Why Translucent Powder Can Look Ashy on Deeper Skin
Many traditional translucent powders rely on very pale or white-looking powder bases. On deeper complexions, too much pale powder can leave the skin looking gray, chalky or washed out.
Melanin Magic uses a deeper semi-translucent mineral tint so you can set your makeup without masking the richness of your complexion. It is intended for medium to deep skin tones rather than functioning as a universal colorless powder for every complexion depth.
Setting Powder vs. Finishing Powder
Melanin Magic can do both. Lightly press or sweep it over foundation to help set complexion makeup, or use a very small amount as the final step in your routine to soften excess shine and create a smoother-looking finish.
Because the formula is sheer, begin with a small amount and build only where needed.
How to Use
After applying your foundation, tap a small amount of Melanin Magic into the lid. Pick up the powder with a LUV + CO Kabuki Brush, powder brush or puff and remove any excess before applying.
Lightly press or sweep over areas where you want to set makeup or reduce shine, such as the forehead, sides of the nose and chin. Apply sparingly beneath the eyes to avoid unnecessary buildup.
For your complete complexion routine, use after Chamomile Face & Eye Primer and Melanin Match Liquid Foundation or Melanin Match HD Cream Foundation + Concealer.

Melanin Magic Translucent Powder FAQs
Will this translucent powder look ashy on dark skin?
Melanin Magic was specifically created with a deeper semi-translucent tint for medium to deep melanated skin. Unlike stark white translucent powders, it is designed to set makeup without leaving a chalky or gray-looking cast when applied appropriately.
Is Melanin Magic a setting powder or finishing powder?
It can be used as both. Apply it over foundation to help set your complexion makeup, or use a light dusting as the final step to reduce excess shine and create a smoother, softly airbrushed-looking finish.
Is this powder talc-free?
Yes. Melanin Magic is a 100% mineral, talc-free formula made with only sericite, iron oxides and ultramarine blue. It contains no fillers or preservatives and no titanium dioxide or silica in this loose formula.
Which skin tones is Melanin Magic designed for?
This powder is designed primarily for medium to deep melanated complexions. Its deeper semi-translucent tint helps it blend more naturally into richer skin tones than traditional pale or white translucent powders.
Can I use Melanin Magic over both liquid and cream foundation?
Yes. Use a small amount over Melanin Match Liquid Foundation or Melanin Match HD Cream Foundation + Concealer to set the complexion and reduce unwanted shine. Start lightly and add more only where needed.
