Do you often press powder on your face. i notice some people do that in public toilet a lot specially in malls. specially here in my tropical country. people's face become so oily and sticky and they like to press powder on their faces to make it look fresh and always fresh. i don't like doing it but i admin once i tried to but i liked it. but i often forget to do that. but i think it should make it a habit since i have a very oily face and powder can absorb the oil on my face. but i am just worried if power can cause blackheads or whiteheads if they get deep into pores. but i am not sure about it.

Face powder is one of the basics in makeup. It is like one of the essential products and one of the must haves! If I don't have face powder, I feel like my make up is not complete. Face powder serves as a base for my make up. If you want a really natural look, you can simply put face powder of BB cream and some eyeliner and you are already good to go :) happy mylotting!

I have worn makeup since high school which was quite awhile ago. I don't leave home without my face being madeup. However, I do not use loose powder, just a liguid foundation that last most of the day. I have never had acne or any other facial problem. In fact, I get compliments all the time about my skin. I always tease and say that I sleep in my makeup, but I don't (not often anyway:-)) I have no special expensive products just soap, water, and plenty of sunblock underneath my foundation. It needs to be said that my entire family, grandmother, mother, aunts, etc. has great skin, so I just inherited.

I think press powder is one of the important item in every ladies' handbag especially in the hot asian countries. I noticed that when ladies go to public toilets you see a line of girls doing quick touch up on their faces so their faces won't look too shiny. I do use press powder when I go out so my face don't feel too naked with nothing on it. A little face powder does give spark to a dull complexion.

I only do whole face make up every once a while when I go to some fancy parties otherwise, eyebrow + eye line + lipstick pretty much good enough for me. Especially in the summer, I don't think I can stand the powder.. I would rather to be natural in the summer under all the hot days... powdered face will kill me...
