I absolutely adore this powder. It’s one of the most affordable but quality translucent powders I have found.
It sets make up really well and blends very easily.
My only complaint is that the powder is very messy and the packaging isn’t the easiest to use. I prefer not to use the included applicator and rather use a big soft powder brush.
Otherwise really a fantastic product.

This powder is great to work with. It buffs in well into the skin giving a nice flawless finish and does not excessively matify (which causes the cakey look). I’m absolutely in love and it’s currently my go to setting powder.
I also use it to blend my makeup together (final step after highlighting and contouring just to set my whole face as well) works like magic!
Also, very affordable! Value for your money! This is how my make up looked like after using the powder

This mattefying face powder is by far my favorite and much prefer it to the pressed compact powders as it just goes so well with all my foundations that I currently use when I’m doing my make up routine

- helps makeup last longer on the skin

I use this product daily for the last 8 years. It is light on my skin and do the job.
My skin is not really oily and find the product not drying out my skin.
I am not so crazy about the sponge (I feel it could be thicker) but use it or use a brush to apply the powder.
All in all a great product and will keep using it! Will recommend it to anyone!

I must admit I was drawn to the packaging and colour of the powder
A beautiful soft nude pink. When I opened it(@ home)it also smelled great! I'm just a make up lover so I'm not a professional when it comes to make up. However I found it easy to apply and it looked exactly like I envisioned it should after application.
My under eye are was smooth, no bumps and no caking! I really love the product

I bought this product some time ago and it is incredible.
I have very oily skin so my concealer (no matter which brand I use) creases and my eyeshadow fades away after some time. I decided to get a loose powder to set my eye area and I found this one on sale at Clicks. At first, I tested the 'coloured' ones and I found one that perfectly matches my skin tone. Unfortunately, Clicks did not have this particular one in stock.
I decided to try out the translucent powder. I was quite scared at first because I have a medium to dark skin tone and, because the powder in white, I thought it may leave an ashy/grey layer on my skin.
I was wrong. This product comes in a large tub with an application sponge (which I don't use). Initially, I applied this product with a fluffy brush to set my under eye concealer and eyeshadow primer. It blends really well into my skin and does not leave an ashen look. It also mattifies the area and prevents shine and oiliness.
It is long-lasting and only a little powder is needed. My concealer did not creases and my eyeshadow stayed put for most of the day (this is huge for someone with ridiculously oily skin). It also has a great scent and does not give my face a powdery look.
I got mine for R97 (on sale) which is inexpensive compared to other loose setting powders. I highly recommend this product for anyone looking for a setting powder and especially for those with oily skin.

I use translucent powder daily and sets my makeup beautifully. I don't use the application sponge that it comes with. I use a big fluffy makeup brush. It lasts all day. Gorgeous!

I have been using this powder for years. It is just awesome. It is so easy to work with, blends well, and is the best setting powder for me. The powder is very light, has a soft and lovely scent and leaves my skin feeling and looking really silky. A tub also lasts an age because you really don't need to use a lot at all. Highly recommended!

This is on my regular list. I love it and I always have a tub with me where ever I go. It comes in Translucent Buff and Bare. The Bare seems to have more of a pinkish shade.
I use this each morning and it leaves my skin looking fresh and takes away any oiliness.
It has a very light fragrance, which is perfect for powders. I have noticed that when you are in the sun, the powder gives of a slight shimmer. This is only visible in the sun though. LOL, my husband teases me and asks if I am a vampire because I sparkle in the sunlight LOL

Absolute Translucent is absolutely fabulous!!! I have tried so many (expensive!) powders and this one does the job (even better than most). And I need 'industrial strength' for my shiny skin! Smells lovely too.
