Lune+AsterSuperStar Translucent Pressed Powder - The ultimate universal talc-free translucent pressed powder with vitamin E, licorice and apple seed extract.

I have dry, sensitive and mature skin (55+) and tend to use loose powder, but as I age I’m finding that loose powder can accentuate my lines. I’m getting better results using a modest dusting of this talc free Lune+Aster SuperStar Translucent Pressed Powder after applying my makeup. This can be applied with a brush or puff (not included). This comes in a modest rather than luxury compact with a nice sized mirror.I use a brush and it picks up less powder than when I use my usual loose powder, but I’m finding that “less is more.” A modest dusting with a fluffy brush is enough to do a great job setting my makeup (even under my eyes) without leaving noticeable residue. This is sheer, fine and lightly moisturizing, and it’s a light beige shade that looks colorless on my skin but leaves just a slight luminous (yet not shiny) finish.This powder works well for my dry, mature skin as I like skincare and makeup that make my skin more radiant and toning it down with matte powder can ruin that effect. This isn’t sparkly and the luminous effect is so subtle on me, but I can’t say how this would be for someone with oily skin who wants a totally matte look. But I’m really pleased with how this powder works for me. Love it. 5 stars. Made in Italy.

I am liking it so far. Not too heavy for me. With it being translucent, it is a good match for me as I am pretty pale and many products aren't a good match. I'd say that luminous is a good description for it as it provides a subtle glow. Seems like it might last me a while

This powder was a bit of a “meh” for me. The case looks quite sleek, but gets covered in fingerprints quickly. There wasn’t much inside to hold the product in during transit (no seal, only one unattached plastic piece), so the powder had broken and fallen out of the compact by the time I received it. I was able to put the pieces back in. The powder itself felt grainy and a bit gritty when applied compared to other powder I’ve used. I used my own brush, and it went on ok -- it mattes up the foundation and worked ok for setting lipstick, but it did seem to settle in creases (not exactly the smoothing effect I was hoping for). For a basic powder, it’s fine, but not exceptional.

This powder is very difficult to pick up with a brush. It took a lot of swirling and tapping to get any kind of payload on the bristles.The powder had a very subtle shimmer. It did not seem to set my makeup at all, and immediately settled into the creases around my nose and beneath my eyes. I have a hard pass on this one.

The Lune+Aster SuperStar Translucent Pressed Powder comes in a gorgeous package! The compact is chrome and just like a mirror. You will leave some fingerprints behind on it, but that doesn't bother me. The only issue I encountered with this powder was that it was somewhat difficult to pick up on my brush to apply to my face. It works great as a setting powder, though! It is super lightweight and leaves your face with a nice, healthy glow.
