Beauty Pick to Try This Spring- Laura Mercier Translucent Setting Powder

Laura Mercier Translucent Setting Powder 

I tried this setting powder as a free gift from Sephora and I never went back! 

Here are a few pros and cons.

Pros:

-Available for many skin tones:I love that there are 3 different powders that stretch between a variety of skin tones. I use the word stretch because even though the shade honey may be a better fit for me, I tried the translucent powder first and it still worked! No super light flash backs or anything. The descriptions says that it works best for skin tones through medium. It definitely had me sold as I was skeptical about  the shade fitting my skin tone at first. 

-A little goes a long way. The size pictured is a mini and is lasts FOREVER!

-Easy to use: this is my first setting powder that I’ve used and it is super user friendly. It’s really hard to make a mistake because you can use it anywhere on the face. It’s virtually mistake proof.

-To state the obvious, it makes your makeup look so beautiful! Gives the prettiest finish and if you’re oily it will minimize that look as well.

-I have sensitive acne prone skin and have not had an issue using this. 

Cons:

-It is pricey. Even though it’ll last quite some time, the mini is $27 and full size is $47

-Does not come with a powder puff 

-This particular version is not talc free (there is a talc free version)

Below is a photo of me wearing it.
