Most powders either leave you looking chalky or melt away by midday. Rimmel London Stay Matte Pressed Powder delivers reliable shine control while still looking like real skin. It locks in your base and takes down unwanted shine without a heavy, powdery build-up.

Talc and mica help to mattify and diffuse light, softening the appearance of pores and fine lines. Dimethicone and magnesium stearate give the powder slip and adherence, so it glides on smoothly and grips the skin. Vitamin E (tocopheryl acetate), aloe barbadensis leaf extract and coconut oil contribute comforting, conditioning care during wear.

The pressed texture is silky and finely milled, picking up easily on a brush or puff with minimal fallout. On the skin, it feels lightweight and breathable, delivering a natural matte finish rather than a dry, mask-like effect. Built in thin layers, it resists caking and helps complexion products look freshly applied for longer.

Use it to set foundation, tone down shine on bare skin or for quick touch-ups throughout the day. Lightly dust where you tend to get oily, pressing more firmly only where you need extra staying power. The compact format makes on-the-go shine control straightforward and discreet.

Pro Tips

• Set under-eye concealer with a very small amount of powder on a small, soft brush to help prevent creasing.
• For targeted shine control, apply using a clean puff or sponge, pressing rather than dragging over the skin.
• If you prefer a softer finish, mist the face lightly with setting spray after powder to meld the layers together.
• Use a light hand and build gradually to avoid over-powdering and to maintain a natural-looking finish.
