5 Ways to Use Translucent Powder
“1. To thicken lashes - use a clean spooley brush to sweep a thin layer of powder on lashes between two coats of mascara. This bulks lashes without making them clumpy.
2.To blot out oil - powders with a lot of talc or silica are genius on your skin and on silk. Put a bit of powder on the oily spot, let it set overnight and brush it off. The stain will be gone, or at least less noticeable.
3. To prevent blisters - when switching from work shoes to going out shoes, dust powder over your feet to help keep shoes from rubbing against your skin.
4. To tone down makeup - when that one extra pass with the blush [or bronzer or eye shadow ] is one too many, dip a clean brush lightly in the powder and blend it until it looks less intense.
5. To lift greasy roots - [shake a little powder on your brush and work it from roots to midlength. The powder also adds a cool, roughed - up texture and doesn’t show, even in dark hair.”
