19 February 2008 09:49 | | | "blot powder" may be correct, but I don't think it is the best translation. I would prefer : "matt powder" for those reasons :
- the word "blot" doesn't refer to something matt (which is the French meaning for "matifiante" 
- Google gives +500000 answers for "matt powder", while 150000 only for "blot powder"
- "blot powder" seems to be a term devoted to one product only, sold by a commercial company, "M-A-C Cosmetics" | | |
