Glow Like Selena: Rare Beauty’s True to Myself Powder
Let’s face it, finding the perfect finishing powder feels like chasing a unicorn. It’s either too cakey, too shiny, or so heavy you feel like you’re wearing a mask. But leave it to Rare Beauty and Selena Gomez to flip the script with the True to Myself Tinted Pressed Finishing Powder. Lightweight, versatile, and shockingly foolproof, this powder is about to become your ride-or-die for 2024.
What Makes It So Rare?
Picture this: a powder that doesn’t scream “I’m wearing makeup!” but instead whispers, “I woke up like this.” Rare Beauty’s latest creation ticks all the boxes—blurring, smoothing, and setting your makeup while still letting your natural glow shine through. The best part? It’s talc-free, meaning you can say goodbye to dryness and cakiness.
Instead, think of it as a soft-focus filter IRL. Whether you’re going for that minimalist no-makeup vibe or need something to lock in your glam look, this pressed powder delivers light, breathable coverage that never feels heavy or looks flat. It’s matte—but not in that sad, flat-matte way. We’re talking fresh, radiant, and absolutely photo-ready (because hello, no flashback).
And can we talk about convenience? The sleek, half-moon compact is mess-free, purse-approved, and touch-up friendly. Perfect for mid-day meetings, post-lunch shine, or that last-minute selfie.
Why Selena Gomez Swears By It
Selena didn’t just slap her name on this; she lives for it. Her words? “This powder brings out the best in my skin, and it’s so lightweight I forget I’m wearing it.” When a celebrity who lives under the scrutiny of HD cameras and paparazzi says this, you listen.
A Shade for Every Skin Tone
Inclusivity isn’t optional—it’s essential. Rare Beauty nails it with 12 versatile shades:
Porcelain: Light with neutral undertone
Buff: Light-medium with warm undertone
Golden Tan: Medium with neutral honey undertone
Sepia: Deep with neutral golden undertone
The lineup ensures there’s something for every complexion, whether you’re a glow-getter on the lighter end of the spectrum or rocking a rich, deep tone.
How to Maximize Your Magic
Rare Beauty didn’t leave you hanging when it comes to application tips. For that flawless finish, start with moisturized skin and their cult-fave Always an Optimist Primer. Then:
Use the Always an Optimist Powder Brush to lightly buff for an airbrushed effect.
Need more coverage? Press the powder in with their Soft Touch Powder Puff.
Bonus: It doubles as an under-eye setting powder.
Pro tip: Pair it with the Positive Light Tinted Moisturizer to create a dream team that makes your skin look like...well, your skin, but with an A-list upgrade.
Why Your Skin Will Thank You
If you’re side-eyeing every powder because of clogged pores or breakouts, this one’s different. Formulated to be non-comedogenic, non-acnegenic, and suitable for sensitive skin, it’s dermatologist-approved and kind to your complexion. Oh, and did we mention it’s vegan, cruelty-free, and paraben-free? Your skin (and your conscience) are in good hands.
The Price of Perfection
At RM156, the True to Myself Tinted Pressed Finishing Powder is the kind of investment your makeup bag deserves. Whether it’s your everyday essential or your special occasion secret weapon, this multitasker earns its spot in your beauty arsenal.
