Overview
Yves Saint Laurent All Hours Setting Powder in B80 is the deepest shade in the All Hours Setting Powder B-series — a deeply tinted powder for deep complexions and those using the darkest shades in the All Hours Foundation range. The B80 tint is the deepest available in the collection, providing a naturally skin-close, complexion-matching set on deep skin tones where pale or translucent setting powders would create an ashy or dulling effect rather than the natural refinement that a setting powder should achieve. The finely milled formula controls shine, extends the longevity and transfer resistance of the foundation, and gives a naturally polished finish that completes the All Hours look on deep complexions.
The formula is consistent across the All Hours Setting Powder range. The full All Hours Setting Powder collection — from B10 through to B80 and the Universal — is available at Pearl Chemist Group.

What Does YSL All Hours Setting Powder Do?
Yves Saint Laurent All Hours Setting Powder in B80 is the deepest shade in the All Hours Setting Powder B-series — a deeply tinted setting powder appropriate for deep complexions using the darkest shades in the All Hours Foundation range. The B80 depth provides the most precisely matched tinted set for deep skin tones, giving the complexion the naturally refined, unified finish that only a correctly matched tinted powder can achieve at this depth of skin tone. Applied as the final step of the All Hours system, B80 sets the foundation, controls shine, and delivers the long-wear, transfer-resistant finish without the grey or ashy cast that pale or translucent setting powders can create on deep complexions.
The inclusion of a shade as deep as B80 in the All Hours Setting Powder range demonstrates YSL's genuine commitment to serving the full spectrum of complexion depths within the All Hours system rather than providing a token range of predominantly pale options.
How to Apply YSL All Hours Setting Powder
- Complete your base makeup first. Apply foundation and concealer to a fully primed, moisturised face and allow to settle for 30 to 60 seconds before applying the setting powder.
- Choose the right application tool. A large, fluffy powder brush gives the most natural, diffused set across the full face. A denser powder puff or sponge gives a more pressed, intensive set that is most effective for high-movement or high-humidity contexts where maximum transfer resistance is required.
- Apply with light, sweeping strokes across the face. Use a light hand to dust the Universal setting powder across the full face in sweeping strokes. Focus a slightly more generous application on the T-zone (forehead, nose, and chin) where shine typically appears first.
- Press into areas of concern. For under-eye concealer setting — where creasing can be an issue — use a denser brush or the flat face of a sponge to gently press the powder into the concealer area rather than sweeping, which can disturb the concealer beneath.
- Brush off any excess. Use a clean brush to lightly brush away any excess powder after setting, particularly from the cheekbone area where a heavy powder application can dull the complexion.
The Universal shade works over any foundation colour without any colour contribution — it is the most versatile option in the All Hours Setting Powder range and is appropriate for all skin tones across all All Hours Foundation shades.
Who Is YSL All Hours Setting Powder in B80 For?
- Skin tone: Deep complexions — those using the darkest shades in the All Hours Foundation range who want the most precisely matched tinted setting powder available in the collection.
- Shade depth: The deepest shade in the B-series — deeper than B60 and the appropriate choice for those whose complexion requires the most tinted end of the All Hours Setting Powder range.
- Skin type: Most beneficial for combination and oily skin types where shine control and extended wear are primary concerns.
- System use: The most appropriate tinted All Hours Setting Powder shade for completing the YSL All Hours Foundation look on deep complexions, where a correctly matched tint is most critical to a natural, non-ashy finish.
What Shades Are Available?
YSL All Hours Setting Powder is available in six options at Pearl Chemist Group: Universal (translucent, appropriate for all skin tones), B10, B20, B40, B60, and B80. The B-series shades are lightly tinted to provide a complexion-matching set with a slight coverage quality in addition to the setting function. Universal is the fully translucent option appropriate for all skin tones without colour contribution. Please check the current listing for all available shades in stock.

FAQs
What is the YSL All Hours range and what makes it different?
Yves Saint Laurent All Hours is a long-wear, transfer-resistant makeup collection — a system of foundation, concealer, primer, and setting products designed to work together for maximum all-day longevity. The All Hours products are formulated with transfer-resistance technology that keeps makeup in place through heat, humidity, and daily activity. The All Hours Setting Powder is the final step in the system, locking the foundation and concealer in place for the most complete long-wear result the All Hours range provides.
Who is B80 appropriate for?
B80 is the deepest shade in the All Hours Setting Powder B-series, appropriate for deep complexions — those using the darkest shades in the All Hours Foundation range who need the most deeply tinted setting powder the collection provides. It is the correct choice for those whose complexion depth requires the full tinted range of the All Hours Setting Powder to achieve a naturally skin-close, non-ashy finishing result.
Why does a deep complexion need a deeply tinted setting powder rather than a translucent one?
A pale or translucent setting powder on a deep complexion creates a visible grey or ashy cast on the skin — a dulling, colour-altering effect that works against the natural warmth and depth of the complexion and the foundation beneath it. A correctly matched tinted shade like B80 provides the same setting and shine-control function as the Universal but with a depth of colour that sits naturally on deep skin tones without any grey quality. The difference between a correctly matched tinted powder and a translucent one is most clearly visible on deep complexions, where the colour gap between the two is greatest.
What is the difference between B80 and the Universal for deep complexions?
On a deep complexion, the Universal setting powder can leave a visible pale, ashy cast that noticeably dulls the warmth and vibrancy of the foundation beneath it — particularly in photographs or direct light. B80 provides the most natural, skin-close result on deep complexions by matching the depth of the skin tone rather than sitting pale against it. For deep complexions, B80 is categorically the better setting powder choice within the All Hours range; Universal is a more appropriate option for lighter skin tones where the pale quality is less visible.
How do I apply setting powder without looking cakey?
Use a large, fluffy powder brush with a light hand. Take a small amount of product on the brush, tap off any excess before applying, and sweep lightly across the face in broad, diffused strokes. Focus a slightly more generous application on the T-zone where shine typically appears first. Brush off any visible excess after setting. The key with any tinted powder is a light application that sits naturally on the skin rather than an accumulated build-up of product that sits visibly on the surface.
Is YSL All Hours Setting Powder long-wearing?
Yes — the All Hours Setting Powder is formulated as part of the YSL All Hours long-wear system and is designed to extend the transfer resistance and longevity of the foundation applied beneath it. When used as the final step of the complete All Hours system — primer, foundation, concealer, and setting powder — the full-day longevity of the All Hours range is at its most complete. Used alone over a non-All Hours foundation, it will still extend foundation wear and control shine effectively throughout the day.
Is YSL makeup cruelty-free and vegan?
Yves Saint Laurent Beauty is owned by the L'Oréal Group and is not certified cruelty-free by major organisations including Leaping Bunny and PETA, as L'Oréal Group sells products in markets where animal testing may be required by local regulation. For the most current cruelty-free and vegan status of this specific product, check directly with YSL or the brand's official UK website before purchasing.
Is YSL All Hours Setting Powder a good gift?
A setting powder from YSL's All Hours collection makes a genuinely thoughtful gift for anyone with a deep complexion who uses the All Hours Foundation — B80 is the deepest and most precisely matched choice in the range for deep skin tones, and its inclusion in the collection demonstrates a welcome commitment to serving the full spectrum of complexion depths at the prestige level.
