The difference between honey powder and pressed powder is like this

Loose powder and pressed cake are both whitening products that people often use when applying makeup, but few people know the differences between loose powder and pressed cake. In fact, pressed powder is used to cover blemishes and even out skin tone, while loose powder is used to set makeup. It comes in two colors: colorless and transparent and natural color, but basically has no ability to cover blemishes.

1. Pressed powder is a skin-colored powder with strong concealing effect, which can help to even out skin tone. In theory, it belongs to base makeup like liquid foundation and powder cream, but because it is easy to carry, it is more often used as a touch-up product. In daily life, it can be used to suppress oiliness after sunscreen when doing light makeup. Liquid foundation is not needed at this time. Do not stack pressed powder and other base makeup products when the makeup is still on. Otherwise, the concealing effect will be too heavy and you will feel like a mask.

2. Loose powder includes colorless and transparent ones, natural colors but with basically no blemish-covering ability, and green/purple/pink ones that slightly adjust the complexion. Each type has matte and slightly shimmering options, and also comes in the form of loose powder and loose powder. Pressed powder is usually pressed more loosely than foundation powder. It is generally used to set makeup and suppress oiliness. When applying eye makeup, in order to prevent eye shadow powder from flying and messing up the base makeup, you can also apply a layer of powder under the eyes first, and then brush it off with a brush after finishing the eye makeup. Green/purple/pink can adjust red blood vessels/dark yellow complexion/bloodlessness respectively, but the effects are relatively natural. If you want a stronger effect, you still need to use concealer and blush to adjust it. Most loose powders contain talc. Some people with acne or sensitive skin may be sensitive to this. You can choose mineral loose powder or silicone-based ones. The usage techniques of loose powder and pressed cake are also different. Pressed cake is generally applied with a sponge or puff. A brush can also be used, but it will easily damage the protective film if sunscreen is applied. Loose powder is generally applied with a brush. I use a large fluffy loose powder brush for both cake and powder. I have seen a statement before that pressed powder contains fewer ingredients than liquid foundation, and does not require as many preservatives when it is dry, so it is more beneficial for acne-prone skin and sensitive skin. This needs to be verified.

3. These two things are generally consumed very slowly. Pressed powder generally has a small capacity and is used up faster because it is used more often. More than 20 grams of loose powder will really take forever, and I have dry skin, so I have almost no need for it except in summer... Dry skin doesn't actually need a lot of powder products. When skin care and foundation are not moisturizing enough, applying loose powder will cause your cheeks to peel in minutes.
