Hi Looby,

http://www.theanswerb.../Question1054588.html

^^^ On that thread you recommended some superdrugs face powder. I went in there to get some on Sunday and I looked at what I think is their own range but all the powders I saw seemed to be compressed powders and were different shades. Does tranluscent powder come in a shade then? You couldn't pop a picture up so I know exactly what I'm looking for could you?

Also, can you use without any foundation on? I rarely wear foundation.

Thank you! :c)

Cheers

translucent used to come in just 'translucent' but some companies do a pale and darker shade but should still say translucent on the bottom ot the pack on the info sticker

ok to get rid of shine without foundation but works well over a lightly tinted moisturiser

hiya china ..
coooo, ive got an FAO! lol ....

yeah i remember your thread about the transclucent loose powders,
no it wasnt superdrugs, it was boots natural collection that i and a couple of others buy and recommend - £1.99 each.

yes, id imagine you could dust a little over your face without wearing a foundation underneath.

maybe get a compressed one aswell, to keep in your bag for any little shiney touch ups in the day.

if you need any more help, just let us know :o)
I've always used Rimmels Stay Matte Pressed Powder which is about £3.99 from superdrug.
I would say if you are going to use it on it's own without foundation, that a mineral powder would be good. They are very light on the skin but give a slight coverage as well (Translucent powder would just take shine away).
I know Maybelline do a Loose Mineral powder for around £3.99. xx
I've tried a few different mineral powders and this one is by far the best - it's really light and gives you a nice glow without leaving your face looking dry. I usually find minerals accentuate my pores, but not with this.

Morning!

Thank you everyone for your answers. I'm a bit spoilt for choice now which unfortunately means I end up even more confused if I haven options!

What's this mineral powder stuff then? I don't really want anything with coverage, I'm happy with just a bit of blush and some eye brightner thingy for daily wear.
good for those blotchy mornings .... I am not a powder or foundation woman either but still keep some for emergencies and if I am being photographed (weddings etc) to calm my skin tone down, I use the rimmel ones they are cheap and effective

I don't really have blotchy mornings... I have two looks 1) Will definitely scare small children and 2) Might not scare some exceptionally brave, small children.
