The BEST Setting Powder For Mature Skin for UNDER EYES and FACE

[@StephanieMarie]

*💖For APPLICATION HELP & clarification on setting vs finishing powders, see this video: **kzbin.info/www/bejne/gn7CmXeXhZuIjLs** . What are YOUR fave setting powders?!💖*

[@kellyholman]

Stephanie Marie I use hourglass.

[@AsianPoshDorene]

Hourglass and it cosmetics bye bye pores

[@ClaraBlush]

Hourglass Veil setting powder works great for me under the eyes. I will not use anything else.

[@kamloopscruiser874]

Laura Mercier or Candid by Revlon

[@shirlyhalfon9867]

Charlot tillbury by far

[@myaccount5362]

I don’t want to overstep my boundaries here but I believe Nikkia Joy’s powder and sponge is being shipped out from CA. She said in her video introduction of the powder and sponge that she had to find better labs and distribution, thusly making it longer shipping to the UK. Nikkia lives in Australia. Unless this has changed in the reverse I do apologize! However, I would still buy backups of her powder as I understand it is amazing and was in many 2019 beauty influencers award winning products for the year. Side note I just love watching her videos!

[@irisk934]

So glad you're talking about no 7. I really think the setting powder is such high quality and underrated. I have the loose version. It's such a great everyday setting powder, I think I actually prefer it to my Laura Mercier. My favorite is Charlotte Tilbury and The Hourglass and I surprisingly also really like the Coty airspun.

[@robinlawson7441]

Yes! I bought it on her recommendation last year and it's all I use. I did get the Nikkia Joy one and love it but can't wear it more than a day or two at a time or I break out. No 7 is my go-to. Doesn't work well under my eyes, but great for the rest of my face.

[@sueanderson3356]

Iris loves life Hourglass Veil is my favourite finishing powder ever!

[@karenferrer1461]

I love the No. 7 loose transluscent powder...it is incredible and doesn't emphasise wrinkles in mature women or look dry under eyes.

[@StephanieMarie]

So good!

[@emmanleah1]

Karen Ferrer will try that one. Ppl talk abt the Airspun but it’s drying for the undereye

[@speedy5186]

@@emmanleah1 totally agree. Ive tried the airspun and it is way too drying.

[@rachelenochs4685]

I am also in my 40s, have oily combo skin & live in Florida. My favorite winter setting powder is Bare Minerals Hydrating Mineral Veil Finishing Powder. It enables me to wear matte & oil controlling foundations in the winter when the humidity levels are lower & not look flat or cakey. Thanks for the great video, Stephanie!

[@emmejuliana8773]

Thank you for these great recommendations! Here is my hack that I keep in my purses and travel bags: I take a travel size jar of the Too Faced Ethereal loose powder, and tap about half back out into a full size jar of the Too Faced, and mix back in the same amount of the Nikkia Joy into the mini jar, and Voila it is the perfect loose powder for travel that meets all needs!

[@Myover50fashionlife]

Im so pleased you like our British No 7. Its a stalwart of our high street and really reasonable prices.

[@jenp.6735]

I am still struggling to find a powder for my dry under eyes. I do have a lot of wrinkles under my eyes. This video was helpful as it broke down which powders might be better for dry under eyes. I have wanted to try the By Terry but it is good to know that it isn’t as helpful with an oily t-zone. I haven’t tried the Lancôme powder yet so I will add that to the list.

[@MariaJodway]

My two favorite are the primed & poreless for under the eyes and the Laura Mercier on the face especially the T-Zone area. Works like a charm every time 😉

[@coffeentheclouds]

So far the Fenty banana powder is doing well for me. I tried the No.7 pressed and I felt it was a tinge of white to my skin.

[@carolynlindenmayer3577]

I love the Nikkia Joy powder. It even works great on my 54 year old skin. I've been a subscriber of hers for a few years. Thanks for your video. xx

[@nancyaustin2430]

Laura Mercier for setting. Charolett Tilbury for finish.

[@kamloopscruiser874]

Thank you Stephanie Marie! I appreciate the comparisons and the price per oz. and the travel friendliness. I love my Laura Mercier & Revlon Candid. The Candid is a bit better for dry skin and dry under eyes and it has a flip top under the cap like that Too Faced design. But it does have flash back.

[@myaccount5362]

That cost per oz. really is a eye opener! I could have gone without knowing that information! The No.7 pressed and loose sounds like a product I will definitely look into!

