Translucent powders, mineral veils or finishing powders are used to seal your makeup in. For girls who have oily skin like me it is a necessity. I didn't want to spend too much on translucent powders so I searched online for the most common materials used for it. I read through different DIYs of it too.
This is what I came up with!
I used Rice flour, Cornstarch and Vanilla Powder for fragrance and of course your container. For added color I used Snoe's Poudre Extraordinaire in Perfect Beige which also has SPF 30++ and Acai Berry. I planned to include arrowroot powder in place of Talc powder, which could cause breathing problems and lung cancer. But I can't seem to find arrowroot powder in any of the grocery stores I go to :( I'll add it to my mixture when I find arrowroot powder.
Anyway just mix everything THOROUGHLY for the tint to really spread itself. I used 2 tablespoons of each ingredient. While I used 1/4 tbsp vanilla powder.

I use this powder religiously and even made a travel-sized version of it. I love it and everything costed about 60php!
