Struggling with makeup melting or looking shiny in the Mauritian heat? This finely-milled loose powder is your solution for a fresh, soft-matte look that lasts all day without feeling heavy or dry.

• Finish: Soft, natural matte with a blurring effect.
• Texture: Silky, lightweight, and incredibly fine powder.
• Best For: Normal, Combination, and Oily skin types.
• Core Function: Sets liquid makeup (foundation, cushion, concealer) and controls excess oil for extended wear.

1. Base Makeup: Apply your daily sunscreen, followed by foundation or BB cream.
2. Set with [THIS PRODUCT]: Dip the included puff into the powder, tap off any excess, and gently press and roll onto your skin, focusing on the T-zone.
3. Finish: Brush off any excess with a clean, fluffy brush for a seamless finish.

Note: This powder sets your makeup. It's the final step for your base, applied before powder blush or bronzer.

Setting powder is the last step of your base makeup routine to lock everything in place.

• Step 1: Skincare - Complete your usual morning skincare routine (toner, serum, moisturiser).
• Step 2: Sunscreen - Apply a generous amount of SPF 30+ and wait 1-2 minutes for it to set.
• Step 3: Primer/Base (Optional) - Apply a primer if you use one.
• Step 4: Foundation/Cushion - Apply your liquid or cream complexion makeup.
• Step 5: [THIS PRODUCT] - Gently press the powder over your base to set it for the day.

Daily Use — AM:

• Amount: A light dusting is all you need. Dip the puff, tap off the excess on the back of your hand, then apply. Using too much can look cakey.
• Apply to: Entire face, or just on oil-prone areas like the T-zone (forehead, nose, chin) and under the eyes to set concealer.
• Method (Puff): Gently press and roll the puff onto the skin. This pushes the powder into the makeup without disturbing the foundation underneath.
• Method (Brush): For a lighter, more natural finish, use a large, fluffy powder brush. Swirl it in the cap, tap off excess, and sweep lightly across the face.

If-This / Then-That:

• If you have a very oily T-zone: Try the "baking" technique. Apply a thicker layer of powder under the eyes and on your T-zone, let it sit for 5-10 minutes, then gently sweep away the excess with a brush.
• If you have dry skin: Use a brush instead of the puff and apply only a very sheer layer to the T-zone, avoiding dry patches.
• If you're worried about flashback in photos: Use a light hand and a brush. Flashback is often caused by applying too much powder. Shade #002 is less likely to cause flashback than the brightening #001.

• Immediately: Your skin will look smoother, with a soft-matte, blurred finish. Liquid makeup will be set in place, feeling non-tacky to the touch. Any excess shine is instantly reduced.
• Throughout the Day: Makeup wear-time is significantly extended. You should notice less oil breaking through, especially in your T-zone. Your base makeup will be less prone to creasing or transferring.
• 4-8+ Weeks: With consistent use, you may notice your makeup routine is more reliable, holding up better against heat and humidity without needing constant touch-ups.

• Works Well With: Liquid foundations, BB/CC creams, cushions, concealers, and cream blushes (apply powder after cream blush to set it). It layers beautifully over most sunscreens after they have dried down.
• Use Carefully With: Very dewy or tacky primers and foundations. Ensure your base is not too wet before applying the powder to avoid patchiness or pilling. Give your liquid layers a minute to set before applying the powder.
• Avoid On: This is a finishing powder, so it should be the last step for your base. Do not apply liquid or cream products on top of it, as this can cause a cakey, uneven texture.

• Oily Skin: Excellent. This powder provides effective oil control and a matte finish that helps manage shine throughout the day.
• Combination Skin: Very good. Perfect for setting the T-zone while being lightweight enough not to over-dry normal or slightly dry cheek areas.
• Normal Skin: Good. Use a light dusting to set makeup for a flawless, long-lasting finish.
• Dry Skin: Use with caution. While reviews suggest it's not overly drying, those with very dry or flaky skin should use a minimal amount with a fluffy brush, focusing only where needed. A hydrating setting spray can be used afterwards to restore a skin-like finish.

• Excess Shine & Oiliness: Instantly mattifies the skin and absorbs excess sebum.
• Poor Makeup Longevity: Sets makeup to prevent it from sliding, creasing, or fading in heat and humidity.
• Visible Pores & Uneven Texture: The fine particles create a soft-focus effect that blurs the appearance of pores and fine lines.
• Transfer & Mask-Rub: Helps reduce the amount of makeup that transfers onto clothing or face masks.

• MFDS Class: General Cosmetic. This product is not classified as a Functional Cosmetic by the South Korean Ministry of Food and Drug Safety (MFDS, formerly KFDA).
• Medical Disclaimer: This product is a cosmetic for setting makeup and controlling oil. It is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.