[@loving50andbeyond]

Thank you, Stepanie. I am using the Nikkia Joy powder and am loving it. I also enjoy supporting women-owned businesses instead of big companies. I love it!

[@FamilyMembersOnly]

I had to throw away a brand new Charlotte Tilbury Flawless Finish compact because it dried the heck out of my skin. I mean it sucked all moisture out to the point I looked much older. Sticking with Laura Mercier from now on.

[@meagenb4968]

Hi Stephanie Marie! I use at least 4 of he powders you mention, most particularly the Nikkia Joy!! Love it!! I also use the WellPeople, Flower Beauty and No. 7. All in different places on my face! So good to have someone go through and do such a thorough breakdown.

[@StephanieMarie]

Awesome Meagen! Thank you!

[@sansdeb]

Great video, love all the recommendations. Love CT and hourglass powders. As long as CT don't test on animals, they are cruelty free, loop hole or not. Actually it is nice that people in China can get her products due to that loop hole! As long as no body is testing CT products on animals, it is cruelty free (in my opinion).

[@laurenskubish400]

I love the well people brightening powder for dry skin because talc is very drying. I swear nothing works like this powder and 20 bucks is not that bad!

[@tammyvaught2210]

I really like the Chantecaille and Hourglass loose setting powders. The Chantecaille is $65 but you get 28 grams of product. It’s really a beautiful powder and works well both on the face and under the eyes. Same for the Hourglass but if you’re oily I wouldn’t recommend it. I really liked the Nikkia Joy powder but my poor daughter is such an oil slick I gave it to her and she absolutely loves it. No other powder can control her oils like that one. I have very normal skin with dryish undereyes so I don’t need a powder to control oil.

[@mruizcre]

I like the No7 (loose version), it looks pretty good under my eyes. My main setting powder is the Clinique Blended Face Powder, however I don't follow the instructions and I use it as regular loose powder.

[@louisesharpy]

OMG IM SO GLAD YOU DID THIS !! I have a couple different ones and get so confused. You are such a special person. I love the way you put such hard work Into your videos. You are truly amazing. Honest. So much time. Thanks for being amazing !!

[@StephanieMarie]

Thank you so much! 💗

[@fionafrazer8820]

BeautyPie One Powder Wonder is a great setting powder. I just repurchased the Laura Mercier Translucent Setting Powder, which I have used for years, and it has changed. It immediately goes cakey - bought another just in case it was a bad one, but the same thing happened. The No.7 is too drying for me, but love Hourglass Dim Light as a finisher.

[@Soapartisan875]

Wonderful video .. I am 51 yrs old with oily skin and dry undereyes and I use the Hourglass Diffused light powder to set my undereyes as it brightens the area and is very finely milled .. I like using the It Cosmetics Celebration powder foundation to set my face it’s chock full of good for skin ingredients .. On days I’m super oily I love the Catrice Waterproof powder it too is very finely milled and perfects the skin..Revolution Beauty just came out with a peach setting powder that is wonderful for combo skin and their Bake n Blot powder is beautiful for setting the whole face and undereyes too ..

[@janetzak8592]

My fave is CHANEL Translucent 2 color I have your skin type and find this excellent

[@janetn9942]

I just bought the NYX HD Studio Photogenic Finishing Powder. I use it to set my under eyes (I rarely like to do this , except maybe in summer) and on my eyelids over my concealer . I like it cuz there’s only 1 ingredient: silica . Super fine and light . So far so good 👌🏻

[@Rose_Sakura]

I have combo skin and I agree with your suggestions on the Coverfx Perfect setting and Lancôme powder. They’re both great. I did find the Laura Mercier powder looks bad on the under eyes.

[@penelopefongers2384]

Hourglass {Ambient) Diffused Light for Under Eyes. Hourglass {Ambient} Incandescent Strobe Light or CT Airbrush Flawless Finish for face.

[@lisathornton4831]

I like most all those powders. I also use the Dermablend powder and Fenty Pro Filt'r. I would like to try the Nikia Joy powder, it's on my list🌞

[@Queenmarie88]

Love the Dermablend!!

