I have a loose powder from MAC which is nice. It's the Select Sheer/Loose. I use the pressed version for touch-ups during the day.

If it doesn't have to be a loose powder, then the Mineralize skin finish natural is very nice too. I actually think it's better than the select sheer loose powder.

Nars light reflecting loose powder is supposed to be really really good, so good that it is sold out at all the counters bar Cardiff at the moment.

When my skin was greasier (really oily T zone) I really liked lily lolo's finishing powder. And is only about £12 or thereabouts.

Chanel loose powder is v good for shine control

Second vote for lily lolo - have the matt one and its great esp if I put a little on both before and after the foundation.

Nars is great but I LOVE Chantecaille. It is really good at stopping shine but very light and looks natural.

The Nars Light Reflecting Powder is amazing, make sure you get the loose one though.

Honestly, it's the best ever!

I have really really oily skin. I've just converted to Benefit's Hello Flawless. It has been a revalation.
