Hello everyone!
It's been freezing in NY lately, and we've had a few snow days at my college already. I hope everyone is staying warm in NY, it is so icy and slippery out there. Anyway, today I will be reviewing another make up product by Dearberry. This is a oil control powder, and the packaging is really cute! :) I think I saw it online for about $12-13.
I've talked a little bit about Dearberry in a past post (Dearberry lip balm), and I actually mentioned them in a post on my study abroad blog on Tumblr. It's actually a blog I co-wrote with my twin, but she did most of the posting/writing haha.

The packaging is pretty similar to most loose powder make up. It comes in a round container with a screw on lid, and once opened, the container has little holes where the powder comes out. It also comes with a puff applicator.
Dearberry Magic Oil Control Powder
Size: 9g
Loose powder that gives you a smooth, flawless and shine-free complexion!
So unfortunately, I couldn't find directions for the powder. But it is an oil control powder, so I assume that you just pat some of the product on after your base make up.
Swatches
As you can see, it is just a standard loose powder. Almost like a mineral powder. I'd compare it to a mineral veil. It appears pinkish-beige, but when you blend it, it is translucent.
How I use this Product
After applying all of my make up (concealer, foundation, sometimes a powder foundation) I pat this on in my oily areas. I mainly pat it onto my t-zone: nose, cheeks, and forehead.My Thoughts on the Product?
Love it. It is so convenient. It has lightweight packaging, and it is so easy to bring on the go if you get oily later in the day. All you have to do is pat it on with the included puff applicator. This stuff is great! I use it everyday and it ALWAYS keeps my oiliness at bay. When I apply this powder, I never seem to get oily, even if I am wearing makeup from 9am-11pm at night. I think I may have reapplied the powder once in the afternoon, but usually, this product lasts the entire day without re-application.
I suppose that after a while the puff gets dirty from use, and is really hard to clean. But in that case, you can easily switch over to a powder brush.
Who do I Recommend this Product to?
Anyone who gets oily during the day, or needs to touch up their base make up during the day because they start to get oily. This powder is great! It reminds me of a mineral veil. I only apply it to my t-zone usually, but it works well for setting make up too.

I know I was so upset when they closed the store in Myeongdong. They are still selling their products online though! I get mine from ebay and various stores online ;)
