STAY MATTE

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!!

No Cake here!

After hearing so much hype on this product, how this is almost everybody's holy grail powder I decided it was definitely time to make a trip to Farmers. It was $15, which I would call a reasonable price for any drugstore item in New Zealand. I do wish that the packaging was slightly nicer looking however the its the product inside that really matters! I've tried many powders before, mostly all caking and gathering around any pesky dry areas on my face. However this amazing magical power did nothing of the sort. Funny enough it did exactly what I wanted it to! The product itself smells pleasant, can be applied thinly and evenly with ease. Definitely a product I will be repurchasing, however I think it'll be awhile before I hit pan!

Tips: This powder is a true translucent powder! Although it wont add coverage it will add a natural looking finish to your makeup and help it last all day :)

Super cheap and super amazing!

This product is my holy grail powder, that i always go back to because it has never failed me. Its super cheap online and even in stores. I personally use the transparent one because i don't like added coverage but this keeps my skin matte but doesn't cake or settle into any fine lines! Easy to apply and I only find that i have to retouch once a day, if that! Love this product and i would recommend to anyone!

Great everyday product

This was the first powder i had ever used and let me just say i fell in love with it. My skin has been getting quite oily recently and i wanted something that would reduce the shine on my face and make my makeup last longer. But i didnt want to look too powdery and dry. I purchased this powder in the transparent shade and it has quickly become an everyday product for me. I love it! It takes away any shine on my face without adding any extra coverage or cakeyness. It doesn't make my skin look dry either. Lasting power wise, its not the best though, i do find i have to touch up several times a day. Someone with extremely oily skin probably wouldn't benefit from it. Being as affordable as it is though, and the amount of product you get its very good value. I would reccomend this to girls with dry/normal/combination skin :)

Tips: Apply over top of foundation using a fluffy powder brush or puff. For best results, touch up through out the day :).

Best translucent powder!

I have this in the shade transparent and it works so so well! When I want a less full coverage look i'll use this to set my foundation and concealer. I use it with a flat top powder brush and I feel like I can also use this under my eyes to set the concealer and it doesn't change the colour of the highlighted area. This product is super cheap and you can buy it almost anywhere. The only thing I don't like about this is the packaging, the lid sucks! It always comes off in my makeup bag so I have to store it face up on my desk.

Tips: Make sure you store this powder safely because you don't want the lid to come of and have the product get damaged.

This is MAGIC!!

For all oily friends out there, this powder is one of the best! Pair it with your favorite foundation and turn matte instantly. I love this product, I love being matte. Love love love!

Tips: Powder the t-zone by dabbing the product in to the face. Then for the least oily places buff it in :)

I've Been Using This For The Last Month and Love!

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.

Tips: Store with a hairtie around it so the lid doesn't just fly off in your handbag. Also dab it into your skin before lightly blending by skimming a brush over for the best effect.

Life Saving

I just can't describe the love I have for this product. It is a life saver for my oily skin! I can use it to get rid of my shine and touch my foundation up, and it doesn't look cakey or patchy! It sets my foundation well and is easy to apply! I have it in the translucent shade so that I can use it with all my foundations!

Bye Bye Shine

I have an oily T-zone, and not the pretty "oooh natural highlighter" sort of way, more of the "you look like you dumped your face in oil" kinda way. Needless to say, I was on the hunt for a powder that not only kept my foundation on all day, but also kept the oil master away. So after seeing this product raved about on YouTube I definitely had to give it a go. And for the past 3 compacts, I NOT been disappointed!

I absolutely love this product. It definitely does what it says and keeps me matte all day - without looking completely flat thought. BONUS! It is very fine and the magical powder particles are like tiny wee fairies that just soak up all the oil - bye bye!

It does not look cakey on my skin and looks great in photos.

Definitely a must have - and at the price, why would you even second guess it?

Tips: Be careful transporting this product as the packaging isn't the sturdiest and the lid does tend to come off - dammit.

Holy Grail

I absolutely, 100% ADORE this product! My T-zone has the tendency to get quite oily, but not with Rimmel Stay Matte on the case. I have this in the shade "translucent" which actually is translucent (say whaaaaat???) and it is the perfect finishing touch to my face no matter where I'm going or what I'm doing. I just swirl a fluffy powder brush around in it, give the brush a tap to get rid of the excess then buff it all over my face. Oh, and did I mention that it's one of the cheaper powders on the market? Cause it is - score! 11/10 recommend you buy it!

Tips: None at all, this stuff is perfection. I just want to roll around in it haha
