Lavender Body Dusting Powder With Puff for Women, 3.5 Ounce

Love the smell, its light but gentle smelling.

Love this powder!!! smell great & real powder!!! Not cornstarch!!!

The reviews here are baffling. I can't believe how many people don't know how to open the container of a box of powder with a puff! This is NOT some new design, this is how boxes of body powder have been made for generations. Some people complained that the ribbon "handle" pulled right off when they pulled on it. Others complained that their powder box didn't have a ribbon "handle" at all. I can appreciate that the manufacturer might be leaving the ribbons off now, for the simple reason that so many people are confused by it! Spoiler alert: It's NOT a handle! The box opens by holding the cylinder by its sides, giving a slight twist to get it started, and lifting the entire cylinder up. Helpful hint - use both hands. One to hold the box by the bottom rim and the other to lift off the sides and top all in one piece. I can't believe that people are actually cutting their way into the box! Egad. As for the product itself, it has a light floral scent, but if it's Lily of the Valley it's very vaguely Lily of the Valley. It smells more like a mix of florals rather than one note, and I don't recognize Lily of the Valley in there at all. It's an OK fragrance, but it smells fairly generic to me, and definitely not upscale. It also seems to fade quickly once applied. Generally I can still notice the scent of body powders for at least several hours, but this one faded almost immediately. That said, it is still talc, and very smooth and silky on the skin. Much moreso than, say, cornstarch based products. But class action suits against Johnson & Johnson for alleged cancer caused by use of their talcum powder has resulted in many manufacturers discontinuing use of talc in body powder (it's still used in many other cosmetics), even though after much scientific research and numerous studies, the results have been inconclusive and there has never been any definitive proof that asbestos contamination in the talc has actually ever caused gynecological cancers. But if you want to avoid talc, don't buy this one.

This is the third Woods of Windsor powder product I've tried and I love it! I've purchased both their lavender and their rose powder and liked both of them, too, although I'm having a hard time if my favorite is the lavender or the lily of the valley fragrance. Some people have complained about the packaging. I think they've improved the powder "spilling" problem by shipping the powder container in shrink-wrap. You still have to be careful when you first open the box, and maybe open it over a plate so you can catch any powder that spills. Some people have also mentioned that the black fabric pull tab on the top was missing and that they had to cut the top of the box off. I don't know why they did that. You can just twist the container lid off even if the pull-tab is missing. Maybe they didn't realize that? Seems obvious to me, since that's how most powder boxes are made??? A lovely product with a delightful, fresh, light fragrance. Will continue to purchase their products.

Package is smaller than it appears in the photo. Scent is not true lavender although it’s OK.

Smell very good. The case is pretty.

(Originally ranked 5 stars) I purchased this at Marshall's, but came here looking for it so I could buy some more when mine runs out. I love dusting powder, but it's getting harder and harder to find. This powder is silky soft, the puff is a good size (not too large or small), and the packaging is sturdy. I keep the plastic insert mine has to keep the puff fresh, and off the powder when not in use. I love using this before bed - it sweetly scents the sheets, and is so soft and subtle a fragrance. Will definitely buy this again and will get it here when I do. UPDATED REVIEW: Since I wrote the review above, I've run out of my original purchase from Marshall's. I ordered the Amazon item above and received it last week. I can't possibly say how DISAPPOINTING this powder now is. It no longer has the sweet light fragrance of lily of the valley. As one other reviewer noted, it really does smell just like an off brand of baby powder. I do plan to write to Woods of Windsor directly and tell them how sad it is that they have clearly ruined a beautiful scent by changing their formula. Having them side by side, I really can tell the difference, and it is NOT subtle. Knocking this down to one star - and they only get that for the nice packaging and silky feel of the product.

The scent is incredible. I was baffled by how to open the container. Even tho the reviewer made me feel stupid, I was delighted to read a review that instructed me on how to open the container. Once that was mastered, everything is good. Because of the lack of instruction on how to open, I would not give this as a gift. But it was not intended as a gift anyway, I bought it for myself. Once it is used up, I will probably reorder.

المنتج لطيفة الا ان موزع البودرة مصنع بطريقة رخيصة تحرمك من الاستمتاع بفخامة البودرة ، كما انه وصلني بطريقة غير لائقة في كيس بلاستيكي وقد سكب من البودرة جزء غير يسير .

Todo muy bien. Llegó a tiempo. Envoltura y contenido completo y en orden. Solo me hubiera gustado que el perfume sea más penetrante o con más aroma. Por lo demás, muy bien.

Hunted high and low for talcum powder in chemists and other high street shops, seems it is not a fashionable toiletries these days, so was thrilled to find it on good old Amazon. Ordered on Friday and it arrived the next day, I bought this for myself but if you have elderly female relatives this a great gift also comes in other perfumes and am sure they would be as thrilled as I am with this old time excellent product.

Thios is a wonderfully feminine product. Delicate and soft. The effort that has been made here is wonderful. Great attention to detail on the container and a non "poof" powder chanber. Product doesnt get 'sticky' and has a soft scent.
