Pro Tips:
“For very oily skin, I apply Translucent Loose Setting Powder with the Velour Puff before Foundation/Tinted Moisturizer and Concealer. Powder creates a barrier to absorb and prevent oil throughout the day.” - Jason
“To make any lipstick long-wearing and transfer-resistant, try placing tissue over your lips and with Velour Puff press and roll powder into the tissue. Translucent Loose Setting Powder will absorb the excess moisture of the lipstick and keep it in place.” - Tayaba
“To make any eyeshadow go on evenly and effortlessly blendable, I apply Translucent Loose Setting Powder on lids with Eye Color Brush and then apply Eyeshadow over top.” - Ryan
