Product Review: Neutrogena Loose Setting PowderI’ve been using the Neutrogena Loose Setting Powder for the past few years, and it has quickly become a staple in my makeup routine. This powder delivers exactly what it promises: a smooth, blurred finish that sets makeup beautifully without making the skin look dry or cakey.The texture is ultra-fine and lightweight, which makes application effortless. It blends seamlessly over foundation and concealer, and does a great job of minimizing the appearance of pores and fine lines. I especially appreciate how it controls shine in my T-zone throughout the day without dulling the natural glow of my skin.One standout feature is how it performs under different lighting—no flashback in photos and no heavy residue in natural light. It’s also incredibly buildable, so whether you want a light dusting or full oil-control, it adapts well.As someone with combination skin, I’ve found this powder to be long-wearing and comfortable. It doesn't settle into creases or oxidize, and it keeps my makeup looking fresh for hours.Pros:Silky, weightless formulaBlurs imperfections without drynessLong-lasting oil controlNo flashback in photosSuitable for all skin typesCons:Slightly messy packaging (as with most loose powders)Light fragrance may not be ideal for sensitive skinOverall Rating: ★★★★☆ (4.5/5)Highly recommend for anyone looking for a reliable, high-performance setting powder. It’s a great choice for both everyday wear and special occasions.

This is my favorite makeup. I have always had a hard time finding one that lasts most of the day. I have been using this for over a year now it covers so well and lasts most of the day. It is lightweight and makes my skin tone even with out the cakeiness I get with other products.. suffer from rosacea. It also helps with the oily look of my skin as well.

Neutrogena Mineral Sheers Lightweight Loose Powder Foundation in the shade Nude 40 offers a refreshing approach to everyday makeup. The powder’s formula is remarkably lightweight, which makes it ideal for those who prefer a natural look without the heavy feeling of traditional foundations.One of the standout features is its buildable coverage. I found it easy to achieve a sheer finish for a casual day, but it also layers beautifully to provide medium coverage when more is needed. This flexibility is a huge plus for varying needs throughout the day.The inclusion of vitamins A, C, and E is a notable benefit. These vitamins contribute to the foundation’s skincare aspects, aiming to improve the skin’s texture and appearance over time. The added skin tone enhancer and redness reducer work well to create a more even complexion, especially for those with mild redness issues.The shade Nude 40 is a versatile option for medium skin tones, though it might not suit everyone perfectly. It’s worth testing to see if it blends seamlessly with your skin. The .19 oz size is quite compact, making it convenient for travel or on-the-go touch-ups, but it may not last as long if you use it daily.Overall, Neutrogena’s Mineral Sheers Loose Powder Foundation is a solid choice for a lightweight, buildable foundation with additional skincare benefits. It offers good coverage while maintaining a natural look, making it a worthy addition to any beauty routine.

I ordered one in 20 natural ivory. I was accidentally sent a two pack that was shrink wrapped. I am donating the extra one to someone. Mine were sealed and in good condition. The outer silver sticker is easy to remove with nail clippers. I peeled the sifter plastic disk and taped that to the inside lid. There is a round tray for a brush or sponge but no closure to rotate and stop the poder from dispensing in that tray. It has a twist open cap. The cap doesn't stay attached and flip open, so it can roll off and get lost. There are preset holes drilled. The printing is upside down, meaning, the product top is inverted. So when you have the main side facing up the powder is leaking down below. If you reverse it like a coun, the ingredients sticker is showing. I feel that is a design flaw. If you remove that half circle applique, you have a plain unbranded compact. The branding is on the bottom. It's weird. That being said, I swatched the powder on top of a NYX Bare with me serum concealer in bisque, that is fluid - on my hand. I have about 7 Neutrogena powders in my kit. I am not that picky and will use this to set the neutrogena spf under eye concealer silver sticks I bought. It's Unscented, and non sparkly, but has micro fine iridescence and no glitter, meaning it can be more radiant if not buffed out. It's got very subtle light reflecting properties. It appears too light on my hand which is more tanned than my face, but sheers out to an undetectable veil. I think it's forgiving. You can blend or use two shades to achieve subtle contour. I'm going to cancel the subscribe and save because now I need to add a replacement flocked round. Neutrogena doesn't sell their own brushes. It's a basic compact with no mirror and I am not repurchasing. It's a twist off powder pot. It's refillable by removing the sifting tray. It's not compact and space saving because it's in a wide double wall plastic with an acrylic clear end cap. That makes it more durable in drop tests. It's smaller in circumference than prior powders, about the size of a plum or nectarine, in the palm of your hand. I prefer pressed powder compact with an applicator and mirror for touch ups anywhere. Loose powers for me are messy and require a separate mirror. Neutrogena doesn't make an eyeshadow palette with a mirror. So this brand is more of a companion than an actual kit. I have over 30 powders. I have not tested this for flashback or wearability, or allergens. I intent to use it in the TZone. It's gender neutral. I rated 4 stars because it's fine. The photos don't show the product details well. It needs a proper video demonstration. I'm going to cancel the s&save. shade 20 is like a bisque or not fair ultra white, but not yellow. It's neutral beige. It's light. The powder is smooth. It's travel friendly in that it's not a magnetic closure that can pop open. But I will keep this at home. I will add images later.
