Hello!
Today I decided to finally
write a comparison of two similar products: Rimmel Stay Matte Translucent
Powder, and Maybelline Matte Maker Powder. I’ve wanted to do this post for a
while, so if it sounds like something you would be interested in, please
continue reading!
Packaging
As packaging goes, these
products are both quite different. Rimmel Stay Matte is made from cheap feeling
plastic, with lid that does not tighten or screw on. The front writing rubs off
extremely easily, especially when placed in a makeup case.
Maybelline Matte Maker,
although is still plastic, feels like a better quality. The lid screws on,
which is continent as it doesn’t fall off.
Product
Now to important part, how
these products pan out.
Rimmel Stay Matte I have
bought in “translucent” this is handy as it matches any skintone. It has a nice
“fresh” smell to it. It claims to last 5 hours on your face, which I agree
with.
Maybelline Matte Maker I bought
in Natural Beige, as I like to have my powder in a slightly darker colour. This
smells kind of chemically, but not so much so that its overpowering, in fact, I
don’t believe you can even smell it unless you put your nose right up to it to
get a good whiff, like I just did.

Price
Rimmel Stay Matte: $12:95
AUD RRP
Maybelline Matte Maker:
$11:95 AUD RRP
This is not a significant difference,
and you can usually find these powders cheaper anyway.
Overall
All in all, I love both
these products. I believe they do the job, and do it well. I don’t prefer one
to the other, in fact: I usually use either one depending on what I’m wanting
that day. For example, if I feel I need a bit extra coverage, I will use the
Matte Maker.
I would definitely recommend
either (or both if you want) of these products.
Hope you have a great
week/afternoon/whenever I next want to put up a post (oooh cheeky)!
