Is it necessary for me to apply a compact powder after i apply a foundation on my face?

No, it’s not. Actually, after the foundation, you can use loose powder to “set” the makeup so it will last longer. The compact is basically for touch ups during the day.Is it necessary for me to apply a compact powder after i apply a foundation on my face?
if you use a liquid foundation or a tinted moisturizer people generally apply powder just to set the liquid in place so when you start to sweat, the liquid foundation won't start to melt %26amp; slide all over your face.Is it necessary for me to apply a compact powder after i apply a foundation on my face?
Nope...only if you want to. I like to, because I think it makes my face look more ';finished';. But some people don't like the cakey look...so its totally personal.
no .....powder can be a very heavy look..and too matte..

keep it natural...dewy %26amp; fresh....
No it's not a necessity but it will ';set'; your foundation which will keep the foundation on you face longer.
I think that you can just to smooth out the look and I know. I always thought that I would never wear that much makeup. but it makes the look come together just use a powder brush,
What kind of foundation do you use? I use a stick - Maybelline 3-1. As others have said, the powder ';sets'; the foundation. I couldn't imagine not using the powder w/the stick - I think the stick w/o the powder would get too shiney. Stop at a good make-up counter at the mall and ask.
Not really if the foundation is adequate. Try translucent loose powder.
Some people like to because they think it ';sets'; the make-up and gives a more finished look. Personally, I don't like clogging my pores and wearing more make-up than I have to. I don't apply powder after applying foundation, and my skin always has a nice natural, healthy look to it. You may want to consider using a powder for evening wear or special occasions, (I did apply powder to my foundation on my wedding day) but for daytime wear, I prefer to look a little more natural and less made-up, (especially in the summertime when you don't want to wear alot of heavy make-up - at least I don't) but that's just me. Hope this helps.
no! if your applying both it means you need to change foundation something that last longer
What Caroline said is EXACTLY true! Since a liquid foundation is wet, the LOOSE powder sets the liquid so it stays all day. A compact powder is for touchups IF you get shiny during the day. I apply makeup for weddings so I know how to make the makeup last. HTH.
i have learned if you put on powder after foundation then it will not stay on as long as it would without it!!!!
It is not necessary, but it helps give that smooth look.

Try using a cream to powder foundation. This way you get two in one, without spending double.

Is johnson's baby powder (original) safe for the face?

I don't wear makeups that's why im only using johnson's baby powder to look natural.. does anyone know some alternatives that i can use and it will not dry my face?

Thanks..Is johnson's baby powder (original) safe for the face?

i love it

Don't use anything with talc on your face, it will likely cause breakouts. Find a face powder at the store without talc in it. You can find one for under $10 at any drugstore.
it's safe. An alternative you can use is petrolium jelly. u can dab a little on your eye lids, cheeks and lips. I love it
It should be
if i were u i wouldnt even use that stuff because the company tests their product on animals!!!

Can I still wear makeup (powder) on my face even though I am under dermatologist care?

Im undergoing treatment for my acne scars and small sores I have, I put on medicine in the morning and in the evening, after the medicine dries would it be okay to put on makeup ( concealer/powder)?

I was considering Physicians Formula since I do have sensitive skin.

Thanks in advance :)Can I still wear makeup (powder) on my face even though I am under dermatologist care?
Well, i think you'd have to ask your dermatologist, but if you're allowed, I wouldn't reccomend Physician's formula. I like Loreal bare naturale mineral makeup (foundation, concealer, and transluscent powder). It gives alot of coverage and still lets my skin breathe. I'm very acne prone and it's the only makeup that doesn't break me out.

I think it'd be ok for you to wear makeup bc your medicine is working underneath.

Hope this helps!Can I still wear makeup (powder) on my face even though I am under dermatologist care?
I use Physicians Formula and love it, but I would suggest that you ask your dermatologist to make sure.
Well, i think you'd have to ask your dermatologist but i would use a little bit and make sure u wash it off

YES.........clinique is good too......they will take care of ya......Get a good oil free hydrator to stop the dryness....like moisture surge extra...

when I worked at Clinique I would get derm recomendations for that all the time......remember OIL FREE......plus the make up is excellent along with their expert adviceCan I still wear makeup (powder) on my face even though I am under dermatologist care?
That would be a question for your dermatologist. He/she is the best person to give you advice since he should know what would irritate your skin.

Personally, I would not put anything on my face until I talked to the doctor is treating me.
Yea, both concealer and powder are non clogging, so you should be fine :)

Whats a good makeup powder that will cover the whole face and doesnt have glitter and is NOT a foundation?

Why not a foundation? Most mineral powders are pretty sheer. You can try Everyday Minerals start-to-finish and sheer face powders. (Their foundations are also good and you get free samples off their webpage look under custom kits).Whats a good makeup powder that will cover the whole face and doesnt have glitter and is NOT a foundation?
Bare Minerals because its very light and fells like theres nothing on your skin. Its kinda expensive though. It really works well though.

L' OREAL True Match is also well. Its not nearly as expensive and you can get it almost everywhere. It can be very light or very heavy. When its on light, it will cover most blemishes but its light enough to see freckles. If its heavy, it will cover almost everything. You should also use L'OREAL True Match Blush. Thats also very nice. Whats a good makeup powder that will cover the whole face and doesnt have glitter and is NOT a foundation?
Mac make up has a line that is designed to be worn for T.V. (if you wear glitter under studio lights, it glows). You may have to buy it on line, go to the retail and get the artist to select your skin tones in the STUDIO FIX, and then use that to select your colors on line.
bare minerals, sheer and healthy and doesn't clog up your pores and mask your face with a greasy fake-tan film...

invest in bare minerals, its so wonderful you can SLEEP in the powder :D
Mary Kay mineral powder? That is what I use anyhow.

I see indian people putting on turmeric powder on their body and face. why?

is it a good for a skin, what is the reason behind it. mostly indians answers are prefered. thank youI see indian people putting on turmeric powder on their body and face. why?
Turmeric poweder is a herb which basically makes your skin glow and even, and can fight off blemishes. This is usually done before the wedding so the bride's skin will look smooth the next day.

It also reduces risks of strech marks during pregnancyI see indian people putting on turmeric powder on their body and face. why?
Just gunna take a guess, but it could be for some religious thing.

Seems kinda like it could be.

But it may be healthy or something, I don't really know.

What is the diff. between pressed and loose face powder?

