The product comes in a gray compact wherein the cover is accentuated by blue curvy area and blue CG initials. Like most compacts, a mirror is attached in the inside of the cover. This pressed powder also comes with a thin sponge applicator in which the top portion has gray leatherette cover with the initial CG etched on it.
I have been using the product for almost a month now, the duration which I think is enough to observe the performance of any product.
Product Description:
Helps keep skin looking fresh and natural hour after hour.
What I like about this product:
I like how my face looks natural once the product settles on my skin. Although I have naturally oily skin, this pressed powder keeps my skin shine-free for up to two to three hours. The coverage is okay, same with the smell - typical scent of pressed powders. It hasn’t caused me acne too.
Others are criticizing the sponge applicator but I actually find it nice. Aside from being soft, I particularly like the gray leatherette cover on top. LOL! One more reason why I like this pressed powder is its price. This costs only Php 114, almost the same if not cheaper than the pressed powders from local brands.

What I do not like about this product:
I do not like how this product makes my skin a bit dark right after application. Probably the shade translucent beige is not appropriate for my skin tone. But as what I have said, it looks pretty good once it has settled on my face.
I noticed that small bumps started appearing after a few swipes on the product. I do not know the reason why but I cannot remember having these bumps on my previous pressed powders. I think the packaging was designed to look classy but unfortunately for me, it looks cheap than classy. But it is indeed cheap! After almost a month inside my bag, the packaging is already full of scratches and the color has started to fade.
Will I repurchase?
Unfortunately, no! Aside from the fact that Covergirl doesn’t have beauty counters in any malls in our area, there are many other pressed powders I want to try. Additionally, this product has been discontinued and based on Covergirl’s website, Covergirl Clean Pressed Powder, Oil Control stands as replacement.
