Lakme rose powder is a loose powder something similar to a compact powder.But it does not have any staying power.I have combination skin and this rose powder was utter fail on my skin.Initially when I applied this powder on my t-zone it looked fine but probably after 1-2 hours my nose , chin and forehead was already shiny. The powder literally was no more there.And packing is also not convinient that we can carry it with us keep reapplying.Something els is it has only light to medium coverage so you really cannot expect it to cover any scars.I would prefer other compact powders which gives much coverage, lasts much more longer and has more shade options.This powder has only two shades.
