Powder compacts

I’ve just come to the end of a Bobbi Brown Illuminating powder compact which I loved as it doesn’t make your skin look powdery but it didn’t control my t zone shine as much as I would have liked! What are you favourite compacts for 47yr old skin? Drugstore to high-end I don’t mind. Thank you

I like the One Powder Wonder from Beauty Pie. (If you know a subscriber!)

Hourglass ambient lighting powder is fabulous. I also have the beauty pie one that pp mentions above and imo it's not a patch on the hourglass.

@garybarlowstax would you say the ambient lighting powder is suitable for drier skins? What sort of finish does it give?

I'm 41, but my t zone can be quite oily (did have drier skin until I started using serum under my face cream).

I like Clinique 101 invisible matte stay-matte sheer pressed powder oil-free for all skin types.

Bare minerals mineral veil loose powder is lovely, it’s super light and looks very natural. body shop instablur cream is very very good to stop an oily t zone.

Thanks for the suggestions. GaryBarlowsTaxReturn - Thank you Smile after a bit of googling I popped into my local SpaceNK & am now the proud owner of Hourglass ambient powder in Dim light. It’s absolutely brilliant. I’m in LOVE!! Smile
