Artdeco Setting powder compact

I might just found my new best friend! After a long (and quite expensive) search for something that would truly help to mattify my T-zone I finally discovered powder that actually works for almost whole work day. I’m talking about compact setting powder from Artdeco. It is transparent finishing powder, which doesn’t give scary ghost-like look, but more polished and silky doll face. My other mattifying powder ˝Sexy mama˝ from The Balm has a claim that is transparent, but it shows up orangey and truly noticeable on me. It is good, but cakey and you really need a light hand with application.



I discovered trough the years that face products from Artdeco are truly very good. All of them are made in Germany, so you need to pay a little bit more, but are trusty and high quality.


As I said powder is hardly visible if any, still I believe you can overreact with application. It doesn’t contain oils, so it’s very appropriate for oily and sensitive skin. Manufacturer says that it won’t mess your foundation, I use it on its own and to set my under eye concelaer. It has no smell, after opening its recommended to use it within a year. Powder comes in standard and firm plastic, refillable compact case which includes 7g of product. There’s a mirror inside, applicator is not included. Powder is finely milled and suppose to give you airbrushed effect. I truly don’t have any negative things to say about it, except the price. It is expensive for a drugstore brand as most products from Artdeco are, it costs almost 23€.



I currently apply it with a big fluffy brush from Ebelin, which is a bit too big, but powder still does a wonderful job.
