Amazing product for the price!

I bought this to alternate with my MAC powder, this is an amazing product for the price, it keeps my face matte, and sets my makeup really well. They have a great range of shades, and ASOS often have them on sale too. Its smoothes into my skin well, and does not leave my face looking powdery or chalky.

Good quality at a good price

This is a great setting powder that lasts pretty well and does the job at keeping the shine at bay. One thing I don't like too much is the colour selection. They are almost too tinted and therefore I found it hard to get a colour that matched my skin.. it would be better if they had a proper transluscent one. The packaging is terrible, the lid broke for me after a few weeks and now just falls off :P All in all, a good powder though.

I really like this

this product has grown on me a lot. I use a stippling brush to apply this and i get a lovely light coverage to set my foundation. it doesn't stay all day and 1-2 touch ups may be needed. But for the price it is reliable and I love it.

Pressed powder

This is the first pressed powder I have used, and am really enjoying it. It seems to control the shine really well considering the price. I have been using a kabuki brush with it which seems to pick up a lot of product so need to apply sparingly. I was disappointed with the lid as it does not stay on, so I can't take it in my handbag.

Does what it says it will

Another Rimmel beauty bag fav. I use rimmel's fix and perfect primer and then a bb cream with a small amount of this on my t zone (mostly) and it gives me great all day wear. No complaints at all.

Tips: If you use asos, you can pick up Rimmel products for a really good price.

does what it says

I have combination skin. Winter it is dry. Summer it can be oily especially in my t zone and sides of my nose. When my skin is in a dry phase. This is no good. As you would expect any powder on dry skin will usually makes matters worse. But that is not a fault of this product. Just common sense I guess. But when I have an oily/shiny day this works pretty well to contain the shine and keep my makeup in place. I find I want to touch up once or twice a day and since the lid isn't that great at staying on. I am not keen on keeping it in my bag. So that would be my only issue with it. I find it easy to control the amount of powder I apply. Easy to give a light dust to problem area's or I can build it up for a heavier cover if needed.

Tips: No good if you have dry skin.

Perfect for my skin!

I'm not a big make up wearer, but I use this with the rimmel wake me up concealer, and this is perfect! It stays on all day, even if I am working out, and is great for taking the shine off. I love it how it doesn't make my skin break out or dry it out in any way

Best translucent powder ever!

This powder is my holy grail, it does what it says it does and is good for all skin types. It's not heavily purfumed so it causes little, if none irritation. If you put too much on it becomes to look cakey and sits on the top of your skin.

Rimmel Stay Matte Pressed Powder

Fantastic price as most powders in NZ are way overpriced. I found there to be only a few colours to choose from which wasn't great but maybe my store just doesn't stock them all. Loved how matte it made me look but felt like it didn't match my skin tone very well.

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.
