I saw these beautiful white and pink compacts and couldn’t resist the urge to buy them. Available in six shades, I got these in two shades “Ivory fair” and “Rose fair”. Ivory fair as the name sounds is not at all ivory, it is more yellow toned. Rose fair does justice to it’s name and is really a lighter colour with a slight hint of pink.
The coverage is good and even, doesnot look chalky and last for 6 to 7 hours. It blends easily and feels light-weight on the skin. It’s SPF 20 and contains multi-minerals, plus it does claim to lighten the complexion. These compacts have a very strong floral fragrance which some people may not like. The fragrance does become mild after a few minutes. The mirror that comes in the lid is quite big and good quality. The powder puff that comes along with these compacts feels papery and synthetic, I prefer to use my own powder brush instead.
The swatches are in the order “Ivory fair” and “Rose fair”.
I have swatched “Rose fair” below, you can see that it looks chalky at first and then sinks into the skin looking natural and giving a good coverage.
