translucent powder

Sheer finishing cosmetic

Translucent powder is a finely milled cosmetic powder used to set makeup and reduce shine without adding color or coverage.

Unlike tinted powders, it appears nearly invisible on the skin regardless of skin tone: She dusted translucent powder over her foundation to keep it from creasing.

The term distinguishes it from setting powders that contain pigment.
