Laura Mercier Translucent Loose Setting Powder — 1 oz, 24HR Matte Finish & Oil-Control, Blurring Non-Cakey

Laura Mercier Translucent Loose Setting Powder is a lightweight, non-cakey finishing powder that locks makeup in place with a long-lasting matte, shine-controlling finish.

This cult-favorite finishing powder is formulated to set foundation, reduce shine, and blur the look of pores without flashback or settling into fine lines. Available in four translucent-adapting shades to suit fair through deep tones, it blends antioxidant vitamins and amino acids with a botanical blurring powder to create a skin-friendly, breathable mattifying veil.

How does this powder keep makeup matte all day?

The powder absorbs excess oil and stabilizes foundation to reduce shine for extended wear. Its ultra-fine texture creates a blur effect that helps makeup stay color-true and photo-ready from morning until evening.

• Formulated to control shine for up to 24 hours without cakiness
• Micro-fine particles disperse oil and minimize visible pores
• No flashback in photos—suitable for cameras and flash

Will this work on mature or sensitive skin?

Yes—its lightweight, fragrance-free formula is designed to be gentle while avoiding heaviness that can settle into lines. Dermatologist-tested and crafted with skin-compatible ingredients, it aims to preserve a soft, natural finish without irritation.

• Fragrance-free and dermatologist-tested for sensitive skin tolerance
• Never cakey—formulated to avoid emphasizing fine lines
• Vegan-friendly formulation with vitamins C and E for antioxidant support

How should I apply the Laura Mercier Translucent Loose Setting Powder?

The signature press-and-roll method with the Velour Puff delivers the most even, long-wearing results. Tap off excess powder, press the puff into the skin, and roll gently to set foundation without disturbing coverage.

• Saturate the velour puff, tap to remove excess product
• Press and roll onto skin—avoid sweeping motions that can move makeup
• Use sparingly in textured areas and build only where needed

What ingredients help blur and protect the skin?

This finishing powder combines a botanical blurring powder with amino acids and antioxidant vitamins to create a silky feel while helping even tone visually over time. The result is a softer-looking complexion and reduced appearance of pores without heavy coverage.

• Botanical blurring powder for a soft-focus effect
• Amino acids to support a skin-compatible texture
• Vitamins C and E provide antioxidant benefits in the formula

Who is this for: The Laura Mercier Translucent Loose Setting Powder is ideal for anyone seeking a reliable, non-flashback mattifying finish—especially those with normal to oily or combination skin, people who prefer lightweight products that don’t settle into lines, and makeup lovers who need long-wear, camera-ready results.
