Chinese First Lady Peng Liyuan experienced a makeup issue during a state dinner at London's GuildHall, hosted by the city's Lord Mayor, Alderman Alan Yarrow.

According to reports, her facial powder, believed to be loose silica, wore off, causing an embarrassing situation. This type of powder has also affected other celebrities, including Angelina Jolie and Kate Winslet, in the past.

The event was attended by notable guests, including Prince Andrew. The silica powder can create a flawless look in person but may appear differently in photographs, especially when taken with a camera flash.
