First grinding sunpact in the world
When I was picking up this sunscreen, I was not as much interested in the spf itself (these I've got in stock till next summer 😁) but more in structure and the packaging, because this is very new to me, it's balm to powder! And it is really a grinder - you have to turn the pack clockwise and the pretty cream comes out. It is satisfying to see it, and it becomes a lace structure, so cute! When making a video I overdid it and took out too much- so when I was applying it, it was too much for the face, so I used it on my hands and neck. The cream has a soft velvety finish, feels very nice on the skin, but I can't shake off the residue until I wash my hands with cleansing oil. This can tell you how good it sits, and it is waterproof for sure -I sported with it and was caught under rain - everything stayed put, there were droplets on top of my skin, like on a waterproof coat. Plus it does not move make up around, so it's all very good. The only downside for me is that it leaves a bit of a white cast, but one of my skincare fellow friends has recommended to put it on a bit by bit, that's what i am doing too. It is still white, but less, so it blends well and leaves a tiny bit of finish. It holds well for the whole day and reapplication is also nice. Also it evens out my skin tone and becomes somewhat a make up base- like a primer. It is very interesting to see, because it's very mat, smooth, and feels very soft. All in all - very interesting cream, i like how it sits on the skin, but I don't know if I can recommend it to the darker complexion.

Decent
It has some coverage which is nice, but it does translate quite heavy on the skin. It is not extreme cakey, but you have to be careful where you apply it. The powder is not detectable after some setting spray. I did get a shade too dark. So be careful to pick the right shade. It is not a holy grail but good for what it is

A little bit old fashioned but still good!
The @maxfactor Creme Puff face powder is a cult favorite for ages. That's a great recommendation for trying it out! What I like about this powder is that it is in compact form. For me, it's very handy. The powder is very lightweight and doesn’t make my face look cakey. I am applying it with a brush as I do not like powder puffs. It looks very soft on the skin and gives a nice satin opaque effect. It has a buildable light to medium coverage. Oh, and it works well with all of my foundations. The minus points: The powder is scented. It's has a pleasant powdery smell but you can feel it all day so if you are scent sensitive it may be a little bit annoying. The color. Even though I've got the 05 translucent shade it still has some pinky-beige tint of color which may look too dark on lighter skin tones. Overall I think that it's a good product. The formula may seem a little bit old-fashioned compared to all of the similar products available on the market at the moment, but still it works well and does what it has to do.

happy to have!
This time the color was just right! I am not a powder person but was really curious about this product and was not disappointed! it looks good when you are using it just on the base or cream, gives you very natural look, is practically invisible when you take just right amount on your brush. very happy about it @maxfactor

Top powder puff
I received it with my order, but I would definitely order it separately. The powder puff is nice and soft. It works great with loose powder, but it also works great with a compact powder. Furthermore, a handy handle on the powder puff. I love using it!

creme puff powder compact max factor
Really a great powder to powder off your makeup. It mattifies your skin nicely and you can see it right away. Also good to carry around or to mattify your shiny head from time to time or to make it look like you're wearing foundation again. It is also cheap. Really a great powder to powder off your makeup.

Nah
When I opened the powder, I immediately noticed the smell, it reminds me of the dead soap. Too much smell. Plus points: - Color is neutral and blends beautifully (No. 75 - Golden) - Stays in place for about 4 hours Downsides: - After 4 hours, my forehead starts to shine slightly again Not really worth buying due to the strong smell and minimal effect.

All time favorite
I've been using this max factor cream puff for years, is really my favorite powder. I have combination skin and it stays in place best with me. Easy to apply and I do a really long time with 1 pack. I always buy these on sale at kruidvat!

Prima powder
I think it's a nice color of powder/cream, which covers well and naturally. I have freckles and only use powder when I look a bit spotty. Now I suffer from redness on my chin in the winter, which I can do less with this powder without cake effect. 👍

Max Factor poeder
The @maxfactor Crème Puff Powder is a silky soft compact powder with light-reflecting pigments that make your skin look more even in a natural and well-groomed way. I tested the Medium Beige (41). It would provide a medium to full coverage. I normally use foundation. Then the powder is certainly not full coverage. For matting after foundation, the powder is fine. In several reviews I read about the strong smell, which I also experience. I'm not a fan of it, but it fades fairly quickly. I apply it with a brush and it does give it a soft powdery finish. I'm not one who pays attention to ingredients from products 😬 but talc clogs your skin and coincidence or not after a few uses, unfortunately I suffer more from spots. Conclusion, it gives a nice finish but because of the smell and talc in the product, I stick to my Mac powder.

Not recommended
It has a crazy scent (perfume) and it doesn't work very well either. I wouldn't recommend...

Pity vd smell. Otherwise fine.
Great powder for a bit of touch up. It is not super opaque, but if you first get rid of your unevenness/red spots etc. with Concealer, for example, then it works great for the finishing touch. It's not very present, but you'll see a powder finish. But the smell, pooh, it's really a perfume like scent, but not a perfume I would personally recommend. Pity. @maxfactor

Satisfied
I am generally satisfied. The product gives a nice color to the lips. It is a dry product, so it should definitely have a lip gloss over it. It is a real powder that you can easily apply to your lips through the pillow.

Natural coverage
Covers very nice and natural Good to blend out Apply only after foundation for an even effect

terrific
I really like this powder. It gives good coverage and finishes the look nicely matt.

Prima product
For me, this powder is slightly darker than expected, which is why I use it as a powder over foundation on the shade areas and I use a lighter powder at the highlight spots. It is also a pleasant powder, for a 'light coverage' you could also use it as a foundation. You can build up the powder in layers, but I don't like that myself because you get a typical powdered face. Random fact: there is a smell to this product that I personally like to smell really nice haha, a kind of floral scent among the makeup products.

Not shocking but good.
I always liked their Cat's Wink Clear Pact but went out of the range so try it in the hope it looks like it and he does that happy! The color does differ a little bit but not so that it no longer matches. This powder blurred the skin nicely and gives a beautiful but natural matte finish. Very suitable for my pale skin. I use it under my eyes in areas where I glide quickly like a nose and forehead. Compared to other powders, I think it doesn't really accentuate my drier spots.

Prima poedertje
I used this powder piece in my teens. Ha ha! I often seemed like a clown. It was too thick but I didn't want to see pale. And that always worked out great. I still use a hint of the stuff but light in moderation in a more suitable complexion. It covers fine and ensures a matte finish. I also really like the scent. This one is a success! Maybe forever.;)

Fine product
Fine foundation with medium coverage. It provides a matte effect and the scent is really fantastic. Never had a makeup product that smells so good. Good price/quality ratio

Not for dry skin type!!!
@maxfactorCrème puff presse powder used, but unfortunately this was not a success... Despite the fact that I always use a serum and day cream, this powder has managed to dry out my skin very much. After the application nothing wrong but during the day I got a pulling and itchy feeling more and more. (I thought well imagine it's just getting used to...) But after looking in the mirror saw flakes on my forehead and cheeks. It took 1 week to get my skin calm again. 😫 I tried the powder once and immediately discarded after that day. So not for dry skin!
