Clinique Loose Setting Powder — Translucent Transparency 3, 0.88 oz | Sheer, Oil-Control Finish

Clinique Blended Face Loose Setting Powder is a superfine, translucent finishing powder that sets makeup, blurs pores, and leaves a lightweight, natural-looking finish.

Clinique’s Blended Face Powder is a long-standing powder designed to set foundation and reduce shine without adding weight or color. The airy, silky texture sits on the skin to soften the appearance of pores and reflect light subtly, creating a fresh, photo-friendly finish. Allergy-tested, fragrance-free, and formulated to be non-acnegenic, this loose powder suits a wide range of skin types and tones.

How does this powder keep makeup in place all day?

The superfine particles absorb excess surface oil and help foundation and concealer adhere to the skin longer, reducing midday shine and product migration. It layers smoothly over cream and liquid formulas without caking, so makeup looks set instead of stiff.

• Superfine loose texture prevents heavy buildup.
• Light oil-absorbing properties control shine.
• Translucent shade maintains original foundation tone.

Will the powder make my pores look smaller?

This Blended Face Powder is formulated to create a soft-focus effect; it refracts light and sits flush to the skin, which visually diminishes the appearance of pores and fine lines. It doesn’t fill pores like a primer but smooths the surface so texture reads finer in photos and real life.

• Silky particles create a blurring finish.
• Reflective sheen adds subtle radiance, minimizing shadows in pores.
• Works over skincare and primer for enhanced smoothing.

Is this powder suitable for sensitive or acne-prone skin?

Clinique’s powder is allergy-tested, fragrance-free, and non-acnegenic, which reduces the risk of irritation and breakouts for many users. While individual sensitivities vary, the formulation is developed with dermatological guidance to be gentle across skin types.

• 100% fragrance-free to limit irritation risk.
• Non-acnegenic to help avoid pore-clogging.
• Dermatologist-guided brand standards and testing.

How should I apply the Blended Face Powder for best results?

For a natural finish, tap a small amount into a lid or brush, swirl a fluffy brush to pick up product, and lightly press or sweep across the T-zone and areas prone to oil. You can also use a puff for fuller coverage or a light brush to keep the effect sheer.

• Use a fluffy brush for a sheer, airbrushed look.
• Press with a puff for longer wear in high-oil zones.
• Layer lightly over foundation and concealer—avoid overloading.

Who is this for? Clinique Blended Face Loose Setting Powder is ideal for anyone who wants a natural, non-cakey finish that mutes shine and softens texture—especially those who prefer fragrance-free, dermatologically mindful cosmetics. It’s a practical pick for combination to oily skin types seeking lightweight oil control, and for makeup users of all experience levels who want a quick way to set and polish their look without changing shade or heavy coverage.