I have an oily t-zone, so I need powder- especially in the summer. I like translucent because I don't want the powder to add any color to my face, they are always too light or too dark. I also want a fairly natural look- I hear that pressed powder is more for shine and loose is more for a smooth finish? But loose is also SO messy, I find it so much easier to carry pressed powder and not have to deal with carrying a seperate brush and powder falling everywhere. Any advice on brands that are good? Thanks in advance!What is the diff. between pressed and loose face powder?
Sephora Brand Matifying Compact Powder, is good and inexpensive too. You can read lots of reviews on their site about it.

I need help chosing the right colour of face powder ?

I am wanting to perches a mac face powder, i am ordering from as my nearest mac is 2 hours away so i cant try on the colour and get matched up, so i need help from someone who maybe has this particular powder and is the same colour or is a make up artist.

Will powder work on my acned face?

I know my color and all that jazz, but will it really cover my acne? (It's not real bad, just a few here and there. But close up, it looks horrible!)

Also, what words do I have to look for to make sure it doesn't worsen acne?Will powder work on my acned face?
try the bare minerals by id. it is a wonderful powder that covers up everything! you don't even need any foundation with it. it is also all natural powder that shouldn't cause more acne.Will powder work on my acned face?
Trust me, it will look worse and sort of cakey with powder. Just leave it alone and try not to use makeup on it. You should work on getting your skin clear by maybe seeing a dermatologist...that should do the trick.

Non-comogodenic or something means 'doesn't clog pores' in terms of skin creme and skin products
Powder will lessen the appearance of acne but it will not make it better. When buying/using makeup products, look for the words 'oil free.'
never do that or it will get worse
apply aloe vera moisturizer before u put on make up, it cools ur skin and good for sensitive skin..
I have acne problems, and this is what I found works. Look for oil-free on the container of the makeup. Also look for labels that say that it won't irritate skin. I use bareminerals makeup, and I really recommend it, especially for acne-prone skin.
have you heard of bare minerals makeup? it actually clears up your skin. its a little expensive but very worth it. and it doesnt leave the cakey look either!

Is there something that works like face powder, that will stay on?

I'm a little inexperienced with makeup, but I've used Cover Girl face powder since I was in middle school.

I'm starting to be a lot more physically active because of my career, and I find myself sweating a bit more. Even when I don't sweat, the outdoor environment just seems to blow the powder right off. I don't have any opportunity to re-apply it for nearly six-eight hours, and my face is just VERY SHINY. It's really embarrassing, and it ruins my entire look to see my shiny, greasy-looking face after just an hour of wear.

Also, it isn't my hygienic habits or anything like that. I DO wash my face, with products especially for oily skin.

I just need something else that will take away the shine, even my facial skin tone, and LAST for more than an hour or two.

Any help? :(Is there something that works like face powder, that will stay on?
If your skin is on the paler side, corn starch works great.Is there something that works like face powder, that will stay on?
Mineral powder foundation. Mary Kay has a good one. Plus, it isn't bad to carry a small powder compact with you during the day so you can do a little pat every now and then. But I have found the mineral foundation is great-you should try it!
Use mineral veil by bare Essentials!

You can even work out or sleep in it, it tends to stay on and give you a air brushed look to your skin!
I'm pretty inexperienced with make-up too, but I really like my MAC Studio Fix powder foundation. It's a very quick application and I don't normally have trouble keeping it on unless it's extremely humid. It has a matte finish, so it'll take longer for oil to show through. It your face does start to get oily, just take out the compact and dab it really fast with the little cushion they put in the separate compartment of the case. MAC comes in TONS of colors, which is nice for retouches. You don't have to completely redo the face for fear of color variations.

What is the BEST [All-Over Face] Powder Brush?

I'm just trying to figure out (from experienced users) what is the best finishing powder brush that you have or have used.

{As well as the ones that people should stay away from.}

Ex. A brush that is dense, soft, rarely sheds (ugh!), has a decent handle that will ensure good control, picks up JUST enough product to give a very even-finished-and flawless face/coverage.

I would prefer brushes that aren't TOO cheap and not TOO TOO expensive...but reasonable :-) But, if there is a brush that is incredibly inexpensive yet it stands up to even the most expensive brand name brushes, then that'll be cool too.

I know this is a pretty random question but I just don't want to waste any money [hate trial/error shopping]. So I'd rather ask others for their experiences w/ the best and worst finishing powder brush.

Thanks in advance ;-)

I LOVE LOVE my brush set from Sephora. They aren't cheap, but they are good. Also, I bough a small, EcoTools Bamboo brand,eye shadow brush at Walgreens that is really nice. I don't know if the larger brushes, but the small one doesn't shed at all.

I purchased Mark brushes from Avon once and hated them.

Okay, I have very oily skin, it sucks... so I know I can't find a product will keep my shine at bay all day, but I still would like something that will work for a few hours... so anyone have any pressed powders that they love and i can get at walmart or cvs type of places? thanks! =)I'm looking for a good face powder for my skin...?

This is so hard to answer as no one here knows what your skin looks like. The best thing to do would be to test them in the store, if you are able to. Otherwise, hold it up to your face in the mirror and see how close you can match it. I think the rule of thumb is to go a shade lighter. Also, your foundation plays a rold in how your powder looks. I stick with the same brand in both becuase you can get tones that are close together. If you do end up buying a shade that is maybe a little too dark, you can even it out by mixing it with a lighter shade or even a little baby powder.Which Physicians Formula Talc-Free Mineral Face Powder color work for me?
I couldnt help but read your post and think to myself that I was right where you were 6 months and seems like 1000 wrinkles ago.

I went through the exact same thing. I tried various products and did tons of research online before I found Oil of Olay was basically giving their product away for free.

All I had to do was answer a few auestions, They are a well known national name brand for facial and skin care, everyone knows Oil of Olay.

And I am telling you this Oil of Olay Regenerist works and it made a believer out of me.

I posted the link below for you to click and check out. This stuff works and believe me - for a few minutes of your time and no cost to you, you owe it to yourself to try and all you would lose is a few minutes of your time!

N.Y.C. Smooth Skin Pressed Face Powder?

Should i wear bronze powder on my face if i have fair skin?

well it's fair but there's a pink undertone to it also. '

if so, which one??Should i wear bronze powder on my face if i have fair skin?
Bronzer looks great on almost anybody. I too have very pale skin with a pink undertone. I suggest CoverGirl TRUblend Microminerals Bronzer. It blends flawlessly and naturally with your skin but looks fantastic. Here is a link: http://www.covergirl.com/products/produc鈥?/a>Should i wear bronze powder on my face if i have fair skin?
haaaai,

ofcourse you can wear bronzer, just make sure it isn't too dark and is the right colour for you.

