Maybelline Clear Smooth Two Way Cake Review

by - April 16, 2017

Greetings​ and Assalamualaikum to all.

Maybelline Clear Smooth Two Way Cake Review. I've got a new baby here. This is my first time in my life trying out the cake powder from Maybelline. To be honest, I am someone who's​ dare going out without wearing any makeup nor face powder. You might said, "Wow, you must be proud of your skin right?". Unfortunately​, it is not that I have super duper clear, healthy and beautiful skin. I honestly have a major crisis with 'makeup' and laziness is my absolute enemy. I am too lazy to clean out the mess I made on my face. Grin. 

Wait... Just recently, I bought this new baby, Maybelline Clear Smooth Two Way Cake with me. Since the 50% discount on Maybelline product at online store was very seductive, I end up buying this baby. So here we goes, my review about Maybelline cake powder.

MY THOUGHTS
The Packaging - As nice as pink color, it it kinda cute. Nicely pack. 

The Finishing 
Shine control - Yes. It really does the job like it said. My skin don't get oily during the day when applying this cake powder. (I have normal skin type). 
Instant fairness - Yes. It work instantly. Rather that dry application, I love wet application more. It is like a better coverage with wet application for me.
Visibly smooth complexion - Yes. And it is kinda lightweight too. Love that.
Cover dark spots - Not really. When there is too much melanin production, dark spot may appear in your specific area of the skin. My prediction, it may works for minor dark spot. I have quite visible acne scar on my cheek (kinda dark in color), and it still slightly visible after applying this face powder.

Long lasting - Yes. Try wet application, and it is awesome. Recommended for those who have a dry skin, try this wet application. 
Conceal blemishes and pores - Doesn't really works for major problem. 
Tone perfecting - Yes. Agree on this. It blend so well with my skin tone.

OVERALL
It is quite okay for my skin. I love the lightweight effect and the instant fairness. It blend well and easy to wash off (I just clean them using my normal foam cleanser). Tips for anyone who have quite visible acne scars like mine for example, you will need to apply concealer first, before applying this cake powder to hide the imperfections. Overall it is okay. Its an affordable price too.
My rate for this cake powder, 4/5.
