Studio Translucent Matifying Powder

I wear this powder every day. It leaves the nicest finish on my skin and never looks cakey. I've repurchased three times in the last year, because it is so great!

I started using this over a year ago and I instantly fell in love. Does exactly what its suppose to do and doesn't make me look cakey! Love Love Love!

The ELF Studio Translucent Matifying Powder has been my go-to blot powder for over a year now. I've repurchased this twice already, and even bought an extra for my professional kit. I love that this powder is translucent because it never adds more coverage than I need, which means when I'm touching up my makeup, it won't make my face look cakey. I don't use the sponge applicator that it comes with because I don't find it works very well on me. I tend to use either a puff applicator or a tiny kabuki brush to dust my skin when I need to reduce some shine. The packaging is very sleek and the large mirror inside is very useful. I would recommend this to everyone because we all could use a little matifying sometime in our day. I've also used this on BF in the past when we take photos, men don't care if they are shiny, but if we're taking a nice photo, I want him to look fresh too :)

Nice for the price and good for everyday wear.. I use this over my bb cream for a nice matte finish. May have to re apply and won't be good for darker skin tones as it may show up a bit chalky looking.. Oh and if u have drier skin may want to go with the Elf hi def powder

I honestly thought this was going to be perfect to keep in my bag for "on-the-go" touch ups, but it is TERRIBLE! I used it once and haven't touched it since :( I was so bummed when I used it because it was not translucent, what so ever. It left a pinky, chalky, gross looking finish. It basically made my pores show up even more than if I used nothing at all.

I have oily skin that no matter what I do gets shine half way threw the day. I love this compact because I can just throw it in my purse and go! It doesn't keep the oil from coming back but I can live with that.

I bought this powder months ago because I was curious about it. I was placing an order online and was getting it for half off so why not try it! Well, I love it! It's affordable and I love the packaging! I'm on my second one already. =) I really love this powder! I use this powder to set my foundation. Blends very well and it really does make my face matte and takes away any shine that I don't want. I however don't use the sponge applicator it comes with. I use my powder brush or blending brush to apply this. I do use the sponge when I am on the go whenever I feel like I need to touch up though. But then again I am not super oily so I don't need much touching up. The sponge applicator isn't bad either. This product last long and goes on very smoothly without looking chalky!

Cons - May not be good for those who have extremely dry skin because it can accentuate dry flaky skin. May not work for all skin tones.

I use to hate powders but I guess I can try them again and I've heard good stuff about this product in videos I watch on youtube , I'm not much of a makeup person but I don't mind trying new things to make my self pretty here and there

I have used this powder over a month and for the cheapt price it is an ok product. This powder comes with a sponge applicator (but I don´t like it at all) and so I prefer applying it with a powder brush. It is lightweight and it isn´t cakey. It might make your skin very pale looking ( it happened to me somehow couple of times). I like the packaging and that it comes with nice big mirror.

I love this powder. I use it over top of my ELF Flawless Finish Foundation to set it and it helps my face look less oily/dewy. It doesn't look chalky or cakey. I don't like the sponge that comes with it though, I use a brush instead. But overall, I like this powder