Also, try not too apply too much, that's what many people get wrong with bronzer! You don't want to look overdone.

Try a cooler, lighter tone, this will look nice and natural on fair skin.

The trouble is with bronzer is that it can stick and set quite easily to your face before you have finished applying it to your desired areas, so be careful with that! Try to use a brush.

Good luck! Hope i helped. :)
Just make sureyou blend it with your neck, and don't use too much. Use a proper bronzing brush as well, the huuuge one i mean. It spreads it out more evenly. I use Rimmel Sunkissed bronzer, there's only two shades and i use the lighter one because i have fair skin.
u sounds like u have the same skin type as me...=) I think u should google Dinair Airbrush Makeup and get their shade alabaster...it would be prefect for ur coloring...i then use a shade call bronze 2 as my bronzer..i have been using their makeup for years and i LOVE it...its makes my skin look flawless and it stays on all day...its also all water based so its not bad for ur skin...hope i helped in some way...=)
If you want to wear a bronze powder, just go with a light one, you wouldn't want a dark one...it might look weird, especially if you have fair skin. good luuck!

Since you have oily skin, you might want to try a foundation that mattifies your face. Maybelline's Dream Matte Foundation will make your face not look oily and it makes your skin feel soft. It comes in a liquid foundation, a powder and a mousse.

Mineral foundations are good too, but i'm not sure it makes your skin look better. And they are messy because they come in loose powders. Bare Escentuals is good, but it's pricy. Covergirls Trublend is pretty good.I need a new decent Face powder?

In winter I find that on using face powder face has become like a joker. Any suggestion?

use somthing one step darjer hen your skin

use bronzer or blush for a natural glow.

remember...blushes go under the cheek...not ON the cheekIn winter I find that on using face powder face has become like a joker. Any suggestion?
No matter what skin type you have in warmer seasons, winter skin care is all about care . This means putting aside those oil-stripping toners, mattifying gels, face washes with scrubbing particles and face powder. In winter, you have to be mindful and adapt your skin care regimen accordingly.

First of all, in winter your skin needs moisture to keep it supple and healthy. Humectants (to attract and retain moisture) and emollients (for a smoothing and softening effect) are essential, the more the better.

Matt finish foundation is better for winters.

Tinted powder with a slight shimmer is great for winters.

Dust a bronzing powder over your forehead, nose, and cheekbones after you've put on your foundation and blush.In winter I find that on using face powder face has become like a joker. Any suggestion?
Maybe you just need a lighter shade, because you no longer have the tan you had so go for a lighter shade. You should have a winter and summer shade. It makes a difference. And remember to moisturize before applying powder.
....and reduce harsh lines. Lip liner is out. Blend a brush-on eyebrow powder rather than pencil, or smudge the pencil. Keep with natural colors, lighten the lip color, reduce the eyeliner.

Best of luck to you. Peace.

Have you ever tried this face powder? Is it for old people?

Coty airspun face powder. I have read sooo many positive reviews on it, and a lot of people mentioned that it doesn't make them break out, even though it is made with very un-natural ingredients, like talc and everything else.....I'm confused, even mineral makeup (although i bought it at cvs, bad idea, but still..) made me break out, or made my pimples worse (i don't use it now) , so i really don't get it, is it really that good??? if you tried it , tell me what you think about it, i'm 18 btw and have some acne marks on my forehead, and some occasional breakouts.

I use it and i like it alot.

I'm fifteen.

It's been around for like forever and it seems pretty good.

I think its a good light face powder that can even out your skin tone and help hide the a little acne.

I have pretty sensitive skin and it doesn't bother me.

Just so you know I don't wear it every day. Just every so often because I only get pimples once in a while.

It doesn't look cakey and blends in pretty well. But it does have like small pieces of glitter in it and it may make your skin look luminous. So i wouldn't really recommend it for shine control.

sorry if that was really long. but i hope it helps :)Have you ever tried this face powder? Is it for old people?
Never Seen It Before !

Please tell me the difference between loose powder talcum powder and face powder.?

Talcum powder is a white loose substance used all over your body, mostly after a bath or shower, to reduce moisture. Face powder and loose powder are used for the same purpose in addition to evening out your skin tone, but on your face only. One is supplied as a loose, finely ground substance, the other as a formed product in a hard compact.Please tell me the difference between loose powder talcum powder and face powder.?
fragrance.....and quality of the grind..face powder is a finer grind.Please tell me the difference between loose powder talcum powder and face powder.?
Talc is generally for the body - to reduce moisture and friction and leave a fragrance. Face powder creates a matte finish, creates a nice canvas to apply cheek color and reduces shine. It also may have color, which talc doesn't.
loose powder,usually talcum is used on you r body and face powder is usually in a compact or loose in a brush applicator

How to make your face powder stay on all day (i.e. have non-shiney skin)?

My powder lasts like an hour before my face is oily looking/shiney again! I've tried lots of different kinds but I always have the same problem. Is there a trick? And believe it or not I actually have dry skin in the winter in some areas but I only rub a dab of lotion in (where I put lotion doesn not matter with shine-where I do put it looks the same as where I don't apply lotion)How to make your face powder stay on all day (i.e. have non-shiney skin)?
It really depends on amount of oil your skin produce. There is no really magic powder for it. Here what you can do : get any skin absorbing cloths ( clean %26amp; clear sells them) , or try Mineral Veil by Bare minerals, I use it every time after I allpy fondation powder. It makes my make up stay much longer. Oh, and also switch to powder fondations ! You will have less shine for sure!!! Liquid fondations are very oily .

I usually put a make-up base on or primer - I use a no7 one, but I think mac do one as well - that helps keep skin matte.

I also use facial blotting tissues from the body shop throughout the day - you use them on your face to absorb excess oil. They work like a charm! I highly recommend them.
Lotion sounds like it would create the shinyest finish so I would say avoid it! A good trick is to carry blot sheets in your purse. I use a face primer and then a moisturiser then apply my foundation and then my powder! I usually do not have to retouch until midday I use bare naturale by Loreal right now and I love it I have oily skin also! I have also heard that actually dabbing a little milk of magnesea to the face controls the oil in your face! Do remember to wash your face twice a day - day when you wake and night removing makeup. good luck!
i use clinique lotion as a primer

I'm looking for a good face powder for an oily face...?

