Rimmel London Stay Matte Pressed Powder Review

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!

Hearing a lot about this, I wasn't disappointed when I finally picked some up. I intentionally bought the translucent shade so that I could apply it as a separate setting powder, or finishing step, over top of my daily coloured powder. I usually just apply it to my T Zone and it's perfect!

Perhaps it was just me, but I found this product to be a little average. Maybe I wasn't using the correct brush, I'm not sure but it went on and boy was it obvious! It settled and flaked in all the drier areas on my face (nose, forehead, corner of lips) and the other areas looked semi-okay but still obvious (not what you want from a product like this). Would probably be a lot better on someone with more oily skin and a decent brush.

I love Rimmel stay matte! I have tried many powders which promise a matte finish but unfortunately fall short from the promise. Rimmel stay matte not only illuminates shine but compliments my skin tone! It's affordable and and found in many Make up department stores! I can not recommend this product enough!!!

I purchased this after seeing many great reviews. It definitely stays Matte! I have found it sets my foundation really well also. I did find that it wore off esp on my nose and chin, which was interesting as my skin is more dry than oily. But for the price it did what it said it was going to do and because its so affordable I would purchase again.

I first heard about this product through my best friend, who said she used it to set her foundation and help keep her face matte throughout the day. After hearing good things about it from her, I went and got myself one to try and it has been my go-to everyday powder! I use the translucent pressed powder and it sets my foundation nicely. It also helps to eliminate some shine on the more oily areas on my face (especially my T-zone), considering I have normal to oily/combination skin and those areas tend to get oily most. As my skin can get quite oily at times, the powder doesn't always keep my face matte, and so I have to end up blotting my face, or re-apply the powder back on. However, at the price you pay for this, I would definitely recommend it!

I love 99% of Rimmel products but this has to be my all time favorite ! I own this stay matte powder in translucent as i find it better than a 'coloured' powder. Not only is it amazing on my face but it actually smells so freaking good ! I use the match perfection foundation and as it is quite a dewy finished foundation i like to use this powder on top to make my face quite matte and it does just that ! It lasts all day, doesn't go patchy or anything like that. I will be buying this powder again, and again and again, i love it that much !

The casing is simple and clean, you can easily see the product and how much you have left. The price is very good for the amount of product you get, and it lasts very well. I have been using mine for about 6 weeks now and it barely looks used.

I dont like my make-up to look heavy, I love the flawless 'no-make-up' look and this product is great for that.

I use the shade 001 Transparent and it is perfect for wearing on top of my foundation and/or concealers to take away any shine or excess 'greasiness' so when I put on blush and eye shadows I have a solid base that lasts all day.

I use my Rommel stay matte over my Mac mineral skin finish when I feel like a change. I love the product but it can sometimes leave my face with an uneven matte effect. Yes its on the title, but I'll only use a small amount and it will look like cake! But this is only sometimes and depends on the brush I use, overall a good product for controlling the shine in my tzone and does exactly what it says.

This powder is really good at keeping my oily face matte! I use it everyday for work, in the transparent shade. It is good as it doesn't change the colour of my foundation and it helps to keep my foundation on my face a lot longer than some other powders I have tried that are around the same price point. I do have to touch up my powder at lunch time though, but the price makes up for that!
