Cheap Finds "Wet 'n' Wild" Pressed Powder


I bought this one from Everything P100.00 store. It was a real steal because they sold it as buy 1 take 1 free. By the way this is the old packaging of Wet 'n' Wild pressed powder. The new ones are in semi-matte silver finish. Anyway I still bought one, “who can resist this kind of steal?" I bought mine in translucent shade. This is a good alternative for anyone who are into baby powder stuff who does not have enough budget to get descent ones.


I was surprised that this cheap can be that good. It works very well on my oily T Zone and gives me a nice matte finish. Although it’s not that long wearing but who could complaint? This is definitely a cheap finds…

For this powder, I'm using my kabuki brush for application. The sponge provided in the compact is very hilarious! It looks like free sponge intended for the dish.

Check out your P99 store, Dollar Store, or if there's Everything P100 you might come across this kind of steal.

Cover Girl Smoothers Pressed Powder Review



If your skin feels "tight" or is prone to flaky patches and redness around the cheeks and nose, try this one... it has moisturizing formula. I'm using this powder on my dry days...

Pros: Moisturizing Formula ; Long-wearing
Cons: Expensive Retail Price in Leading Department Store; Availability

Cheap Finds Ponds Oil Control Pressed Powder Review


This powder retails at around P120+ something (peso). It’s a good find for a local brand. It’s a natural sheer pressed powder and my shade is in ivory white. Although in actual, this shade is dark in the pan but once you put it on, it comes out sheer and doesn’t alter the colour of your face. It really keeps the oil at bay.


Since I’m very oily, along with this powder I’m using the Ponds Perfect Matte Facial wash. The combination is great! It makes this powder more effective. For those with oily skin like me, it might be worth checking out.
