Hi,
I have used Barbara Daly face powder, fair, for years but our Tesco and Tescos generally don't seem to be restocking it.
I need a good compact, with mirror, at reasonable price pronto!
Any suggestions?
Thank you for your help...

No 7 powder compact.

Sleek
They have it at our big Tesco Extra (huge Beauty dept rather than just an aisle)
Nice black case (blighter to open) mirror.

Thank you all. Some options!
Not got a Tesco Extra near us but will check Sleek out.
Boots no 7 definite possibility.
Both more expensive than Barbara Daly but need new face powder before end of week and seems impossible to get hold of. [Dropped mine and bit of a mess now].
Think my Mum a fan of Boots no 7 and we have similar colouring.

Ahh, Boots do Sleek too I think and maybe not that pricey either.
Shall look at all 3 options been given. Thank you all.

I've read that Collection powder is the same as Mac, but not tried it yet myself.

Thanks all. Went for Boots No 7 in the end. Bit more expensive but hopefully last a while. Got myself foundation matched etc for the first time. Balked at price of No 7 moisturisers and sticking to my cheap tube of Nivea
Gone for a warmer shade of powder rather than my usual fair.

I hate make up counters and all their warm ivory, cool ivory, calico etc. Brings me out in a hot flush!