[@tonipage5191]

Love the Nikia Joy

[@zilam98]

12:09 the Well People powder. the only item among the options you listed that is not only talc free, but is also Leaping Bunny certified cruelty free. if they are not certified with Leaping Bunny, especially when they are produced here in the US or are US based, i dont consider them to be truly cruelty free, even when they are PETA certified. PETA's certification for a cruelty free product is certainly lacking, especially when compared to Leaping Bunny's standards

[@nctr3791]

I have actually stopped setting my under eyes with powder all together. IM 51 and my under eyes are dry-i just think they look so much smoother without powder.

[@pattyrodgers3071]

I agree Nancy. I am 56 and I have tried and tried but whatever powder, whatever the application as soon as I use powder it instantly looks like the desert ground😱. I have found using lots of under eye cream and color corrector does the trick. Even using concealer gets tricky but I do once in awhile.

[@amyernst985]

I’m 47yo and what I’ve learned is to use a small fluffy brush and gently tap into the powder and then tap the brush on the back of my hand and gently press very slowly under my eyes~ only doing this one time no matter what! I cannot go back over a second time just once does great!

[@loriyoung653]

I don't set under mine either for the same reason. No matter how much moisturizing I do under the eyes, the instant I breathe the word "powder" near my eyes I look like the picture of the dried up lake bed that is all cracked and flaky no matter how little I use. I'm 45. Haven't set my under eyes in a few years now.

[@karaleonor9638]

Hi Stephanie! Glad you released the best powders video. Actually, I think it’s not only the powder, it’s also the technique. I mean since you explained the difference and how to apply the setting and the finishing powder, I gladly reconciled with the powders. And the result is amazing. I’ve tried the Jeffree star setting powder and it does a very decent job underneath the eyes as well, I have the translucent version. But something about the Nikkia Joy one intrigued me : how do you apply the powder BEFORE the make up 🤨 I don’t get it. Thanks again and have a great Sunday

[@florenceyoung1246]

Excellent video! LM translucent loose powder is my holy grail one! I have oily skin with large pores and I'm on my second jar of this powder!

[@SueB402]

My faves are the No 7 loose powder and the Charlotte Tilbury...love the finish! I want to try that Lift and Luminate version from No 7...heard it’s really nice too. Thanks so much for sharing your faves and for your in-depth reviews as always xo

[@inikidaisy]

Your makeup always looks flawless. Great job on the video. I used Face atelier's ultra loose setting powder for many years and recently switched over to Nikkia Joy setting powder. Can't wait to hear your top favorite finishing powders!

[@auntiear126]

Boy have I been struggling with my under eye area! Thanks for your detailed vid!

[@blupatches3030]

what an amazing, informative video; love - LOVE that little feature you added into your video that reveals whether this product is suitable for under eye areas and etc -- very thoughtful!! would definitely appreciate if you'd add some timestamps to your vids - it'd be so very helpful! but only if you're cool with it ; ) still immensely grateful for the effort that has went into this vid steph! I've been binge watching your video about all types of powders and have really loved your content xx

[@randig7503]

Happy Sunday 😎 I definitely need help! With my never ending search for the perfect powders 💋

[@valeriekingsbury3394]

Lisa Gomez same!!

[@michelinegosselin3879]

I used the Maybelline. Both the pressed and loose versions. I use the pressed one for the t-zone and the loose for everywhere else.

[@cheryl28rae]

My favorite setting powder, especially for under eye area (I’m 50 with dry crepey under eye skin) is hands down Stellar Haze. Sadly it’s been out of stock on Sephora for over 6 months now and makes me wonder if they are discontinuing it 😩 I’ve purchased probably 30 powders since I ran out trying to find something that works as well and just can’t find anything even close. You gave me a couple good ideas to try in this video though so I will keep hunting 😊❤️😊

[@StephanieMarie]

I wanted to recommend that one but I can't figure out what's going on with Stellar b/c their products aren't available to purchase anywhere. 😘

[@deniseb7370]

Loved the video! My oldest favorite is the Chanel Les Beiges Healthy Glow Sheer Color, then I moved on to Marc Jacobs Accomplice, and now I have started using Koh Gen Do Brightening Moisture Powder. I do also love the CT Flawless Finish and the HG Veil. On the less expensive side, I really like the Physicians Formula The Healthy Powder & PF Super CC Color-Correction + Care CC Powder. I am 51, & I have dry, mature skin.

