PalladioRice Powder, Translucent, Loose Setting Powder, Absorbs Oil, Leaves Face Looking and Feeling Smooth, Helps Makeup Last Longer For a Flawless, Fresh Look

I tried this on a whim because I could no longer afford the Clinique loose powder that I have used for years. I was so pleasantly surprised by how much I love this powder. Don't let the price fool you. You can get great quality products for a lot less than than you pay for the department store brands. I wear makeup about 4 times a week and it has taken me months to get through even one container....despite it being tiny. It is very lightweight and gives a matte oil free finish, which I love. It did not cause any type of skin issues or breakouts either. It has no smell, which I also love. Anyway, if you have oily skin and want a shine free look, give this rice powder a try.

As someone with deep smile lines + under eye fine lines (can’t afford my usual Botox at the moment) and severely combination to oily skin, I do not have the luxury of forgoing setting powder. If I don’t use setting powder, my face is a slippery, creasing disaster. Some of my HG powders include Huda Beauty Easy Bake, Pacifica Cherry Matte, Nars Translucent Crystal powder loose + pressed versions, and IT Cosmetics Bye Bye Pores Loose Powder (gorgeous but causes horrific flashback, full on Flashback Mary soo not flash friendly).I need to bake every time I wear foundation/concealer but what happens is I end up dehydrating my skin so bad that when I smile I form a bunch of fine lines that are not normally there. I can’t win. While my usually faves are $25+ (except one that is $12) they all have their issues so I’m constantly searching; now enter this Palladio rice powder.As a student, I’m poor to say the least but I’ll beg, borrow, and steal to cop any makeup that I need - regardless of that notion, it hurts to shell out tons of money that I don’t have for good makeup so when I saw $8.99 for a setting powder I became immediately intrigued. I’m familiar with rice powder and the benefits of using rice starch in makeup for its amazing oil absorbing capabilities so I felt confident in the product’s claims regarding its efficacy. I used it today and OMG, this is perhaps my new HG powder.Whenever I use setting powder, the severity/longevity of wear before my foundation forms creases determines my liking for it. One of my favorite foundations, IT CC cream, is one of the worst offending, easily creasing products on my skin because of its emollience - something remedied little by even baking. When I got this in the mail today I immediately ripped it open and started doing my makeup with IT CC cream, which to me, is the ultimate test of a powders setting capability. I was seriously so blown away. (PS I’m fair, so I used the shade translucent and the results really shocked me.)Usually as soon as I finish my makeup, ask anyone who lives with me, I will not SMILE at all until I’m at my destination as to preserve my look from creasing (if I’m driving, I’ll also blast the AC on my face to keep my skin matte too, how pitiful right?) In general, as soon as I have any movement on my face, it’s over within minutes no matter how sheer my application is. I used IT CC cream + IT concealer (super thick) and set it with this rice powder with 0 expectations, and well, I forgot all about it. I got a coffee, made a few long, hysterical phone calls, and even ate 20 blazin’ wings from BWW to only realize in my cars mirror after the fact that my makeup WAS STILL FLAWLESS, EVEN IN 95° HEAT!! I did have super super super faint lines in my smile lines but it disappeared the second I tapped it out with my fingers. UGH, Where has this been my whole life? It’s super mattifying and it doesn’t dry your skin! It does smell like flowery/floral something mixed with baby powder scent and it lingers for a very short period. I’m so hooked on this, I’m so glad it so affordable, truly a great product! I highly recommend this to anyone who struggles with similar skin/makeup issues.

Why in the world would they package this in a square container with a top and bottom that looks like you should just be able to lift the top off, only to find out you can't? Seriously, I wasted at least fifteen minutes trying to get it open before finding out that this square container actually needs to be unscrewed as though it had a round top. Very confusing design and it's almost like they did it to irritate a first-time buyer.

Me encanta 🫶🏼 este porque me queda super bien

esos polvo me encantan hacen su función

It looks nice, but it STINKS.

This powder is so amazing I’m so surprised at how cheap it is and how good it is. The formula is incredibly soft and matte, it blocks oily skin and decreases your pore size. It’s great at setting concealer too you don’t even need a lot of the product to set makeup since the powder itself is great.

I love this powder. I struggle with an oily nose and makeup running off my face so I often have to powder throughout the day with normal over counter products. With this powder I feel like it lasts all day without needing to reapply. This powder also makes my skin feel super soft and silky especially when combined with the rice primer. I was using another powder that has been my favorite for a long time but this one works better with the specific combination of primer and foundation I'm currently using.
