Rimmel Stay Matte Powder

This is probably my fifth Rimmel Stay Matte powder, over the past year. This is definitely my go to powder.
I have combination skin, so I need a powder that's going to keep my oil at bay, but also not make my face look cakey. Although this powder is quite chalky I still prefer it to any other powders that I have tried. I apply it with my real techniques powder brush all over my face to set my foundation in place, although you could just apply it to your t-zone if you only need to mattify that area. Although it does it's job as a mattifying powder, I love that it still lets the glow from my foundation show through whilst still setting it in place all day.
The packaging is very poor quality, made with very thin plastic. The lid attaches to the bottom very loosely, as it is just a screw on, and the writing on the packaging tends to rub off very quickly. But nevertheless I couldn't live without the product inside. The pretty crown detail that is pressed to the powder is also a nice touch.
The colour that I have is 003 peach glow. I prefer a powder with some coverage, instead of a totally transparent one. I find that this one gives just the right amount of coverage and colour that's why I love it so much.
