I have combination skin. Almost every time I do my makeup, I set it with some kind of a powder. Once my regular setting powder was done, I decided it was time for a change. That's why I went ahead and purchased the Kosas Cloud Set Baked Talc-Free Vegan Powder. I had purchased a few products from Kosas in the past and loved whatever I tried. So this seemed like a safe bet.
The Sephora website says this is “A super soft, sheer setting and smoothing powder baked with skincare that sweeps away shine (not glow), feels like nothing, but looks like everything.”
Packaging Of The Kosas Cloud Set Baked Talc-Free Vegan Powder
The packaging is extremely simple. This talc-free powder is housed in a translucent light purple, plastic compact. However the compact container does not have a mirror or a brush. This might be an issue for some.
Formula Of The Kosas Cloud Set Baked Talc-Free Vegan Powder
This product is vegan, gluten-free, and cruelty-free. The formula starts as a mousse packed with skin-supporting ingredients. It is baked to achieve the perfect ultrafine layer of sheer pigment. This unique airy texture gives your skin the most smooth, blurred, healthy look ever. The Cloud Set Baked Talc-Free Vegan Powder has Bamboo Stem Extract, Passion-fruit Leaf Extract and Chinese Peony to absorb excess oil, reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and also minimize your pores.
Shades Of The Kosas Cloud Set Baked Talc-Free Vegan Powder
The Kosas Baked Talc-Free Vegan Powder is available in 10 shades. I picked up Feathery, a sheer light medium shade.
My Experience
This baked, pressed powder provides very light coverage with a natural finish. I swirl my brush over the baked dome and apply all over my face. This beautiful powder smooths everything out and somehow makes my skin look flawless and beautiful. Again, it is perfect for a no makeup look as it allows you skin to show through. Additionally I find this to be a lightweight powder with some blurring effect.
This powder is not matte, you will still have a bit of a dewy look. I find this very skin like. However it is not very long wearing on me because of my combination skin. Your mileage may vary. I also use this powder to set my under eye area and haven't had any issues with it so far.
Pros
- Lightweight powder that gives you a natural and blurring effect
- Vegan, gluten-free, and cruelty-free
- Did not break me out
Cons
- Does not come with a brush or a mirror. This might be an issue for someone who wants to carry this in their purse for touchups
- Not very long wearing. If you have oily skin this powder might do little to control the shine