[@makeupjunkie723]

How do you like the kgd moisture brightening powder ? Is it the one in the red compact ? I have her loose moist powder and I don’t find it to be any more moist than my hourglass loose powder. Was afraid to get the red compact. I have large pores in t zone and dry cheeks

[@deniseb7370]

Audra Schwarz Yes, it’s the one in the red compact. To me, it’s really different...I had to learn to use very little product for results. It’s so finely milled that a little goes a long way. I set my foundation, then gently buff it in before adding some bronzer, or Hourglass Ambient powder to warm up my look. It’s definitely not the compact I carry with me; it feels very delicate. I enjoy the luxury of it for sure.

[@GlitzyFritzy]

LOL you get a thumbs up from the hubs LOL He says "she looks classy" ...he also said you look rich. Of course you know I probed into how he could tell that LOL (hair, makeup, bedroom furniture, jewelry) More amazing than everything else? I guessed what you had on your eyes just by looking so doing a happy dance I'm right...I know it doesn't take much! Loved this video :D xoxo Mary

[@sherrys8321]

I really like No.7 powders I have their loose powder (thanks to you) you talk about and bought the Lift and Luminate (thanks to Jessica Braun). They work well together. She mentioned that the L&L was a dupe for the CT powder. I am just confused because L&L is a finishing powder but the CT is a setting powder.

[@Evi_Evi86]

Catrice Nude Illusion Loose Powder is also a great one for the face!

[@maryqualley6181]

Stephanie, your reviews are so thorough!! An ad with you in it (can't remember the product), came across my facebook feed. Thanks again for your great channel!

[@StephanieMarie]

What was that Mary? If you see it again let me know. Sometimes companies use our image without permission. Thank you! 💗

[@AsianPoshDorene]

Stephanie Marie probably ColorScience

[@christiwright3604]

I agree with you on the Laura Mercie powder. Lately I have very dry under eyes oily t-zone and flaky dry perimeter. Glad you mentioned the Nikkia Joy powder. I like setting my under eyes because of dark circles. How do you feel about Elf’s new hydrating concealer?

[@StephanieMarie]

I haven't tried it yet, Thanks for the reminder! :)

[@christiwright3604]

Stephanie Marie I kinda appreciate your reviews on it because our skin issues are about the same. I’m 45!

[@Jbal8924]

Thanks for rating these - this is so helpful! The new Pat McGrath Sublime Perfection Blurring UnderEye powder is amazing too!

[@StephanieMarie]

I just got this last night! 😜 💗

[@michadawn234]

Julie Balerna would you recommend it for dry, mature under eyes 👀?

[@Jbal8924]

Micha Dawn yes! I’m turning 55 and it’s really a great product. I think it’s the most finely milled powder I’ve ever tried.

[@deniseb7370]

Yes, I love it too! Just got it last week...I’m 51, with dry/mature skin - especially under my eyes. I didn’t like it as much when I applied it with a brush, so I used my fingertip instead. It goes on so subtle & light but really makes a difference!

[@michadawn234]

Denise B thanks!!!

[@ellietobe]

Cat Cosmetics has what she calls an Under Eye Brightening Powder. It comes as a 1/2oz loose, talc free, powder. The powder has a slight pinkish hue to it but it does not make your under eye look pink, just brightened. It is the best I have used. It is kind of a pain to have to use a different product for the under my eye area but it is well worth the extra step.

[@brandygofourth4305]

I've been using the Nikkia Joy powder since last spring. Enjoyed watching this - have really been wondering about some of the other powders you mentioned. Based on your descriptions of each one and which skin types they are better for (thanks for that!) I really think I'm going to continue with the Nikkia Joy. It is pretty magical.

[@Kathrynh246]

Loved this Stephanie! I just started using the primer and poreless! It’s so nice! Yes love the it bye bye too! Loved your picks Stephanie and you gave me a few new options to pick up! Thank you for all your hard work for us!🤗

[@kristineolsen477]

Great video! Please, can you show me what a "typical" amount of powder looks like compared to a "tiny" amount of powder ? I need a visual. :) Thank you! Your friend Kristine

[@lisahart1267]

Great video!!🙌🏻🙌🏻🥰🥰 I reeeaaalllyy want to try the Nikkia Joy powder!! I love my Charlotte Tilbury powder!!

[@kankan572]

I would love to see an updated video on powders! I have been thru so many 😂 the only one that works (nars light reflecting) doesn’t brighten n the ones that brighten make me look 90!

