Please Bring Back the Old Compact Case!

April 25, 2013
By Mysmartha
from San Diego, CA
"I've used CG Clean pressed powder for decades. I'm so frustrated! I purchased three of these, hoping the flimsy hinge was a fluke. All three have broken. No more; it's a defective product! Didn't you guys do any R&D? Please bring back the old case!"

By ophelia

"I bought this product by "accident" because I had left my usual powder at home. Wow! It makes my skin glow and I love the clean feel and smell. I am African American and have tried the Queen CG, I was not impressed. This is amazing!!"

Unexpected Satisfaction

February 21, 2013
By Angelique
from Ithaca, NY
"This line had a light shade perfect for me but for normal skin & oddly this controls oil better than the oil control line of powder CG has and it doesn't darken on my skin after a few hours! I have always loved the Noxema clean scent of CG's powders."

Worst decision ever & NEVER will purchase again!

February 11, 2013
By TeenUser
from San Gabriel, CA
"I am SO disappointed. The pressed powder smells awful. The makeup makes my pores more noticeable and my skin VERY dry. NO coverage, it really is useless on my skin. The compact is incredibly difficult even with their instructions on how to open it."

Why is it turning hard?

January 13, 2013
By jkmartinez2
from Jacksonville, FL
"I have used this product for 30 years. The last 4 of these I have bought have turned hard. The puff will not get any powder on it as the surface of the powder get hard spots. In order to use it you have to scrape it with something."

Great Foundation With No Cakeyness

December 20, 2012
By sanaismommy1
from Denver, CO
"I absolutely love this powder foundation. I actually use it as a setting powder to the tinted moisturizer they have and it just makes my skin look smooth and flawless without looking heavy. I'll try the oil control one next, however."

BRING BACK OLD DESIGN

June 19, 2012
By Alhb
from Atlanta, GA
"Like most of the reviewers on here, I love the product but HATE the new design. The mirror keeps breaking off and its hard to close. PLEASE go back to the convenient, smaller design. After all, it is called a compact."

Still this awful design....

June 5, 2012
By Kozski
from Avon, OH
"I have used this product for more than 20 years and today I purchased a different brand. When the hinge broke on the first one I figured maybe I had done something wrong, when the second one broke I decided to stop wasting my money."

I am sorry to hear the hinge broke, we can certainly replace it for you. Here are some recommendations for opening the product: To open, turn the compact sideways. While holding the bottom place the end of your thumb under the large indentation in the lid (green arrow).

New packing is just dumb

May 22, 2012
By SDBlondeandGreen
from San Diego, CA
"I hated the new packaging so much I switched to Tru Blend. Also when the new packaging came something changed in the formula. My standby Creamy Natural became ASH too light natural color instead. Change it back!! The Tru Blend mirror is too small."

One More Broken Nail!

January 23, 2012
By catte
from Richmond, VA
"After one more broken nail & frustration trying to open my CG compact, I made the decision to look for another brand. Am 65 & have been using CG pressed powder since I was 15 - no complaints until now. Reading the reviews, I see I am not alone."

Response from CoverGirl:By JennyCoverGirl TeamJanuary 26, 2012
It is great to hear from a loyal consumer. I am sorry you had a problem opening the compact. We design it so it will not spill in purses. Here are some instructions for opening the compact for future use:
o To open, turn the compact sideways.
o While holding the bottom place the end of your thumb under the large indentation in the lid (green arrow).
If you would like we can help you find a new CoverGirl favorite, give us a call at 1-800-426-8374.

LOVE THE MAKEUP BUT HATE THE NEW COMPACT DESIGN

By SDJca
from Redding Ca
"I have bee using Cover girl make up since the early 80s and really love it, but I must agree with so many others on here, I really hate the new design. I will not stop using Cover girl, but I surely hope that you will go back to the other compact."
