The best setting powders under £40?

I’ve been married to the Charlotte Tilbury setting powder for years now, but would love to try something new for a change. Same price range ideally not over £40 with a good amount of mattifying effect for oily skin. Does anyone rate the Rare Beauty one?

My skin is a bit more on the oily side and I swear by the Laura Mercier Loose Setting Powder – keeps my makeup in place all day!

Thanks so much everyone!

My favourite is the By Terry hyaluronic hydra powder - really lightweight and suitable for all skin tones! It also lasts ages so the mini one is an affordable option!

Thanks so much, so many good ones to try xx

Charlotte Tilbury has no radiance, so if you switch to the Hourglass you will see a change as there are reflection particles within. If you like the Charlotte Tilbury ones for finish (and coverage) you may like either the Chantecaille press powders or the MAC pressed powders.
