These loose powders are great for reducing shine, minimising creases and keeping makeup in place, without any caking.

Mask-wearing today comes with a whole bevvy of skincare problems: increased sebum and sweat, smearing of foundation on our masks, and so on. But in place of that, we&rsquo;ve got the solution: loose powders.

Why? Wearing loose powders on top of our foundation or creams help to reduce the friction and creases between face masks and our skin, making transference of makeup onto our masks less likely to happen, keeping&nbsp;our face looking put together for longer. Plus, loose powders are lighter and contain less oils than pressed powders, making them less likely to appear overly thick and cakey over&nbsp;skin.&nbsp;

But as we know by now, not all loose powders are made the same. Ahead, we&rsquo;ve rounded up the best lightweight loose powders for an airbrushed finish;&nbsp;great for reducing shine, minimising creases&nbsp;and keeping makeup in place.

BSKIN Flawless Finish Perfecting Loose Powder, $49

This loose powder from BSKIN comes infused with skin-loving, sustainably sourced bee actives - royal jelly and honey, and titanium dioxide for physical, UV filter protection. Simply dab on with its pad or a kabuki brush as the final step in your skincare routine for a luminous, even-toned complexion, without clogging pores -- and velvety-matte to touch.