I've used clinique... i think its actually making me break out! and i've used neutrogena and cover girl.... is there ANYTHING out there will will work? i'm tired of having a shinny face 2 hours after i put on my face powder... its not like i can go and reapply it all the time, i can cant whip out my mirror at work! lol i'll try anything! so... anyone have a good brand they like? =)I'm looking for a good face powder for an oily face...?
I use a powder from urban decay. It works really well. It is a translucent de slick powder. It works much better than the oil blotting sheets. I'm looking for a good face powder for an oily face...?
Try Mary Kay. I used to use MK but I got the same results with CG Shades of You so I switched.
Try www.yourplatinumbeauty.com

Micro-Fine loose powder (oil-free)
MAC Studio Fix. It's UNBELIEVABLE. Fantastic!!! And can be used on its own without foundation and still looks great. It's pricey but lasts ages and is definitely the most important makeup item I have.
I would suggest trying a powder from Almay. Most of their products for oily skin types contain salicylic acid (an exfoliating, and a little bit of a drying agent used in skin care.) I would also suggest using loose powder because that will soak up most of the oil.

Almay products can be found at Walmart.

Hope this helps. :)

Good luck!
well, im not too sure about a powder, but...

there are blotting papers sold at any drug store.

you rub them on your face and they remove oil without changing the state of your makeup

several brands make them.
baby powder or fine cornflour seived and dusted on lightly

What is your favorite face POWDER and why ?? 10pts?

that long lasting,,,not cakey when you put it on

and affordable

im willing to pay about $15 or under for each

and i can find them in cvs ,walmart or ulta

not walgreens and rite aid cause here we dont have that store close to my house

thanksssssssWhat is your favorite face POWDER and why ?? 10pts?
trublend by covergirl. i use the trublend mouse and loose powder and they both do a really good job at covering unwanted marks on your face (birthmark, freckles) you can find it at any drug store walmart and cvs. also it is around $8 i find it to be very natural looking on my face.

good luckWhat is your favorite face POWDER and why ?? 10pts?
well i only use pressed powder i never tried loose yet

but i'm planning on buying the covergirl one :]

i lovee cover girl and i have seen good reviews on

Cover Girl Professional Loose Powder

http://cn1.kaboodle.com/hi/img/2/0/0/c8/鈥?/a>
I use Cover Girl pressed - easy to find and does the job

I also like Physician's Formula Magic Mosaic because you can customize your own shade - it's pricier, though - about $10.
I use Neutrogena's SkinClearing Pressed Powder. It's like $10, available at Wal-mart, helps camoflouage my acne, and contains salcyclic acid to help prevent future breakouts.
Try the proactiv loose powder. You can have it delivered to your house. If not try bare minerals that they sell at Walmart.
cover girl is the best i do beleive...

it doesn't leave blotchs on your face or smear,

and it doesn't have a strong scent.
mac...

i love it because its light stays on and looks greatt
Bare Essentials for sure!

i love that stuff cant live without it

but it might be more then 15.
Ohhh Bare Escentuals for sure! :D I love that stuff!
covergirl...it's cheap and it doesn't screw up my skin

which one should i choose? has anyone tried any of them? please don't suggest others, i'm in between these two.

oh, and does anyone know which brand's foundation is better, and which kind? I'm kind of iffy between the mineral wear powder from physician's formula and DHC liquid foundation, or the Q10 moist color base one, which is lighter.Which one? Physicians Formula Powder, or DHC Q10 face powder?
DHC Q10 products are excellent!! I have bee using them and a lot of people say I look much younger than my actual age (I'm in early 30's, have 3 kids and people say I look 10 years younger). I have never used their liquid foundation but I've been using Q10 cream foundation. I love it!! Even though it is cream it is not too heavy but I can get the coverage I want.

Liquid foundation should be lighter than cream and Q10 moist color base is just a foundation base so I would say color base is lighter than liquid foundation.

I have tried sooo many products including very expensive brand from department stores but DHC suits me perfectly!!Which one? Physicians Formula Powder, or DHC Q10 face powder?
i think the better choice would be physicians formula.

this is the only powder i will use and ive never regretted using it. its like maaagic!!

the foundation is great too.
Use the physician formula!! The best stuff out there!!

How's the face powder from clinique?

Since summer's coming up, i'm thinkin about getting the clinique ';blended face powder and brush';. I've got type 3 face (combo - oily and dry) and so far the clinique products I've been using has worked great. I've never had acne before in high school but started getting it around 2 yrs ago...it's getting better (on antibiotics and cream) and I've been using the clinique superbalanced makeup foundation as well. Lately I've noticed that using foundation in hot weather has been making make face oily = breakouts.

Do you guys reccommend using this?

Oh and i've used bare minerals and it didn't work well w. my skinHow's the face powder from clinique?
I have type 3 skin, and I just started using Clinique's powder foundation about a month ago. I use ';Perfectly Real Compact Makeup.'; It is the first foundation I have ever loved!! It's actually for our skin type, and I haven't had any breakouts since I started using it. Would highly recommend!!How's the face powder from clinique?
i got the bronzer once and i loved it! I love the brush too.. Its so soft i still have it. I would use it still but I am faithful to MAC and bare minerals hahah
i USE THE STAY MATTE SHEER PRESSED POWDER OIL FREE AND I ABOLUTELY LOVE IT=D I aslo wear the work-out foundation from Clinique and Yes, it stays on while you work out and doesn't clog your pores. luv it....

What kind of face powder is best, brand and quality wise?

I want to get one of those face powder foundations, if you know what I mean.

Not the mineral kinds, like this: http://uma.chanel.com/-makeup-face-powder-poudre-douce-soft-pressed-powder-/product/MAFMU55C

Except, within reasonable price.. [meaning like 10 bucks ahahah ;]

I was wondering if you guys had any good powders you like?

And what brand is it?

I was thinking I could just go to like a drug store or something and buy a Cover Girl one, is that good?

Thanks :]What kind of face powder is best, brand and quality wise?
I use American Beauty's super plus powder foundation and I absolutely love it. It cost me sixteen dollars at Kohl's-which is usually where I purchase make-up essentials-but it was certainly worth the money in my opinion. I purchased it almost two months ago and upon looking at it, you can hardly tell it's been used.

It covers very well and feels soft and smooth on the skin. If you go to Kohl's you can test the products and see for yourself. They may even give you samples. :)

Kohl's also carries a brand called FLIRT! which also has worked well for me.What kind of face powder is best, brand and quality wise?
As a professional makeup aritst for over 20 years I have worked with Chanel,Dior and MAC products and I still have a much higher opinion of the brand BEE LUSCIOUS COSMETICS!

