Kat Von D Lock-It Setting Powder

Product Information

It has two compartments – one to hold the powder and one to hold the sponge applicator that comes with the product. I love the idea of powder foundation, and I’m always excited when I find a good one, but because of my dry skin, powder foundations often emphasize dry patches and settle into my fine lines.

For a very long time I was a user, lover, and diehard fan girl of Skin Food Salmon Dark Circle Powder before it was very sadly discontinued. Kat Von D Lock-It Brightening Powder is available in three shade selections but I picked up two of those three shades. I’ve also gotten great results with a Sigma F84 Angled Kabuki, a Sigma F82 Round Kabuki, and the Chanel Les Beiges Retractable Kabuki. Highly recommend if you have combination skin like I do the matte powder keeps my T-zone from building up and showing a lot of shine from oil through the day. I always use concealer before using Golden, since yellow alone does not cancel out my under-eye area.I wouldn’t recommend this to those who are looking for a completely matte blotting powder; yes, this makes my oily areas less shiny, but it doesn’t make my face fully matte and oil-free.

I saw this really cool tip on the Kat Von D Beauty YouTube channel, which is mixing the appropriate shade of the brightening powder and the shade Pink Opal to have a nice effect. The powder does not settle into fine lines (yay for the 30+ ladies) and makes the under-eye area look very smooth. It leaves your face feeling extremely soft and flawless and I believe this helps my foundation and concealer stay on my face longer throughout the day! If you’re that person feel free to reach out and leave a comment or follow me on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and Bloglovin‘.

As an undereye concealer, it is definitely thicker in consistency compared to any other concealer out there, such as Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer. What really surprised me for a powder foundation was that it didn’t immediately settle into my fine lines and dry spots. Both of these products are translucent once they are blended into the skin, so they are perfect for all skin shades.
