Maybelline Fit Me Compact Powder [12HR Oil Control] (118 Light Beige)

This Maybelline product line appears to be exclusive to Southeast Asia. It's available in only three shades and 118 is the lightest one. I was searching for powder foundation with a yellow overtone since I came to realize my previous powder had a peachy overtone that made me look pink.

I highly regret getting this because the powder reeks of that synthetic car smell. The packaging is also ugly. It looks and feels like a toy. The powder itself is coarse and has too low of a coverage for my liking. It wasn't worth the money.

Nowadays I don't really use this for base makeup. More like I don't take base makeup as seriously as I did early on anymore. At most I'll pat a bit on my cheeks to conceal some redness to make an evenly colored surface for my blush but most days I go out without any base. I also think the shade I got is too light for me. At most I use it to mattify some parts of my face so I don't look super greasy, but it honestly barely has any effect.
