Review: 4U2 dreamGirl Lovelight BB Powder SPF 15 PA++.

Hey yeah lovies!

Now, I’ll be reviewing 4U2 dreamGirl Lovelight BB Powder SPF 15 PA++.

I’ve been seeing this product at WATSONS. I’m just so afraid of trying it out because it looked like face powder for high school students. I’ve been hearing buzz about this powder in the blogosphere and H*ll yeah, it’s true! I’m so glad i finally got the courage of having this powder... still not my HG, though. But, i’m sure it’s going to be a keeper.

 

The Claims

“Confidence Builder through All Day Complexion Perfection. Exclusive formulation for even and natural skin tones and oil control. With sun protection, too. Be a dreamGirl!”

Okay, so it doesn’t promise much like fair, glowing, velvet, silky, dewy, satin, fresh, sheer, radiant, white, healthy, rosy, etc etc etc. But, it’s does state some big ass claims: Confidence and Perfection! This tiny winy powder got some big balls to claim those words.

Confidence-the main purpose of makeup is to boost self confidence.

Perfection- flawlessness.

Let’s see....

 The Experience

Gosh it looks like a toy, super girly, tiny, and pink. It has some drawings of cupcakes and candies and cake and ice cream. It’s trying to look sweet and cute.. it’s just too much.  Some gals like pink and tiny and cute. It doesn’t matter to me if it’s wrapped in paper or with diamonds as long as the product delivers. For Php194.00, honestly, i don’t expect much from this tiny baby.

The compact is made of lightweight plastic with small mirror. The sponge is not bad, like those used for dual foundations. The powder is finely milled, easily transferred from pact to sponge. I found using a brush gives sheer coverage and sponge application is for buildable coverage. Gosh this tiny baby is really good. HAHA. I got the no.2 and the shade is a tad darker than me, still it’s not that bad. It doesn’t have any weird smell, it doesnt have perfume in it.

I immediately love this BB powder! I’m so OK with the size. The small size is perfect in small pouch. The mirror is too small but it’s still ok, I don’t mind grabbing a bigger mirror.

Retouching was done every couple of hours. Reasonable oil control. And the thing that really surprised me is it never caked! Oh yeah... i get oily and stuff but i never looked patchy crinkle cookie! Haha! even if i had it in layers to cover my blemishes, the powder just melts on my skin. Whenever i check the mirror, i don’t get frustrated with my oiliness... felt like oily in a good way. Hahaha! Is there such thing? The powder never sinks to my acne scars and pores. Keber sa oiliness. HAHAHA

Obviously, i’m a happy user! The powder immediately promoted as my daily powder taking the place of my in2it pressed powder (review coming soon). I’ve been using this for a week and i didn’t get major pimple! Yay! Yay! Yay!

So the verdict:       Confidence:  YES

                               Perfection: no... just a small no hehe. It’s not a bad no. perfection to

                                                        me is just so... Unattainable.

Lasting power       4.5/5

Oil control           4/5

Ease of use          4/5

Value for money     5/5

The powder doesn’t have a refill. Practical reasons, it should have refills. But, I can say that you would not really need it. By the time you hit the pan, you might be needing a new compact (simply because its flimsy ^_^ ) and hey! Php 194.00 is really not bad.

I’ll update soon as i have development in using this powder (cracks, allergies, breakout, oxidation, weather shift, etc)

Will i repurchase? Hell YEAH! I’m getting the no.1 variant

I recommend this powder to those with troubled skin like me... to build up confidence, girls   saving up for facials, and girls with tight budget. Just give it a try guys and tell me your experience. *_*

I’ll be waiting <3.

Thanks for reading!

Love lots!
