I love the texture of the loose powders-it looks very radiant on the skin and leaves a silky finish.

Don't you love that it has anti-bacterial properties? The powders can literally last for 20 years due to the rice base complex. Love that!!

wow are you serious? thanks for that piece of info i love it even more now! i was kind of scared about that sanitary part of it because i read on some makeupally review that 'rice powder harbours bacteria' but then even yesterday i was doubting reading and believing reviewers on that site because they are so subjective/bias with their opinions and dont have professional education about cosmetics :x
can i ask your opinion whats better to brighten up light-medium skintone.. parme, orchidee? i'm definatly not pale/fair although i would like to believe i am sometimes when i buy makeup!

I would go with orchidee.
Just picked up their lip gloss which is infused with Vitamin E and B-very high in content. Feels good so far! The tubes are smaller than other lip glosses-but I almost like that better since glosses tend to get yucky half way through or I get tired of the color. |

Hey Ludexbebe what shade of the loose powder would you recommend me? I'm Asian, not too pale but not tan, yellow undertone, and blotchy. Have redness from my acne (faint discoloration).
Thanks a bunch! :) |

your skintone sounds similar to mine, maybe translucide or banane, depends what you are looking for in terms of coverage. i got banane and its very nice but a little pale for me i was gonna pick up orchidee to brighten it up, i also use too faced bronzer most of the time i use my banane for a bit more color. when i went to eskinstore to pickup my order (i'm so lucky i live in vancouver here with the store) the sales girl recommended me translucide and i tested it and it was a nice match.. not as pale as the banane on me but the right tone with my skin. i'm actually deciding now if i should just get both orchidee and translucide to accompany my banane hehe.
