Clinique Stay-Matte Universal Blotting Powder - 0.29oz - Ulta Beauty

Bought as a gift for my mom and she lives it

The compact gets hard and you can't apply the product. Even if you scrape it the product comes up in clumps and won't spread. Worst!!!! I don't usually leave reviews but I don't want you to waste your money like I did. 1 star because it made me because it's 0 stars imo

I've been using Clinique products forever. Purchased this pressed powder and happened to look at ingredients and to my shock, eventho right there it say's no parabens, was listed two different parabens. Called Clinique at least 6 times and finally got a call back. She didn't have an answer, but said take to Clinique and exchange because formula has changed. Well the sales person went through at least 10 boxes of this powder and all have parabens. She said I guess we haven't received our new formula powders yet. I have an answer, throw out all the ones that do have parabens and send out an apology to everyone who believed you.

Not cakey, nice sheer shade. Have been using this powder for a few years now. Love it!

The Item Had Already Been Opened

Seems to work ok on my oily skin

At the beginning a light veil would be easy to pull from the applicator but within a month, the powder hardened and dried into a hard, chalky texture. I can still pull up product but only when push hard, scraping the edges. I loved it in the beginning, disappointing it couldn't last long.

Clinique's "Stay Matte" pressed powder should be called "Stay Perfect" because that's what it does for my makeup. Offering translucent coverage that does not darken with wear on my pale complexion, this powerful powder is highly-effective for setting one's finished face in the morning while also providing a terrific, totable touch-up whenever required with its beautiful, sleek compact.

I love the powder, but 3 of my pressed powders cracked. The compacts were not dropped. The pressed powder always breaks up when the compact is dropped. I have dropped a couple. It is not usable because it continues to crack. It makes a mess. It's getting expensive to continue to buy new compacts.

Man I love this foundation powder. It is lighter so it really works well after the liquid foundation. I usually put a small amount of the acne solutions foundation on then blend with foundation brush followed by my blush stick, then even it all out with this powder for the finish. My skin looks flawless with such little effort and i look natural not like someone painted my face. It helps to absorb any oil spots, and makes my liquid foundation last all day. I usually buy the neutral shade because it works so well if i am tan or in the winter.

I have been using this powder for decades. I can use a few different shades, which is nice if my regular shade is out of stock. This was the first Clinique product I tried. It's the only powder that didn't make me break out. I wouldn't use anything else!

This is great for my skin, even when it's dry.

This has been my go-to pressed powder for decades, going way back to when it was in that ugly green square compact. I prefer this over the blotting powder for touch ups, and as a minimalist, the mirrored compact saves me from carrying around a separate mirror in my purse. The powder doesn't feel heavy, and never looks cakey. I use this to set my base as well as for touchups. Keeps my oily t-zone matte for hours without looking dry. The invisible matte is perfectly invisible no matter if I'm darker in summer months. I agree that the price is getting kind of steep but I try to wait for a sale. I haven't found another powder that works as well as this. I hope this powder is never discontinued.

It seems that this product has changed over time. The texture is no longer powdery at all and you have to really rub the applicator onto the product in order to get any onto it. I used to be a big fan but will no longer purchase it.

Stay-Matte Universal Blotting Powder really did a great job, my skin is fully covered and flawless

This Stay-Matte Sheer Pressed Powder works great on my skin, feel beautiful and comfortable

I've been using this powder for over 10 years. I tried some other products, but always had to come back to clinique as this powder gives very natural look and stays all day without getting oily or dry.

I'm a regular purchaser of two different shades of this powder coverage--01 and 02. I use 01 on the T-zone of my face and 02 for the sides and neck area to cover redness. I find this powder coverage to provide ideal, light coverage--it's definitely not too "heavy" or cakey. I can't say it's perfect for controlling shine so I personally pair this with Clinique's universal blotting powder. If you have oily skin like me you might want to pair this with the blotting powder as well.

I started using this powder two weeks ago, and I love it. Today my powder is broken without any special reason, unfortunately I don't have the package anymore to return it.

Amazing coverage, great for sensitive skin and this is my go-to powder for day to day use.
