Cloud Set Setting Powder

"Setting powder that takes the shine and leaves the glow. Diplomatic."
Our take

$38 Price at Kosas, checked Oct 2026.

The short answer

Cloud Set is a sheer, talc-free pressed setting powder baked with skincare actives that sets makeup and blurs without looking chalky. It's worth it if you want a powder that controls shine but keeps skin looking like skin. Very dry skin may not need it all over.

Our Take

Why it made the edit.

Why we love it: It gives a loose-powder finish in a mess-free pressed format, which is great for travel. Shades are matched to skin tone, which helps avoid flashback.
Skip it if: You have very dry skin and skip powder anyway.
The catch: At $38 it's a premium price for a powder. You'll need to pick a shade, unlike a single translucent option.
