Go to, Must have powder!

The translucent powder is truly a go to, must have powder as a finishing touch or to set a liquid product if you tend to be a bit shiny or have oily skin. The translucent one is very light weight and the powder is milled so finely it doesn't feel or look like you've got anything on.

Tips: If I feel super oily I use it first thing on a clean face. Then use sunscreen and then powder again with a brush to help absorb any oiliness or shine coming through and I'm good to go for the day.

Rimmel Stay Matte Pressed Powder

Absolutely love this powder! It's easily accessible, really affordable and lasts a long time!

I have combination skin, and, at first, I was wary of this product because of the title "Stay Matte". But I can use this powder to set my whole face and it gives it a matte appearance without drying my face out at all.

Definitely recommend this powder, for all skin types!

#1 Affordable powder

I purchased the translucent version of this product as I'm always concerned about powders being too orange or changing the colour of my foundation. But I'm pleased to report that this was ideal and left a smooth and matte finish. It's also a great price as I think I paid $10 or $11, and I often see it on special at Countdown and Kmart.

The only downside is that there's no mirror, however for the price of this product I can let this slide.

Tips: Just be careful when screwing on the lid, as mine cracked a bit.

Best value for money

Great wee matte powder for keeping away the shine, just dust over your foundation, takes a few seconds to apply. Keeps away the shine. Very economical buy, lasts for ages.

The best shine controller

From the very first use it worked a charm. It controls shine for about a good 2 - 3 hours and after that gives skin a nice satin finish.

Good thing is also that powder doesn't splatter everywhere!

One thing I wish it had was a brush or powder applicator! I have managed to find one however would have liked one to come along.

My trustiest Powder

This powder and I have gone through thick and thin together. I have used it pretty much non stop for a year. I love it - it's fresh and light, it doesn't cake up at all, its affordable, it's easily accessible you can find it at The Warehouse and Farmers... It's all I want in a powder!

I typically use it to set my concealer and my T - zone because I get really oily there. However it does not keep me matte all day (maybe around 4-6 hours) but it does a great job of setting my makeup.

The only cons of the product is the packaging. Mine is extremely scratched and battered as the plastic case breaks pretty easily. Apart from that it's really good, I mean who cares about the packaging when the powder is bomb

Tips: You might need to repowder every 4-5 hours if you would like to stay matte all day

Give me Matte!

So, I'm an oily skin type kinda gal, so I'm always looking for products that are going to mattify my skin when I'm really needing that long-lasting effect, therefore, after a LONG time of hearing a lot of hype about this product - from your standard makeup users to your YouTubers... I decided to give it a go.

First Impression: The packaging was simplistic, which I am a fan off, and because you can see through the lid, you can tell exactly what colour you're going to get. My only negative for the packaging is that my lid doesn't stay on well... which means I have to keep it inside a pocket otherwise it will come off and cause havoc in my makeup bag.

On the skin? I was really pleased, it certainly mattifies the skin but my only word of caution is that being too generous with the powder can create a cakey look especially in the t-zone (for me at least), but provided you're using a big fluffy powder brush, I think you'll be just fine.

Longevity? This product definitely adds to this! I paired it with a matte foundation and I was super impressed with how long it lasted and kept that shiny oily look away.

Overall? Aside from the few little downsides - which is just me being picky - I think this products remains true to the hype. It does what it say's it's going too and it's amazing value for money.

Tips: Be careful not to use too much product or it can look cakey. To avoid, apply with a large, fluffy powder brush.

Rimmel Stay Matte Pressed Powder

Hi all, the drugstore product i am reviewing today is RIMMEL STAY MATTE long lasting pressed powder in transparent (001) Price: The product retails for around 17nzd. Packaging: The packaging is fragile. Its not very travel friendly. Suitable skin type: Most suitable for oily skin. Purpose: It is easily One of the best translucent powders with a light weight formula, very easy to blend , controls shine beautifully , minimizes the appearance of pores and the best part, it is translucent. For those who are new to this term, it does not has its own colour and therefore does not add an extra layer of texture on your foundation. Unlike most translucent HD powders, it did not flashback. Overall, a great budget friendly powder to provide a flawless finish to your makeup.The only downside is it's packaging.

Tips: Apply it lightly with a fluffy brush( real techniques powder brush works like magic with this) all over your face in circular motion.It soaks up excess oil,minimize appearance of pores and fine lines and give you a flawless finish.
