Why we stand behind it

This weightless, oil-absorbing powder minimizes the appearance of pores, blurs imperfections, sets makeup, and delicately hydrates for a natural, smooth filter effect on the skin. RMS's skin-perfecting, ultra-fine, light-reflecting formula has a silky texture that won’t cake or settle into fine lines, providing the finishing touch for filter-like skin (with zero flashback). Powered by HerbalHydrate, an innovative complex of water-soluble plant-derived actives in 100% vegetable capsules, it allows for moisturizing benefits in a powder. Skin-loving clean ingredients like Vegetable Squalane balances oil and hydrates, antioxidant-rich Wildcrafted Buriti and Organic Jojoba Oils nourish and defend against environmental stressors, while RMS's advanced Gel2Powder technology provides the bouncy application of a gel with long-lasting wear and a 3D finish that’s never flat. All featured with a custom RMS stamped sifter and lid that separately holds the included cotton puff and dispenses the perfect amount of powder every time. Think of Hydra Setting Powder like a second skin that blurs, sets, and nourishes—all day.

Pro-tip

“You asked for a talc-free setting powder with a slightly luminous glow, and I loved creating this for you by adding plant actives and wildcrafted oils. It’s hydrating, but will stay put all day without creasing or feeling heavy. The three shades add a slightly tinted sheer coverage but with a magical translucent glow that adds a youthfulness and diffusing effect—even just a touch of it on the skin is hypnotic, perfecting and also nourishing.” - Rose-Marie Swift

Reviews

Great finish

"I love the finish of this powder, and I like that it's not drying, which will definitely be great for the fall/winter. However, it's hard to get the product out of the packaging sometimes because so little comes out at a time."

— Gisselle F. (4/5)

A nice finishing powder

"Formula is nice, and the subtle shimmer in the product is nice as well. I am trying to clean up all of my products, and do not want to breathe in talc, which is the main reason for my purchasing . Most finishing powders are too matte, but I was surprised this powder leaves your skin looking like it has some life to it. I’m not sure if it creates a cakey finish, however, I haven’t used it enough to see how it will do. I will give an update as soon as I’ve used it a few more times! Overall, a good product and I think it’s a good addition to my makeup bag."

— Charlene R. (4/5)

Great product :)

"This is my first time using this type of face powder. I was looking for something to control T-zone shine without settling into my expression lines. This product is great! It’s very sheer, leaves my skin feeling like velvet, and doesn't accentuate any lines. I'm very happy with the results"

— Ana (5/5)

Can't recommend enough!

"This powder is wonderful. At first, I thought it looked slightly shimmery and would be shimmery on my skin, but it's not. It's not matte, either. It adds the perfect glow while blurring my pores. I always pair it with the RMS setting spray and it leaves such a beautiful, natural finish, even on my very dry skin. Highly recommend! Excellent quality!"

— Emily C. (5/5)

Best clean powder

"I was pleasantly surprised with this powder’s performance. I wasn’t sure at first because my skin is very dry. But a little goes a long way and helps keep my makeup in place longer. It leaves a nice finish on my face and helps hide texture too. Love the powder puff it comes with. Finding a good powder is hard enough already but finding a clean one that I like is even more of a challenge. This checks all the boxes!"

— Maristela Y. (5/5)

Yes! Seniors This Is Your Powder

"Since I am in my 70's I did have a concern about powder. Hydra Powder definitely can be used by seniors. It's not like any powder I have used before. Will not accent lines. If you live in the South a must for setting your makeup. Blends right in with a soft finish. Love It."

— Marcia O. (5/5)

Great finishing powder!

"Amazing setting powder eliminates shine but doesn't over dry my already dry skin or look fake or cakey! Sets my makeup perfectly. It stays put all day."

— Janice W. (5/5)

Great product

"Yet another product I had misconceptions about and was proven wrong. I was afraid of ending up looking like a Kabuki player, but this powder is so light and translucent, it just creates a kind of silky finish without looking chalky of feeling heavy."

— Judy (5/5)

Too dark & too cakey

"It's always hard for me to find powder that works for my very fair, dry skin, and unfortunately this was a big miss for me. It was too dark for my skin, so it added a little orangey color, but it was *incredibly* cakey. It made my skin tint look much worse, to the point where I gasped when I saw my reflection after wearing it for a few hours. It was cake city. Unfortunately I also threw away the packaging as soon as I received it (because I love some of my other RMS products so much) so I don't think I can return it. Someone who is not as fair as me might have a better color match, but I have never had a powder become so cakey before."

— Jenn F. (1/5)

Beautiful powder!

"Beautiful formula!! I haven’t used powder in years since I’m +50 because of fear of dryness. This powder delivers hydration while blurring any skin texture. It’s kept my makeup in place during the summer heat and still looking fresh. Love it."
