Adding dusting powder to my routine ✨

I wanted to try incorporating dusting powder into my skincare routine but didn’t want to spend too much right away. So I stopped by Dollar Tree and picked up these powders to start with! I also grabbed a powder puff while I was there all for $3.75🫠💸✨

I’m hoping this setup works well, but I’d love any tips you have! 🙏 How do you use dusting powder in your routine? Any tips on how to make it last or get the best results?

... Read moreIt's so fun discovering new things for your skincare routine, especially when you find budget-friendly options like the plant-based cornstarch shower powder from Dollar Tree! Since you're asking for tips on how to make your dusting powder last and get the best results, let's dive into some common questions and uses. First off, what exactly is dusting powder, and where do you put dusting powder? Often called body powder or bath powder, it's designed to be applied to the skin, typically after a shower or bath, to absorb moisture and leave skin feeling soft and smooth. Unlike facial setting powders, body dusting powder isn't usually meant for your face, but rather for larger areas of the body. You can find perfumed body powder with puff or unscented versions, and the plant-based cornstarch shower powder you found is fantastic because it's known for its super absorbency and is often cruelty-free, making it a great alternative to traditional talc-based powders. So, where to apply dusting powder for the best effect? Common areas include under the breasts, in the groin area, inner thighs, and feet – basically anywhere moisture tends to accumulate and cause friction or stickiness. A light dusting on your back or décolletage can also leave a pleasant, soft feel. Using a powder puff like the one you picked up is perfect for an even application; just pat it gently onto clean, dry skin. This helps the powder create a smooth barrier. What are the benefits of dusting powder on skin? Beyond just feeling nice, dusting powder acts as a drying powder, absorbing excess moisture and helping to prevent chafing, especially during warmer weather or after exercise. This makes it excellent as dusting powder for sweat. Many people enjoy the subtle perfume talcum powder scent that perfumed dusting powder with puff can add, leaving you feeling fresh throughout the day. It helps your skin feel silky and can even make getting dressed a bit easier, as clothes glide on smoothly. A common concern is, does dusting powder clog pores? Generally, body powders are formulated to be fine and non-comedogenic for body use, meaning they are less likely to clog pores than some heavier facial products. However, it's always best to apply it to clean skin and avoid extremely thick layers. If you're wondering can i use dusting powder on my face, it's usually not recommended unless the product specifically states it's safe for facial use, as body powders can sometimes be too heavy or fragrant for delicate facial skin. For oily skin on your face, best setting powder for oily skin is a better choice. To make your dusting powder last and get the best results, always apply it to completely dry skin – moisture can make it clumpy. A little goes a long way, so start with a small amount and add more if needed. Some people find that layering a matching scented body lotion first, then dusting the powder, helps the scent linger longer. Keep your powder puff clean to ensure hygienic application. I'd love to hear how your Dollar Tree finds work out for you!

Possibly. I didn’t add oil to them. I use them after I put oil on my skin and it worked well and the scent is light.

I tried to pink one, the scent already in it is so strong that it overpowered the oil, I still use it after the shower though, I think I may have added too much oil also cause the powder isn’t as light as before
