Saie launches new Slip Tint Setting Powder - and here's why it's a summer staple

If you make a purchase via links on this page we will earn commission – learn more Saie has recently launched its brand new Slip Tint Undetectable Baked Setting Powder to rival Laura Mercier's iconic Translucent Setting Powder. I have been using Laura Mercier's Translucent Setting Powder for years to soak up any excess oil around my T-zone, but it may have met its match with Saie's new drop. What I love about Saie's Slip Tint is it is a multi-purpose make-up cosmetic as it functions as a setting powder, highlighter and bronzer – depending on the shade – as it adds an extra glow to my complexion while minimising any shine. This clean formula has been crafted using Phytosqualane, Silica, Hyaluronic Acid andlipids extracted from Jojoba Esters plant to create a skincare and make-up hybrid. This setting powder reduces excess oil, while also hydrating the skin. It offers a glowy finish, despite its function to reduce oiliness and set your make-up in place. Available in five shades, including very light to light, light to medium, medium to tan, tan to deep and deep to rich. BUY NOW FOR £26 Firstly the Saie Slip Tint is a pressed powder rather than loose powder, which I personally prefer to prevent wasting any product. The Saie Setting Powder is as lightweight on the skin as it promises to be, yet it delivers a natural glowy finish, sets your make-up in place without a single trace of setting powder or a cakey finish. This talc-free setting powder has been formulated with clean ingredients, including Phytosqualane and Silica, which work to smooth and blur any fine lines or enlarged pores. It also absorbs excess oil for a flawless finish. The formula also contains hydrating hyaluronic acid, as well as Jojoba Esters, which contains lipids that smooth and hydrate the skin, while providing a film to hold your make-up look in place. The powder promises to hold your make-up for eight hours, which I can attest to. In fact, I have worn it from day to night in the height of summer without my make-up budging. I always seek out non-comedogenic formulas to prevent any breakouts, which is another big tick this Saie creation delivers on. This setting powder is available in five shades, including very light to light, light to medium, medium to tan, tan to deep and deep to rich, so you can perfectly colour match the product to your skin tone. This is rare when it comes to setting powders and what sets it out from the crowd as it doesn't dull or lighten your complexion like others. While Saie's Slip Tint reduces any oily areas around my T-zone, it also lifts, brightens and adds a glowy finish to my complexion too, though it is not pearlescent or shimmery. While I opt for the light to medium shade on oily areas, I have also experimented using other shades as a bronzer on my cheeks, which was equally as effective in adding a pop of colour and definition to my cheeks without leaving me too shiny or one dimensional. This setting powder has been dermatologist tested, so it is safe to use on sensitive as well as blemish prone skin. Whether you sweep all over the face, or on select areas, is entirely up to you. Already Saie's Slip Tint has garnered an impressive 4.9 out of five stars from shoppers. Gloria's review read: 'I've been using this pressed powder and I'm seriously loving it. It gives me a natural finish without looking cakey. My skin still looks glowy like a soft, healthy glow, but not glittery or shimmery at all. It just looks like my skin, but better. I use it to set my make-up and it blends so nicely.' More Trending While Angie added: 'I enjoy this powder, it is light on my skin, doesn't not look powdery and it sets my make-up beautifully! I like how the shade is flexible since I'll be able to wear it once the season changes. There is no scent to it but there's some radiance to it, so this won't give you a matte look, which I appreciate since I have dry skin! it does not sit in my fine lines either!' A separate shopper, named Dahlia, echoed the same sentiment and shared: 'I am a huge powder girly and I've been looking for one that sets my makeup but doesn't look dry, especially under my eyes. I use it all over my face and under my eyes and it sets my makeup without taking away all the glow I want to keep. It looks really good under my eyes too and they finally don't appear crusty. The formula feels buttery almost! I love the compact and this will last me a long time since a little goes a long way.' Sold.

‘This £8.99 deal saved me £80 on all my handbag beauty essentials'
Lip balm, hand cream, fragrance... Some products are just everyday essentials, ones you use and need everyday, and always carry around with you – and here's how to stock up for under £9 Keys? Check. Phone? Check. Perfume, lip balm, hand cream, powder? Check check check – and check. I don't know about you but I never leave the house without my handbag filled with the beauty essentials I need for the day, ones I use repeatedly time and time again. And I've found a way to stock up on all my favourites for less than £9. OK! Beauty Box's latest box, the Days Out Edit, is a clever selection of all the beauty items you carry around with you and use the most: a lip balm containing SPF 50 (perfect for summer), and luxurious hand cream, a perfume that costs £112 for a full-size bottle, a shine-absorbing powder, and a brush to apply it with. The contents are worth over £90 in total but if you haven't signed up for OK! Beauty Box's monthly subscription service before, you can get the Days Out Edit for just £8.99 – a cool £81 saving. Here's what you'll find inside the box: Hello Sunday The One For Your Lips SPF50 Clear Lip Balm - 10ml full-size, worth £10 Bloom & Blossom Hands Up Age-Defying Hand Cream - 25ml travel-size, worth £12 KAB Cosmetics Translucent Setting Powder - 6g full-size, worth £23 Brushworks No. 6 Double Ended Powder and Buff Brush - full-size, worth £8.99 Sentier Eau De Parfum in the scent Meribel - 10ml travel-size, worth £32 You also get a voucher to redeem for two copies of OK! Magazine, RRP £9.20 If I had to pick a standout product from this box, I'd probably say the Sentier perfume, not just for how much I love the scent – fresh and crisp – but also its value: this 10ml tube usually costs £32 – way more the the cost of the whole box – whereas a full-size 100ml bottle costs a whopping £112. This makes it a great way to try a luxe scent for less, and in a handbag-friendly bottle. In all honesty, though, there's not a single product here that I wouldn't use. I get through lip balms as quick as anything, and I always carry a little hand cream around with me. It's also perfectly curated for summer and hot weather, with the sun protection in the lip balm and the shine-zapping powder. The only thing that you might want to add to make this completely handbag-appropriate is a little make-up bag for the powder and brush, to stop them (and the inside of your bag) from getting dirty. This Charlotte Tilbury Mini Makeup Bag of Dreams, £22, is compact and very luxe-looking, whereas this £5 Bag of Ethics Long Slim Cosmetic Brush Bag from Boots is excellent value.
