IZU is not a very well-known brand in Singapore. But I'm sure most of you will know True Colours located at Ngee Ann City Shopping Centre, Basement 1. They carry other brands like Laura Mercier and such, but under the intro of Shitty (she haven't tried, I try first), I decided to give IZU a chance since my Silky Girl Loose Powder was running out.
It costs S$61.90 for 20g of precious powder (as compared to Silky Girl, S$9.90 for about the same amount and that will be reviewed at a later post). After using it for 2 weeks. I think the price is worth it.
Usually for office ladies, loose powder will be the first to run/ "dissolve" for their make up. But IZU proved to be quite lasting on my face. But what I like about it the most is that the texture is fantastic. It's fine so your face don't look powdery or 'grainy' and it covers your pores as well! The difference with and without the loose powder on is evident (at least to me). I use BB Cream, not foundation, for your information.
Oil control wise, I would say it's ok too. I don't go for the super matte look and prefer a bit of shine. So for those of you who have oily skin and prefer matte look, perhaps you'll have to transfer a portion to a smaller case for bringing out for touch-ups.
Conclusion: It's worth the buy.

Add on: Took some photos for 'evidence'. Please do not feel disgusted by such close up and high resolutions photo of my pores.
Picture above is before loose powder, after BB Cream.
These 2 pictures above are after loose powder.Absolutely no photoshop at all.
Considering that these photos are taken right after application, and the make up is not 'set' yet, I would say it did a good job.
