Powder Perfect: The Best Of Translucent Powders

My top Translucent Powder picks.

I have three for you, from By Terry, Laura Mercier and Charlotte Tilbury.


Do you wear translucent powder? I admit I love it and wear it most days. Translucent powder is a product that gently sets the makeup without altering the colour of the skin tone. No oil, no smudge, without looking dull.


How To

A foundation brush is the most straight-forward to use as the bristles are tightly packed giving more control over the application of the powder.


Sprinkle a little translucent powder into the lid of the container and load the brush with a small amount of translucent powder.


Press the translucent powder onto the face over the foundation, tinted moisturiser or bb cream.


For a dewy look, apply the powder to the t-zone, avoiding the cheeks.


Top Tip: If the smudging of eyeliner or mascara is an issue, dab a little translucent powder along the lower lash line to prevent this.



Like foundation, less is more when it comes to translucent powder.
