I’m 56 and have tried all the expensive loose powders – the best one for ageing skin is £4
As our skin matures, it’s important to find the right products so our makeup doesn’t make us look even older.
There’s nothing more annoying than spending precious time on a glamorous look, only to have our powder sink into every little line.
Luckily for us, a 56-year-old claims she’s found the best lightweight product to seal in your foundation without making your face look older.
The best part? It’s only £4.
The powder in question is the Natural Collection Setting Powder and Pen Georgios took to Instagram to express her love for it.
“I’m 56 and I’ve used every loose powder on the market, in every price range,” she said.
“And Natural Collection powder is absolutely fantastic.”
It is available in three shades: sheer, light to medium and medium to dark.
“This lightweight setting powder is made with natural mica and gives you a soft finish,” say Boots bosses.
“This soft, silky texture blends effortlessly and sets your makeup for up to eight hours.
“At Natural Collection we believe in beauty made simple and sustainable.
“We believe in doing good to our planet and people by creating natural, vegan products that are never tested on animals.”
When it comes to creating a flawless makeup look, loose powder is often the unsung hero.
Foundations and concealers get most of the attention, but it’s the fine granules that keep your glamorous face looking beautiful all day long.
Loose powder is a finely milled powder that, unlike pressed powder, is free-flowing and light in texture.
Its main purpose is to set makeup, keep foundation and concealer in place, and reduce shine by absorbing excess oil.
Thanks to its ultra-light formula, loose powder provides a smooth, matte finish without clumping or feeling heavy on the skin.
Many loose powders are enriched with light-reflecting particles that help to blur imperfections.
This gives the skin a soft, airbrushed effect, which is ideal for making your face look years younger.
Whether you want a matte finish, want to set your makeup for the day, or want to look camera-ready, a good loose powder can be your secret weapon.
