Rimmel Stay Matte Pressed Powder Review


I got this in a gift basket for Christmas two years ago. I was only set in my ways when it came to my powder, foundations and concealers. But, you cant complain about trying something new that you got for free.

I apply a thin spritz of setting spray, then do my concealer and foundation, spritz a little more setting spray and when that dries I put on some of this powder. I usually do one to two layers of this powder and it comes off kind of sheer. I use 001 Transparent Shine Control. Yes im very white and have to use the lightest color.

The powder does what it says, it helps with Shine Control and Stays Matte. I love the way it feels after ive applied it, my skin actually feels like normal, not like ive layered on foundation, setting spray, concealer and powder. I dont like the way my skin looks though. I always apply a second layer of powder after I finish my eye makeup, but the powder is my own creation and covers everything.

This is a very good powder for those days where you just need light coverage. If youre going to the beach or just heading to work or any casual occasion, this is perfect. But for more fancy occasions and settings I would recommend going with something else because this comes off kind of sheer. The powder doesnt conceal very well in pictures, so I would recommend something thicker for occasions where you will be taking a lot of pictures.
