Maybelline White Superfresh 12HR Whitening Perfecting Compact – Shell : Swatches & Review

Hi girls. I was kind of busy today, so could not post. Also I was thinking about doing some fun post but nothing materialised. So I postponed it.

I was postponing a review from quite a time, so am going ahead with the review now. Maybelline White Superfresh Compact, I got 2-3 months back. Lakmé Perfect Radiance Intense Whitening Compact  is a permanent resident in my vanity, I still got the Maybelline one, to try it out and am really excited to share the review because, it’s wonderful.

My Experience

Foundations are not an everyday thing until your job demands it. a compact is an easy way to get some coverage, even tone without any heavy feeling. But not every compact can give a natural finish. I hate the cakey looks that most of the compacts give. But Maybelline Super Fresh Compact is different. It does not give cakey look at all.

The shade, Shell is a perfect match for my skin tone, maybe that’s why it just gets invisible on my skin while giving a smooth and natural finish.

The texture is super fine, so it goes on skin very smoothely. even though I have oily skin, I need to moisturise my skin well when I put this on. Otherwise sometimes, I see some dry patches on my skin.

It controls oil for 2-3 hours, which is not very impressive, I need to touch up for freshness.

It does brighten my face, which is a plus point of this compact. The brightening effect is not whitening, but very natural radiance. It just feels like my own skin is much more clear and vibrant. While I never had such an experience with Lakme Perfect Radiance or Maybelline Clearglow All In One Fairness Compact.

It evens out skin tone but there but it does not provide much coverage. It cannot totally replace foundation since I have acne scars on my face.
