Cheekbone Beauty Moon Dust Mattifying Powder Review: All-Day Shine Control

I love supporting Indigenous-owned beauty brands when the product actually delivers, and Cheekbone Beauty's Moon Dust Mattifying Powder does exactly that — it controls shine without sitting heavy on the skin.

Finely Milled, Not Cakey

This is a setting powder built to mattify without flattening your base makeup. Applied with a light hand, it blurs shine in the T-zone through a full workday without that dry, powdery look some mattifiers leave behind.

Works Across Skin Tones

Cheekbone Beauty has built its reputation on inclusive shade ranges, and Moon Dust is formulated as a universal translucent option rather than needing multiple shade matches.

Pros

Pros: Genuine shine control through the day, lightweight finely-milled texture, universal translucent shade, from a mission-driven Indigenous-owned brand.

Cons

Cons: Priced at the premium end for a setting powder, and a heavy hand can still look a touch dry on very dry skin types.

Moon Dust runs $49. If you want long-wear shine control from a brand that gives back, check out Moon Dust here.
