#MAC BLOT POWDER MEDIUM DARK SKIN#

I bought this in medium/dark despite being very pale because I often find blotting powders to be too pale and then I look like a ghost. Additionally it does not look even a little bit cakey, even with heavy application (hard to do with such a fine, pressed powder – unlike many other blotting products).Īs I apply my makeup quite heavily (to cover scars and hyper-pigmentation) it often rubbed off on clothes when I hugged people or guys faces if I kissed them (clearly not ideal), this prevented any noticeable transferring of my makeup, and with retouching even felt matte and non-tacky when touching my face.

Repeated application is definitely needed (for me at least anyway) however even without reapplication i’m left with only a dewy look rather than an oil slick.

But I would recommend others to try 🙂įirstly I really like this product, I have acne prone skin that looks oily very quickly and this helps to mattify my skin throughout the day. I currently have 4 setting powders so repurchasing any anytime soon won’t be a problem. I would probably repurchase if there weren’t so many options out in the market. Overall, I think this is a good pressed powder. Occasionally I would blot again throughout the day, but it is well controlled I find. This is mainly my travel pressed powder and it does hold my oiliness at bay. Didn’t notice any odd colors and/or oxidation with the product. It does mattify the face and has not caused any breakouts on my face. I use this as a setting powder over my makeup. Matte black snap with a mirror at the top and comes with a cushion pad to apply the product (which I don’t use). But anyway, this product comes in a standard MAC package. I’m thinking their shade names are not quite accurate as I’m usually a light medium or a medium. Surprisingly, for being NC30-35, they call this shade Medium Dark which matches. I bought this pressed powder in Medium Dark about 2 years ago.
