Rimmel London Match Perfection,10 g (Pack of 1)

Rimmel products in general are excellent value for money and this product was no exception. The translucent powder I was using before this was white in colour and I had assumed that the Rimmel version would be white too. After all, I think of translucent as colourless. However, the Rimmel powder was a very pale peach in colour and I was worried that this would be too obvious when I applied it to my skin as I am pale skinned. However, I needn't have worried. It disappeared into my skin as if it were colourless. It was really fine in texture and gave a really natural appearance. This was an excellent product for this low price. I will certainly buy again.

This Rimmel translucent loose powder is an excellent substitute for the recently discontinued Boots No 7 translucent loose powder. Rimmel’s powder is not drying which I assume is because it does not contain Kaolin (new Boots No 7 one does). Rimmel’s is very light in texture and gives a lovely undetectable soft finish. The colour is almost transparent but not a stark white so it blends softly and perfectly and doesn't stand out or change the colour of foundation. If you're looking for something subtle, non-drying and doesn't settle in pores then this Rimmel translucent loose powder is perfect. For the price alone it’s worth giving it a try.

I have tried the Rimmel London Match Perfection Powder, and honestly, I am impressed! This translucent powder just sets my makeup completely, leaving an even finish on my skin-matte, not cakey or heavy. It is perfect for a light, natural look and helps to blur out blemishes and fine lines, softening your features. One thing I like about this powder is that it really blends into my skin tone. I have medium toned skin, and the one thing that always can make me a little nervous applying some sort of powder is the white cast, so for anyone with an olive skin tone like me; this powder works perfectly. Again, this leaves on no white cast. The staying power of this powder is also great. Usually, by midday my skin can get oily; as I have quite oily skin but with this powder, I barely notice shine, and touch up way less often as compared to other loose powders I was using before. The 10g size is perfect for travel, and a little goes a long way, so it will last quite a while. If you're in the market for an affordable but good setting powder, I really do recommend giving this a try for the price! I for sure will definitely be repurchasing. However, I find that it does have pretty messy packaging and the powder can easily spill out everywhere. Not ideal for rushing in the morning and rather a hassle to clean up. As well, it isn't ideal for those with dryer skin types as it can cause makeup to look cakey and thick; so I would not recommend it for those with dry skin.

I can't believe I have never tried this before. I gave up on a powder finish because I always found that they left my makeup looking patchy and worse as the day went on. I bought this on a whim and I'm so glad I did. I have fairly pale and really dry skin. Once I have applied my liquid foundation & leave for five minutes as I finish my hair etc, I apply this power using the puff provided (a little goes a long way) and use a brush in circular motions to blend all over my face evenly before finishing with blusher. I have found that for once, after a long day at work and unable to 'freshen up' my makeup, I have found that although not the same as I started the day, my makeup is now less patchy and dried out by the time I get home. I'm so happy with this product and will definitely be buying again. I have attached a picture in natural daylight with no filters, which I think shows how much of a matte finish this can create.

Really like this item lasts a very long time . Value for money will buy again.

I bought what is usually my color in other brands, but it is very light, makes me look like a face-powdered woman of the 1800's. I don't use it at all. However, I like the quality, the lightness of the powder and the light weight package. So, just be careful with the color.

After reading the reviews I was a little hesitant buying this product,had it been more expensive I wouldn't have bothered but as it was so cheap I thought I'd take a risk,so glad I did,this is a lovely light powder that is a pleasure to use,so lightweight that you don't know it's there,keeps my face matte and does appear to soften wrinkles,doesn't settle in lines and matches skin tone even thought it looked the colour of talcum powder which was quite off putting when I first opened it. The only criticism I have is the amount supplied,it was half full as others have stated and as it wasn't sealed I do wonder if some had been removed? I recommend buying this powder,even half full !

Best loose powder ever! Doesn't cake like some powders tend to, lasts all day and feels lovely on the skin. It is also actually translucent so will suit any skin tone. I don't get peoples reactions about this product being too fine and inhaling it blah blah, to me that sounds ludicrous, sure it is a fine loose powder, but not overly so. I use a brush to apply a light base of this product all over my face after my foundation before applying blusher, highlighter etc, then I use the puff provided to set my face once i'm done. Overall this product is the best value for money and for me better than the £25 mineral powder I had before discovering this.

El producto es justo lo que buscaba. Polvos translúcidos para aplicar después de la base de maquillaje. Deja la piel suave y sin brillos. Hay que aplicar un poco sin exceso. Buen precio y buena calidad.

Buona e leggera

One of the best blurring powder I have used

I didn’t expect much from this powder but it does an amazing job of setting and staying put. I do my setting spray BEFORE I set with power and it works beautifully. I have the most natural, silky finish and it lasts all day. I’ve been trying this powder during the really humid days and it doesn’t budge. If I need a touch up because I look a little shiny, it still looks natural and not cakey. A little goes a long way so I haven’t been using a lot of it. 10/10 powder!!

I have officially switched from Laura Mercier to this one. I realised that this one works just as good and controls oil. Absolutely great value for money.
