Face powder
Face powder
is used to reduce shine, help fix makeup and to give the skin a smooth look or
natural glow. It can also help hide open pores and powder absorbed oil from
your skin which stops your complection from looking too oily. It’s available in
loose or pressed powder.
Loose
powder- This is the most popular due to the natural look it gives, it also
lasts for the longest. Makeup artists love to use this product because it make
the skin look flawless and porcelain. It’s best used with a large fluffy makeup
brush, gently dab it into the powder and tap once or twice to remove the
excess. Dust it over the face and concentrate on the t-zone to reduce shin if
you have an oily complection. It okay to use at home however if you’re going
out and plan on touching up your makeup using loose powder can take more time
and make more mess.
Pressed
powder- This gives the skin a matte finish and is lightweight and small to
carry around. These normally come with a mirror on the inside of the compact
and an application sponge however you will get a better result if used with a
makeup brush.
If you don’t
want your powder to add any colour or tone to your skin tone you can get
translucent powder which just sets your makeup and reduces patches of shine.
