Clinique Perfectly Real Compact Makeup Reviews

Just okay in my opinion.
--Coverage: Medium. Will not cover acne scars, but for unblemished skin, will give good coverage. --Length of wear: Not very long on oily skin. Maybe a couple of hours? --Packaging: Prefer to use brushes instead of sponges. Otherwise, good cute sturdy packaging! --Color: It's alright on me. --Value: A so-so value. --Skin issues: Did not cause my oily acne-prone skin to have any issues. Overall, I'm not in love with this powder, although I like it a lot. Will probably buy a drugstore powder instead, or stick with my liquid foundations. — 4 years, 1 month agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Great for busy women
This is great! It evens skin tone and perfects, it very natural looking, makes my face look and feel soft and smooth and it applies quickly and easily. It combines the foundation and powder step. It is very easy to blend and comes in a lot of good colors. It does not irritate. The packaging is outstanding and durable. I like that the sponge has a storage compartment under the powder rather than on top of the powder. I have used the compact down to almost nothing without the powder breaking and crumbling all over. Decent price. I love it! — 4 years, 2 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 1 people said helpful

happy with my switch
I switched from liquid foundation to powder foundation because the liquid foundation takes way too long to do in the mornings and always felt too heavy. This powder gives the medium amount of coverage I was looking for as well as a matte finish of pure perfection. It definitely blends well and looks like you, but better! I am very happy with this product and am motivated to spend the extra minute applying it every morning. The only minor downside is that I have combination skin and I need to reapply near the end of the day to my more oily zones. It reapplies well and looks just as good as it did when I first applied in the morning. — 2 years, 9 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 1 people said helpful

Nothing 'special'
I'm 19 years old with combination/oily skin. I originally purchased this compact because I wanted even coverage but something to prevent excess shine. Well, it didn't work for my skin type. I'm not a huge fan of pressed powders and this didn't fix my problem. — 10 months, 3 weeks agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

My ultimate Fav!!
I've tried so many other powder foundations and I always come back to this one!! I have used it for years now. I use it daily and I love the natural finished look. Lasts all day for me..it's the best and not too expensive. — 10 months, 4 weeks agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Love It
Love the ease & speed of applying this makeup. Love the coverage. After reading other reviews I want to purchase the liquid makeup as well to layer for photos & events. My skin looks great with this makeup. I dust a light shimmery powder on top to set. I have oily skin & this stays pretty well. By afternoon the chin area can look a little shiny, but blotting sheets & a little more powder does the trick. Also, I break out monthly & with stress. Makeup never helps but this one doesn't seem to make it any worse like others, especially liquid. — 2 years, 3 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

too hard, does not belnd well on skin, looks patchy and becomes more orange
I am not sure why all the positive results. Maybe this makeup is just not good for me (skin on the oily side and I use a lot of sunscreen). This makeup was hard to apply: it was hard like a stone and became harder with time. Moreover, it was really difficult to blend it, it did not sink into my skin well. Also, it would adhere strangely to my skin, some places would be to thick and too orange, while other places it would not stick to (again, maybe it is cause of sunscreen?) I love Clinique but I will never buy this product again. — 2 years, 9 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Clinique Perfectly Real Compact Makeup - Very nice
I have used this for years and it's wonderful. I typically use this as a base for the rest of my makeup unless I'm using a liquid foundation first and it's perfect to lighten and brighten your face. I have shade "116 (G)" and it matches my skin tone perfectly. This is pretty finely ground and doesn't clog my pores at all. You also get a ton of product for your money, so this will last you a while. My only complaints would be that 1) if you have oily skin or you sweat a lot, this will not want to stay on your face very well and 2) this smells kinda bad in the package, but once it's on your face, you can't smell it anyway. — 2 years, 11 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

10 stars
i would recommend this to anyone who needs light to medium coverage, if you just need to soften your face or cover up redness...this works great, it makes my face look really soft and nice..and i cant feel it on my skin, it doesnt feel like it's clogging my pores .and if you need heavier coverage i would use this along with the Clinique perfectly real LIQUID foundation. — 2 years, 11 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful
