Kompaktipuuterin

Kompaktipuuterin, often referred to as compact powder or pressed powder, is a cosmetic product primarily used to set foundation, reduce shine, and provide a matte finish to the skin. It typically comes in a pressed powder form, housed within a compact case that often includes a mirror and a sponge or puff applicator. This portability makes it a convenient item for touch-ups throughout the day.

The formulation of kompaktipuuterin varies but generally consists of fine powders like talc or mica, binders, and pigments. Some formulations also include ingredients aimed at skincare benefits, such as oil-absorbing agents or hydrating compounds. Its primary function is to absorb excess oil and sebum, preventing the skin from appearing greasy.

Kompaktipuuterin can be applied in several ways. It can be used to set liquid or cream foundations, locking them in place and extending their wear time. It can also be applied on its own to bare skin for a light coverage and a more unified complexion. Using a brush or a puff, the powder is lightly dusted over the face, focusing on areas prone to shine, such as the T-zone. Different shades are available to match various skin tones, and translucent versions are designed to set makeup without adding color.