[@Fabienne2911]

Great video! I have the exact same skin type as you (combo oily and dry undereyes) and I find it so interesting that the Too Faced Born this way powder works out for your dry under eyes because for me it enhances all the dry spots under my eyes. I really want to try the Lancôme loose powder and the Nikkia Joy powder to see if it works for me both under the eyes and on the face. The Fenty pro filt’r and Coty airspun are currently the only ones that work for both my face and my under eye.

[@betsykleger4808]

I’ve already hit pan on the Charlotte Tilbury. I carry the compact with me for touch ups and it’s beautiful. PS i finally caved and went to Gorjana to but those BEAUTIFUL earrings you are wearing in this video. I saw you wear them in prior videos and just could not stop thinking about them. And I may have bought a few more pieces too (the Parker chain bracelet I’ve been eyeing for a couple of months ...😊)

[@stacydavidson1544]

If you have normal to dry skin, like I do, By Terry, Glossier Wowder, and the No. 7 powders are excellent. They are hydrating, so you don't look dry, powdery, and old. It cosmetic powders are beautiful, but do cause photo flashback, so be aware if you are having pictures taken. I also use a hydrating spray after applying powders, but be sure if you do this, that you use a bottle with a very fine mist. I purchased a bottle off amazon, and pour my hydrating spray into that bottle. I also live in a very hot, humid climate (Savvanah), so I keep my mist in the refrigerator, and I mist throughout the day to touch up, and give my face a refreshing treat.

[@amylynngriffith]

I'd asked about your necklaces before watching the entire video and wanted to apologize 😬 I do watch your videos until the end and over and over. Just felt bad for asking questions before watching the entire video🤦🏻‍♀️ Love all of your content and you seem like such a wonderful person 😊💄💋❤️

[@KaraLey98]

YES, it helps!! I rarely buy any new makeup anymore without checking to see if you have reviewed it first!!

[@StephanieMarie]

Oh wow! Thanks so much Kara! :)

[@themerz6982]

Thank you! The W3ll people is my trust worthy always works. I think the Ethereal powder is over looked. Appreciate you giving us good options! Will keep in mind.

[@tarotwithtara2022]

Great video. You're always so informative and well spoken. I truly enjoy your content.

[@joyt.3982]

Nakkia Joy smells amazing! It smells like cake to me. I want to try the Too Faced Ethereal powder. You definitely needed to try the No. 7 Lift & Laminate powder. It’s my go-to touch up powder.

[@lindaliffers9690]

I have oily textured skin and have every one of these powders except for the Well People. My go to is the IT Bye Bye Pores. I wasn't a fan of the most expensive one - By Terry, did not do much for me. I will have to break it back out and try again. Would love to hear your favorite powder brushes for face and under eye. Mine is the It Ball Wand brush!

[@erinderooy3472]

Thank you for this, it was really helpful and informative. And as a fellow Australian it's fabulous to see an Australian brand and youtuber getting some love overseas! I wish we could get No 7 in Australia but we can't and I can't find a website that will ship here. I was interested to see it was the Maybellinr pressed powder that you mentioned rather than the loose? It doesn't seem so long ago that the loose version was in everyone's favourites videos (couldn't get it in Australia at that point and still can't get the lightest shade here).

[@bellonjm07]

I love the ByTerry for my under eyes; nothing works better. No Hourglass veil loose powder? That's my fav for the face!

[@StephanieMarie]

It did zero for me for my skin type. Shine city. The glowy/radiance emphasized my under eye texture. I'm in the minority. But I tried and tried and didn't like it nearly as much as these.

[@karrinadusablon9738]

Amazing video so helpful. I always get confused between setting powder versus finishing I love powder just confused when use one versus the other

[@StephanieMarie]

I hope the linked video helped clear that up for you!

[@Chelsea-ep5lr]

You and I are the same age and have the same skin type. Can’t thank you enough for your amazing and helpful content. I took a screen shot of the product listing after watching this and can’t wait to go shopping 🛍 👍🤗

[@StephanieMarie]

I'm so glad it helped! Thank you!

[@joannogas4391]

Have you tested the L'Oreal Infallible Loose Setting Powder as a dupe for Lancome Long Time No Shine? They have identical ingredients in the same order, both with two colors. But a big difference in price. I would be interested in your thoughts.

[@leahreeves3904]

I love the Laura Mercier loose powder... I definitely do want to try the Nikkia Joy powder. For days when I don’t have time or just don’t feel like putting on foundation I really enjoy the Clinique super powder double face makeup... I keep it in my purse and always have a backup (my shade is 07 matte neutral MF-N)

[@margaretkelly7188]

Best video! I was waiting with anticipation for it! I love Hourglass veil translucent setting powder as well. I love my Charlotte Tilbury as well for my under eyes.

