I Found The Setting Powder I’ll Be Wearing To My Grave

The Nykaa Matte To Last Pore Blurring Loose Powder, a blurring powder was one such product for me. It’s designed to perfect your complexion with a matte finish.

What Is It?

The Nykaa Matte To Last Pore Blurring Loose Powder claims to be your secret weapon for achieving a seamless, soft-focus finish. Packed with finely milled, lightweight particles, this powder not only feels airy on the skin but also delivers a powerful punch of skin-smoothing benefits. It’s designed to keep your makeup in place for hours, effectively absorbing sweat and oil for an instant matte finish.

With a range of five shades, it’s tailored for all Indian skin tones and an additional translucent option. What truly sets this product apart is not just its performance but also its inclusion of a pizza finger puff making it so easy to apply in odd contours of the face.

Our Thoughts

Truth be told, the Nykaa Matte To Last Pore Blurring Loose Powder turned out to be delightful to use. Initially, I had my reservations, since I thought it might feel heavy or cakey on my skin. I have large open pores and they absorb makeup like a sponge, which then leads to a series of fresh breakouts. However, this powder was a very pleasant surprise.

The powder’s lightweight particles seamlessly blended into my skin, effortlessly minimising the appearance of pores, particularly around my T-zone. For someone with oily skin, this powder felt very high performance, absorbing excess oil without stripping away moisture or clogging my pores. If you’re on the fence about integrating loose powder into your beauty regimen, let this be the sign you’ve been waiting for. The Nykaa Matte To Last Pore Blurring Loose Powder is not only effective but also a pleasure to use, making it a new staple I do not know how I lived without!

How To Use It

Begin by selecting the shade that best matches your skin tone or opt for the translucent option for a sheer finish. Using the complimentary pizza finger puff or a fluffy powder brush, lightly dip into the powder. For a set, bake, and snatch routine that promises a flawless matte appearance, follow these steps:

1. Set: After applying your foundation and concealer, use the tinted powder to set your base. Gently press the powder onto your skin, focusing on areas prone to oiliness or where makeup tends to shift.
2. Bake: To achieve a long-lasting, creaseless under-eye area and to highlight certain parts of your face, apply a generous amount of translucent powder. Let it sit for a few minutes – this is your baking time. The heat from your skin will meld the powder with your makeup, creating a seamless finish.
3. Snatch: Finally, dust away the excess powder with a clean, fluffy brush. This step not only removes any leftover powder but also blends everything beautifully, giving you a snatched, poreless look.
