During the warmer months most of us tend to need a little extra help keeping our daily makeup in place. Reapplying powder throughout the day can leave skin looking cakey and sometimes make skin look worse. A product that helps me avoid this is MAC Blot Powder. This product is very light on the skin and it easily soaks up extra oils on your face in the areas you need it while still leaving your skin looking finished throughout the day.
Mac's website describes this product as " A unique pressed powder designed primarily to provide shine control without adding any noticeable colour or texture. Sets foundation, finishes faces. For use in professional situations and for frequent touch-ups. Blot Powder contains Mica and Silica to adsorb excess oils and reduce shine on the skin's surface. Can be applied with the puff that comes in the compact or with a powder brush. "
This product comes in five easy to match shades, you can pick it up online or at your local mac store or department store counter, I got mine at Sunvalley Mall in Concord, CA. Retail price is $22.00
If you are looking for a budget friendly fix, check out L'Oreal Bare Naturale Mineral Powder. I find this to light coverage for normal morning application but works great mid day to soak up the extra oils. Pick it up at your local drugstore or a Ulta near you. Price ranges from $6.50- $7.50.
