Maybelline Matte Maker Mattifying Powder Review

After my last powder ran out, i started to look for a new powder that would help tame my oily skin whilst giving me a natural finish with reasonable coverage. I saw this powder and decided to give it a try as I've used Maybelline powders in the past and they've been pretty good. I use a base of liquid foundation mixed with equal parts face cream. This gives me a protective and moisturizing layer for my skin whilst offering a small amount of coverage. I then proceeded to apply my powder foundation using a large powder brush ( Barbara Daly- from Tesco, and it's pretty good). I was surprised by the coverage offered as it was more than i'd expected. The colour pigment was good and the powder felt light on my skin and not cakey. It also was consistent across my face and didn't cling to dry or oily patches. I would definitely recommend this powder as a top foundation layer for a dainty and natural look, offering  reasonable coverage and good quality colour. I would also recommend applying with a powder brush to achieve an even finish but this powder can also be used to touch up around eyes or lips after make up has been applied. This makes it versatile and it's also very affordable at only £3.99 at superdrug or boots. Definitely recommend and i will be buying this product again.
