Translucent Loose Setting Powder

Translucent Loose Setting Powder locks in makeup for long-lasting wear, without adding weight or texture.

This bestseller creates a modern, matte finish with a touch of sheer coverage, while it absorbs oil and reduces shine all day.

The pros know why it's their favorite: the powder is a little denser than an average powder, providing super smooth, even application and blending. This no-flashback formula means you'll look great in photos, and it creates a soft-focus effect to subtly blur the look of fine lines and imperfections. It will not settle into fine lines or pores and never looks cakey. These truly translucent shades work on all skin tones—from the fairest to the deepest.

The just-released, Translucent Medium Deep shade was designed to be completely translucent on medium-deep to the deepest skin tones, ensuring that every skin tone gets a perfectly flawless, translucent finish.

Choose how to set your makeup

Want a spray, loose translucent powder or a compact mattifying powder? All of the Sephora Collection makeup setting products work great and give you a natural finish.

Choose the one you like best for a look that lasts all day long. Use the Loose Setting Powder for a matte finish.

When should the translucent loose powder be applied?

Use the loose translucent powder as a finishing touch after putting on makeup or for a touch-up during the day to mattify your skin and set makeup.

What is the right way to apply loose transparent setting powder?

For a natural look, use a Sephora Collection 03 Powder Brush to pick up powder and apply a light dusting, then blend outward.

To avoid clumping, tap the brush after dipping in powder to remove excess. For custom coverage, dip a powder puff or sponge into the loose translucent powder and apply it with light pressure to the areas you want to cover, then blend for an even complexion.

Which areas should be targeted?

To avoid shine in certain areas, apply the loose mattifying powder to your T-zone: forehead, nose and chin.

You can also improve your makeup’s hold by applying Sephora Collection loose matte setting powder in areas that tend to develop creases during the day (below your eyes and around your lips). Press lightly in this area, then remove excess.
