My Thoughts:
The Product comes in a small tube which is travel friendly, the cream has nice watery texture, not very runny but when applied doesn't feels heavy on your skin, it absorbs into your skin fast and conceals all the pigments.
It is said to be all skin type and I have combination skin, but it gives a shine on my face, I don't prefer using it in summers it suits me better in winters, apart from shine factor the texture is very good when used in winter and autumn, gives you beautiful glow on your face and coverage is also nice. You get a nice range of shades to chose from.
It gives best result when used with face powder because without the face powder the nice finish becomes a bit shiny and the t-zones become all oily within 2-3 hours. I am using Medium shade. it is best recommended to use in winters and if you have dry skin.

My Thoughts:
The Product comes in a nice kit of powder at one side of its base and the applicator on the other, plus it has a mirror on the inner side of the hood as well.
The matte face powder is just what you need for your daily use, Maybelline has wide range of face powders all of them might not be available in stores at lahore. I have used Fit Me Pressed Powder and Clear Smooth All in One Sine Free Cake Powder and I feel Maybelline New York Clear Smooth All in One Sine Free Cake Powder is better as Fit Me blends into your skin and I didn't felt as if I have applied anything on my face at all.
The one I use removes the shine on your face and gives complete coverage hides the dark spots. It makes my skin look smooth and clear and I love the finish that lasts for 3-4 hours. It can be used all skin types, for oily to normal people can use it direct without any cream foundation and people with dry skin can use it with Maybelline BB Cream for better results.
