Laura Mercier Translucent Loose Setting Powder — 0.21 oz Blurring, 24HR Matte Oil-Control Finish

This cult-favorite loose powder delivers a natural matte finish while keeping skin comfortable and color-true from day to night. Formulated to suit a range of skin types—including mature, sensitive, and oily—this versatile powder is available in four translucent shades to flatter fair through deep complexions. It combines antioxidants, amino acids, and a botanical blurring powder to absorb excess oil, soften texture, and help makeup last without settling into fine lines.

How does this powder keep makeup fresh all day?

The formula absorbs oil and sets foundation to reduce shine and maintain an even finish for extended periods. Its ultra-fine texture diffuses light to minimize the look of pores and texture while staying invisible in photos.

• Oil-absorbing blurring powder for a matte surface
• Lightweight, non-settling finish that won’t cake
• No flashback in photos—stays color-true under camera lights
• Locks makeup to help extend wear up to claimed long hours

Will this work on mature or sensitive skin without emphasizing lines?

Yes—its fine-milled texture is designed to sit on skin without filling creases or accentuating wrinkles. The powder is fragrance-free and dermatologist-tested, making it gentle on sensitive skin while still providing a soft-focus effect.

• Never settles into smile lines or fine creases
• Fragrance-free and dermatologist-tested for sensitive skin
• Silky feel from amino acids and vitamin-enriched blend

Which application method gives the best finish?

For the signature result, use the Laura Mercier Velour Puff: press, roll, and tamp to set foundation precisely without disturbing coverage. For a lighter veil, a large fluffy brush can dust product evenly across the face.

• Press & roll with velour puff for targeted, long-wear setting
• Fluffy brush for a softer, all-over matte veil
• Tap off excess to avoid over-application and maintain translucence

How does this powder benefit different skin tones and types?

Available in multiple translucent shades, the formula blends seamlessly so it suits fair through deep complexions without altering foundation color. It’s formulated for normal to oily skin but works well on mature and combination skin types seeking oil control and a refined texture.

• Four translucent shades to complement a wide tone range
• Designed for normal, combination, and oily skin; supportive for mature skin too
• Helps blur pores and soften skin surface for a polished look

Who is this for? If you want a proven finishing powder that mattifies without chalkiness, prolongs makeup wear, and photographs naturally, this one’s made for you. It’s ideal for everyday users who need reliable shine control, makeup artists seeking a dependable finishing step, and anyone with sensitive or mature skin who doesn’t want a heavy or drying product. Use it to set concealer, lock foundation, or strategically soften shine across the T-zone for a smooth, camera-ready appearance.