I recommend checkingout their site I would recommend their mineral pressed powder with SPF8 also their Colour Tides mineral finishing powders.

Here are a few reviews you can also look at.

if you are going to buy make-up buy quality make-up, don't waste your money with drugstore make-up that might look bad,not work well or not match. And you said no bare minerals but really, it is amazing you should really try it. As for pressed powder MAC has a really good one.
You can use those if you like...Depends on your skin and what brands might effect it. I can't use cover-girl, but I can use maybelline.

I usually buy Clinque you might pay 5 bucks more but it lasts long when you where it and doesn't clog your pores.
I use clinique :)

it's about 18 dlls but it lasts longer on your skin :)

if you are young(15-23) clinique is better for your skin;)

but if your like 25+ you can use either clinique or MAC

What's the best face powder for a tanned Asian face?

I have the hardest time finding a powder that matches my skin tone! It might just be me, maybe I haven't tried enough, but I have ASIAN skin that's been tanned by sports. It's not dark though, I'd say about medium. Has anyone tried any brand that they particularly like? I was thinking Physicians Formula Face Aid Skin Controlling Face Powder Translucent, but I wasn't sure if the translucent would be white on my face. Physicians Formula Magic Mosaic Multi-Colored Custom Pressed Powder, Beige/Warm Beige seems good too. Sally Hansen Healing Beauty Line Smoothing Mineral Powder Pink Glow and Maybelline Mineral Power Finishing Veil Translucent Loose Powder Translucent are two others that I've looked at.

Has anyone tried any of these or has any suggestions on what I should buy? Anything that won't sit on my face and scream ';POWDER HERE';, something that'll blend right in. Will translucent look white or actually invisible?

Also, I'd appreciate suggestions that were something I can buy at a local drugstore like Walgreens for convenience.

Thanks!!What's the best face powder for a tanned Asian face?

How can I get rid of oil on my face esp. the nose? I seem to powder every thirty minutes.?

wash with soap and water frequentlyHow can I get rid of oil on my face esp. the nose? I seem to powder every thirty minutes.?
How sad, that is just going to make your face produce more oil. Report Abuse
How can I get rid of oil on my face esp. the nose? I seem to powder every thirty minutes.?
CALL HALLIBURTON..
I have the same problem. Those oil blotting sheets really don't work. Also if you wash your face too often it damages your skin. I was with Avon Cleansing cloths in the morning and evening, and use Sea Breese astringent twice a day. That seems to help a little. St. Ives Apricot Scrub for oily skin workd well too and it's not expensive at all.
Washing your face too often can actually cause your skin to produce more oil. Washing your face strips it of its natural moisture, so in order to compensate, it produces more oil. Don't wash your face more than twice a day (I've read that you should wash it only once a day, but I don't see how that's possible if you wear makeup), and after you wash, use a gentle moisturizer.

Also, try using blotting paper on your face during the day. It's basically a thin sheet of paper (almost like tissue paper) and you use to blot the oil off of your face. Some drugstores carry them, but I actually get mine from Japanese grocery stores.
I have super oily skin too, but oil-blotting sheets seem to do the trick. My favorite is Clinique's, but I think I've seen some at Victoria's Secret towards the check-out. Oh, and I think Clean %26amp; Clear has a product too. My friend has even oilier skin though, and she says tissue paper works just as well or even better on her skin ( it ruins her make-up though.) Guess it depends.
wash your face every night and day and it will cut down your oil problem
you try to get hold of this '; oil control film'; by biore or clean%26amp;clear.. its a blue film thingy that they sold in a small pack in supermarket or pharmacy. it's not that expensive... usually the package also in blue colour.

it's really good. try it. it won't smudge your make up off. just removing the oil on your face.

have a nice day!
Best and natural way is wash with a mild soap as for as possible. You can also wipe with a cloth / hand kerchief. Powder is also OK but with very small coatings. I am also having his problem.

But there is a good news I want to share with you. Oily face looks young and have good skin texture.
Get those oil-absorbing sheets from Neutrogena. They work SOOO WELL! I swear by them! Atleast for my face!
This may sound gross, but do not wash your face with soap or anything. When you take your shower everyday, just let cool water run on your face for like 30 seconds. In a few days you will notice a major change. But you have to remember not to wash your face. I had the same problem and I started doing this last week and it completely worked.

By washing your face, you lose the natural oils on your face that are supposed to be there and then you over-stimulate the oil glands which makes them produce more oil. So the more you try to get rid of it, the oiler its going to get. Trust me, just try it. What do you have to lose? :)
the best way is to wash your face... and two things to remember first start it with warm water and ends it with cold water.. making your face excretes and secretes dirt and oils properly.. try it for a week and see the results..
Try facial blotters paper from the Drug store or do what Sarah Jessica Parker , ';Sex in the City'; star, does use the paper toilet seat covers very cheap and very effective.

Don't powder too much, may clog your pores and aggravate the oil problem

Best face powder brush? (I use bare minerals)?

Hi!..

I use bare minerals foundation to cover my face redness/acne and I was wonder what powder brush is best. I use some crappy $8 synthetic one from the makeup brand Flirt! and I heard that the best ones are made of real hair and are like $50.

I'm cheap. But reasonable. If powder brushes really work a whole lot better than I'm willing to pay more but not outrageously so.

So whats a good brush?

(I want answers from people who are experienced with this sort of thing)Best face powder brush? (I use bare minerals)?
bobbi brown do nice brushes they are expensive about 拢30 for foundation brush but last for yearsBest face powder brush? (I use bare minerals)?
good powder brushes shouldn't cost $50. Smashbox has an amazing one for around $30. It's very soft, made of real fibers, and is PETA friendly.
I usually end up beginning cheap and using tons products. Do what seems right and Im pretty sure your instinct will be correct. I like http://BrandsMakeup.com

If I apply powder on my face before I sleep, will it reduce my acne?

chili powder... ;-p that's not very funny...

no,,, you will clog your pours and make things worse...If I apply powder on my face before I sleep, will it reduce my acne?
No it will make it a hell of a lot worse - believe me !! your skin needs to breath during the night. You need to have a regime on keeping the skin extra dry and clean. Usually acne is associated with greasy skin, often found on the forehead down the nose and onto the chin, that is why they call that the T area.

So now I have shown myself to be a little clever clogs, shall I continue ?

