Ashlee’s Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Blur Loose Powder Review

Shade reviewed: Translucent medium-tan Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Blur Loose Powder, £40.00

First impressions: It was love at first sight. Unlike other loose powders, you don’t really need to dust off any excess after pressing in with your puff! This product is really well thought out and the puff is expertly crafted for getting into the little corners, so it’s quite good for touch ups throughout the day.

Formula: You can definitely feel and see the hydration in this formula. It’s very smoothing and very blurring. Similarly to the brand's pressed powder, it’s not drying at all, but the pressed formula is quite creamy and it's much easier to get a matte finish with this product. If you have combination or oily skin, I'd probably say this is the one for you.

Finish: My skin looked perfect once I'd just applied, but as with any setting product, the real test is how you look at the end of the day. The formula is really hydrating, my skin looked so glowy and my base remained flawless. My skin can go quite patchy throughout the day, so I'm really impressed. This powder is seriously good. I will be keeping it close by.

Ella’s Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Blur Loose Powder Review

Shade reviewed: Translucent fair-medium Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Blur Loose Powder, £40.00

First impressions: When I saw the shiny packaging and puff, I thought ‘omg as if’, I am absolutely obsessed with the heart shaped puff! The size of it is perfect and I love that you can keep it in its compartment, so that it doesn’t get lost.

Formula: As I applied, I immediately noticed how light and airy the powder felt, with a very airbrushed finish. Usually, my other loose powders feel much heavier, so this is a really nice option to help your makeup last throughout the summer months. I would recommend still leaving it to set like any other loose powder to reveal its maximum potential.

Finish: This powder literally blurred my skin. I know people tend to stay away from a matte finish nowadays, but this powder controlled my oil well and made my skin look really smooth without looking flat. It doesn't sit on your skin, it goes right into every little line, pore or patch of oil without creating patches. To top it off, it helped my makeup stay put all day, even in this heatwave!

Isabel’s Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Blur Loose Powder Review

Shade reviewed: Brightening Peach Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Blur Loose Powder, £40.00

First impressions: I'll be honest, I was slightly scared to stray away from my beloved Laura Mercier powder as nothing else has ever lived up to it. I was however, really pleased to see that the product includes a puff, which is nicely heart shaped! This is such a generous touch. I was slightly worried that this shade would be a bit too dark for me, but it was actually such a good colour that made my base look flawless.

Formula: Most powders out there are so much heavier than this one. It’s almost impossible to get a thick layer which sits on your skin’s surface. Instead, this actually melts into your skin instantly. I mainly applied under my eyes and on my t-zone but I also sculpted my contour around my cheekbones and it's just so easy to use.

Finish: This powder set my foundation and concealer nicely and completely blurred my pores and texture. You barely need to dust off your powder after applying with the puff! I like this as you can see how the finish will look. With some powders, it actually has to look worse before you blend it. Not this one! My skin looked really healthy with a satin finish, rather than completely matte. This is definitely one of my favourite Charlotte Tilbury products.

Steph’s Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Blur Loose Powder Review

Shade reviewed: Brightening Peach Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Blur Loose Powder, £40.00

First impressions: I’m actually not much of a powder person but I love the hydration and softness of the Airbrush Flawless Finish, so despite initially thinking this colour could be too dark, I was desperate to give it a go. I have combination skin, so in this summer heat I've had lots of unwanted shine on my t-zone. I opted to use this powder to reset my base from oil and shine at lunch.

Formula: I only applied a few dabs with the puff and it instantly made my base look polished again, without causing patchiness. The oiliness was absorbed and I also suffer from creases under my eyes. A few dabs of powder later and the creases were replaced with soft, smooth under eyes.

Finish: I would definitely recommend this for anyone who wants to set their look without feeling too dry or matte. This powder did a great job of extending the life of my base on one of the hottest days of the year! You can definitely tell it’s hydrating as usually powders make my base look quite lifeless and dull, but this wasn’t the case! Despite being quite fair, brightening peach looked very natural on me and wasn’t too dark.

Our Verdict On Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Blur Loose Powder

After the review, everybody continued to use their powder and it’s official – This is one of the best on the market.

The pros: All of our reviewers loved the packaging, puff and ultra lightweight formula. The airbrush finish was incredibly easy to achieve and the hydrating ingredients prevented dryness.

The cons: While everybody fell in love with this powder, the nature of a loose powder is slighty more fiddly than a loose. If you’re into fuss-free makeup, give the Airbrush Flawless Finish a go first.
