Hello lovelies!
I can't stop gushing over this product that I discovered recently!
Let me introduce you to THE MOST ÜBER face powder that I have ever come across.
It comes in a regular compact powder casing - that has a luxe finish - decked out in an ombre dark gold tone with gold trimmings - and just oh-so-pretty!

Covermark is currently only available at Takashimaya's beauty hall- the counter is right next to the escalator and I happened to be served by the very delightful and friendly - Nur.
This powder comes in various tones.
I bought this in MN40!

Let me tell you ladies.
This powder is AH-MAZING!
First let me tell you what it contains.
It contains Covermark's signature Moisture Coating Formula that hydrates the skin (great for someone with dry skin like me!). Also, there is a Skin Melting Formulation that helps to blend flawlessly into the skin. There is also the Sandwich Complex Powder and Moist Change Powder that helps to absorb oil, and gives radiance to the skin. Along with an SPF32, this is the only powder which I am aware of using herbal extracts from 7 different herbs to moisturise the skin!
What it did for me:
- Covered ALL my pores - leaving me with a FLAWLESS finish (YAY!!!)
- Gave me a SUBTLE, RADIANT GLOW! (Double YAY!!!!)
- Stayed on the WHOLE DAY - I didn't need to keep on topping up powder - talk about long-lasting and this is JUST powder, mind you! (OMG-YAY!!)
- It has SPF32 - which means my face is protected from UV rays! (YaY!!!)
- This last one is going to blow your mind - the powder DOES NOT OXIDIZE! (Are-you-friggin-kidding-me-Double-YAY!!!!!!!)
Yes you heard me right.
It DOES NOT OXIDIZE!
Instead what happens is that this powder actually brightens up throughout the day! You will end up with a MORE GLOWY effect than what you started out with!
Crazy, right?!!
So just so you guys believe this. I have evidence!

| Bare faced. |
 |
| With Moisture Veil LX powder at 6.30am, just before I went to work! NO PORES and my red patches gone - powder had not settled into skin yet so it kinda looks pale at this point coz I had only JUST applied it! |
 |
| The powder settles nicely into my skin within 15 minutes after application (Skin Melting Formulation) - and this pic is taken at work after lunch 1pm. |
 |
| Back home at 8pm! |
There was absolutely NO need for me to keep patting any powder. I just stayed that way the whole day.
If you asked me, this is powder is worth investing in.
Especially good for on-the-go mummies like me, who have no time or just simply want something fast and lasts long - no hassle of having to bring my compact powder along ;) - a great plus especially for upcoming Hari Raya Puasa celebrations where most ladies would only have the fashionable slim or tiny clutches - haha - I know I will!
And did I mention that glow??
This is an honest-to-goodness rave review on this powder coz I simply LOVE IT.
If you are keen yet cautious, just go to the counter and check it out in person. See the effects with your own eyes and judge for yourselves :) - I promise you will be happy you did!
FYI, there are other compact powders or powder foundations that might be more suited to your particular skin type - so DO check the options there before you make a straight-out purchase.
Cheers