[@susanf270]

Sooo thourough, sooo well-spoken!! You blow the others away!! 😘

[@everydaylivingduringcancer5049]

Thank you so much for your damp sponge application for setting powder. It has been a game changer especially for my under eye. Again thank you for sharing your favorite setting powders (I am currently using RCMA). Quick question, do you still use the damp sponge application for all the setting powders you mentioned? Thank you for your videos, I learn so much.

[@StephanieMarie]

I usually do yes. Unless it's a powder like ByTerry where I need just a teeny tiny amount. Thanks Christine!

[@ScentsibleHomeWithJamie]

The Nikkia Joy powder is truly makeup life-changing!!

[@gailtrotman5256]

I have Dry/normal mature skin and have always taken care of my skin, cleansing and moisturizing. I've stayed away from powders because I'm afraid that a) it will dry b) it will reduce the dewiness that I crave for the health and appearance of my skin. I do have fine lines and frown lines between my eyes and am a porcelain skin shade. Which one of the powders would you recommend?

[@helenalovelock1030]

Omg soooo many powers. Which is just one fave for face and one for under eyes ??

[@samanthareed4185]

I hated the by terry powder translucent, I wanted to love it so much as it was very girly milled , and just had such an amazing texture. I found it darkened my concealer every single time, no matter what I did (I am very fair). I just couldn’t use it. I was hoping maybe one of the new shades wouldn’t do that.

[@beckyc.5743]

Wow Stephanie! Good job and thanks for the chart for those of us who are visual learners.

[@allisonqureshi2908]

Hi Stephanie! I love your videos and find a lot of them very helpful when trying to decide what to purchase. We are in the same age bracket so I have a lot of the same concerns as you. I wanted to ask if you have tried the ilia soft focus finishing powder?? It is talc free and I use it for setting my under eyes and love it. Hope you are having a good day!😊

[@StephanieMarie]

I haven't. Thanks for the rec!

[@daniella4889]

My partner brought back the Charlotte Tilbury powder from the U.S for me. It’s beautiful but doesn’t control oils for me at all Will use it for under eyes only

[@teeshaluv3757]

Do you like it for your under eyes. I'm thinking of buying it but it's pricey. However, the Laura Mercier one that I currently use is drying for my under eyes.

[@emmanleah1]

Honestly I’m afraid to use powder bc I’m 47 yrs old with dry skin. Will like your opinion on the Halo powder from Elf

[@StephanieMarie]

Have you watched the other video I referenced where I demo it? 😘

[@magdalenaubaldo1999]

I just discovered your chanel and OMG thanks so very much. I have learned a great deal regarding setting powders and finishing powders. Awesome videos. So far the best in this matter!

[@rhondajones5235]

Thrive powder is awesome blurring for combo/oily skin. I’m 53 and looks great undereye dry under eyes.

[@kosmosbjm]

I’m experimenting with the 1) IT Cosmetics Bye Bye Pores translucent pressed, 2) the Laura Mercier Blurring powder for under eyes, and 3) the Makeup Forever Ultra HD Microfinishing Loose Powder. I’m more interested in finding an under eye powder, but many of them seem to slightly accentuate the under eye wrinkles. I have dry skin all around, but good clear skin. Can you recommend a blurring powder for under eyes which will not accentuate wrinkles? Perhaps one of the hyaluronic formulas?

[@StephanieMarie]

Hi! I gave several recs for under eye powders in this video. In yesterday's video, I shared my HG dedicated under eye powder that I discovered after filming this setting powder video and I also talked about it in my March Monthly Favorites: kzbin.info/www/bejne/n4ialIWoa7JnfpY You can see how I apply it under the eyes here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hnOWfJ6ld5uXbKc I much prefer it with a sponge vs a brush.

[@leeannaherman8757]

Hi Stephanie. Great video. You mentioned you like IT Cosmetics Bye Bye Pressed Powder rather than loose. Can you tell me why? And is Bye Bye Pores considered a finishing powder? I use the loose powder and never tried the pressed.

