Cover Girl Smoothers Pressed Powder Review

I have used this CG powder for years, but it seemed that it was also the same reason that I have been an avid acne spot sufferer for these past so many years as well. The applicators sponge is the harborer of all that is unfriendly skin irritating bacteria. The longer it stays in that compact after you've "touched up" the more the bacteria grows to irritate your skin.

Although, I have remained loyal to CG, I have decided to ditch the compacts for the sake of my skin's sanity. I've used this compact since high school, so I still don't have the heart to throw them out of my make-up case. Even if It seems that just looking at them can cause me to break out in the most unsighlty places due to my sensitive acne prone skin.

Instead, I have those rice papers for blotting - which can be disposed of and oh so discreet.
