How to fill your compact with powder
Loose, pressed or both powders?
Most of my compacts are convertible. They can be filled with any loose powder, or pressed powder refills by Max Factor, Rimmel, Estee and more. The rest, mainly my pre-1960 vintage compacts, were made for your loose powder.
Check "Which powder" in the description of your favourite compact, then take a look at the quick powder tips below...
