This bareMinerals setting powder extends your makeup wear and reduces the appearance of pores and fine lines. Just apply it on over your concealer or foundation, let it set and blend it in, then watch it work its magic.

This powder is vegan and talc free, and it works on all skin types, including sensitive, oily, dry and acne-prone skin. It’s infused with corn starch and iron oxides to absorb oil, and the translucent finish won’t make your face look too powdery or cakey.

Makeup enthusiasts of all ages love how well this powder seamlessly blends into their skin. “Now that I’m in my 40s, finding a powder that does not make my skin look insanely textured with pores has been difficult,” says one Amazon reviewer. “This [bareMinerals powder] is so silky and minimizes my pores for hours. It makes me actually like the way my skin looks again. Bonus, it’s talc free! Love it!”

So, if you’re ready to transform your makeup from dull to flawless, give this bareMinerals setting powder a try. It’s the ultimate pick for a picture-perfect makeup look that lasts all day.
