Rimmel London Stay Matte Pressed Powder Review

This is a great powder, applies nicely and does the job. So affordable too (online) Can't really fault it at all! Packaging is a little boring but hey, can't have it all!

Not really a big fan of this product anymore, i used to love it. I find when ever i use this product on top of my liquid foundation it is really drying on my skin and i don't even have dry skin.

This was the first powder I used and at the time I quite liked it, however now that I've tried other products I find this to be not as great as others. It applies well and it IS mattifying and does it's job, however I have oily skin and it isn't oil free so I find it makes my skin even oilier or it just basically slides off! It isn't terrible but it doesn't last all day for me and that's the main reason why I use powder - to make my foundation last all day! So not a winner for me! Also the packaging is a bit cheap and it breaks really easy which is quite annoying

I bought this to alternate with my MAC powder, this is an amazing product for the price, it keeps my face matte, and sets my makeup really well. They have a great range of shades, and ASOS often have them on sale too. Its smoothes into my skin well, and does not leave my face looking powdery or chalky.

I purchased this because I wanted to make my makeup last super long for a formal evening function a few weeks ago and have been using it for the last month. Super happy to see it on BR because it's both my first and favourite matte pressed powder!

I do a lot of in-front-of-camera work and shiny skin is the bane of my existence. This stuff instantly mattifies and, if you get one of the tinted versions, smooths out your skin tone. I prefer using 01 Transparent though, so that the contouring is seen clearly. It pats on white, buti f you blend it with a fluffy brush, it goes transparent. You can try on your hand to see for yourself. I have combination skin, but recommended to a friend with very oily skin (teenage woes). No matter how oily you are, it will mattify. Magic.

It also definitely makes creamy foundations longer lasting. I was using some foundation sticks that have a creamy gel formula and I found they were wiping off quite easily and also shifting around the place. The powder kept it in place flawlessly without any touchups at all for 8h, which I thought was pretty impressive.

I love this, it's so affordable! Complete Rimmel London fan.

In regards to affordable powders this by far is the best. I have repurchased time and time again this powder in Translucent. I simply swipe my powder brush in the pan, then apply all over my face and neck. If I need to top it up during the day then it doesn't look cakey, and keeps my skin looking fresh, clean and gorgeous. The only problem doesn't lie with the product but with the packaging, the plastic top is easy to break or come off it placed in your bag... So be wary and maybe put it into a wee makeup bag with things you don't mind getting powder all over :)

This is a really decent powder and I have brought more than a few. I usually go for the translucent one. It is a great finishing powder however it is not the best at keeping skin matte.

I adore this powder it keeps my oily skin matte for a relatively long period of time. My only complain is i hit pan quickly and the packaging is useless as it doesn't stay closed.

This product is a average for me, yes it's good at setting my make up and yes it is matte but I feel it doesn't last and my current product I use has a much better finish, in saying that this is a cheaper product, if used lightly and reapplied if needed it will do the job it's a product that will last you longer then the packaging no doubt though sadly, needs to be in proper compact but can't complain too much as it is cheap!!

I have this product in transparent and sand beige. And I like it in both colours! I have used this for about a year now and it is amazing! It doesn't give your face the 'cakey' look. I use this over my foundation or BB cream using the ELF flat top foundation brush to apply it. It sets foundation really well and leaves your face looking flawless. I cannot recommend this enough also if you want to save an additional $5 or so have a look on asos.com

The only downside I would say about this products is that it seems to have a small amount of product and I hit pan pretty quickly.
