Review: Laura Mercier Loose Setting Powder

Hi all my followers, I again have a chance today to review such a nice makeup item that I believe you have heard the name of it for a long time. It's the loose setting powder from Laura Mercier. I hope all of you will gain some useful knowledge and have fun when u are reading this post :)

Laura Mercier Loose Setting Powder ($34 or 1,590 Baht for 29 grams) is considered as the best of the best loose setting powder of the world by a large number of worldwide makeup artists. With an absolutely lightweight, smooth, and silky loose powder, it contains the uniquely beneficial ingredient giving you a 'soft-focus' appearance for fine lines and imperfections.


It has really been my favorite loose powder since I first started using it. It's very fine and smooth that can nicely set my foundation and my makeup throughout the day and it also controls well oil on my face. Moreover, as I said above, the soft and featherweight texture of this product is so great so you can be sure that you'll never feel heavy over foundation.


What I liked this product:

• The texture is not caking or curdling unlike other powders I've tried so you don't have to worry about this problem.

• There are 3 shades of this powder: translucent, ivory, and beige so I think 3 shades would suit for any tones of skin. However, I fully recommend you check out 'translucent' though it looks kinda white in the container, it's very truly translucent because it's suitable for any color skins and never makes your skin tone too light or too dark.

• One thing worth mentioning is the excellent oil control ability because it stopped me from getting oily on face. But if you have very oily skin, you should touch you face up after using it 4-6 hours later.

• I really love this product since the ability of setting my makeup the whole day. After applying foundation and concealer, I always set them with this great product as it helps my makeup stay on my face without greasy or shimmery look.
  

• There's no scent or perfume as the ingredients which is a good thing of loose powder so you can be sure of not being allergic to it.

• In terms of ingredients, I have acne-prone skin, so a concern with this product is that the Talc contained in it may cause pimples, but I haven't experienced any new pimples yet.

What I didn't like this product:

• I don't like the packaging because it's quite messy to open and it's kinda difficult to carry on outside.

• There's no puff or sponge in the box or container so you have to buy it separately which costs around 350 Baht. However, if you have the powder brushes, you can use it with this loose powder. Applying it with powder brushes gives you more lightweight and natural look, but I recommend you use puff if you have oily skin because it lasts longer and control well oil on you face than using brushes.

• As we are still a student, we can't earn money for a living so I think 1,590 Baht is quite pricey. However, let's hunt it down if you can afford because it's worth for sure.

• If you have scars or pimples on face, I have to say sorry for this product that is not the right one. It's very lightweight so it can't really conceal any pimples or scars

.


Finally, I highly recommend such a great loose powder to anyone who's looking for the best natural and featherweight loose powder without any shimmery or glittery bits. It'll absolutely keep you feeling fresh all day and minimize oil on your face so you can be sure that your makeup stays the entire day. Even though it's expensive a bit as we're still a student, it's advisable to purchase this makeup item because we can use it for a long time.

For this product, I have rated it 4 out of 5 points because I think it gave me more advantages than disadvantages. 1 point was deducted from its packaging and price. I hope everyone will love this product as me when you get a chance to try using and I think I'll probably keep buying this item unless I find something better. Let's check it out!
