Lakmé Perfect radiance Intense Whitening Compact – Medium

Posted by

Hi Girls !
In the hot Indian weather the one thing you can’t do without is a compact to blot that excess oil and make you look fresh through out .So last time when I went to get my makeup staple at the Lakme counter (because it gives me the perfect match ) the SA gave me this one though I was sceptic about it as it said “whitening” and who wants to look all ghostly an white-y ?
But he convinced me that is is actually pressed powder only , no white effect will show …I got it in the shade Golden Medium 03 which is the closest to my skin tone .It is available in 6 shades with Ivory Fair being the lightest one and the Rose Honey being the darkest . The six shades have both warm and cool tones so there is one for every complexion .
                   
PriceRs 200 /-  for 8 gms . I found it reasonable as this would  easily last about 3 months even with daily use .
                
                      
PROS of  Lakmé Perfect radiance Intense Whitening Compact – Medium

  5. Helps in giving oil free look

  7. Fine non gritty texture

                                 
CONS of Lakmé Perfect radiance Intense Whitening Compact – Medium 
  1. I do not like the packaging ,It could have been more compact and sturdy .
  2. The worst part is- it actually makes you look “white “ like a ghost .I have to be really careful while applying this as even a little extra can make you look ghostly .
  3. Blending takes some time because the puff is not good enough for this .A fluffy  brush would be better for blending it .
  4. Not much coverage provided for scars and marks .

     
It actually looks like my skin tone in the pack and mind you this is the darkest shade with yellow undertones 
                             
Applied on the wrist 
                             
After blending

        FINAL VERDICT – Not very happy with the whitening effect that it produces I will rate it         a 3/5 otherwise it is a good product if applied lightly , it gives sun protection , fairness and           oil free look to the face .                        

    Have you tried any product from the Perfect Radiance range of Lakme  ?
