I wear DW foundation and need something very sheer just to blot in the summer,in the winter I don't bother.

I've been looking at the Mac blot powder but mixed reviews.

MAC Blot powder! I've bought it several times, I buy a shade darker than my usual. I apply it lightly and it gets rid of shine without looking powdery. Probably too expensive but I like the effect it gives.

Clinique Almost Powder is brilliant. Or, Rimmel Stay Matte is nearly as good but only £2.99 compared to £23 for Clinique.

Thank you, will look into theseSmile

I use the Rimmel stay matt to set my BB cream and I like it, although not tried a high end version to compare!

I really like Beauty Pie one powder wonder. It’s the best I’ve ever had.

I use By Terry Hyaluronic pressed hydra powder.

I also use Beauty Pie One Powder Wonder and used to use Clinique. OPW is less heavy.

No 7 foundation and powders work well for me.

Jabbinell · 19/06/2021 18:02

Mac blot or mineralize

I also use EL DW foundation, and I use EL DW stay in place matte powder.

It's great for touch ups.

MrsPelligrinoPetrichor · 19/06/2021 18:46

Lots of suggestions, thanks Smile

I also like Bobbi Brown pressed powder as it's very fine.

Beauty pie one powder wonder. Translucent and great value. Not cakey.

Rosesarere · 19/06/2021 19:45

I love beauty pie one powder wonder, or urban decay all nighter, if I had to choose one it would be beauty pie.

I love Beauty Pie OPW too but it's the only thing I want to repurchase from there. Any equivalents out there to save me from subscribing again?

Housewife2010 · 20/06/2021 08:20

There's Beauty Pie on eBay. People (like me) buy the most popular items to sell to use up excess allowance.

I use Chanel Les Beiges, I tried Beauty Pie but it is total crap compared to the Chanel one.

cricketmum84 · 20/06/2021 18:26

I love face base from the body shop :)

I like the beauty pie one, it looks like it does nothing then when I catch a glimpse in a mirror when I'm out (not that I'm out much these days) it's like my skin is so much healthier looking.
