Kalentin compact mineral powders: matte finish & long-lasting hold

Powder is a key step in your make up routine—not just to complete your base, but to extend its wear and keep it flawless all day. Kalentin’s compact mineral powders set foundation and concealer with a lightweight veil that mattifies without heaviness.

Their breathable, lightweight formula controls shine, especially in the T-zone (forehead, nose, chin), keeping your face naturally matte throughout the day. With a silky and blendable texture, the finish is smooth and even, without a dry or cakey effect.

Kalentin powders are perfect for daily face makeup or quick touch-ups throughout the day. Discover the compact mineral powder that suits you best—it’s a must-have in your beauty case and one of your essential make up accessories.

How to choose the right compact powder for your skin

Your skin type plays an important role in selecting the right powder. The good news? Kalentin powders are designed for all skin types thanks to their silky, light texture.

For dry or sensitive skin, the mineral formula ensures comfort and a weightless feel. For combination or oily skin, Kalentin powders help control shine throughout the day without feeling heavy. And if you need extra shine control in the T-zone, try rice powder—perfect for absorbing excess oil with a natural matte finish.

The key is to choose a powder that blends seamlessly into your skin tone without altering its color. Kalentin powders meet this need perfectly: they smooth, set, and enhance your complexion effectively.

How to apply powder correctly

Powder is essential for long-lasting make up, and a professional result also depends on the right tool. For Kalentin compact mineral powders, a soft, wide brush is ideal. It distributes the powder evenly for a light, natural effect—perfect for setting your base without heaviness, leaving your skin matte and smooth.

For loose powders, the baking technique is ideal for occasions when extreme hold is needed. Here's how:

• Apply the powder with a sponge to key areas (T-zone, under eyes, around the nose).
• Let it sit for 2–3 minutes to absorb oil and set the base. Brush off the excess gently with a soft brush for a smooth, photo-ready finish.
• Baking leaves your skin beautifully matte and your MAKE UP intact for hours, with minimal touch-ups.

Choose the technique that fits your daily needs to get the best performance out of your powder.

Compact powder for quick touch-ups

Kalentin powders work great with our brushes—a convenient combo perfect for quick touch-ups. Explore the Make up accessories and professional brushes section on our site, ideal for precision no matter where you are.

When your skin feels shiny or you want to refresh your make up, use a small, dense brush to gently dab powder on needed areas, then blend outward for a smooth finish.

Powder & Primer for Lasting Fixation

The perfect base starts with solid skincare: clean, hydrated skin helps make up stick and last longer. After moisturizer, primer acts as a bridge between skincare and MAKE UP, smoothing texture, minimizing pores, and extending wear.

Once foundation and concealer are applied, powder plays its role: its breathable, light formula sets your base without heaviness, reducing shine and imperfections. Applied with a brush, it keeps your makeup fresh and even for hours.

Combining primer and powder helps resist heat, humidity, and daily wear.

How to set foundation and concealer

For a luminous, even, and long-lasting face makeup look, follow the right product order. After skincare and primer, start your base:

Liquid foundations: Choose a lightweight, buildable texture that evens out skin tone.

Mineral concealers: Dab them under the eyes and over blemishes using a brush or sponge.

Kalentin compact mineral powder: Set both foundation and concealer while mattifying the skin and boosting wear time. Use a wide brush to apply to the T-zone, cheeks, and forehead for maximum oil control.

Powder blush & Highlighter: Once the base is set, add a touch of color to the cheeks and brightness to key areas for freshness and dimension.

Using powder between your concealer and blush ensures cream products stay put and allows powders to apply evenly after. This balance creates a natural, professional finish. Powder locks everything in, making your base resistant to heat, humidity, and long days out.
