Review: Origins Bright by Nature SPF 30 Skin correcting makeup powder

Origins brighter by nature powder foundation has spf 30.

The active ingredients are octinoxate 7.50%; titanium dioxide 3.00% and Octocrylene 1:00%, which means it has UVA&UVB protection.



My thoughts on Origins Brighter by nature Spf 30:

1. It has quite high spf protection for a powder foundation.

2. COVERAGE: It has medium to full coverage. It can conceal my dark
circles, minor imperfections & menstrual acne.

3. TEXTURE: To me it's quite powdery. It has no buttery texture like some other high end products (though it's quite expensive here in Canada-$37 CAD plus tax).

The texture feels like Japanese drug store powder foundations--if you've tried any Japanese products you know what I mean. BTW, this product is
made in Japan.

4. FINISH: Matte finish. I think those who have oily to combination skin could have more beautiful finish with it.

5. SHADE: I have both very light warm and light warm. Light warm is
slightly darker than my Asian olive NC 20 skin, but I use it very often as
(natural/everyday)concour.

IN CONCLUSION:This is an ok product to me.

I like it's coverage. However because of it's dry&powdery texure, it makes
me feeling dry.

I like it has spf.As a everyday powder foundation to protect you from uv
damage, this is a good product. But if you are looking for beautiful finish for a special occasion, it might not be the best choice for normal to dry skin.

I recommend it to those to are looking for full coverage with high spf powder foundation. For those who have oily to combination skin & tend
to use powder as foundation, this could be your best choice.

ABOUT ME: I love powder foundations.I usually use powder foundation
because it's quick n easy to apply.


Before applying powder foundation, I moisturize my skin and put sun screen. I do not use liquid or cream
foundation.
My Skin Type : Normal to dry in the winter; Normal to combination in
the summer.










(Picture above: It is how it looks like inside of the compact. It comes with a big mirror & sponge)
(Picture below: However I do not use the sponge included to apply my powder foundation, I prefer to use The Body Shop kabuki brushes. It's easy to build coverage with them without looking cakey.)
