Cheaper alternative to Clinique Stay Matte Pressed Powder

I use Clinique stay matte sheer pressed powder in 101 invisible matte.

It does a mostly acceptable job of helping with an oily forehead, nose and chin and the shade is good on me as long as I don't wear too much.

But when I started wearing it ten years ago it was about £19, which I thought was a lot. Now it's £27, and although I try to get it when it's discounted, I just can't justify spending that much any more.

Is there something similar that's not so pricey?

Have a look at Max factor Creme puff powder. Fab stuff.

MUA Pro base from Superdrug, £3.50! I used to use a Body Shop one that I loved but they discontinued it and this is the best alternative I've found. I haven't tried the Clinique one so can't say if it's very similar, but it does what you're talking about. Worth a go maybe.

Thanks, I'll check them both out!

The Rimmel one is one of the best, I say this as I wonder why in the world I spent £30+ on a Charlotte Tilbury powder when Rimmel did the same job for less than £5 😫www.boots.com/rimmel-stay-matte-pressed-powder-10097901
