Aesthetica Translucent Loose Setting Powder - Matte Finishing Powder - Flash Friendly - Includes Velour Puff

Great consistency and very subtle color

Made my face really white even with darker shade of foundation.

This is the first time I have ever used loose powder. Im 44 and have always used pressed powder. Can I just say GAME CHANGER! I have been missing out my whole life. This powder makes my skin look like porcelain. My skin looks so smooth I cannot believe it. It doesn't settle into lines around my eyes either which is why I was skeptical on getting it but the reviews were too good to ignore. I watched the product video and applied it just like she did. I apply my foundation and blush then sprinkle a little powder into the lid. Using the powder puff, I fold the puff in half and dip it into the powder and press it under my eyes, on my forehead, and nose and chin. Let it sit for a minute and then swirl it with a big powder brush. It sets your makeup perfect. I apply my makeup at 6:30 am and head to work. When I get home at 7 it looks the same. No need to reapply. I have oily skin and usually had to apply pressed powder throughout the day. You don't have to with this powder. And the powder is a huge size. Having to use so little each day, it will last a long time before needing to re purchase. I have nothing bad to say about this at all.

I took a chance and bought this loose powder based on reviews and I am glad I did buy it. In fact I liked it so much, when it arrived, I immediately bought another one just to make sure I had a good supply. It comes with a very nice powder puff and it is .70 ounces. I noticed my other loose powder from the discount stores is .63 ounces. I usually pay about $8.00 for the discount store brands. Aesthetica does cost about $10.00 more than my other powder but I felt it was worth it because you do get more ounces. It goes on so lightly and is so sheer. Also I noticed it really does not have a scent. Which I find to be a plus. If you do decide to buy this powder , I hope you will enjoy using it as much as I do.

I have to say that even though this translucent powder comes with instructions, I never fully figured out the best way to apply it correctly. I really wish there had been a short video or tutorial available when I ordered it — that would have made a big difference. One of the things I liked the most is that it comes with a generous amount of product, and the puff is very soft and pleasant to use. The packaging is sturdy and well-presented, which gives it a nice, high-quality feel. From my experience, this powder seems better suited for professional or special-occasion makeup rather than everyday use. It’s definitely functional and of good quality, but it takes a bit of practice to get the best results.
