Fenty Beauty by Rihanna Invisimatte Blotting Powder

September 13th, 2017 by Karen 6 Comments

Peach fuzz says what now?

Fenty Beauty by Rihanna Invisimatte Blotting Powder gets awesome reviews on the Sephora website, but it was the only product from my recent Fenty Beauty purchase that I didn’t love…so I’ll keep this short and sweet.

It’s a 0.3-oz. plastic pan of non-refillable $32 pressed translucent powder (comes with a puff) for setting your foundation and/or concealer (you can also use it on bare skin to vanquish shine), and while it’s supposed to be completely undetectable on skin, unfortunately, I can totally see it.

OK, I’ll admit that I’m weird about face powder… I absolutely do not want to see it on my skin. At all. That’s why I hold MAC Mineralize Skinfinish Natural in such high regard, because it’s the most non-powdery powder out there, IMO, regardless of how closely I peer into my mirror at it, and regardless of the lighting situation.

Sadly, I can totally see Invisimatte when I look at myself in bright sunlight, especially when I turn my head. BAM! It drives me absolutely batty. There they are, grains of powder hanging out on the little hairs on the sides of my cheeks, and don’t even pretend like you don’t also have them. 🙂 Don’t we all have a little fur there?

Bottom line, I think this is a great powder for eliminating shine and controlling oil — even better than MAC Mineralize Skinfinish Natural — but I REALLY wish it didn’t cling so obviously to le fuzz de peach.

Side note: sometimes I feel like the hairiest person to have ever walked the face of the earth. Why I don’t carry a razor around with me 24/7 (clutched in my hairy paws), I don’t know, but I should probably start.

Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,

Karen

    This was on my wishlist actually, but if it clings to the face then I am definitely not going for it! Thanks

    I’ve got hairs everywhere! And I’m a brunette so they are rather dark. I embraced that years ago and decided I just have tiger like qualities ??. Not everything can be cool in a collection, pity that the powder is so visible though.

    Oh no! I love a good blotting powder but I can’t stand when powder grains are visible on my face. And I’m with you on the peach fuzz becoming more obvious when they are… I guess I’ll stick to my MAC Blot powder, it works well and it even has a subtle blurring effect on my skin (like, I see my pores a lot less).

    Did you try alittle squirt of Mac Fix+? It tends to fix that issue for me. ?

    Oh! I was so hoping to get this one and love it, but the peach fuzz on my face is very much there, and while you usually don´t see it because I am so blonde, I don´t need no powder emphasizing it!

    I’m totally Queen of the Peach Fuzz and that’s probably why I also don’t care for powder. Maybe this would be alright if kept in the T zone? One of my friends started using a facial razor on her fuzz and swears that it doesn’t grow back darker or more coarse. There is no way I’d take a chance on that. 🙂

About Makeup and Beauty Blog

Welcome to Makeup and Beauty Blog
Hi there! I’m Karen, your friendly neighborhood beauty addict, and I’m a Bay Area girl who hoards brown eyeshadow and covets coral lipstick. Every morning, I wake up and say, “I’m going to do something other than a smoky eye today.” Then…I end up doing a smoky eye anyway (most days). When I’m not putting on makeup, taking pictures of makeup or writing about makeup, which I’ve been doing daily since 2007 (!), you’ll find me hanging out with my hubby (“El Hub”), my four-year-old daughter (Connor Claire) and my torbie girl cat (Pretty Girl Rosie, a.k.a. PGR).
