Innisfree No-Sebum Powder vs Pact: Which Format to Buy?
Innisfree’s No-Sebum Mineral Powder and Mineral Pact share a family name, but the first is a loose powder in a sifter jar and the second is a pressed compact. The Korean listings also show different quantities and ingredient lists. Choose the handling format first, then check the exact product label.
A loose jar and a pressed compact solve different handling problems
The Korean No-Sebum Mineral Powder listing identifies the standard product as 5 g. Its product explanation describes dispensing powder through small holes at the top of the container onto a puff or brush. You are picking up loose powder, rather than rubbing an applicator across a solid pan.
The Korean No-Sebum Mineral Pact listing identifies the compact as 8.5 g. Innisfree presents it as the portable option within the No-Sebum family and emphasizes avoiding loose-powder scatter. That is the practical reason to shortlist the pact for touch-ups away from your dressing table. It is the brand's positioning, rather than a result from our own bag or wear test.
For a brush routine at home, the loose 5 g jar is the format to compare. For a compact you can open and use away from a dressing table, start with the pressed 8.5 g pact. Treat this as a handling choice; the two ingredient lists do not establish which controls shine for longer.
The ingredient lists are different, too
These are not simply two containers filled with an identical formula. In the Korean information disclosures checked on October 15, 2026, the powder's list starts with silica, aluminum starch octenylsuccinate and dimethicone/vinyl dimethicone crosspolymer. The pact's list starts with mica, silica and octyldodecyl stearoyl stearate; it also lists squalane.
That difference is useful when replacing a product you already know. Compare the ingredient list for the exact format you intend to buy, rather than transferring your experience with the loose powder to the pact. The listed ingredients alone do not tell us which feels better, which suits sensitive skin or which controls shine for longer. Those questions need evidence beyond a packaging comparison.
To compare cost, divide the price you would actually pay by 5 g for the powder or 8.5 g for the pact, using the same currency and including shipping. The pact contains 1.7 times the stated mass, so it has a lower price per gram only when its total price is less than 1.7 times the powder’s total. That calculation compares quantity, not cost per application or wear performance.
What the Korean powder directions actually say
For the loose powder, the Korean information disclosure directs users to pick up product with a puff or brush and tap it onto oily areas. Its explanatory text describes the sifter holes as the dispensing point. The direction concerns targeted application; it does not require a thick layer over the entire face.
The pact's information-disclosure section did not display a usage sentence when checked. Follow the directions supplied with the exact compact you receive, rather than assuming every extra use promoted for the loose powder applies to it. In particular, this comparison does not turn either product into a foundation replacement or make claims about sunscreen protection.
Read the full name before selecting an option
The Korean powder page links to several other No-Sebum products, including Moisture Powder, AC Powder, Mineral Twinkle Powder and Powder Cushion. A shared family name is not enough to identify the standard Mineral Powder. Save the full product name, format and quantity from the item you want to replace.
파우더 means powder; 팩트 identifies the compact here. Look for 노세범 미네랄 파우더 5g or 노세범 미네랄 팩트 8.5g when matching these two checked Korean listings. Also read whether the selected option is a single item, set or special edition. Do not infer contents from a photograph of several products.
If you are replacing your loose Mineral Powder, choose the same full name and 5 g format. Switching to the 8.5 g pact changes both handling and the listed formula. If you are choosing base-makeup coverage instead, our cushion-foundation guide covers that separate purchase.
