Not helpful! While the translucent powder can mute color a bit, this one makes me look a bit ghostly for the whole day. The powder feels very talcy – a feeling that lasts ALL DAY – and it seems to make me more pale, muting any color I’ve added.

Though I suffer from adult acne (read what was the cause of my acne here), my skin isn’t generally oily. I’ve heard that this powder is great for those with larger pores, which means it would be better for oily/acne prone skin. I bought it anyway, figuring that most of my life was daytime and away from harsh lights, but… I HATED IT! This powder is MUCH finer and is definitely white.
The downside to that reflective look is that it isn’t good for evening when you’ll be under harsh lighting nor is it good for any sort of flash photography. The selling point of this setting powder is that it settles into the skin, minimizes wrinkles, and gives a reflective look. So many people RAVED about it, I finally tried it. With such great success with the translucent setting powder, I was certainly intrigued by their other option – their “invisible” loose setting powder. Laura Mercier Invisible Loose Setting Powder Review That mini size is also good for testing out the product – there’s plenty to know if you love it!Ībout a year ago I was talking to a Laura Mercier makeup artist at Nordstrom and she told me she uses this powder even if she doesn’t have much or any makeup on to help smooth her skin, so you can bet I’ve been doing that too! It comes in a travel size too, which I love. The end result is a more evenly applied face of makeup.įor that reason alone, I’m now dependent on this powder setting powder for giving me long-lasting makeup.
What can I say?Īpplying the setting powder initially looks as though it mutes your makeup, but it settles in pretty quickly to be fairly sheer. Most of the time, however, I get a little heavy-handed on one side or just quit before it’s truly all blended together. Sometimes my makeup application of bronzer, blush, and my beloved highlighting powder is like magic and it all blends together seamlessly. The first selling point about the setting powder is that it actually helps blend your makeup. Laura Mercier Translucent Loose Setting Powder Review
#LAURA MERCIER UNDER EYE POWDER UPDATE#
I liked one and not the other, so I thought I’d update my initial Laura Mercier setting powder review to include all three of their setting powder products… Laura Mercier Setting Powder Review Since then, I’ve also tried their Invisible Setting Powder and Secret Brightening Under Eye Powder. I say mostly because I have a tendency to wipe my face when I’m hot and nothing in the world can keep makeup on my face when my hands are to blame. I used the Laura Mercier Translucent Setting Powder through the summer when I bought it and fell in love with how it kept my makeup fairly in place even in humid destinations and hot days outside. Now that I’ve tried all three finishing powders, it’s time for this Laura Mercier setting powder review. I’d used what I thought was a setting spray for a while (I now don’t think it was), so the notion of a setting powder was somewhat novel to me, but I quickly fell in love.
About two years ago, I bought my first setting powder.
