Former Love Islander star Molly-Mae Hague uses these TikTok-famous velvet powder puffs to apply her powder and set her make-up – here’s where to buy them and why they’re so good
Molly-Mae Hague is most definitely a modern-day beauty icon; whatever she uses, we want it, and her product recommendations often sell out. And this simple but effective beauty product she loves is guaranteed to elevate your make-up game.
In one of her ‘get ready with me’ videos, the former Love Islander is seen using a Trigwell Cosmetics Velvet Powder Puff to press powder onto her face, setting her make-up. These black teardrop-shaped puffs cost £14.99 for a pack of two from LookFantastic, where they’ve also received rave reviews from customers.
Made from a super-soft microfibre fabric, these puffs ‘set your base with a seamless, skin-blurring effect’, according to the brand, while the unique triangular shape is perfect for pressing into all the small corners of your face.
LookFantastic customers clearly agree with Molly-Mae, as the majority of reviews on the website are five-star ones.
“These are a game changer,” wrote one happy shopper. “I have purchased before and will always use these to set my make-up, perfect with loose powder.”
“I have purchased before but needed new ones, these are perfect for setting powder. Makes my make up look flawless,” another review reads.
A third agrees: “These are fab powder puffs. Have watched a couple of influencers on YouTube use them, and decided to give them a go. So glad I did. Tiny amount of product used but do the job perfectly.”
LookFantastic recommends using them with a loose make-up powder like Trigwell Cosmetics Velvet Setting Powder, £14.50, to finish off your make-up. Alternatively we know that Molly-Mae loves Laura Mercier Translucent Loose Setting Powder, which is currently reduced down to £29.24 at Sephora.
We think they work best with loose powders, but they could also be used with pressed powder compacts such as e.l.f. Halo Glow Setting Powder, £8.
After a cheaper alternative powder puff? Revolution does its own version, priced at just £3.99, or alternatively you can find a lot of good options on Amazon for just a few pounds.
