[Review] TONYMOLY Double Cover Pact SPF50+ #01 Skin Beige

Share it Please
If there is one thing that I run fast through after eyebrow pencils it has to be powder pacts. Powder pacts are great for quick touch ups, reducing shine and sebum and as a substitute when one feels too lazy to put on foundation.

Starting with the packaging its similar to the cushion foundation pact a lot. The dark blue looks great paired with gold details. Inside the pact is a fluffy puff. Personally I like to apply powder with a big fluffy brush to set my makeup or use a beauty blended when I want more coverage but I think this puff is good quality and works great. I love the fact that the compact feels sturdy and there is a nice  size mirror included

Features
A smart cover method that absorbs only the oil on the surface of the skin and turn the skin into radiant.
It covers uniformly and perfectly from dirt to pores with high covering power.
It does not get cakey and is applied without drying to provide a comfortable feeling

Ingredients:
Zinc oxide, Bis-chelated hexyloxyphenol methoxyphenyltriazine 'titanium dioxide, hexapeptide-1 t-effective ingredient] zinc oxide, ethylcyclohexyloxycinnamate, bis-ethylhexyloxyphenol ethoxyphenyltriazine ~ (google translate )


The powder feels soft on touch. I chose shade 01 #skin beige which is perfect for fair skin color.  The powder is finely milled and pressed in the compact. It may be soft but it does not kick up dust or crumble easily.

This powder is opaque and pigmented. I was really surprised how pigmented it came off on first swipe. On Day 1  I applied this on top of foundation and liked how it gave me extra coverage and made my skin look brighter.  I didn't control sebum on my face as much as the cosrx centella powder but my face looked matte for 3 hrs.

On Day 2 I wore this on its own as a powder and I was shocked how it covered up pores and blemishes on my face. I could still see some acne scars but  they looked less prominent. My skin looked fresh and natural and it didn't look like I was wearing much makeup. Infact after 3 hrs my skin looked brighter and no one could figure out if I had any powder on :)


My biggest gripe with many western base makeup products like foundation, powder and concealer is that they oxidize to an orange color after few hours and look weird but thankfully Asian makeup is formulated differently and they remain unchanged. TONYMOLY Double Cover Pact powder color remained the same till the end of the day and I didn't notice any oxidation. Nor could I detect any scent in it

Powders are notorious for clogging pores and causing breakouts. Though I couldn't see any hypoallergenic or non comedogenic claim on the box this didn't cause any breakouts or aggregate acne. On the Box Tony Moly advices to use this on top of foundation for extra coverage an setting make up but I think you can use this on its own for a minimal makeup look.

You might enjoy this if you like a powder which adds extra coverage to your foundation or if you are looking for an easy way to touch up your makeup during the day. TONYMOLY Double Cover Pact is available at Jolse website

Korean makeup products can also be purchased at Jolse amazon
