Rimmel London Stay Matte Pressed Powder Review

I have been unfortunately blessed with oily skin and have been looking for a product for awhile which would combat my oily t-zone whilst not having to reapply it through the day. Rimmel matte powder really does what it says it does, it adsorbs oil throughout the day keeping you looking fresh, and it is absolutely fantastic for the price. Although I do have a nit picks about it, i find it can come out looking quite powdery/cakey on the face. Also the colours are quite difficult to match correctly, seeing this I went for the transparent shade and it can make me end up looking super white and ghost-y

This is by far my favorite powder! set my makeup perfectly doesn't look cakey and last well all day!

I have super oily, super pale skin, and have tried every powder available! This is way better than any other powder I have tried (including MAC), it stays in place really well, and is one of the only powders around to match my skin tone. This is the perfect powder for setting the Rimmel Stay Matte foundation. The price is a bonus, too!

I picked up a bunch of Rimmel products super cheap on Asos.com, and this was a personal fave. Nothing life changing, but for under ten bucks, an absolute steal. I like to top up powder throughout the day to keep a matte finish, so am always keen for a product that won't leave a powdery layer - this one blends well and leaves a smooth finish.

Amazing price point Consistent performance and compliments a variety of foundations Excellent to use with work make up and keeping oil ‘at bay’ when doing strenuous work Sets make up and does not seem to irritate my sensitive skin

I use transparent in this powder to set my foundation. I use it only in my T zone and on my chin as that is where I find I need to set foundation. Really awesome powder for the price!

I used to think this was the best powder in town, keeping me fairly matte for the majority of the day but the packaging was off putting and I couldn't carry it in my bag so I switched back to my Maybelline shine control powder in the blue compact and only then did I realize how cakey and heavy this Rimmel powder was. So this once HG worthy product has now been retired for extremely hot and oily days at the back of my draw.

This is my everyday powder which I absolutely love.

I wear the colour Silky Beige which is good for light/medium skin tones and gives some warmth to light skin.

It is great for oily skin and really helps to keep you skin matter for longer. I probably do a touch up around 2pm and then I am good to go for the rest of the day.

It is quite a dense product so I find that it gives good coverage if you are not wearing foundation. However the down side of this is I don't think the product lasts that long compared to MACs Studio Finish.

All round good cheap product that does what it says!

This powder is my holy grail, it does what it says it does and is good for all skin types. It's not heavily purfumed so it causes little, if none irritation. If you put too much on it becomes to look cakey and sits on the top of your skin.

This is hands down the best pressed powder that really works for me. It stays long and keeps my face matte all day. And it smells like roses a bit. It just works for me. I've used it for two years now. And I have never look for any other powder now.