Yes Please !! OK then, acne is often caused by the food you eat, the greasier the food the greasier the skin, plus as you know, its because the pores on the face are open hence dirt and grime gets in. So its a cleansing regime that you need, along with some cream specifically for acne which you should get from your doctor - you don't have to suffer in vain, you can help acne these days greatly.

Night time Regime

Use an astringent (bought from a chemist or pharmacy), which opens the pors more.

Cleanse the face with a baby lotion - away with soap on the face for a start, that just cloggs up pores worse.

Rinse your face in tepid clear water and then apply the medical acne cream just on the areas of where the acne is.

Next morning, use a baby lotion just on the same area, because what the acne cream does is it dries the spot area out - and you then might suffer from dry patches and plus it could scar the area of where the acne spot was , so you need to then moisturize that area again.

Don't wear skin makeup during the day - only use it rarely like when your going out somewhere special.

All this will pass, you won't be like it forever, though right now I bet you feel that you will.

If all this is getting you down, try not to worry, change your hair style, change your style of clothes, this will build your confidence back in yourself, and remember what we see about ourselves that we don't like, we see it in a magnified way - but others do not. Its more in our minds, others don't notice these things as much as we think. Hence changing other things about yourself or getting a new outfit, will automatically make you feel better about yourself.

Good Luck and leave the fast foods alone, eat lots of fruit, and drink plenty of water, they really do help honest.If I apply powder on my face before I sleep, will it reduce my acne?
No, that will make it worse. If you are having acne on the surface, like the kind that has tiny little pus heads, then washing your face with Ivory soap, letting it dry, then applying Oxy 10 should help clear it up in a few weeks. Wear a light moisturizer during the day, clean and clear makes some good ones. But, if you have deep painful pimples, you need antibiotics, like Tetracycline. It is relatively cheap, and you can usually get it from you family doc. I used to have to take it when I was a teenager. If your acne is bad, get your parents to take you to a dermatologist, I eventually had to do that. I don't have any acne scars because I took care of it as soon as I could. Get this taken care of, because deep acne scars can ruin someone's appearance for life.
No it can clog your pores and make your situation worse.You should wash your face properly and keep your pores open and clean all day and night.
No dude just wash it good every night and apply a acne cream on your trouble spots the main thing is to unclog the pores that is what causes acne

curtdude
no, just wash your face before you go to bed, its the best thing you can do.
Just wash your face with face soap before you go to bed. Wash your face 3 times a day.
yes, but only if it's chili powder.
No, what is powder going to do?

you need the right powder!

thank you in advance :]

xxoxoxox

Tay :]MAC face powder??answer please :]?
I use MAC studio fix, and it has never turned my face yellow. the studio fix is better because it can hide any blemishes or dark circles and such. then i also have the Blot Powder to use during the day, because if you re-apply the studio fix it will start looking like its caked on your face. so the Blot powder kind of re-applies coverage but doesn't add oil..(they'll probably tell all of that to you when you go).

just make sure they match you perfectly and if you tan easy over the summer or like to tan, then tell them so theyll give you a shade in between or darker!

hope that helpsMAC face powder??answer please :]?
Hmm, intresting. I always wanted to try Bare Minerals, but I heard it wasn't all that. Anyway, I use M.A.C Studio Fix Powder Plus Foundation and I really like it. I'm more of a darker skin(NW45)but I didn't notice any yellowishness. Or any other colors. You should try that. It makes it smoothe like ahh.
MAC makes good makeup and I have never had a problem with their shades. You were probably irritated by the bismuth oxychloride in the Bare Minerals. If you want a mineral makeup that doesn't have that in it you could try Aromaleigh or Lillian Skincare or one of the other indie brands. That is a pain though b/c you have to mess around with samples since they are only available online. They are worth it imo (I use Aromaleigh) but a bit more work. I just use them b/c my skin is sensitive. If your skin is OK with MAC then go for it lol!
it's good

http://makeupalley.com/product/showrevie鈥?/a>
I personally used MAC cosmetics and it gave me similar results. If I were you I would but another product. Try Luminess Air-it works wonders!
Studio Fix powder is listed under foundation, not powder on the MAC website. I have used MAC for years with no yellowing of my skin. I have fairly pink skin as well.

it actually helps to protect your face from the elements of dust etc.

you do not have to use a foundation. just need to dab on some face powder. if you do not want to do that either, put on sunscreen at the very least.

Face powder for combination type skin?

At the moment i apply my liquid foundation only on the parts of my face that need it (red bits, uneven skin tone etc...)

Then use a dusting of Maxfactor loose powder to give a smooth matte finish.

Unfortunatley the smooth matte finish only last half the day and my nose, forehead, and chin become slightly red and shiny.

Can anyone suggest a powder that will last all day and prevent shine and redness?

The reason im asking for powder is that i dont really need lots of foundation as i only put it on the odd problem area.

I like the feeling of a light powder instead because its not heavy and cakey.

I've just got 2 must's though:

1) i dont want one with shine particals in it that supposedly ';illuminate the skin'; I want it matte.

2) I dont want one thats going to have the reverse effect on my shine prone skin and complately dry it out.

Sorry to be picky!

i'll be glad if anyone can help....

Cheerz!

Merry christmas!Face powder for combination type skin?
i use a mineral powder foundation.

its called Revlon ColorStay庐 Mineral Foundation.

it provides brilliant coverage that lasts, and you can use it on its own or over your usual foundation.

i love it for my skin. also because its mineral, you know that its better for your skin all round.

i have linked it below :)

hope i could help you!Face powder for combination type skin?
I use Rimmel's Matte finished pressed powder and find that lasts awhile on me its got a colour to it (so you have to get one near to your skin tone) but it prevents shine and covers up redness. It hasn't dried up my skin (I have an oily t-zone and dry to normal skin in my cheeks) but I find it can look abit ';caked on'; on dry skin so try using it on your oily parts only.
I have the same problem, dry skin in parts and other parts oily. Bareminerals foundation is really good for this and stays on most of the day, they also do a concealer called Bisque if you only want to use it on the 'problem parts' of your skin. Hope this helps! :)

Hey!

I have combination skin too...so I know what you mean :)

I use ARABESQUE I dont know if you have ever heard of it..My cousin sends it to me from Virginia...but its the only one I have ever tried and absolutely LOVED it feels so great on my skin and it doesnt gimme any acne no matter how long I wear it...(except for at night of course I havent tried that and dont want to either) It is a compact foundation (face powder)

I recently bought WET N WILD compact foundation and I think it works pretty well for the price..

