You can even use setting powders to boost your makeup look. “I use setting powder–typically a loose powder–underneath where I applied a bronzer or contour shade to clean up that area and sharpen the cheekbones further,” adds makeup artist Felicia Tricome.

They need to be soaked in soapy water for at least 30 minutes, then rubbed and rinsed vigorously.Another consumer and makeup artist favorite, the Real Techniques makeup sponge offers coverage for both foundation and concealer alike,” says Good Housekeeping. “The angled edge makes it easy to get into smaller crevices, such as the undereye area, when applying concealer.” Lean into the philosophy that less is more,” says Quaye. “Always start with a very light layer and go from there. It’s always easier to add than to remove.” There are also a few application techniques that help avoid that caked-on look. "Apply powder with a damp beauty blender,” adds Tricome. “I like to do this with a pressed or compact powder, but it can also be done with loose powder. I dip the beauty blender in the powder and apply it where it is needed. It sets the makeup while keeping the skin looking hydrated.” Tricome also recommends using a setting spray at the end of application to melt away some of that graininess.

Only The Highlights All skin types can use setting powder. It’s all a matter of how much you need to use for your skin type,” says Tricome. If you’re worried about increasing your skin's dryness, it’s important to really be selective with the setting powders you buy. “People with drier skin can opt for setting powders that offer more nourishing ingredients to prevent skin from drying out, and that have a super-fine formula which makes it more lightweight on the skin,” says Quaye. “With dry skin, applying less powder is more, and ensuring that the skin underneath is well moisturized prior to application.” How can you avoid looking too matte or dusty with setting powders?

In general, it’s best to use your Beautyblenders damp to keep them from absorbing too much product. So you’ll have to either wet your sponge or give it a good spritz of your face mist or setting spray for optimal makeup blending action.
