No7 Flawless Finishing Loose Powder - Translucent - 13gram

Product Information

I have a pale english rose complexion so the 'translucent' is perfect! it makes my foundation last longer and means I use my No7 pressed powder less throughout the day. It really gives a nice matt and 'radiant' effect, and prevents my face from looking 'chalky' from too much powder around the pores on my cheeks.

Could No7 Perfect Light Loose Powder in Translucent be THE best budget undereye setting powder? Yes, that’s right, people — and here’s my review.

With that said, the first product on the undereye spotlight is the No.7 Perfect Light Loose Powder in the shade Translucent.

Once applied to the skin, I’d describe it as lightweight and pretty much invisible. It sets concealer down nicely without adding extra cakiness.

One thing Boots omits to mention is that the quantity of the product has been reduced from 20g to 13g, with no obvious reduction in price. I only became aware of this when I realised how little time the powder was lasting. A short while ago, the No7 ' Perfect Light Loose Powder' was withdrawn, and rebranded as 'No 7 Flawless Finishing Loose Powder'. The product seems exactly the same. Indeed, Boots assures customers online, 'Rest assured, the formulation of this product remains the same, giving you great results'. Unscrew the loose powder lid and sprinkle some into the lid. Using the velour puff with three fingers under the ribbon, press the powder onto the puff.

Using a powder brush, sweep over the face to buff the powder in and remove excess. you can put a tiny bit on the brush if needed, but I just use the brush clean.
