J.Cat Beauty Luxe Pro Powder - Banana Review + Swatches On Medium Skin




It’s a friendly budget setting power. It has yellow undertone color (duh! Its banana). I like to apply this after concealer. Baking for 1 minutes and lightly swipe the excess powder. Sometimes no baking at all for more natural look.

The Packaging. It came in small plastic sifted container of 1.5oz / 42gm. You will need to use a bigger lid or surface. I tried used the powder lid, it’s too small. I recommend NOT taking all off the sifted sticker. It seems small but you will only need a little of it which mean it can last for months.


The setting powder is really fine milled and really soft. You’ll notice breathing it if you applying too much. For applying J.Cat banana powder, I strongly recommend using damp beauty or wedges sponge. I ever used elf small tapered brush, woooff.. it goes everywhere. I mean everywhere on the table, nostril, etc. Remember, a small goes a long the way.




The result. My under eye, nose, forehead, jawline, they become matte. No typical “white mask” on my face. You want to make sure that you’re not become super yellowish either.

I may say J.Cat Luxe Pro Banana powder is really suitable for asian skin tone. If you have olive / golden skin tone, this setting powder is really for you.

MAYBELLINE FIT ME FOUNDATION 230 NATURAL BUFF vs 228 SOFT TAN REVIEW + SWATCHES ON MEDIUM SKIN





Yeah..it’s that hype drugstore foundation. The color range, price and formula. 

I know this foundation is so last year. I’m not make any review about it because it’s been everywhere. But when i almost running out my 228 soft tan (matte+poreless), turns out this number is not available a lot in local drugstore. Hence why I purchased it online before. For the new one, I grab 230 Natural Buff (matte+poreless). 

The Foundation. It’s very liquid and lightweight on my face without clogging my pore. This foundation not causing me any zits or pimple. If I’m having situation on my face like dry flaking skin around my nose and upper lips. I will avoid applying in this area. 

Coverage. As you can see, it didn’t cover my acne scar in my forehead. I will need color corrector and thick concealer for that. 

The end of the day. At the end of the day, my oily nose and forehead are still peeking through. I did set it with loose powder. 

In my skin, 228 Soft Tan have that yellow tone while 230 Natural Buff is more light with pinkish tone. With powder, blush, bronzer and setting spray, both foundation will melted to my skin and it'll look fine on my face, natural buff is for when I’ve lightskin and soft tan is for me when I’ve a little tanned. 

Maybelline Fit Me Foundation 230 Natural Buff vs 228 Soft Tan color compare, face swatches and blend in my asian medium skintone.
