Urban Decay Razor Sharp
Claims:
“Designed for stars of film and flat
screens, our high-tech translucent powder keeps you camera ready! Skin appears
flawless with a stunning, soft-focus effect, even under bright and unforgiving
light.”
Pigmentation:
“The universal shade suits all skintones, so you're covered for summer
and right into winter when your tan has faded. The no-mess component, with
attached puff and handy on/off switch, is freeway- and subway-friendly so you
can take it anywhere beauty calls.” (They now offer a new powder with a range of shades)
Finish/Texture:
This powder has a fine, light, smooth, and silky texture. It never looks chalky
or over done.
Longevity:
This isn't going to leave you completely matte all day, you will have some
mid-day shine but it doesn’t look oily. You will have to touch up if you are
concerned about shine.
Packaging:
This product has a sponge application that gets in the way. You never know if
the product is coming out and it isn’t very hygienic so I just broke it off and
used my own sponge or brush to apply.
Price/Availability:
$31.00/Urban Decay
Likes:
I love that no matter how much I apply it doesn't look like a threw powder all
over my face or adds a heaviness to my makeup. It helps blur anything your
foundation or concealer might have missed.
Dislikes:
The packaging is a great idea in theory but in practice it’s not functional at
all. The product is great but the packaging just kills it.
Overall:
I love the product and haven’t had such success with a setting powder in
forever. For $31 the products lasts a very long time just remember you’re
buying the powder not the packaging. I do think I will be repurchasing it but
will want to try the “Naked Skin Ultra Definition Loose Finishing Powder" in the future.
*Disclaimer- All products have been purchased by
me.
