Is the Laura Mercier translucent powder good/worth it?

Re: Is the Laura Mercier translucent powder good/worth it?

Its amazing, I love it and got it as a bundle with the puff. It made my face look amazing

Shiseido's Translucent Loose Powder is another solid option. Doesn't leave you looking white and powdery.

I love the loose setting powder from that brand. Totally worth it. If you put too much on, it'll appear white/cakey, you just have to blend it out with a fluffy brush. It definitely helped hold my foundation in place, kept my oily skin under control, and blurred out my pores. It's also a best seller!

I love the LM translucent powder. I think it’s helped a lot with my skin getting oily and breaking out. Only once did I notice my face was white after applying it but I blended it a little more and it went away. I may have put too much on my brush before applying. Another setting powder I Love is by MakeUp Forever.

Laura Mercier makes several different setting powders... the one you want is the LM Translucent Loose Setting Powder. It comes in a light and a medium/deep shade. This one does NOT generate flashback.

 

LM makes some other powders... a "secret brightening" one, an "invisible" one, etc. but some of those do glare in flash, so be sure you're getting the original above. 

 

There is also a bundle with the matching puff which is a better deal if you're getting it for the first time. I just used it with a powder brush at first, then when I repurchased I got the bundle and I kinda wish I had the puff from the start haha. It really works much better for me to use that and then just finish with a brush instead.

Me and my sister's use LM translucent, and we all love it, we don't have same skin tone and works for all of us pretty good. It's a very light powder.

@serena2304 Theres no flashback with LM. I use it and quite love it. Sephora has it in a mini size if you don't want to commit to the larger size just to try it out!
