If you have ever used face powder, then you might already know how powerful it can help you with setting your makeup. Not only that it helps in controlling shine, and delivers quick touch-ups on the go. But if it's important, reconsider while choosing one if you have oily skin.
Why Face Powder Is a Must for Oily Skin
1. Reduces Oiliness and Patchiness
Excess oil can cause your makeup to look cakey and uneven. But Compact Powder can help you absorb oil which smoothens the patchy zones, and leaves your skin feeling all flawless and shine-free.
2. Smooth, Filtered Finish
You can be camera-ready in just minutes. The compact helps you even out the skin texture and tone as well, delivering you a smooth and naturally matte finish.
3. Smoothes Fine Lines
Powder helps blur the appearance of fine lines and imperfections. Born16’s wet and dry compact powder is packed with Raspberries which naturally helps with gently smooth aging signs without settling into creases.
4. Brightens & Evens Skin Tone
Need to fix a tan or uneven skin tone? Compact powder helps in visibly evening out your complexion and can subtly lighten your skin tone for a more balanced appearance.
Types of Face Powders Explained
Compact Powder (Wet & Dry)
This type of compact is pressed powder that can be used both wet (for more coverage) and dry (for a natural matte finish). It’s ideal for oily skin as it controls sebum and reduces shine instantly. Born 16’s Wet and Dry compact powder is one such compact that is suitable for your oily skin.
Loose Powder
Lightweight and ideal for setting makeup, loose powder offers a softer finish but is better suited for normal to dry skin.
Translucent Powder
Colorless and lightweight, this is perfect for setting makeup without adding coverage. It’s great for oily skin to control excess shine without altering your base.
How to Apply Compact Powder for Best Results
-
Start with the T-Zone: Focus on the forehead, nose, and chin where oil tends to build up.
-
Don’t Forget the Neck: For a seamless look, dust powder along the neck to blend evenly with the face.
-
Avoid Direct Application from the Pan: Tap a little powder onto a lid or palette to avoid over-application.

Use the Right Brush: For a light, natural finish, use a fluffy brush. For more coverage, go for a dense brush like a kabuki.
