Your Finishing Touch for Flawless Wear
A great makeup look deserves a flawless finish, and that’s where a Setting Powder truly shines. Designed to extend the wear of your base, a face powder helps keep everything in place while minimising shine, blurring the look of pores, and smoothing texture. Whether you prefer a barely-there matte veil or a softly radiant finish, makeup powders are an effortless way to refresh and refine your complexion throughout the day.
Choose from ultra-fine loose powders for a weightless, airbrushed effect or pressed powders for on-the-go touch-ups. With options suited to oily, combination, and normal skin types, these versatile formulas help control excess oil without dulling your natural glow. Many powders also brighten, blur or colour-correct, making them a staple for anyone looking to enhance the finish of their foundation, tinted serum or concealer.
Within this edit, you’ll find everything from silky translucent powders to tinted complexion-enhancing formulas from brands loved by makeup artists and beauty enthusiasts alike, including Laura Mercier, NARS, Fenty Beauty, MAC, and Bobbi Brown. Layer lightly for a soft-focus look, or press into targeted areas to lock makeup in place from morning to night.
Can I use face powder instead of foundation?
Yes you can use face powder instead of foundation! A light coverage face powder is a great alternative to foundation. You’ll get a natural finish too.
Is loose or pressed face powder better?
Whilst loose powder is great for baking your under eyes, pressed or compact powder is better to use when you’re on the go for touch ups.