Hope I helped.

Face powder question?

Ok I feel really dumb asking this question but what is the powder called that you put all over your face? I'm not talking about foundation, I mean the stuff that looks a little more natural and not cakey. And when you go to buy some for the first time how do you know what shade to get? Cause I'm afraid I'm going to end up getting the wrong shade. I'm probably just gonna go to like Wal-Mart or Walgreens to get it (if they have some) so there's not going to be a make-up person there to help me pick a shade and I don't want to go out of town somewhere like in a mall to get some. And can you really tell a difference if you use it? I feel dumb asking these questions.

Thx for the help! :]Face powder question?
hey!! im not the best at makeup but im pretty sure its called finishing powder......... at mac there is only one shade because its not really meant blend it only just belnd in the makeup u already have on hope i help :)Face powder question?
It's just known as face powder. You can get loose powder or pressed powder. Also mineral powders, but they are more or less the same thing.

Loose just looks like coloured flour.

Pressed looks like a big eyeshadow pallet.

When you choose a colour, make sure to blend it onto your neck as well. Remember that stores like that have fluorescent lights. They show up every flaw %26amp; make your skin look different. Try on the make up, then go out into more natural light to make your decision on what colour to get. If you choose one under those lights you will most likely end up buying one that is too dark for your skin.

Another product that you might be interested in is facial blotting tissues. They absorb all the oil on your face, taking away the shine %26amp; leaving your skin with a matt finish. It is not make up, but will give you a similar effect.
i think your thinking of translucent powder
Face powder is good starter makeup. Just don't start too soon. In 7th grade, everyone told me I had great skin %26amp; didn't believe I didn't wear makeup. I started wearing it...just the powder...%26amp; my skin has never been the same. It's not bad but it doesn't have that natural glow. My young sisters only use light eyeshadow %26amp; lipgloss %26amp; wax their eyebrows. I think that combo is perfect because they look natural but not out of style, which apparently, the NEED to be.

What is a good foundation/powder to cover up a kind of dry face and really dark undereye cicrles?

please..i hate my undereye circles..everything ive tried sucks or doesnt give enough coverage..and does using the teabags really work??What is a good foundation/powder to cover up a kind of dry face and really dark undereye cicrles?
try clinique..

it works wonders.!What is a good foundation/powder to cover up a kind of dry face and really dark undereye cicrles?
oh i have those too.. i dont like them either. Try Bare Essentials (they also call it bare minerals) from Sephora. its like 25$ for a thing of mineral powder cover up but it lasts a long time... doesn't clog your pores, and you can get the starter kit for 65$ and that comes with 2 shades of cover up... and two brushes. I highly recomend it plus its all natural :P
You can actually get cover up for under your eyes. I use it and it has worked really well. I also find that if you get a foundation that is lighter than your normal shade, that works too because the skin under your eyes is normally lighter than the rest of your skin. Hope that helps!

What's that powder they put on a fighter's face before a match?

Whenever I watch boxing/MMA/combat sports, there's always a trainer or referee who rubs this white, powdery substance on a boxer's face right before the fight starts.

I'd be grateful if you could tell me what it is, and, if possible, why it is used.What's that powder they put on a fighter's face before a match?
they put vaseline on their face to help prevent cuts from punches.What's that powder they put on a fighter's face before a match?
I know it is used to help keep sweat out of their eyes, but I'm not sure if it is talc or something else.

Any good powder for my face?

I use stay matte from Rimmel and it comes of easily and i have to be applying it often and i hate that i have somewhat oily skin. I wanted to know if anybody has any advice on which powder will actually stay on my face. Especially when i sweat....Any good powder for my face?
I really love covergirl, but no powder stays on all day, most people need touch ups, and try using a rice paper blotting sheet inbetween to absorb the oil, i like Pollidos.Any good powder for my face?
i use Bare Minerals from id bare essentials and i love it. this sounds really gross, but it's an amazing thing, the powder actually like sucks up some of the oil in your face. i love this product because i horse back ride and we have to wear make-up in the ring, well let's face it, i am wearing a suit, riding, it's hot, and i need my make-up to stay on really long. well, this product does the trick for me! if you do get it, i suggest that you put one of those big cotton balls in the tops so that when it gets shook a bunch of the powder won't come out. warning: your face might actually break out more when you first start using it, but that is natural with any change to your make-up or other face products, it's just your body's way of saying something has changed!

What s the use f applying lemon juice n sandal wood powder on face?

will t dry out the skin if used daily.What s the use f applying lemon juice n sandal wood powder on face?
I havent heard of a lemon juice powder, and I haven't heard of sandal wood on the face, however lemon juice will fade freckles. I used to put it on my face in the summer for that purpose.What s the use f applying lemon juice n sandal wood powder on face?
I do not know about the sandal wood, sounds a bit sketchy. But lemon juice has been said to lighten the skin if you go in the sun. It will overly acidify the skin and dry it out.
Lemon alkalizes the body - it's one of those acidic things that alkalizes - only a couple of them are out there

Lemon does a lot

Sandalwood does a lot too - major skin treatment, nourishment
...ahh... ooookay....

*looks around nervously*
I've never heard of using either one of those on your face.
hey well... dont put alot of lemon juice.. cause it s a natural bleach.... and epspecially wen u have pimples , lemon jucies triggers it more.. so avoid usin it often.. maybe use it once in a week.... it s avery gud bleachin agent,,, and sandal wood powder.. well it s kinda giver dat cooling effects

Which one will make a girl look more sophisticated: red lip stick, heavy mascara or powdered face?

red lipstick but it depends on the shade of red

powder on your face is not supposed to show up, so it shouldn't make you look more or less sophisticated...it should make you more like you, without oily skin

heavy mascara never looks goodWhich one will make a girl look more sophisticated: red lip stick, heavy mascara or powdered face?
if it has to be one of your choices-then the red lipstick (taken in consideration the attire)

but in reallity,niether.Which one will make a girl look more sophisticated: red lip stick, heavy mascara or powdered face?
mmnhhhhh.....now that sounds like a hooker to me...LMAO!
I'm going to agree. None of the above. Confidence is probably the best bet for a girl who'd like to look sophisticated. A classy wardrobe also might help.
heavy mascara
None of the above.

