Packaging:

Like any other products, it comes in a box.

This is the side of the box:

Ingredients are listed really clearly as you can see above.

This is the other side of the box which has the caution written on it, plus, storage instructions:

Like most products, you have to keep it in a fresh and dry environment.

This is another side which has cute lil images:

The other side with some info:

This is how the bottom of the box looks like:

This product is made in Italy and it has a UVA of 3 stars. 

This is how the product looks like once you take it out of the box:

It actually looks like a replica of the box, only in bottle form.

This is how the bottom of the product looks like:

Pretty much the same information which you can obtain from the bottom of the box.

Cap is screw on type as you can see below:

After removing the cap, you can see there is a plastic seal to keep it clean and to ensure the powder doesn't dirty the cap.

Experience:

I gave this product to my mom. She reviewed this. :)

She became a shade fairer after putting this on. Not in a weird way, it looks really natural on her.

It brings out the brightness of her skin.

For coverage, it doesn't cover her pigmentation & redness. It doesn't cover anything actually which is why on the box, they did mention OPTIMAL, and not full. :)

As for oil, it kept her oil free all day. 

This is really good in the sense that other foundation will make her face oily after a few hours but this doesn't.
It really does what it claimed in the sense that the final result is matte and not cakey. That's TRUE!

Here's a lil before & after pic of using this product:

no editing was done apart from cropping and inserting the before and after words.

Note: the above experience was written based on a Q&A session I had with my mom regarding this product.


Conclusion:

My mom said that this product is not bad at all and that if it needed any improvement, it would just be on coverage.


Will I purchase?:

More to will my mom purchase? Yes, she would.
