Achieve a flawless, shine-free complexion with Corum Prime & Finish Mattifying Setting Powder. This lightweight, translucent loose powder absorbs excess oil to control shine and blur imperfections for a long-lasting natural finish. This translucent, no-color loose powder is especially suited for oily, acne-prone skin. Formulated with soothing ingredients, the powder calms irritated or acne-prone skin while perfecting your look. Suitable for all skin tones, this no-color powder is perfect for use with or without makeup. This large 1 oz jar provides excellent value and will last for many applications.

NITA’S NOTE: I use this mattifying setting powder every day to help manage my oily skin. It works beautifully alone or to set foundation.

Why We Love This Mattifying Setting Powder

Shine Solved: Ditch the talc and silica! We use natural mica, a lightweight, gentle mineral that absorbs oil without clogging pores. Expertly set freshly applied makeup so your velvety complexion lasts all day.

Flawless Finish: Optical diffusers blur the look of pores and fine lines for a soft-focused effect.

Lightweight and Comfortable: The lightweight texture allows for comfortable wear throughout the day.

Balancing: Lactobacillus Ferment, a probiotic, and Aspen bark extract help support the skin’s natural microbiome.

Soothes Sensitive Skin: This lightweight, non-comedogenic formula reduces redness and calms and comforts irritated or acne-prone skin. The ingredients in this formula will not aggravate Malasezzia-related conditions such as Malassezia Folliculitis (“fungal acne”). (Learn more about controlling Malassezia.)

How to Use It

PRO TIPS

Less is More: Start with a small amount of powder. You can always add more, but taking away is trickier.

Tap, Don’t Swipe: Dip the sponge lightly into the powder, tapping off any excess. Gently press the clean sponge onto your skin, focusing on areas prone to shine like the T-zone (forehead, nose, and chin).

Bounce for Blended Perfection: Use a bouncing motion with the sponge to buff the powder into your skin for a seamless blend.

Targeted Setting: For areas under the eyes, use the pointed tip of the sponge or a small brush to gently press the powder and avoid disturbing your concealer.

Light Dusting: If using a dry sponge, you can dust a light layer of powder all over your face for a final setting touch.

Build Upon Need: If you need more coverage, repeat steps 1-3, focusing on areas that still need setting.

TOOL TIP: 

A sponge is better than a brush for applying powder to the face because it avoids creating a dust cloud. Breathing any kind of powder is not a good idea!

Use a different sponge for setting powder than you use for foundation to avoid cross-contamination.

Wash your sponge after each use with Corum Makeup Cleaner Concentrate to prevent bacteria buildup.

This sponge works very well (paid link) to apply the powder and can be used to evenly apply foundation as well. Can be used dry or slightly damp. (To dampen, wet completely, then squeeze tightly in a towel.)

This disc-shaped sponge (paid link) also works very well and comes with 2 pieces and a travel case, which is great for on-the-go touch-ups.

A plastic holder (paid link) is a great way to dry your sponge.

The sample-sized jar is great for touch-ups while on the go.

This product uses plant-based ingredients and should be used within 6 months of opening to ensure the highest quality.
