What is a good loose powder for combination skin?

[Anonymous]

I've been wanting to try out a loose powder for a while. I have combination skin and I don't know if this matters but I have warm undertone and my skin color is light to medium beige.

One of the best loose powders I've used As a person with combination skin is the Coty Airspun Powder in translucent. For one it's around $10 which is wonderful considering loose powder gets everywhere and can sometimes be overpriced making it seem as though your money is going down the drain. It keeps oil at bay and doesn't intensify my dry patches. It helps to make your makeup stay all day and is very finely milled. There is no flashback because there is no silica and it also works very well for baking your foundation and concealer. The only downside is the fact that it contains talc and has a very strong scent which can be over powering for some people. However after applying the powder and letting the powder sink into foundation and concealer I cannot recognise any trace of the scent and find that my makeup will last all day even without setting spray.

Hi @Anonymous,

I suggest checking out The Cover FX Perfect Setting Powder. This is great for setting your foundation and makes you look air brushed. It is also very light weight and does not look cakey or dry.

I also suggest looking into Cinema Secrets Ultralucent Setting Powder. They have many shades and it's oil free and provides a natural-looking matte finish. 

I hope this helps!

Best Wishes,

Janean