Try minimal makeup, but a VERY expensive perfume, applied sparingly.
You just described a hooker. Don't try to look sophisticated if it is not your style, or if you are too young to pull it off. Wear natural colors that complement your skin tone and eye color.
i think red lip stick
i dont care for any of that stuff i care about if they are nice and if they love God and a good personality
it's actually her style. I mean the whole package. And how she brings herself
intelligent conversation and self-confidence is a good start
a cock in your mouth
Sophisticated....as in where? At a dinner party or a bowling alley? Red lipstick, heavy mascara and powered face.... sounds like gutterballs to me...
How about a shirt that says ';SOPHISTICATED'; with an arrow pointed at your face? Then there will be no doubt.
definently red lipstick with dark mascara.
Red lip stick - but that's personal preference.
none. stick to lighter makeup %26amp; a fashionable %26amp; not too revealing outfit.
maybe some red lipstick... keep your makeup light
None of the above. Go with an au naturale look. I do it every day, and people still mistake this 16 year old for 18+. If you pack on the make up, people will KNOW you're young an, well, not too sophisticated.

However, if you are in desperate need of cosmetics, I would recommend minimal mascara--not ';heavy';--and a subtle shade of lipstick--you don't need to powder your face.

Good luck looking sophisticated!

Baci
I think the way the girl handles herself will make the biggest impact on whether she's considered sophisticated or not.
It depends on what type of person you are. It depends on your age, hair color, skin tone, educational and social level, etc. All of those might be considered sexy in the ghetto and horrible at a country club.

Use your own eyes to see what looks cool to you.
well i would say red lipstick because im not a ***** and wont call you a whore like some people. But make sure its the right shade for your type of skin.
mascara and a lil (dark or colored)eye shadow...light lips with lil shimmer
I'd say they all would kinda make you look like a hooker....acting sophisticated will get you farther than just trying to look it.
Just a little powder and mascara. Don't over do it honey, this ain't the 20's.
C. none of the ones above.

Try a light red.
None of the above.
Heavy makeup is not sophisticated. That's why they used to call whores ';painted ladies';.
Red Lip Stick
none a clean complexion well grooming %26amp; a nice out fit is all you need happy day
regular amount of mascara, definately--u will have long(or at least noticeable) lashes to bat at all the boys who smile at u!

red lipstick will make u look like u r from the60's--try sum victorias secret lip gloss--it rox!!!!!

powdered face??? Come on!

how old are u anyway--10?

Is there a powder or just something can be brushed on your face to ?

brighten? Like around the eyes and forehead and under the eyes and maybe nose and chin?Is there a powder or just something can be brushed on your face to ?
Yes, it's usually called an illuminating powder. Physician's formula, Ulta, and lots more carry one.Is there a powder or just something can be brushed on your face to ?
there are a number of products that will do this, frequently they are labeled illuminating or lightening.

However these only work well if you are young and haven't developed any wrinkles (and I do mean any). Once you have even small creases the powder will tend to rub itself into them in after an hours worth of wear. In turn that plays up the lines

At that point you will want to get a liquid foundation that is ';smoothing'; to put under the powder. The pigment of these foundations are larger and rounder so they float on the surface of the wrinkles. In turn, liquid foundations often hold the powder better than bare skin, so the powder is less likely to travel and stick in the creases.
Try a powder foundation or blusher. If not then try a product called dream matt mouse in a lighter shade that your skin colour. If you are going with any of these choices then make sure that you use a foundation the same colour of your normal skin tone and gently blend the lighter colour with it
Try Benefit's ';Georgia Peach'; or ';Dandelion';, depending on your complexion.

i really like my bare minerals make-up. it's all in a powder form, and you can get some to help ';highlight'; the areas you want to lighten up. it goes on great and doesn't melt off like a liquid foundation or concealer.
Bare Escentuals has a great powder finisher called Mineral Veil that gives just a nice sheen. I love their products in general. Very easy on the skin and just the right amount of coverage.
Try Bare Mineral products. There more expensive, but work well.
yes...any type of bronzer that says illuminator on it will work. there are powders and liquids.

Face paint powder brushes and glitter?

i wanted to know if there was any other place to get the starblend powders and glitter and smoothie brushes than just silly farm......it is really expensive there and i want to know if anybody knew about it or something....or if you have any tips.

i am also looking for something online that teaches me how to face paint the whole face an not just like a little rainbow on the side or somehting.... thank you so much for your help!!!Face paint powder brushes and glitter?
ldont get that stuff it makes you face oilyFace paint powder brushes and glitter?
You can get brushes at those oriental beauty supply shops at a cheaper price. You can get sponges there, too. I don't know where you are located, but in St. Louis there is a place called Midway Beauty Supply. This is where I get my clown paints and my face painting paints. They have brushes, too, but they are a little more expensive than the oriental shops. Check the party supply places or beauty supply places in your area. Silly Farm can get expensive and shopping around is very necessary. Check youtube.com for face %26amp; body painting tips. They were very helpful to me when I was seeking tips on face painting. The only thing I know about body painting is if you are painting a large area you need an air brush gun. Happy hunting!
i belive in u !!!!!!!

Whats a good face bronzing powder?

I have medium colored skin (beige). I want one with a bit of shimmer. not to dark looking though. I guess one that looks somewhat ';natural'; but still enhances. Preferably one i can buy at Walgreen's or Wal-mart. I am going on a makeup shopping spree. it's been tooo long. Thanks everyone! :))Whats a good face bronzing powder?
wet n wild apaculo glow bronzer. it's $3 and it's the best! they use it on jennifer lopez.Whats a good face bronzing powder?
I like physician formula.
Mary Kay Mineral Powder...its a foundation but at the same time it makes your face glow and look like you have a tan.
I use bare minerals. They have a all over face warmth! Works great!

Best face powder?????????????

to keep oil at bay, that will give a good face coverage and a nice natural maybe even some glow? and that will keep makeup on without having to reapply every hours. and that is clog-free poresBest face powder?????????????
definitely almay nearly naked loose powder. Gives you sheer coverage and im really oily and it covers me for the day and looks super natural.Best face powder?????????????
You should try using a mineral loose powder. There's this powder by maybelline n it's a finishing powder, so it gives you a nice glow and at the same time, it gives you this good finishing look . ^^

If you're planning to use the powder as a finish, then you should use transluscent powder, so that it sets your make-up without adding too much extra colour. But if you're using it as a substitute for foundation, then I suggest you use a regular powder that matches your skin tone. :D

Hope this helps!! xD
Benefit ';Get Even';

It keeps shine off of your face, and it evens out your skin without caking on liquid foundation. It looks natural, and stays on until you sweat it off. I love it. :)
