"Ever Bilena Powder Foundation is a breakthrough formulation that is skin responsive.

Ever Bilena Powder Foundation keeps skin looking great and protected from sun damage all the time."

Hello everyone! Today I'm going to review Ever Bilena Powder Foundation :)  First I really like its yummy scent. It also has Vitamin E and UV protection. I got this in Soft Beige Shade. It is available in 4 shades. It provides medium coverage and my skin did not react badly with this product. It is also refillable (costs Php145 for the refill). The compact is black and sturdy and there is a different compartment beneath for the sponge like those of MAC's. The color stays true and I only needed one touch up during the day!

Pros:
  • affrodable
  • has Vitamin E and UV Protection
  • refillable
  • no breakouts
  • color stays true from the pan to the face
  • available nationwide (Watson's, SM dept.stores and your local dealers!)
Cons:
none!!!

I will definitely repurchase again and again! :)

Overall a very nice product!

D44933/7.


I bought this in Nude Beige shade. I had this one in Honey shade before and I must say this really kept my face shine free for a couple of hours which is good for my oily skin. This is also refillable. You can buy the refill for Php149 only.



Pros:
  • Oil-free
  • has SPF 25
  • Non- Comedogenic ( won't clog pores)
  • Absorbs/controls oil
  • available in 4 shades
  • has Vitamin C and E
  • developed for Asian skin
  • smooth skin texture after application
  • covers redness of pimples/blemishes
  • it's sweat-proof
  • didn't break me out
  • the scent is not heavy
  • affordable 
  • comes in a light pink compact :D
  • refillable (refill with puff)
Cons:
  • the powder breaks easily so be careful not to drop it
  • it's cakey when i put too much
Overall I'm satisfied with this powder foundation. If only the powder doesn't break easily, this could have been a 5-star rating. I will repurchase this again. :)

Rating: 4.5/5 stars

Edit: I pressed it a little hard and the powder cracked :( I will take 1 star off because the product is so fragile.
