Translucent Loose Setting Powder

I watched Goss Makeup Artist's video on why foundation may oxidize on your face, and one of the possible culprits could be, a coloured loose/setting powder. He carried on about how he always chooses to use a colourless white setting powder instead. I was having problems with my foundation becoming orange, so I bought LM's white setting powder. Good news! It really worked and my …Read more

I bought the travel size with the puff. Looks dry caked make up face, it didn't matter how lightly I tried to apply or what I put it over. Bonus it broke me out! At 58 I don't get zits very often and I know it was this product as I try products singularly to see if it will irritate my skin. This was in the drawer for a while, every time I forgot and tried it again, breakout. Gave to …Read more

Edit - I am now exactly nc42 with some wintertime self tanning going on. This still looks GLORIOUS. In fact, since I don’t need as much foundation tan, I sometimes just use concealer and this!! It’s really radiant and beautiful!

This is for the GLOW version in the lighter shade. The original makes me look 100 (I’m 40 with normal skin, but even at 29 with oilier skin it aged me …Read more

It's good but you can go drugstore with the same results. Not much else to say... Very expensive though..

Does not do much for coverage nor staying power.

I would never think I would use this word for a makeup item but I HATE this powder
Its cakey,heavy not finely milled and drying yet it's overhyped on YouTube cause everyone wants to like what their favs like
That being said almost all the beauty gurus switch to others setting powders
The ingredients are a breakout in the waiting (soybean oil,cornstarch coconut …Read more

This is a solid product and is definitely the best translucent setting powder I've used.
If it is going to be a long, hot day, I use a big fluffy brush to apply a thin layer after primer but before liquid foundation. This helps to create a lovely base for my makeup and also helps to control oil. I then apply another thin layer to my T-Zone after I have applied foundation. It definitely …Read more

I really like this product, I think it somewhat deserves its hype, but I probably think that because of its value. Compared to a lot of other highly revered, high-end competitors, you'll find it's much better value when comparing dollars to grams. Examples include Hourglass's Veil Powder: 46 USD for 10.5g, Chanel Natural Finish Powder: 52 USD for 28.3g with this product being 39 …Read more

This is the Maseratti of setting powders; if the color doesn't look too ghostly on you (I know they came out with a darker shade, not sure if it's enough to fit all the dark-skinned gals and guys out there), you won't need to invest in any other setting powder ever again.

Not worth the money. I have oily, acne-prone skin and used to use loose setting powders from Armani and YSL (which were more expensive, but worth every penny).

Well, both Armani and YSL decided to discontinue their powders, so I had to find a new one. I was very reluctant to use Laura Mercier's as I remember not really liking the texture back when I first tried it in my 20s. I went …Read more
