Rimmel London Stay Matte Pressed Powder Review

This is perfect for setting your foundation or turning it to a nicer matte finish. I dust it on and do an extra layer around my nose to set my foundation so it doesnt slide. Very light weight and doesnt cake up or flake off on me, which is a plus. Sometimes if im in a rush ill use it just on my face without makeup to take away some of the oil/shine to have a more fresher look. I paid $8 on trademe so well worth it. Its a must in my beauty kit.

Amazing powder available at a very affordable price. I got mine for under $10 off asos with free shipping. I find this gives the same if not better results than similar products from higher end brands for A LOT less money

Sets foundation so well with a full coverage finish i love it!!

I have used this pressed powder for many years now. It is very easily accessible and well priced which helps!

I find the powder doesn't go orange on my skin when I have worn it for a while. It does help mattify my skin as my skin can get a bit oily (especially working in an air conditioned office) and it does have pretty good, easily built up coverage.

I don't often wear a full face but I use this powder on top of BB cream when I want to feel a bit more "dolled up but still casual". It stays on for most of the day - or night if I am out on the town. It doesn't feel cakey either.

I love this powder! I use the translucent one and it's quite cheap and mine has lasted me for months and I use almost every day. My t-zone (especially my nose) is quite oily but this keeps my makeup in place for the whole day. By the end of the day, my nose is a wee bit shiny but at least my makeup hasn't completely oiled off.

One of my fave powders. Def remcommend. Makes makeup last such longer. Definitely prevents shine. Amazing product

I love the embossed powder it just looks so neat!!

I swirl my brush around and tappa tappa tappa it over my face. Shine be gone! Its probably a bit too matte though and sticks to my dry skin like a dung beetle to his beloved ball of.. well. You know what.

Wouldnt repurchase, sadly!

I've tried a fair few powders in my time and this one is definitely one that I keep coming back to. The Rimmel Stay Matte Pressed Powder is perfection - it does exactly what its out to do.. Make me stay nice and matte for the day.

I find that most powders can either cake up and crack or they just do not last and end up having to have touch ups throughout the day. This powder has neither of these issues for me, I stay mostly matte (until I get home at the end of the day).

The product is easy to apply. It comes in a fabulous range in shades but I stick with the transparent.

The Rimmel Stay Matte Pressed Powder is definitely on my buy again list. I would recommend it to anyone who is after a matte powder thats going to last (most) of the day.

I bought this after hearing and reading endless great reviews. I use it everyday, applying in with a powder brush all over my face. I occasionally reapply later in the day. I find that it makes my skin matte, but not cakey looking.

My only gripe is the packaging. The lid is a clear bit of plastic that just pulls off - it does not twist on or anything - meaning that it is quite flimsy and prone to breaking. I have cracks in the lid even though I am careful with it.

I do find that you hit pan quite quickly on this, but then it takes a long time to use the rest of the powder.

It's so good that I bought three backups when they were on sale on Asos.

Do I stay matte..? Up to a point, yes :) I do have oily skin so this works to an extent and then I have to touch up with some blot powder during the day (currently using Neutrogena shine control - Invisible)

I pat this onto my Tzone with a brush and it doesn't look chalky or cakey and then lightly brush the rest of my face. It does have some oily control compared to regular powder but don't expect a miracle.

It is super affordable and there is a range of colours to choose from. Just don't throw this into your handbag as the lid will probably break or come off.
