Professional makeup artists use this mineral oil-controlling loose powder application step to easily create a natural and flawless base makeup.

Have you ever encountered this problem: your makeup starts to get oily and smudge within two hours of application in the morning? Especially in hot and humid regions (such as Southeast Asia or the Middle East), ordinary loose powder simply can't last all day. Don't worry, today we'll unlock the professional usage techniques for 8-color mineral oil-control loose powder —the foundation magic product chosen by over 70% of professional makeup artists worldwide.

Why can mineral oil-controlling loose powder maintain a matte finish all day without fading?

It's not just a simple "oil-absorbing powder," but a composite powder that combines bioengineered microparticle technology with natural mineral ingredients (such as mica and titanium dioxide). Real-world testing shows that it lasts an average of 8–12 hours , about 40% longer than traditional loose powder. Crucially, it won't dry out or cake, and instead allows the skin to breathe more freely.

"When our team was shooting in Dubai, we were exposed to high temperatures for 6 consecutive hours. Only by using this mineral loose powder could we maintain a stable makeup effect."
— Li Na, Senior Makeup Artist | Invited Lecturer at the Shanghai International Beauty Expo

Step-by-step tutorial: From color matching to targeted enhancement, we'll guide you step-by-step to ensure victory.

Color number Suitable skin tone Recommended scenarios
N1 (Cool-toned Ivory White) Asian skin tone (fair/cool undertones) Daily commute, receiving European and American clients
N3 (Warm-toned Beige) Yellow/Neutral Skin Tone Outdoor shooting, adaptation to high-temperature climate
N5 (Dark Brown) Dark skin/combination skin Stage makeup, nighttime events

Remember the three key steps: patting, blending, and touch-ups . First, use a sponge puff to pat your makeup to set it, then use a brush to blend it all over your face. You can apply a thin layer of powder to the T-zone and areas around the nose that are prone to oiliness, but don't apply it thickly.

Customized recommendations for different skin types and climates

  • For oily skin users : It is recommended to use a setting spray (such as one containing hyaluronic acid) to form a moisture barrier and prevent dryness and peeling.
  • For those with sensitive skin : Choose fragrance-free and alcohol-free versions to avoid irritation.
  • In hot and humid environments (such as Singapore and the UAE) : Apply loose powder twice a day, morning and evening, and use a cold compress towel to cool down and improve comfort.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs): Helping you avoid common mistakes for beginners

Q: I just used foundation, do I need to use loose powder too?
A: Absolutely! Foundation is just a base; loose powder is key to long-lasting makeup. Combining the two makes the makeup adhere better and spread more evenly.

Q: How can I determine if this type of mineral powder is suitable for me?
A: Before trying it, you can test it on a small area behind your ear. If there is no redness, itching or stinging, it means it is suitable for your skin type.
