The ultimate secret to a flawless, airbrushed complexion
Hello girls! Discover the absolute secret to a flawless complexion with the TOUCH BEHOLD Setting Powder. Are you tired of your expensive makeup settling into fine lines, disappearing by noon, or making your T-zone shine like a disco ball? Younique has developed the perfect finishing touch to lock in your foundation and give your skin an incredible “real-life filter” effect.
This translucent, ultra-fine setting powder is a true technological marvel. Lighter than air, it sweeps seamlessly over the skin to set all liquid and cream makeup products, intensely blur the appearance of enlarged pores, and control excess sebum. It is the final, essential step to ensure a matte, velvety, and impeccable complexion from morning to late at night.
The benefits: why your face will absolutely love it
- Infallible hold: It powerfully locks your foundation and concealer in place, completely preventing them from creasing, slipping, or oxidizing throughout the day.
- Instant blurring effect: It acts exactly like a photographic filter, optically smoothing out fine lines, wrinkles, and pores for a visually perfected skin texture.
- Invisible finish: Entirely translucent, it adapts seamlessly to all skin tones (from very fair to very deep) without ever leaving a dreaded white cast or looking chalky.
- Absolute shine control: It effectively absorbs excess oil and sweat, keeping your T-zone perfectly matte and shine-free for hours.
- Feather-light texture: The powder is milled so finely that you won’t even feel it on your skin. Say goodbye to the heavy, cakey, or overly powdered look!
My unfiltered verdict
I cannot stress enough how crucial a good setting powder is. For years, I avoided powders because they made my skin look dry and aged me by 10 years. But the TOUCH BEHOLD Setting Powder completely changed the game. It is so incredibly fine that it literally disappears into the skin while doing its job perfectly.
What I absolutely adore is its blurring power. When you apply it under the eyes to set your concealer, it magically smoothes the area without ever settling into the tiny expression lines. And for the center of the face, it instantly erases the look of pores. It’s a true magic wand that gives you that highly coveted “airbrushed” finish, even if you have textured skin.
How to use it for maximum results?
- Wait a minute or two for your foundation and concealer to properly dry down and set into your skin.
- Gently shake the powder, twist the lid to open it, then use a YOUNIQUE powder brush. Tap off any excess!
- Gently press and roll the powder onto the areas you want to set and mattify, focusing primarily on the T-zone (forehead, nose, chin) and your under-eye area.
- For the “baking” technique (to strongly lock in concealer and highlight): apply a generous layer of powder under the eyes with a damp sponge, leave it to “bake” for 3 to 5 minutes, and then lightly dust off the excess with a clean, fluffy brush.
- Finish with a quick spritz of Younique Setting Mist to perfectly melt all the layers together for an incredibly natural look!
Why I recommend it with my eyes closed
I highly recommend the TOUCH BEHOLD Setting Powder to absolutely everyone, regardless of your skin type. If you have oily skin, it will be your best ally against shine. If you have dry or mature skin, its ultra-light, non-drying texture will set your makeup without ever emphasizing dry patches or wrinkles. It is an indispensable staple for any makeup bag!
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Does this powder cause “flashback” in photos?
No! Younique has formulated this translucent powder to be completely flash-friendly. It contains no heavy reflective minerals (like pure silica or titanium dioxide in high amounts) that cause that awful white cast in flash photography.
Will this powder make my dry skin look even drier?
Not if used correctly. The key for dry skin is to use a very small amount and only apply it to areas where your makeup tends to crease (like under the eyes). Its micro-fine texture is designed to be as non-drying as possible.
Can I use it to touch up my makeup during the day?
Yes, absolutely. If you start getting shiny, gently blot your face with a tissue first to remove the excess oil, and then lightly dust a tiny amount of powder over your T-zone. It will instantly refresh your makeup!
Does it add any color or coverage to the foundation?
No, the TOUCH BEHOLD Setting Powder is completely translucent. It adds absolutely zero color or extra coverage. It will not alter the shade of your carefully matched foundation.
Is it better to use a brush or a makeup sponge?
It depends on the desired finish! A large, fluffy brush gives a very light, natural, and airy finish. A slightly damp sponge (like for “baking”) provides a much stronger hold and a highly pore-blurring effect, ideal for long events.
How long does a jar typically last?
Because the powder is so fine and you need so little for the entire face, one jar typically lasts anywhere from 4 to 8 months with daily use.

It smooths the skin texture like nothing else. It looks as if I have put a permanent filter on my face. *(Translated from French)*

Thank you Nora; that smoothed-skin effect is much appreciated when it still looks natural.
Pascale –
I never used powder before because I was afraid of a mask effect. Behold changed my mind. It is invisible and effective. *(Translated from French)*

Thank you Pascale; a discreet powder often changes how setting makeup feels.

I used it on my wedding day. My makeup stayed flawless from morning until the end of the night, despite the emotions and dancing. *(Translated from French)*

If there is one product I can no longer do without, itβs the Behold Younique powder. I have always hated powders that make the face look stiff or dry out the eye area. But this one… itβs an experience! When you apply it, you feel a fresh sensation, as if water were being sprayed on the face. Itβs very surprising at first. It instantly blurs my pores on the sides of my nose. Sometimes I wear only my day cream and a veil of this powder to visually ‘erase’ imperfections. People around me often ask if Iβve had a facial!

Thank you MΓ©lanie, Iβm glad TOUCH BEHOLD gives you that fresh feeling and light veil effect you enjoy.

I was looking for something simple so I wouldn't be shiny on video calls. I found exactly what I needed. A quick brush and it's sorted.

Hi there! Thank you so much for your review! π₯° Haha, we all know the famous shiny nose or the little 'hot flash' in the middle of a Zoom meeting, it's anxiety-inducing! π Itβs clear that this powder is magical for that: one single brush stroke, it mattifies instantly and blurs pores without creating a cakey effect on camera. Iβm delighted that it saves the day for you every day! Now all thatβs left is to keep it within reach next to the keyboard. See you very soon!

I've been using the Touch Behold primer and setting powder for three weeks now and it's found its place in my makeup bag. I apply a small dab of primer on my T-zone, then spread it lightly with my finger before applying my foundation. The result: a velvety, matte finish that doesn't dull the complexion, and makeup hold is visibly better by the end of the day. I also like that the powder is fine, it doesn't weigh the skin down or settle into fine lines. The only downside for me: you need to moisturize well on really dry areas beforehand, otherwise the powder can catch a bit. The packaging is compact and handy to slip into a bag.

Hi Claire,
Thank you for your feedback, itβs super useful for the other readers. Good application technique, you understood everything: little product and we press rather than sweep for a natural finish. If your skin is dry, moisturize well before application to prevent the powder from clinging.