Key Ingredients Explained:

• Silica: A mineral powder that is excellent at absorbing excess oil and sweat, giving the skin a smooth, matte finish and a soft-focus effect that blurs pores.
• Mica: A mineral that adds a subtle, natural-looking radiance and a silky feel to the powder, preventing it from looking flat or chalky.
• Dimethicone: A silicone that helps create a smooth, velvety texture, allowing the powder to glide onto the skin and fill in the look of fine lines without settling.

Full INCI List:

Silica, Mica (CI 77019), Dimethicone, Macadamia Ternifolia Seed Oil, Phenyl Trimethicone, Caprylyl Glycol, Ethylhexylglycerin, Glyceryl Caprylate, Tocopherol, Tin Oxide (CI 77861), Methicone, Fragrance, Linalool, Limonene, Geraniol, Butylphenyl Methylpropional, Titanium Dioxide (CI 77891).

• Fragrance Status: Contains added fragrance.
• Scent Profile: Users describe a very light, pleasant cosmetic scent. Intensity: 1/5.
• Declared EU Allergens: The formula contains several components of fragrance that are classified as potential allergens under EU regulations. A patch test is advised if you have known fragrance sensitivities.
  • Linalool
  • Limonene
  • Geraniol
  • Butylphenyl Methylpropional (Lilial)

• For external use only. Avoid contact with eyes.
• Discontinue use and consult a doctor if a rash, swelling, or itching occurs.
• Do not apply to broken, irritated, or eczematous skin.
• Keep out of reach of children.

Patch Test Protocol: Before first use, apply a small amount of the powder to a discreet area, such as behind the ear or on the jawline. Wait 24-48 hours to check for any signs of irritation. If you have highly sensitive skin, re-check at 72 hours. If irritation occurs, do not use the product.

• Texture: Extremely fine, silky, and lightweight powder.
• Finish: Soft-focus, natural matte. Blurs imperfections without looking heavy or cakey.
• Scent: Light, fresh cosmetic fragrance.
• Fungal Acne (Malassezia Folliculitis) Compatibility: Contains Macadamia Ternifolia Seed Oil, which can be a potential trigger for fungal acne in highly sensitive individuals. Individual responses may vary; a patch test is recommended for those with FA-prone skin.

• Issue: Powder looks cakey or patchy.
  • Fix: You may be applying too much powder or applying it over a base that is too wet. Use a smaller amount, tap off all excess from your puff or brush, and wait a minute for your foundation to set before powdering.
• Issue: Flashback in photos (a white cast under flash photography).
  • Fix: This is often caused by using too much powder, especially powders containing silica or titanium dioxide. Apply with a light hand using a fluffy brush instead of pressing it in with a puff. Shade #002 is generally safer for photos than the brightening #001.
• Issue: Pilling (product rolling up into little balls).
  • Fix: Pilling is usually caused by incompatible layers underneath. Ensure your moisturiser, sunscreen, and primer are fully absorbed before applying foundation. Applying powder too soon on a tacky base can also cause this.

Its lightweight feel and excellent oil-absorbing properties help keep your makeup in place and prevent a shiny or greasy appearance throughout the day.

• A YesStyle customer review (2024-05) praised its texture, stating, "The powder is extremely fine and makes my skin look airbrushed. It doesn't cling to my dry patches and keeps my T-zone matte for hours."
• On Reddit's r/AsianBeauty (thread 2023-11), a user commented that it feels more hydrating than other popular oil-control powders. They noted it sets makeup beautifully without looking flat or dulling their foundation's glow too much.
• A fair caveat from another YesStyle review (2024-02) mentioned the included puff. While soft, they found it "a bit small for applying to the whole face" and preferred using their own powder brush for a more even application.

Does this powder cause flashback in photos?

Like many setting powders containing silica, it can potentially cause a slight white cast under strong flash photography if applied heavily. For photos, use a light hand with a brush instead of a puff. Shade #002 (Natural) is generally a safer option than #001 (Brightening) to avoid flashback.

What is the difference between shade #001 and #002?

#001 has a brightening, pink-toned beige hue designed to visibly tone up and clarify the complexion. #002 is a more neutral, natural beige that provides a subtle, healthy finish without altering your foundation colour significantly.

Can I use this powder for "baking" my makeup?

Yes, its fine, silky texture is well-suited for the baking technique to set concealer and control oil in specific areas like under the eyes and on the T-zone.

Is this suitable for very dry skin?

It can be. Many users with dry skin have found it non-drying when applied lightly. However, if your skin is prone to flaking, a hydrating setting spray might be a better option, or you can use this powder very sparingly only where needed.

Best For: Individuals with normal to oily skin looking for a high-quality, lightweight powder to set makeup and control shine without a heavy or cakey feel.
