Hi Girls,
Today we are going to review a compact powder.Its for those who have
sensitive skin.One of us which is me :) have extremely sensitive skin
with allergy problem.So I'm going to share my experience regarding this
product.Hope it will be helpful for you girls.
So here is my Review on
Alix Avien
Compact Powder.I was really impressed with the packaging of this
powder.It comes in a silver colored compact packaging with a lid on the
top.It's really classy and futuristic.
|
Comes in a silver box |
After opening the lid there is a picture of a girl engraved on the
powder.It looks really pretty that I almost thought not to use the
compact as it will destroy the picture.
|
Isn't it pretty? |
It comes with a sponge applicator but there is no separate
compartment to store the sponge.But its not a big deal for me cause I
don't use sponge applicator.I prefer to use a Kabuki or powder brush to
apply my compact powder.
|
This it the Compact with sponge |
My shade is 111 and the shade number and ingredients list is written on the back.I was surprised to see that there is no paraben in it.As I have already said before that I have extremely sensitive skin with high allergy problem.My skin type is combination with a oily T-zone.The product is clinically and allergically tested.I was really satisfied after knowing these facts.

Ingredients List |
To be honest, having a extremely sensitive skin I usually don't experiment a lot with my facial products.I usually use Clinique face powder for heavy make up and for regular use I use Keya seth Umbrella powder(seriously).I
was looking for a compact which shall give me sheer coverage and
glow but not melt after going out in the sun and also will not cause me rashes.Finally I came across this product and I was told good things about this product which influenced me a lot to use this.This product has its pros and cons and so I have a mixed review about this product.
Pros:
-Gives a matte finish for almost up to 4 hours on my combination skin.
-It gives a sheer coverage.
-Sets the foundation well.
-Paraben free.
-Didn't cause me any rashes.
-Controls oil.
-Attractive packaging.
-Doesn't get cakey.
-No artificial smell.
-Good range of available shades.
Cons:
-No SPF.
-The sponge applicator is not good.
-Not a good choice for Dry skin.
-Not a good choice for who want a full coverage.
-Most of the available shades are Pink-ish.
Overall I will say its a nice compact for those who have sensitive skin like me.Earlier we couldn't find any good product for our skin type in our country.But now I think our problem is almost solved :).Its a affordable product with a high quality.I will Highly suggest you girls to give this product a try.
