Finishing Powders/Pressed Powders are a essential makeup item for setting-in your makeup and prevent your foundation, concealer & cream blushers/bronzers from fading throughout the day. It has to layer well, gives an even coverage and keep your face shine-free for a long time. I prefer transparent powders and this one interested me the moment I saw it. Sheer finishing powders works the best for setting your makeup and for those like me who don’t like additional coverage which might make the foundation/base makeup look heavy.
M·A·C X CHRIS CHANG PREP + PRIME TRANSPARENT FINISHING PRESSED POWDER is a silky, colourless finishing powder for all skin tones that reduces shine. Wear over makeup or on its own. Available in a pressed compact for portability. Features uniquely designed packaging.
