I have already reviewed the Cream Compact Foundation and Liquid Foundation from this range…so now moving onto the Loose Powder Foundation.
What the Company claims: This featherlight powder base gives a radiant, natural-looking finish and can be built up for extra coverage. It is non-comedogenic and suitable for sensitive skin
Buildable coverage
Radiant finish
Covers imperfections and fine lines
Dermatologically tested
Contains SPF 25
Directions: Tip the pot upside-down so a little powder is deposited in the lid. Work the powder into our Mineral Foundation Brush. Tap off the excess and apply to the face in circular motions. Reapply to build coverage.
Full Ingredients:
Mica (Opacifier), Titanium Dioxide (Sunscreen), Kaolin (Absorbent), Illite (Anticaking Agent). [+/- CI 77492 (Colour), CI 77491 (Colour), CI 77499 (Colour), CI 77891 (Colour)].
MRP: Rs. 1395/- for 5g
Shades Available: Eight
I have the same shade 208 Golden Vanilla as in Liquid and Cream Compact Foundation.
It comes in a normal jar packaging..but it has a sieve inside which is better for dispensing the product than the normal 4-5 holes in mineral foundation jars.
The loose powder foundation is very finely milled and very light in texture..this also makes it fly off more..every time you open it..so a lot goes waste.

It provides light coverage..you can use this with a concealer below..for days you do not want to cover much or want a light base. Keeps skin oil free for 4-5 hours…its suitable for sensitive skin too as it does not have any harmful ingredients..
Pros:
1. Very finely milled and has a soft silky texture.
2. I liked the sieve packaging…quiet convenient.
3. Good for days when you want a light base.
4. Travel friendly.
5. 5g is a huge quantity and would last long.
6. Has SPF 25.
7. Kaolin helps keep skin oil free.
8. Suitable for sensitive skin too.
9. 8 shades to match your tone.
Cons:
1. Lot of product flies off..causing wastage.
2. Expensive.
3. If you want heavy coverage or covering spots, etc..this would not help.
4. You need a kabuki brush to use this..a powder brush can also be used though..a kabuki is better for loose powder foundations..and you would need to purchase that separately.
Overall I found it decent enough..and good for people who need light coverage. I liked the Cream Compact Foundation the most from this range.
