All SEPHORA COLLECTION makeup setting products combine performance with a natural finish. They come in several formats: spray, translucent loose powder or mattifying compact powder. Choose the one you like best for makeup that stays fresh all day long. Compact powder is ideal for smoothing out your skin or doing touch-ups.

When should longwear compact mattifying powder be applied?
Use the smoothing powder as a finishing touch after putting on makeup or as a touch-up during the day to mattify your skin and brighten up makeup.

How should smoothing powder be applied?
For a natural result, use a SEPHORA COLLECTION Classic Powder Brush 03 to pick up smoothing powder and apply a light dusting, then blend outward. To avoid clumping, tap the brush after dipping in the mattifying compact powder to remove excess. For custom coverage, dip a powder puff or sponge into the smoothing powder and apply it with light pressure to the areas you want to cover, then blend for an even complexion.

What areas should be targeted?
To avoid shine, apply compact mattifying powder to your T-zone: your forehead, nose and chin. You can also lightly powder your cheeks to set your makeup and make it last longer.
