Clinique Blended Face Loose Setting Powder — Transparency 5, Sheer Natural Finish & Oil Control, 0.88 oz

Clinique’s Blended Face Powder is a long-standing finishing product designed to lock makeup in place without adding weight or visible texture. Formulated as an ultrafine loose powder, it sits lightly on skin to control surface shine and soften the look of pores while preserving a fresh, skin-like radiance. This version in Transparency 5 provides a neutral, sheer effect suitable across many tones and skin types.

How will this powder affect my makeup all day?

Applied over foundation or tinted moisturizer, the powder helps reduce midday shine and extends the wear of cosmetics. Its airy particles create a barrier that keeps pigments from moving while keeping the overall finish soft and natural.

• Sets liquid and cream bases without cakiness
• Absorbs surface oil for a longer matte-satin look
• Helps minimize makeup transfer to clothing

Will it make pores and texture less visible?

The superfine formula blurs the appearance of pores and uneven texture by diffusing light across the skin’s surface. It does not mask texture with heavy pigment; instead it softens the look for a smoother, camera-ready finish.

• Light-reflecting particles create a soft-focus effect
• Builds a skin-hugging veil rather than a cakey layer
• Works well over primer and light to medium coverage foundation

Is this powder suitable for my skin type and tone?

Clinique formulates this loose powder to be compatible with all skin types, including combinations of oily and dry areas. Transparency 5 is designed as a sheer, neutral shade that won’t strongly alter foundation color but provides subtle evening of tone.

• Allergy-tested and fragrance-free for sensitive skin tolerance
• Non-acnegenic formulation that won’t clog pores
• Lightweight texture avoids settling into fine lines

How should I apply it for the best results?

Use a soft powder brush or puff to pick up a small amount, tap off excess, and sweep gently over the T-zone or all over the face depending on desired hold. For touch-ups, press lightly rather than re-layering heavily to maintain a natural finish.

• Brush application for sheer, diffused coverage
• Puff press for targeted oil control or longer wear
• Use sparingly over thin or dry areas to avoid dulling natural glow

Who is this for: Clinique Blended Face Loose Setting Powder is aimed at anyone seeking a lightweight, invisible finishing product that sets makeup and refines skin’s look. It suits people who prefer a natural, non-cakey finish and want a reliable powder compatible with sensitive or acne-prone skin. Whether you need daily shine control, a soft-focus effect for photos, or a finishing touch to keep makeup in place, this superfine powder offers a subtle, professional result.
