Well there are times when you get certain cosmetics as gifts and then you spend a great amount of energy in finding a perfect use to it. Though it happens rarely with me,but when it does.....this is what happens!!!
I got this Savvy Pressed Powder in dark as a gift from Australia,the shade being way to dark than my skin....read on to know how I made it work for me:

Product Description:
Savvy by DB is an Australian brand and is available at Priceline. Though the packaging says its made in China. Visit the link to know more. 

Packaging:
It comes in a deep plum,round,plastic case. The see-through sttached lid has the brand name. The pan is sturdy enough and the lid click locks. Is comes without a mirror/brush. 

Shade,Ingredients and Weight:
This is the issue...since it was a gift,the exact matching shade wasn't even expected. But this was at-least 2-3shades darker than my skin tone. Applying it all over my face makes me look sun burnt :(

How I Made it Work for Me:
The shade being darker like I just said made me look sun-burnt instead of sun-kissed ;)
But the formula and staying power tempted me to use it. So I thought it would be best if I used it as a bronzer instead of powder. This being matte does full justice as a bronzer and is perfect for the day time when you want to look a bit chiseled without being OTT. I wore this in my No-Makeup Look Post,and this is how it looked on me!
Sorry for not posting a new pic..I somehow didn't feel like doing FOTDs..will compensate this with something else in the upcoming posts :)

Till then:

My Take:
To start off, I'm not a big fan of compacts/pressed powders because they are actually not a pleasure to my dry skin. But given to the humid weather I do need to touch up the t-zone. Its available in 4shades and I have the one in Soft Bisque. Avon Smooth and White Pressed Powder comes in a a cute and sturdy baby pink packaging with a mirror and a powder puff. The texture of the powder is nothing to boast about...Its dry and powdery and chalky and makes me look patchy :(
I'm yet not able to figure out as to why this product is a totally dud for me when I come across positive reviews of it. Could be the shade Soft Bisque is too light on me (NC 35ish)
But the formula isn't anywhere close to...smooooth :/
My Likes:
1. Cute Packaging.
2. Sturdy... Travel friendly
3. Comes with a mirror and powder puff.
4. Light on pocket when on discount.
5. Has SPF 14.

My Dislikes:
1. The shade (soft Bisque) is light on me.
2. The texture is not smooth.
3. Doesn't spread easily.
4. Leaves a patchy finish.
5. Doesn't photograph well.
6. Very Chalky.
7. Avon misunderstands shine-free with dry :/
8. Images on the catalog are not colour-true
9. You need an Avon Rep to get this.

Last Word:
Though light on pocket is heavy on face :/
I'm using the existing one on my neck :(

Repurchase:
Hell...NO

Over All Rating: 2/5 (2 for good packaging,else...)
