This post is also available in: Croatian Since I don’t wear liquid powder or BB creams on a daily basis I’m always on the lookout for a good pressed powder to use to set my concealer and even out my skin tone a little. As I have dry skin my needs when it comes to pressed powder are a bit different than for you who have combination or oily skin. While mattifying is your top priority I need a powder which is not too mattifying because such a powder would only turn my dry face into the Sahara Desert. Mattifying powders only further accentuate the dryness of my skin, they settle into fine lines and after a few hours of wear they give my skin a tired and drained look which doesn’t look very pretty at all. Even though Bourjois Healthy Balance Unifying Powder promises that your face won’t get shiny for ten hours after application, despite its mattifying promises, it managed to fulfill most of my demands when it comes to this type of product. Read on to hear all about it… The Bourjois Healthy Balance Unifying Powder comes in a compact containing 9 g of product. The compact is rather slim and very practical for carrying about in your purse for touch-ups during the day. The mirror is nice and big and you don’t have to strain to see yourself in it. My only complaint is that you don’t get a powder sponge since even though I apply my powder with a brush at home, a sponge is way more practical for touch-ups. But if you have a spare one lying around you can squeeze it in there, it works, I’ve tried :). This pressed face powder is enriched with Asian fruit extracts which help to achieve the appearance of an even skin tone. Extract of Sharon fruit has a hydrating and regenerating function while Yuzu fruit extract contains anti-oxidant, anti-septic and hydrating properties. The packaging also states that the powder is non-drying, hypoallergenic and non comedogenic. It has a soft fruity scent to it, same as the Healthy Mix Serum foundation. The powder is available in four shades: 52 Vanille – for fair skin 53 Beige Claire – for medium skin 55 Beige Foncé – for medium/olive skin 56 Hâlé Claire – for tanner skin As you can see the lightest shade is 52 Vanille which I have. Unfortunately most of the year this shade is too dark and too yellow for me and I can actually wear it only during summer and for about a month after summer vacation. That’s why I’m writing this review now because pretty soon I’ll have to put it away until next year. On the photo you can see it’s already become a bit too dark compared to my neck. All the available shades are for warm undertones and I wish Bourjois had made some shades for more neutral and cooler toned skin, but since it hasn’t, I can only use this powder for a short period. Which is really a shame since it’s so perfect for me in every other aspect. The powder is very finely milled and soft. It leaves a very natural finish on the face and it’s not in the least powdery or dryish (I really don’t know how to describe it in any other way :)). You really do get a nice freshness and glow. The coverage it gives is medium. It evens out my skin tone but my freckles still peep through and it doesn’t settle into fine lines. After a few hours it requires some minimal touching up on the nose and chin (since even I get a bit shiny there), but apart from that, its staying power is great. It didn’t cause any irritations or break outs. Below you can see the difference between my bare face on the left and my face with concealer and powder on the right. My conclusion: if you have dry skin and are in search of a good pressed powder (and have a warm undertone and are not extremely pale) Bourjois Healthy Balance Unifying Powder is a very good choice. For the rest of you with normal, combination or oily skin, even though this powder promises a 10 hour mattifying effect, I really don’t believe in that claim. If I needed minimal touch-ups after a few hours, you would need bigger touch-ups. My main complaint about this product is that the range of shades is pretty bad and significantly narrows down the circle of those that might find a matching shade among those available. Have you tried the Bourjois Healthy Balance Unifying Powder? How did you like it?

