How Do You Apply Setting Powder?

I'm not into doing a "whole" face when wearing makeup. I see a lot of ppl recommending to apply powder in order to make it last longer.
I'm just wondering how do you apply it without it messing up or smudging your makeup... and what do you use to apply it? thanks!

I was taught to lightly press it onto face after that I go in with big soft fluffy brush to make it look airbrushed.

Like Mal wares makeup G. I too take my powder brush and turn it more onto it's side and lightly press the powder onto the skin. I don't follow up with another brush though..

Thank you all! I always love reading the advice that Alma and Velen provide.
now I have a really dumb question lol... what does the powder Puff look like?? I've learned so much from this app esp regarding the uses of different brushes but I don't think I've ever seen a powder puff lol

I tal it on with a cotton pad as I figure it more sanitary but will try the puff :-)
