PRODUCT SPOTLIGHT: KRYOLAN TRANSLUCENT LOOSE POWDER IN TL4

Here's my initial review on KRYOLAN TRANSLUCENT LOOSE POWDER IN TL4.

THE VERDICT:

This big jar costed me 1150php. It comes in 5 translucent shades. What do you mean when you say a powder is translucent? It's a powder that literally goes on as nothing when applied. It just sets the foundation. It's more convenient because translucent powders can be used for any shade of foundation. It doesn't matter if your powders are white, brown or yellow. Translucent powders don't affect the color of your foundation at all (of course, you have to blend the powder correctly) TL4 is a yellow toned powder that helps make colors more vibrant. It's important for all the contours and the colors to show on stage to add dimensions and of course, life to your face through colors.

SWATCH OF THE TL4

It just pays off as a sheer powder! Did I mention that the staying power of this powder is fantastic? It keeps my make- up from running during shows! :)

It comes in a plastic jar, which can break easily if you keep on dropping it or putting it carelessly anywhere and in your bag. The powder has a cornstarch- like texture, which is good for me because it dusts off easily and is not as pigmented unlike talc- based powders. So I think the cornstarch- like texture is the secret behind translucent powders, that's why it goes off as sheer. When applied on foundation, blend this powder well and you'll see that your foundation is set, mattified, and without a single trace of change in the shade at all.  It also comes in a smaller jar (which is unavailable yet in the P.I.). A little goes a long way when it comes to Kryolan products so I'm expecting this big jar to last me a long long time.
