Fortunately for us, one 56-year-old claims she’s found the best lightweight product to seal your foundation without adding years to your face. 

The best bit? It costs a mere £4. 

The powder in question is the Natural Collection Setting Powder, and Pen Georgios took to Instagram to proclaim her love for it. 

“I’m 56 and I have used every loose powder on the market at every price point,” she said. 

“And Natural Collection powder is absolutely fantastic.”

It comes in three shades of translucent, light to medium and medium to deep. 

“This lightweight setting powder is made with natural mica giving you that soft focus finish,” Boots bosses said.

“This soft silky texture blends effortlessly, setting your make-up for up to eight hours.

“At Natural Collection we believe in beauty made simple and sustainable. 

“We believe in being kind to our planet and people by creating natural, vegan products that are never tested on animals.”

When it comes to achieving a flawless make-up look, loose powder is often the unsung hero. 

Foundations and concealers get much of the spotlight – but it’s the fine grains that seal the deal and ensure your glam face stays put throughout the day. 

Loose powder is a finely milled powder which, unlike pressed powder, is free-flowing and light in texture. 

Its primary purpose is to set make-up, locking foundation and concealer in place, and to control shine by absorbing excess oil.

With its ultra-lightweight formula, loose powder provides a smooth, matte finish without caking or feeling heavy on the skin.

Many loose powders are infused with light-reflecting particles that help blur imperfections.

This gives the skin a soft-focus, airbrushed effect – which is ideal for taking years off your face.

Whether you’re looking to achieve a matte finish, set your make-up for the day or look camera-ready, a good loose powder can be your secret weapon.
