Rimmel Stay Matte Pressed Powder
Face powder is an essential for any makeup bag. It’s the key to finishing off your look and erasing the
ever-dreaded facial shine. I have looked for years for a powder that complements my skin tone and
doesn’t make me look like a powdered donut. From my own personal experience, I can attest to the
fact that finding the right powder can be a nightmare. You want one that does what it’s supposed to,
but doesn’t tell the world “HEY! I’m wearing powder on top of my foundation!!” – which is so often the
case. After searching high and low for a product that won’t break the budget, but offers top of the line
benefits, I found the holy grail of affordable powders with Rimmel’s Stay Matte pressed powder. This
stuff is magic. It instantly removes shine and sets foundation without any left behind powder evidence.
Not to mention, this stuff lasts way longer than any other kind I’ve tried (and I’ve tried many). The only
down side is you have to buy separate powder “puffs” for application, they don’t come included like
most powders. You can pick this powder up at any local retailer like Target or Walmart, and it only costs
about five bucks! Can’t beat that!
