I've read a lot of bad reviews and commentary about this setting powder, and I honestly think it doesn't deserve the negativity. I want to share my personal opinion with you. The packaging has a futuristic style that reminds me of a UFO saucer—it has a beautifully streamlined shape. The outer box for this powder is also very attractive; it is shiny and features a bold red color. Inside, the powder itself looks like a planet from space.
I have an extremely light skin tone, and many products, such as foundations and powders, simply don't match it.
However, the PUPA Luminys Baked Powder fits my skin perfectly. I am using shade number 01 - Ivory Beige. The texture of the powder is incredibly soft and light; you will barely feel it on your skin. It has great staying power and will keep your skin beautifully matte for the whole day. Plus, it is almost completely unscented.
Pros:
- Beautiful design
- Unscented
- Pleasant, soft texture
Cons:
- Poor quality sponge applicator
Everything has its weak point, and PUPA Luminys Baked Powder has one distinct con: the included sponge applicator is very bad. I wouldn't recommend using it at all. It is much better to apply this product with a dedicated powder brush. Aside from that, this was my first product from PUPA, and now I definitely want to try more from the brand!
