Product Information

Full details

The Clinique Stay Matte Blotting Powder is an ideal solution for individuals with oily or combination skin looking to manage midday shine without heavy coverage. This lightweight, universal powder absorbs excess sebum instantly to provide a fresh, matte finish that remains invisible on the skin. While it excels at touch-ups and maintaining a polished complexion, users should note that its sheer formula is designed for oil control rather than concealing deep imperfections or providing significant buildable coverage.

FAQs

Does this powder provide color coverage?

No, this is a universal, invisible blotting powder designed to control shine without adding pigment or color to the skin.

Can I use this over liquid foundation?

Yes, it is perfectly compatible with liquid foundations. Apply it after your foundation is set to lock in your look and remove shine.

Is this suitable for dry skin?

It is primarily formulated for oily or combination skin. Those with dry skin may find it emphasizes dry patches if applied in excess.

How often should I reapply?

Reapplication depends on your skin type and environment. Use it whenever you notice unwanted shine reappearing throughout the day.

Will this clog my pores?

The formula is non-comedogenic, meaning it is specifically designed to be less likely to clog pores compared to heavy, traditional powders.

Troubleshooting

Powder appearing 'ashy' on skin

You may be applying too much product at once. Use a lighter hand and press a smaller amount into the skin to maintain invisibility.

Product hardens on the surface

Oil transfer from brushes or sponges can create a hard layer. Gently scrape off the top layer with a clean tissue or cosmetic wand to reveal fresh powder.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  • Setup: No special setup is required. Simply open the compact and ensure your skin is dry before application.
  • Compatibility: This product is compatible with most liquid, cream, and mineral foundations. It works best when applied after your foundation has fully set.
