Reviews
Flawless Finish
"Love this powder! Creates a flawless finish and doesn’t crease or cake on dry skin. Not even a hint of a white cast on my fair skin, it just sets and holds exactly as it should. RMS does a fabulous job with skincare-level ingredients while keeping the toxins found in most makeup away from our precious skin."
New favorite
"This powder with the hydra concealer is the best combo. I will say I only like this powder applied with a mini powder puff. The powder is so fine and it doesn’t settle into my lines under my eyes. I have been trying so many different powders and this one makes my under eyes and face look amazing even after 10 hours of wearing makeup. I also have very dry skin and it doesn’t cling to dry patches. I hope this never gets discontinued."
Does the job against shine
"This powder lasts all day. It is an amazing product. Only suggestion is the application. It is more difficult to apply the powder from the small container. Otherwise, Holy grail against shine. Love it!"
The best translucent powder
"I love this stuff. Nothing compares. The most beautiful matte finish that leaves my skin so silky soft. Please keep this stocked, because I almost didn’t make it til it was restocked again!!"

"The UnPowder is my secret for looking younger and concealing and blurring my fine lines. I’ve tried others and they have a white shade that lightens my face. This powder works like a charm."
Unpowder.
"I got this mainly to pat on my lips after I line them to keep the liner from bleeding into my lip lines. It works wonderfully! I love all of the RMS products I’ve tried so far, and I’ve tried many!!"
Unpowder
"I have struggled with powders before; however, this untinted unpowder is just perfect. I’m wondering what a tinted version would be like. It sets my makeup and looks great. I tap it into the top lid and use a brush to apply."
Great simple powder
"Decent and better for you face powder, does the job well :)"
Angel skin - nothing like it
"I genuinely hope you will never stop making this. There’s nothing else like this on the market. The most finely milled powder that instantly absorbs oil & sets makeup & looks airbrushed all day? So many other powders - including the tinted hydra powder - are doing too much. They want promise to moisturize, they promise to blur, never chalky, etc but the fact is they don’t always mix well with makeup or sunscreen textures. They do become “gummy” or chalky, they do emphasize pores. Even the laneige one. Even by terry. All of them. This is the only powder for me for the rest of my life & I can’t find it anywhere anymore, it’s not in stores. Not on amazon, not anywhere. I genuinely don’t know what to do when this is all gone, I’ve been trying other powders to lesson the blow of this powder is indeed being phased out, but they are all awful. Rms please keep this one in production. The hydra powder is fine but it’s a different product with different uses. I’ve been using this one for a decade & I’ve tried them ALL, trust me, there is nothing else on earth that gives this mother of pearl, seashell, mermaid, angel, poreless porcelain doll texture."
Q&A
- When choosing a setting powder, what are the differences/benefits to consider for the unpowder and hydra setting powder? Thank you!
- UnPowder is a completely matte formula—perfect for when you’re working on a photoshoot and don’t want any shine, or if you just prefer a completely matte finish. But for everyday (aka you’re not modeling in a photoshoot), healthy looking skin that just needs a bit of shine control, the new Hydra Setting Powder is perfect. Hydra Setting Powder is available in three shades—Light, Medium, and Deep—while UnPowder will only be available in the 'Untinted' shade. Both are great options, but Hydra Setting Powder has the latest and greatest technology and a few extra skin benefits like the HerbalHydrate Complex for a beautiful finish that doesn’t look dry, cakey, or leave a white cast.
- Will this work to set under eye concealer?
- Yes! But a little goes a long way! Using your puff, press and roll on the desired areas of the face.
- How is this for setting the undereye?
- Our UnPowder is great for setting the undereyes, and a little goes a long way! We recommend using the included powder puff and gently applying under the eyes!
- white powder make skin look white?
- Hi Sharon! Our original UnPowder is translucent! Be sure to use a light hand when dusting on powder, and blend well - a little goes a long way! It should be completely translucent on the skin.
- What tone is each shade? I’m looking for a tinted powder for medium skin tone.
- Hi Jenny! If you prefer your setting powder to add color and are UnCoverup/ReEvolve Natural Finish Foundation shades 00/11, I recommend tinted UnPowder in 0-1. For shades 22/33, I recommend shade 2-3 and shades 33-55, I recommend 3-4. Please also know that our translucent UnPowder works for any skintone!
