London Match Perfection,10 g (Pack of 1)

Great face powder - a staple for my bathroom cupboard

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.

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.

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

It’s light and transparent powder which makes Asian skin look white when first applied but properly put on it gives a smooth Matt effect . But there seems to be less then half the jar of it so I have to take off the second perforated bit on top . During which some gets wasted and spilled . Not enough in the jar .

This is the best translucent face powder will always recommend great coverage

Being a complete makeup junkie I have used every product you can think of. I have also tried a lot of powders with mixed results. I find that a lot of powders give a cakey appearance to makeup which I hate. As I have a mixture of dry skin with an oily t-zone I don't apply the powder all over so I use this to set the makeup under the eyes. This is a very lightweight powder which is great however can get rather messy as its so fine. It's very light in colour so suits fair skin but it's not transparent. It comes with an applicator although to be honest I find it difficult to use so would advise a good quality brush instead. I don't think it's the best powder I've used to be totally honest but I think it's great for a cheaper alternative. I would say be careful when opening and also when dipping your brush in as it goes everywhere so will waste a lot of product. I have seen this product being used on several makeup videos for 'baking' (not cookery!) I haven't tried it for that yet but I've seen it used successfully.
