Rimmel London Stay Matte Pressed Powder Review

I do really like this - it's affordable, provides a really nice finish and is easy to apply. I'm rather (*coughverycough*) pale, so I use Translucent, which is actually not a true translucent, so provides a little coverage which is nice. It's a yellow-based colour as well, which suits my skin perfectly. I love this for using everyday, when I wear just concealer and a bit of blush, as it looks super natural. You do have to be a bit more careful when using over foundation, as too much can make the foundation look cakey, but just a little will set everything and still look natural.

The only downside to this for me is that it doesn't last super long on my T-zone. I have normal/combo skin, so not super oily, but I really only get a few hours out of this before my nose especially looks a bit shiny. So that's a pain, but for the price I'm not going to complain too much!

I have this product in transparent and sand beige. And I like it in both colours! I have used this for about a year now and it is amazing! It doesn't give your face the 'cakey' look. I use this over my foundation or BB cream using the ELF flat top foundation brush to apply it. It sets foundation really well and leaves your face looking flawless. I cannot recommend this enough also if you want to save an additional $5 or so have a look on asos.com

The only downside I would say about this products is that it seems to have a small amount of product and I hit pan pretty quickly.

This powder sets my foundation perfectly and doesn't leave me cakey. I use it with a big kabuki and make sure to dab it on, rather than rubbing it around, i find that works best. I really like the smell too :) I do wish it was more travel friendly though.

This is my go to setting powder to apply after any liquid or mousse foundation I may be using. I use the translucent powder. It makes my foundation last well throughout the day and while it is not completely matte as the name may suggest it does keep most shine away.

I brought this product a few months back because I was seeing everyone rave about it on youtube so I decided to try it. My skin only tends to get oily half way through the day and only in my t-zone and because of my job I don't really have time to duck away and touch up so after trying this for awhile I've noticed how it nicely it keeps my skin looking matte and fresh, even by 5pm! I love how cheap it is as well, definitely one of the best setting powders I have tried!

I love this pressed powder, I use the shade Peach Glow and it fits perfectly with my skin tone, it keeps shine away for 4+ hours in my experience.

I was really surprised by this product. I got it when i left my powder at home and i really needed it… probably not the best time to experiment but i took a gamble anyways and got it. I was so excited to see that this cheap powder had an amazing matte coverage but was still lightweight considering how good the coverage was. I would definitely by this product again!

I brought this product purely because I have seen so many good reviews about it. Without a doubt the good reviews I've seen are definitely not a lie! While I do prefer a dewy finish to my skin, coming into the Winter months I don't mind having a few day's here and there where I don't mind having a matte finish. I also do not usually set my foundation with a powder but again, with it being Winter I will switch to a matte finish foundation and tend to set it with a powder. So far I am really liking this product. It's super affordable and I especially love that it is sold in many stores that are easy to access. I got mine in Translucent which doesn't leave any type of white wash against my dark colored skin. Another bonus! I have mainly been using it on my t zone to set my foundation and then again throughout the day if I'm feeling oily. For me, it doesn't tend to cake up when I do need to reapply, yet another bonus! Overall I really like this product and for the price you pay, this product will probably last me a very long time. I would be very happy to re purchase this product in the future :)

So far I've used the 000 translucent & 003 peach glow. I'm currently using the 003 peach as after using the 000 translucent for the past few months I found it too pale. I apply it with a powder brush. Originally I applied it with a pressed powered sponge, but found it didn't set my make-up very good. Both do what they say they do. While they only last 5 hours, (as stated on bottom), a midday make up check isn't that big a deal.

Also are pron to crack & the lid doesn't screw on very well

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.
