Rimmel London Lasting Pressed Transparent Reviews Summary

Texture & Application

Pros:

• "It's a great powder and doesn't get cakey on the skin."
• "For my oily, Asian skin complex (medium beige), this powder works wonderfully!"
• "This powder applies thick however it doesn't leave your skin looking caked."
• "It looks like mineral powder, controls oil, and true to color."
• "Wore it all day in the sun and it did not budge, looked exactly the same as when I left the house Couldn't be happier."
• "It’s a quality powder that’s dirt cheap."
• "It covers well... Its invisible and looks natural."

Cons:

• "I don't like the cheap plastic screw top at all."
• "Was not the product I ordered."
• "The original packaging wasn't intact."
• "I don't know what this is but it does not even stick to my face."
• "The powder is really hard to transfer it looks like you have applied absolutely nothing."
• "It can be quite heavy on the face and sometimes leaves you looking a little caked up, you need to be very careful with how much you use."
• "After few hours, especially when face starts to sweat, my whole face gets cakey!"

Packaging & Price

Pros:

• "I'm really satisfied with this, and would definitely make this my main compact powder."
• "I got 2 for something i would pay for one at Cvs or Walmart."
• "This will forever be my go to matte powder... Super lightweight and lasts!"
• "While it's WAY more expensive (double) online than in store I was willing to pay because I loved the product that much."
• "Don't be put off by the low price! I *highly* recommend this surprisingly inexpensive powder as easily better than powders in the $45 range!"
• "Excellent price for the amount you get and you don’t need to use much and it last all day."
• "The price is very reasonable, it doesn't break the bank."

Cons:

• "The only thing I don’t like is that it doesn’t come with a “puff”."
• "Why a matte powder would have a shimmer is beyond me."
• "However, there is NO APPLICATOR! I ended up having to buy a pack to keep one in there, because there was no other way to use it on the go."
• "The plastic cover arrived cracked."
• "This product arrived on time, was the right shade and seems authentic but disappointingly... it arrived without packaging/a safety seal, has a small crack down the side of the lid and with a couple chips in the makeup palette."
• "The lid is cracked and chipped."
• "But mine came with the seal broken and a finger print... I’ll just try to find it in store next time lol."

Longevity & Skin Suitability

Pros:

• "It stays on for a good 4ish hours, less if I’m sweaty."
• "I am giving this product five stars because it is awesome for this price, better than some high end brands."
• "I'm quite impressed with the quality. I'm NOT thrilled with the packaging."
• "I have quite a tanned olive skin and I got the colour 004 sandstorm. It may look lighter in the packaging but it blends in very well and I think suits my skin tone."
• "The texture is not at all chalk or brick like..its smooth n nice."
• "I can use this and skip foundation all together most days."
• "It sets my concealer ALL day and for the price it really can’t be beat."

Cons:

• "I am not the palest-maybe the 2nd palest (wnw Shell ivory) and this made my concealer darker than my foundation."
• "I was unaware that this makeup is scented and is too strong for me that it gives me a headache."
• "I have medium-brown, olive skin tone and at first I got the buff beige but it was too light."
• "Its cheap, got a good amount in the compact, and its easy to apply. Issues i have found is that the pressed powder can break within very easily."
• "Every single case I've bought has cracked usually breaking the powder."
• "Really good powder, arrived packaged well."
• "Many makeup YouTubers also love this product, if that helps you at all."