[@Inismoon]

It bye bye compact amazing 👏 ✨ 🥰

[@ShivarAnne]

Laura Mercier is my favorite!!❤️

[@nicholesmith4699]

I’ve had the Nikkia Joy powder in my cart since I learned about it on your channel! I’m very similar to you in age and skin type, but large pores are what bother me the most. Would you say the NJ is the best powder to try next?

[@karincope3019]

I don’t usually wear any powders but still need to watch ❤️ I can’t find the No7 pressed powder anywhere here in my area of BC Canada . I have a mini of the Ct it’s about the size of a 50 cent piece that I got from Sephora.

[@lindaeikeland7378]

I totally love your videos!! Because for one, not only are you not in your 20's with perfectly smooth under eyes, I love how you give lots of options. Also, have you tried the Shiseido Synchro Skin Invisible Silk powder, and if so how is it for a mature somewhat dry undereye? P.S Sorry for the long comment....

[@doraduart9]

I don't like the Charlotte Tylbury's at all! It gives an airbrushed look for about 30 min, then it's gone and skin starts to shine. I have oily to combination skin and the best for me is Bye bye Pores from It cosmetics but still didn't find the right one for under eyes area. Didn't like Laura Mercier's neither. I just ordered the Nikkia Joy, looking forward to trying it.

[@muneeraalmarzooqi4074]

Hi there gorgeous! Have you tried the Huda beauty easy bake? I’ve heard so many people rave about it and prefer it more than the laura mercier one. I would love to hear your opinion about it specially that I have the same skin type as you. Thank you so much for this great video 🙏🏻❤️

[@gailviel7498]

Thank you for the video! I have tried most of those powders, but one of my absolute favorites is the Becca under eye brightening setting powder. I keep going back to that one! Have you tried that one?

[@leawelborn3736]

I love that Lancôme powder too! Quick question- the CT eyes to mesmerize- what’s your must have shade? Is Marie Antoinette similar to the Giorgio Armani liquid shadow in cold copper?

[@Lighthouse1852]

Why would you call the By Terry powder infamous? Why would it have a bad reputation? I'm confused. Some people seem to love it, or the tinted versions. I have been curious. I'm still in search of a favorite. On me, Mercier's OK but not stellar. Color FX , same. Hourglass Ambient powders work for some applications better than others. Didn't like Tilbury's loose powder on myself, but haven't tried their pressed compact version yet. I'm afraid I'll like it, since it's the most expensive per oz. I've heard good things about Chanel's loose powder, and the Hourglass loose powder's on my list. Thank you for giving some useful clarification on who would most enjoy each of these powders you mention, that's very helpful in a confusing, oversaturated environment.

I misspoke. Sorry.

​@@StephanieMarie Whew. Glad to hear it. It was too expensive to try unless it's 99% sure to work. On my short list. Great video, very useful to have side by side comparisons in a single place. You've produced such well made pieces for such a long time, I don't understand when you have time to breathe.

I love the no 7 pressed Lift and Luminate powder. Have you tried Thrive's loose powder? I love using that with a damp beautyblender.

A few of my favorite but CT, Laura Mercier love it for so long. It cosmetic so chalky horrible flash back no no for me. Not even for mature skin I ever recommend, I think one of the worst list for me, and my clients. Another one I like at lot Is Hourglass really nice and talc free. By Terry good choice too. 👏

Thank you, Stephanie, for this video! I've never really understood powders, until I've watched your videos. Do you use the same brush for setting powder & finishing powder or do you use different brushes? Additionally, what shape of brush(es) do you use for powders?

[@brookspa94]

Stephanie, I too would REALLY like to know your answer to this question. Thank You!

[@StephanieMarie]

Hi! I show both brushes and give options for both in the linked how to apply setting powder and finishing powder video! I’ll also be doing a brush video soon. 😘

[@anneparadeza5945]

I am desperate for this info. Of course I love your rec’s!!

[@ryanmae808]

I will say for a talc free option with awesome blurring affects - Lawless Beauty powder!

[@janeblankenship6076]

Your videos are super informative! You are first one I have ever heard give a reason to avoid parabens, etc. I didn't know it caused inflammation.

[@StephanieMarie]

Thank you so much! 😘

Charolett Tilbury is a great powder. I like Bareminerals and No.7 . Have a great day...❌✖❌

[@tinakaminsky3477]

Great video!!! Lots of my current favorites. I really like physicians formula Healty presses powder but I believe it is discontinued

[@tammyjokerney4152]

Have you ever tried the Becca Hydra mist? I have enjoyed this one lately.
