Extended Product Information

FAQs

What skin type is this best for?

This setting powder is suitable for all skin types, but it is particularly beneficial for oily to combination skin due to its excellent shine-controlling properties.

Does this powder have flashback in photos?

No, Laura Mercier Translucent Loose Setting Powder is formulated to be flashback-free, ensuring your complexion looks natural and flawless even with flash photography.

How do I choose the right shade?

This specific variant is in the 'Medium Deep' shade, designed to seamlessly blend with and flatter medium to deep skin tones without leaving an ashy or white cast.

Can I use this powder without foundation?

Yes, you can lightly dust this powder over bare skin or primer to control shine, blur imperfections, and achieve a perfected, natural look.

What's the best way to apply this for best results?

For a long-lasting, matte finish, use a velour puff to press and 'bake' the powder onto targeted areas. For a lighter set and overall perfecting, use a fluffy powder brush to lightly sweep it across your face.

Is an applicator puff included with this product?

Info needed: [Typically, Laura Mercier Translucent Loose Setting Powders include a velour puff, but this can vary by retailer or specific product packaging. Please check the product description from your vendor.]

How long will a 0.33oz (9.3g) container last?

Info needed: [The longevity depends heavily on individual usage frequency and amount. With daily, moderate use, a 9.3g container can typically last for several months.]

Troubleshooting

Powder looks cakey or heavy on the skin.

You might be using too much product. Tap off excess powder from your puff or brush before applying. Use a lighter hand, or blend thoroughly with a clean brush after application.

Still experiencing shine shortly after application.

Focus application on your oiliest areas (e.g., T-zone) with a pressing motion. For very oily skin, consider 'baking' in those specific areas. Ensure your skincare routine addresses oil control if necessary.

Powder settles into fine lines, especially under the eyes.

Apply a very small amount of powder, focusing on pressing it into the skin rather than sweeping. Ensure your skin is well-hydrated before application. Smooth out any creases in your concealer before setting.

Powder looks uneven or patchy.

Ensure your liquid or cream base products are fully blended and set before applying powder. Also, make sure your application tool (brush or puff) is clean and free of old makeup or oils.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Sets makeup effectively for prolonged wear, reducing the need for touch-ups.
  • Specifically formulated shade blends seamlessly into medium to deep skin tones, preventing an ashy or white cast.
  • Excellent oil and shine control, keeping skin matte throughout the day.
  • Delivers a natural, soft-focus finish that minimizes the appearance of pores and fine lines.
  • Does not cause flashback, ensuring a flawless look in photographs.

Cons

  • Can appear heavy or cakey if too much product is applied.
  • Loose powder format may be messy if not handled with care.
  • Requires an application tool (puff or brush) which might not be included.

Setup

Upon opening your Laura Mercier Translucent Loose Setting Powder, gently peel back any protective seals or stickers covering the sifter holes. Always keep the plastic sifter in place to control the amount of powder dispensed and prevent spills.

Compatibility

This setting powder is compatible with virtually all liquid, cream, and stick foundations and concealers. The 'Medium Deep' shade is specifically formulated to blend seamlessly with medium to deep skin tones, preventing any ashy or white cast often associated with translucent powders.

Care

  • Storage: Always ensure the lid is tightly screwed on after each use to prevent spills and protect the powder from moisture. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
  • Cleaning Tools: Regularly clean your velour puff and makeup brushes. Dirty tools can transfer oils and bacteria to your powder, affecting its performance and your skin health. Wash puffs and brushes with a gentle cleanser and allow them to air dry completely.
