I had Ms. Blacklace leave a comment on my post about L’oreal True Match liquid Foundation about T.LeClerc loose powder. It reminded me that I had not yet reviewed the T. leClerc loose powder I own in the shade Banane.

Banane is a yellow based powder. It looks very yellow in real life, which makes you think that it will just make you look bright yellow all over if you use it on your face. Wrong. What it does is counteract redness. So, dusting a layer of Banane over your face will help reduce any redness and even out your color.

Review: Makeup: Canmake Micro Loose Powder

1 Comment

I saw these cute little tubs of loose powder at the Canmake counter in Sasa and I just had to try it. For the uninitiated, Canmake is a range of cheap makeup from Japan that is super cute and in some cases, have pretty decent quality.

The Micro Loose powder comes in a little plastic tub with a cute puff and there are 4 colors:

  • 001 – Baby Beige – Semi matte texture with beige/translucent colour
  • 002 – Fairly Pearl – beige with shimmer
  • 003 – Venus Shiny – Light gold with shimmer
  • 004 – Terracotta Bronze – bronze with shimmer

Other than 001, the other 3 colours have shimmer in them which is quite overpowering if you are planning to use it on your face. I dabbed the powder on the back of my hand, and even then, found it way too shimmery for use on the face. However, if you have a party to go to and want some cheap shimmer powder that you can use all over your face and body, this might be a good option without breaking your bank. It retails for RM36.90 or thereabouts.
