Maybelline New York Super Stay 24h Waterproof Powder - Review!!

Maybelline New York Super Stay 24h Waterproof Powder - Review!

Hi guys! :) So, I know I haven't got the chance to post many blog posts or videos recently. I am currently revising for my theory test - in the hope that I pass!!! :) 

Anyway, heres my review :) 

 So, as you can see the powder comes in the usual, expected, plastic packaging in which most powder products are in, with the simple maybelline new york text and a clear 'swatch' of the colour. Although I always find the actual colour of the powder varies so don't put your whole trust in this picture! 



In my opinion, I think that the picture on the products' packaging is quite similar to the product itself. I purchased the product in the colour 21 Nude. I think that the product itself is very matte and provides good coverage (take that from a person with bad skin!) Although the product has good coverage and claims to be waterproof, I think it works well with very oily skin (such as mine!) although my skin still feels oily the powder minimizes this so it does not appear as oily. I am going on holiday in May, and I am currently trialling a number of waterproof products which I am able to wear whilst I am away
although I don't wear too much
make-up when on holiday.

The product itself also comes with a high quality 
mirror, unlike some of those products with the 'plastic-like' mirror to them. I tend to use this mirror for places in which require more attention such as applying liquid eyeliner to my eyelids. The product also comes with a sponge applicator although it is not made out of the fabric that most powder applicators are made from, I think the main purpose of it is to protect the mirror from becoming dirty. 
I apply my powder with the powder brush which can be found in my previous blog posts, I purchased this powder from Superdrug (along with most of my other make-up products) for £6.99, You can purchase the product here:

PROS:
- Long lasting
- Great for oily skin
- Useful and attractive packaging
- Provides good coverage and colour - no need for bronzer!
- On sale in most drug stores and won't break the bank

CONS:
- May need to be reapplied depending on your activity
- Limited amount of shades

Overall, I would recommend this powder to anyone as it is suitable for any skin type and colour!

Thanks for reading guys:)
