Holy grail setting powder

I brought this product a few months back because I was seeing everyone rave about it on youtube so I decided to try it. My skin only tends to get oily half way through the day and only in my t-zone and because of my job I don't really have time to duck away and touch up so after trying this for awhile I've noticed how it nicely it keeps my skin looking matte and fresh, even by 5pm! I love how cheap it is as well, definitely one of the best setting powders I have tried!

Wonderful for Less !

I am a long time user of Rimmel and generally try most of their products based on my good experiences with theirs . My powder had just run out when I saw the Rimmel Stay Matte range had hit NZ stores , so I purchased one . I love that they have a large range of shades , including ones pale enough for my skin . I also love the consistency and easy blending capability of the product . Not much powder needs to be used for a great finish . This product also provides great payoff , and lasts well throughout the day . It sets make up perfectly but is easy enough to remove at the end of the day .

A small price tag on a great product

I didn't expect much from this product simply because of the small price tag, but I had run out of my MAC Mineralize Skin Finish and couldn't afford to repurchase it. I bought Stay Matte in the shade Transparent, as I'm olive skinned, there were no testers and I didn't want to risk purchasing a shade that would leave me looking orange or too pale. I've hit pan after using this for about a month and am highly impressed with it's performance - I rarely have to touch up when I usually have to powder once an hour due to my oily skin. I haven't yet seen whether this causes ghost skin when using a flash camera but the colour truly is transparent and creates a silky finish. I will be repurchasing and would highly recommend this to anyone with oily skin on a budget.

Tips: Purchase the transparent shade if you're unsure of your colour, there were no testers when I bought this and I didn't find the swatches I found on google very helpful.

Holy Grail product!

I looooooove this powder! I get it in translucent and it just sets my makeup altogether really well. Such a good price for what you get and it lasts ages as well, can't recommend this powder enough ,especially if you have oily skin!

Holy grail drugstore product

I love this pressed powder by Rimmel I feel as though it does everything it should do in a powder and at that price you can't get any better. I buy mine from ASOS for about $8.00 plus it's free shipping so it's almost half the price that it would cost when buying it from farmers. Highly recommend to someone who doesn't want to spend a lot of money but still get good results.

Tips: Don't cake up your face with the powder remember to tap of excess and build it up.

Rimmel stay matte powder

This is my go to setting powder to apply after any liquid or mousse foundation I may be using. I use the translucent powder. It makes my foundation last well throughout the day and while it is not completely matte as the name may suggest it does keep most shine away.

Tips: Be careful with the packaging, the plastic lid will crack very easily.

Matte Power

I really do like this powder I go between this and my e.l.f one. It gives a great finish to your makeup without leaving it feel heavy or look over the top. With this I don't tend to have to retouch my powder through the day. This is a good product for the price and usually is on special on ASOS.com.

Tips: Use lightly with a big powder brush.

Pressed Powder

I have to say that I love most Rimmel products and this one is no different. It gives a great finish to your make up without feeling heavy or looking cakey. I do have quite a shiny nose and usually have to touch up during the day but I found this really made a difference. At such a great price too it's a great make up bag must have!

Not overly impressed

I had heard the hype all about this product so purchased one from ASOS in Transparent. I use it all over my face with a powder brush after applying my foundation to set it.

It definitely doesn't keep my skin Matte all day. After a few hours my T-zone starts to look a bit shiny. I do like how it basically blends into the skin so it doesn't look powdery and it does smell nice but I prefer my MAC studio fix over this I think. It is a good drugstore powder if you don't want to spend a lot and just want to set your foundation. Would probably suit people with more drier/non oily skin types.

The only thing I really dislike is the packaging- it feels cheap and cracks quite easily and I wouldn't trust carrying it around in my bag all day.

Tips: You do need to top up the powder during the day to keep away the shine.

Must have!

This powder is my go to all time favourite. It is such a good price and truly does what it says..keeps you foundation matte and on all day! I couldn't go without it. I have been using this for about a year now and have to re-purchase as soon as I run out!!
