Key ingredients: Silica, corn starch, or rice powder (absorbs excess oil)
Finish: Opt for matte formulas to combat shine all day
Dry Skin: Hydration Without Flakes
Must-haves: Hyaluronic acid, glycerin, or squalane (locks in moisture)
Avoid: High talc content—it can worsen dryness
Combination/Sensitive Skin: Gentle Balance
Zone-specific application: Matte powder for T-zone, hydrating formula for cheeks
Safe bets: Fragrance-free, alcohol-free, and mineral-based blends
Core Ingredients That Deliver Results
Talc: Absorbs oil without irritation
Mica/silica: Blurs pores and creates a soft-focus effect
