Favourite powder

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 favourite products

This is one of those products that takes the cake for me. Not only is it cheap, it's an amazing product. My only down side would be the packaging. I am not lid - mine seem to come of and break every time. Regardless, my skin is oily and this product is perfect. After applying my foundation with a beauty blender, I 'dot' the powder all over my face using a blending brush by RT. It sets my foundation and gives me great full coverage. It also makes an excellent base for powder bronzers and blush.

I took it with me on holiday to Vanuatu and it even withstood the heat and stopped the rest of my makeup sliding off my face!

Tips: Make sure you tap your brush before applying to your skin to avoid a cakey look

Just your usual setting powder

I have used this powder a few times in my years of makeup, It has been available since i was a teenager. I find it is fantastic as a setting-powder but i wouldn't use it on it's own It smooths my foundation, covers my imperfections, and mattifys it for a nice smooth coverage. I didn't find it was too cakey, but there isn't enough of it haha! Too soon did I hit pan. But luckily the purchase price was reasonable and the warehouse stocks this and often they have 25% off so that's the time to buy this! I would repurchase this

Best Powder

After hearing countless beauty gurus rave about this product I finally picked it up. I was unsure which shade to get but then decided on transparent (because who can go wrong with that?).

This powder has a very nice formula which you can build on if you need. I tend to stick to one small layer since too much of the transparent shade can leave a bit of a white-cast. The powder is great at giving a nice matte finish to dewy foundations and oil. I really do think this powder effects the longevity of my foundation. I use this powder when I play sports (you shouldn't wear foundation when playing sports) and I need the coverage and it makes my foundation/BB cream last.

I would definitely recommend this powder to anyone who has oily skin/foundation that's too dewy for their liking. This product is the best drugstore powder I've tried (and I've tried a lot).

Tips: Tap off excess on your brush to avoid cake face.

My favourite setting powder.

Cheap, effective and does what it says. Love this product. My only complaint is the flimsy packaging!

Tips: Make sure you wrap this in cloth or bubble wrap if you chose to travel with it.

My favourite setting powder

This has to be my holy grail when it comes to setting powder. I use the shade 001 transparent. The powder is fine so it doesn't go on cakey and I find one layer will really nicely set my foundation giving a matte finish, I don't like to apply too much as it can leave a white cast if you go overboard. I find this really helps the other products on my face to last throughout the day. I think this product is more suited to oily skin.

The one down fall of thus product is the packing. It is cheap and plasticy and I find my lid always cracks so it's not a product I can throw in the make up bag and take with me when I go out. But hey you can't just a book by its cover right and the product is great.

Flawless

Powder looks flawless on skin and does not look cakey at all. Perfect to put on either alone to get rid of oily skin or together with a foundation. Beautiful look however doesnt cover pimples very well at all when tested alone

Love, love, love!

Defiantly favourite powder for me. I have oily skin and works great to keep me as matte as possible. Has such a nice finish, i usually use over double wear or nars sheer glow and still gives off good results.

LOVE IT!

This product does exactly what it says I couldn't be happier with it if I tried. It gives a nice after look without looking cakey on either a matte or dewy foundation.

As others have said, the packaging is likely to break but I found that if you wrapnit up in tissue or bubble wrap when travelling then it becomes much more stable.

Another point is that it makes the foundation last so much longer as absorbs the oils on your face therefore 'touchups' aren't necessary.

A great buy I'd say and the price is brilliant compared to high end setting powders

It's a win!!!

Rimmel Stay Matte Powder is my holy grail!!! It goes on so nicely and never looks cakey or gross! I have it in translucent and it seems to give me even more coverage and a more flawless finish! I am so obsessed with this product!

As others have said the packaging is a cheap and likely to break - mine is still intact but I can easily see how it would snap!

I could not recommend this enough! It does exactly what it says it will! I have REALLY oily skin and I can go all day without touch ups when I used my stay matte!! LOVE IT