This post is also available in: English S obzirom da svakodnevno ne nosim tekući puder ni BB kreme uvijek sam u potrazi za dobrim puderom u kamenu kojim ću fiksirati korektor i malo ujednačiti ten. Kako imam suhu kožu, moje potrebe u pogledu pudera u kamenu su nešto različite od vas koji imate mješovitu i masnu kožu. Dok je vama matiranje na prvom mjestu, meni je potreban puder koji nije pretjerano matirajući jer bi takav moje suho lice pretvorio u Saharu. Puderi s mat efektom samo dodatno ističu suhoću mojeg lica, uvlače se u bore i pogotovo nakon par sati nošenja daju mojoj koži umoran izgled bez ikakvog sjaja što baš i ne izgleda pretjerano lijepo. Iako Bourjois Healthy Balance Unifying Powder obećava da vam se lice neće zasjajiti ni nakon 10 sati od nanošenja, usprkos svojim obećanjima u pogledu matiranja, on je uspio zadovoljiti većinu mojih zahtjeva za ovu vrstu proizvoda. Pročitajte moje dojmove u nastavku… Bourjois Healthy Balance Unifying Powder puder u kamenu dolazi u pakiranju od 9 g i to po cijeni od 68 kn. Ambalaža je dosta tanka, praktična za nošenje sa sobom u kozmetičkoj torbici za eventualne popravke u toku dana. Ogledalo je lijepo i veliko, ne morate ćoriti da bi se uspjeli vidjeti u njemu. Jedina moja zamjerka je što unutra nema predviđenog mjesta za spužvicu jer iako kod kuće puder nanosim kistom, za naknadne popravke van kuće spužvica je puno praktičnija. Doduše ako imate neku viška, može se ugurati unutra, stane ipak :). Ovaj puder u kamenu obogaćen je ekstraktima azijskog voća koji pomažu u postizanju ujednačenog izgleda tena. Ekstrakt japanske jabuke Kaki hidratizira, obnavlja i tonizira kožu, a ekstrakt citrusne voćke Yuzu sadrži antioksidativna, antiseptička i hidratantna svojstva. Na ambalaži je također navedeno da ovaj puder ne isušuje, da je hipoalergen i nekomedogen. Ima nježan, voćni miris, jednak onome koji krasi i Healthy Mix Serum tekući puder. Puder je dostupan u četiri nijanse: Vanille – za svjetlu put Beige Claire – za srednje svjetlu put Beige Foncé – za srednje svjetlu/maslinastu put Hâlé Claire – za tamniju put Kao što vidite najsvjetlija nijansa je 52 Vanille koju ja imam. Nažalost ova je nijansa meni većinom godine pretamna i prežuta, a odgovara mi samo tijekom ljeta kada uhvatim boje i kojih mjesec dana nakon ljetnog godišnjeg odmora. Upravo zato i pišem ovu recenziju sada jer ću ga uskoro morati pospremiti do sljedeće godine. Na fotki možete vidjeti da mi je već sada malo pretaman u odnosu na vrat. Sve raspoložive nijanse su izrazito tople i voljela bih da je Bourjois uzeo u obzir i neutralne i hladne podtonove, ali pošto nije, ovaj puder mogu koristiti samo jedno vrlo kratko razdoblje. Što je uistinu šteta jer mi po svemu drugome savršeno odgovara. Puder je fine, mekane teksture. Na licu ostavlja vrlo prirodan dojam, nimalo praškast i suhonjav (ne znam kako bih to drugačije objasnila :)) već naprotiv lice stvarno s njime dobiva neku svježinu i sjaj. Prekrivanje koje nudi je srednje. Fino mi ujednačava ten, ali mi se i dalje vide pjegice, a uz to mi se ne uvlači u bore i borice. Nakon par sati zahtjeva minimalne popravke na nosu i bradi (jer da, čak se i ja tu znam malo zasjajiti), ali osim toga trajnost mu je stvarno odlična. Meni nije izazvao nikakve iritacije na licu. Na fotki možete vidjeti razliku između lica bez ikakve šminke lijevo, i lica s nanesenim korektorom na podočnjake i puderom desno. Kao zaključak mogu reći da ako imate suhu kožu lica i u potrazi ste za dobrim puderom u kamenu (a uz to ste toplog podtona i niste svijetli kao duh) Bourjois Healthy Balance Unifying Powder je jako dobar izbor. Za vas ostale s normalnom, mješovitom i masnom kožom, iako ovaj puder obećava 10 sati matiranja, baš i ne vjerujem u tu tvrdnju jer ako su meni bili potrebni minimalni popravci nakon par sati, vama bi sigurno trebali još veći. Moja glavna zamjerka ovom proizvodu je slab izbor nijansi koji nažalost poprilično sužava krug onih kojima bi ovaj puder po boji mogao odgovarati. Jeste li isprobali Bourjois Healthy Balance Unifying Powder puder u kamenu? Kako vam se svidio?
