Banish midday shine and achieve a beautifully refined skin texture with the iconic, long-wearing makeup engineering of the Rimmel London Stay Matte Pressed Powder. Specially formulated to provide a smooth, oil-controlling matte screen without causing the typical heavy caking, mask-like stiffness, or severe cracking associated with traditional dense compact powders, this micro-milled pressed powder wraps your skin canvas in lightweight comfort. By pairing oil-absorbing mineral texturizers with a soft-focus blurring screen, it sets liquid bases and unifies skin tone seamlessly. The adaptive shade range—featuring the legendary translucent options—ensures a natural finish, keeping your face looking continuously fresh, touchably smooth, and perfectly balanced without triggering standard product dragging.

5-Hour Shine Defiance & Soft-Focus Complexion Perfecting

Advanced Oil-Control Mineral Architecture

At the heart of this cult-favorite pressed powder is an innovative, jet-milled mineral network designed to target excess surface sebum without flattening your natural skin dimension. Rather than building up a thick, suffocating layer or settling rigidly inside fine facial lines, the featherweight particles lay evenly across your natural skin contours. This advanced technology absorbs oil plugs on contact, effortlessly blurring away the appearance of enlarged pores, micro-wrinkles, and minor skin imperfections to deliver an immaculate, smooth matte texture.

Weightless Setting Performance & All-Day Freshness Guard

Rather than stripping away your skin's protective lipid layer or causing uncomfortable, dry post-application scaling, this clean compact balances surface oils while keeping underlying moisture levels fully intact. The advanced formula functions dynamically to lock down your makeup: sweep it on lightly with a fluffy brush to act as a weightless finishing veil over liquid foundations, or tap it onto shine-prone areas during the day to instantly refresh your base. It ensures your makeup stays firmly fixed, remaining vibrant and fresh from morning to night.

Flawless Portable Touch-Ups: Built for on-the-go lifestyle demands, this lightweight compact fits perfectly into any handbag, vanity, or travel pouch. The smooth pressed cake allows for clean, precise, and effortless midday mattifying touch-ups, completely eliminating messy loose powder spills or wasteful cosmetic fallout.

Skin Type All skin types, including dry, normal, combination, oily, and sensitive skin profiles looking for a long-wearing, oil-controlling, and non-drying matte powder finish.

Concerns Solved Midday facial shine, excess surface sebum plugs, melting or shifting base makeup, large visible pores, and heavy cosmetic caking.

Texture An ultra-fine, smooth, and compact pressed powder consistency that glides onto the skin canvas easily, leaving a velvety, weightless, and completely breathable matte texture.

Usage Time Optimized for morning (AM) cosmetics application as your baseline locking step, or throughout the day whenever quick mattifying touch-ups are required.

Compatible Routines Fits perfectly into any casual or full-glam cosmetics sequence. Sweep a large, fluffy powder brush into the compact, tap away the excess dust, and dust it lightly across your T-zone right after applying your favorite liquid foundations and concealers to set your base. For targeted midday touch-ups, gently pat the powder onto oily spots with a small brush or powder puff. Pairs seamlessly with the full line of Rimmel London foundations.

Who Should Avoid It

• Active Open Dermal Cracking: Avoid pressing pressed powders aggressively over open scratches, deep unhealed facial wounds, or raw bleeding blemishes until the surface tissue has completely closed.
