My thoughts on LAURA MERCIER TRANSLUSCENT POWDER

I just don’t like powders in loose form because it can get really annoying to apply them. This powder itself is amazing but, I wish it was in compact form. I really like the way it adds a beautiful radiance to my skin and sets everything in place. I am not a fan but yeah, I really like the way it makes your makeup look. After applying foundation you can set it with this powder without looking like a cake, that you might look with other full coverage powders. It preps your skin by making it a smooth canvass for doing the rest of the stuff i.e. contouring, blush application, highlighting etc. You can also use it to carve out your contours without looking like a clown.
