SEPHORA – MICROSMOOTH MULTI-TASKING FACE BAKED POWDER

SEPHORA – MICROSMOOTH MULTI-TASKING FACE BAKED POWDER

+ Description: A baked face powder that gives lightweight, buildable coverage to even skin tone, set and enhance your look with a naturally radiant finish.

WHAT’S GOOD ABOUT IT: I’ve been using this powder for at least 4 or 5 years now and I will never use any other finishing powder! It was originally supposed to be a lightweight foundation in powder form but it works amazingly well as a finisher. It can be used for so many different things from setting your foundation, to blending out everything you applied on your face, to being used as a sheer powder when you don’t feel like wearing much, to being used as a bronzer, etc! I primarily use it after I set my concealer with translucent setting powder. I take a fluffy brush and lightly dust this powder everywhere else, and when there isn’t much left on the brush, I dust away the setting powder I was allowing to sit and bake. I also use this on no-makeup makeup days by applying a regular skin tone concealer under my eyes, setting it with powder and brushing this everywhere else.

AND THE NOT SO GOOD:  Nothing bad to say AT ALL. I wish the compact came with a mirror but I also understand that would affect the cheap price.

WHAT ELSE YOU NEED TO KNOW:  This powder is a dupe for MAC Mineralized Skin Finish powders which retails at $37. That used to be my holy grail until I found this one.

BEAUTY TIP: Be sure to spray your face with setting and finishing spray after you use this. It will give you an even more natural finish and will prevent it from rubbing off as easily.
