For my often dry skin, this product isn't ideal but I do like it for its mattifying powers over my few oily spots. I use the transparent shade so I don't have to worry about the colour matching my skin which is brilliant. A downside for this powder is that it has a crap load of sparkles. For a matte powder, doesn't the sparkles counteract its purpose? Without the sparkles, this product would be almost perfect. Overall, for its price, this is a very decent product.

I bought this on ASOS conjoint with the rimmel stay matte foundation and I absolutely loved it! It's good to use as a setting powder on regular foundations but not so much on the rimmel foundation as it makes already flawless finish of the stay matte foundation a bit cakey and too powdered. It is good with this foundation however as a touch up during the day when you see your foundation beginning to shine. Love it!
This is just that powder that I will always come back to in the end, it gives such a matte finish which I appreciate when my skin is at its oiliest. It fights off shine for hours, and if it does break through you don't look like a complete oil slick which I love!
Tips: Liquid highlights underneath the powder still show through nicely, but are best when topped off with a powder highlight!
Absolutely love Rimmel Stay Matte Pressed Powder. I have Combination oily skin and I sometimes find when powdering my face it can look cakey, But I don't get that with this product. And it can be super cheap depending where you find it.
Tips: I also find using a flat top brush also works best rather then a big powder brush
Do I stay matte..? Up to a point, yes :) I do have oily skin so this works to an extent and then I have to touch up with some blot powder during the day (currently using Neutrogena shine control - Invisible)
I pat this onto my Tzone with a brush and it doesn't look chalky or cakey and then lightly brush the rest of my face. It does have some oily control compared to regular powder but don't expect a miracle.
It is super affordable and there is a range of colours to choose from. Just don't throw this into your handbag as the lid will probably break or come off.
I've tried a fair few powders in my time and this one is definitely one that I keep coming back to. The Rimmel Stay Matte Pressed Powder is perfection - it does exactly what its out to do.. Make me stay nice and matte for the day.
I find that most powders can either cake up and crack or they just do not last and end up having to have touch ups throughout the day. This powder has neither of these issues for me, I stay mostly matte (until I get home at the end of the day).
The product is easy to apply. It comes in a fabulous range in shades but I stick with the transparent.
The Rimmel Stay Matte Pressed Powder is definitely on my buy again list. I would recommend it to anyone who is after a matte powder thats going to last (most) of the day.
Having dry skin I tend to avoid powder, but I love the Stay Matte by Rimmel! It doesn't cake, does it's job and definitely helps my foundation stay. Really affordable and great range of colours.
AMAZING. This powder doesn't cake and stays matte all day! I love this product and always come back to it! It is affordable and does a super good job and hiding spots and/or redness!
this powder is really fine and doesnt cake. it absorbs moisture really well and keeps my skin looking fresh and flawless after a whole day and night, i keep home with my foundation still looking perfect
I love using this product! reasonably priced and is great! I use over liquid foundation and it saves my skin from getting oily! I touch up throughout they day definitely am going to buy again!
