Old Time Favorite

February 27, 2012
By JKadinee
from Goldsboro, North Carolina
"I have been using this powder since I was in junior high. I love the product and the smell of it. I just don't like the new packaging. Please change it back! But other than the packaging I love the powder and how it combats shine."

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."

BRING BACK OLD COMPACT DESIGN

July 9, 2011
By AndieDodge
from Dayton, OH
"I loved this powder, and most of all loved the old compact design, which was slim, sleek, classy looking, and easy to open. The new compact design is ugly and bulky. Changing the Clean line was by far CG's worst marketing decision yet!"

By CGlover81

Time to change brands

June 28, 2011
By KALF
from Scottsdale, AZ
"As a user of CoverGirl's Clean Pressed Powder for over 15 years, I'm very disappointed in the new design. The size is big, bulky and heavy. The hinges on my two new compacts broke within a month of buying and one no longer snaps shut. Poor job."

"What were you thinking??? I have used this product for 35 years. Now you decide to use the cheapest hinge you could find. The hinge completely breaks every time before the powder is half gone. I am changing to a different manufacturer TODAY."
