Laura Mercier Translucent Pressed Setting Powder Review

Laura Mercier Translucent Pressed Setting Powder


To set my make up and avoid too much oiliness throughout the day, I have being using the Laura Mercier Translucent Pressed Setting Powder (0.28 Oz (8.1 g), $34). I was tired of using loose powders and I wanted to try something less messy when it comes to application and travel. This powder comes in a compact with a mirror and a sponge. It helps my makeup stay in place for awhile, but after 3 or 4 hours my skin starts to get oily. Even though the powder is translucent, it still has to be applied with a light hand or it will look kind of ashy and cakey. This product is finely milled and when I used a brush, sometimes it would go everywhere. The packaging is great for traveling and the powders work well. However, in terms of amount per dollar, you get more product for about the same price if you purchase the loose version of this setting powder (1.0 Oz (29 g) ,$35).
