I got a sneak peek at the new Kosas Cloud Set Translucent Loose Setting & Blurring Powder and wanted to share it with you. Here’s what you need to know.
What is Kosas Cloud Set Translucent Loose Setting & Blurring Powder?
This is a brand new setting powder from Kosas:
- Ultra-translucent setting and baking powder
- Formulated to last for 12 hours
- Designed to blur, brighten and give a natural matte finish
- Allows skin to keep its glow
- Uses bamboo stem extract to help absorb excess sebum
- Available in four shades
How to use it
To Bake – Use a puff to apply a generous layer of powder where you experience the most creasing or oil breakthrough. Let sit for a few minutes and then brush off excess.
To Set – Dust a light layer of product all over face, focusing on areas where you experience the most oil breakthrough.
Swatch
There are four shades in the Kosas Cloud Set Translucent Loose Setting & Blurring Powder. I have shade Candy:
My Review
I have to start by saying, I am not big on powder, and I have never baked my makeup in my life, so I am really not the target customer for this product! But having said that, because I love to use super glowy products, a powder can come in handy to take down the shine in certain places. The Kosas Cloud Set Translucent is great for this.
I haven’t used this product it ‘bake’ yet, and I most likely never will, but as a setting powder, this gives my skin a really pretty finish, without looking cakey, dry or over-done.
Before and After Photos
I took some pictures of how this looks under my eyes, which I find is the trickiest area to use powder without it settling into lines. And the good news is that I really liked how it looked.
I think that the pink shade, Candy, that I have works really well for brightening the under-eye area.
It has a good blurring effect on the skin, which I notice most on the areas where I don’t use my REESON Bronzing Balm (because that really blurs the skin on its own very well). Read all about that in REESON Beauty Bronzing Balm Review & Swatches.
I used a small fluffy brush to apply, but if you wanted more coverage you could press on the product with a puff. Coverage with powder is not what I am looking for, so it’s hard for me to judge it on that front.
For light powdering, I think this is a really lovely product, especially for under my eyes in this pink Candy shade.
In terms of the packaging, I love the fact that it has an inner lid to control the powder, because I generally find loose powders so messy.
