefit offering from Paintbox. It is a blemish balm powder with a sheer texture that whitens, smoothens and gives skin all-day moisture and sun protection.

The other day I check out what's new in the store and saw this nice black case compact powder called BB Compact Powder. It comes in 2 shades: Fair and Natural. I did pick up Fair instead since it matches my skin tone better than Natural which looks lighter on my arm when I swatched them.

Price: Php 168 each

It comes with a powder puff and mirror inside the compact. The compact packaging doesn't look like it costs Php 168 right? I thought it's around Php 250-350 at first glance.

Thoughts:

• Well-milled powder
• Fine for flash photographs, no bounce when I used my phone camera
• It provides a sheer coverage, but still even out redness on my skin like my undereye and some pimple spots
• Makes my skin look and feel smooth
• Contains Vitamin E
• Sun protection
• No Scent
• Considering the price tag, I like the powder.
• Packaging's print was already erased in less than a month :(

Got a bad lighting for this photo, check out my prior photo, it's the real shade for Fair ;)

It provides instant freshness as it helps the shine control. I can have it listed under the affordable compact powders available here in the Philippines. It already comes with a mirror, no need to bring one for my kit. This could be perfect for setting makeup and if you need light coverage as well.
