Laura MercierUltra-Blur Talc-Free Waterproof Translucent Pressed Setting Powder, 16HR Weightless Wear and Shine Control, Hyaluronic Acid Infused for 24HR Hydration, Natural Finish, Includes Puff

Powders are not my thing. With advancing age, enough settles in wrinkles. This is a gossimer product. If you are going to use powder, this is the one. So finely milled that it is not obvious at all, but gives that indescribable finish.

This isn't particularly drying at all. Powders are notorious for causing creases as we age, and our once elastic skin becomes crepey. This is a compressed powder with the provided puff in the lower level of the pretty mirrored compact. I saw the lovely video that shows the application and the blurring effect. I was struck by how easy it is to get my face to look good with this product. I have been using loose powders. The makeup I love is a color-correcting foundation that is inexpensive but looks moist and dewy. It is a bit shiny because of the SPF sunscreen protection. It isn't a cover makeup, and it works best with the help of a concealer product and this powder.It is a bit pricey, but it is all it advertises. It should last a while, and slipping into my carry-on or everyday bag is easy. This can be a great gift on its own, and I like to sometimes add a couple of related items for a self-care package. I need to send gifts to long-distance relatives via Amazon's gift service with a personalized greeting. But gifting is the ultimate thing in person because you can see the smiles.This is a great item to please you and your loved ones.Enjoy!

I absolutely love this powder—it delivers a smooth, flawless finish that enhances the overall appearance of my skin. It feels lightweight and comfortable throughout the day, providing a natural look without feeling heavy or cakey. This product has quickly become a staple in my makeup routine.

Loving this powder. It really does avoid settling into the wrinkles at the corners of your eyes. A nice light-coverage blurring powder.

USED PRODUCT!

I was very unimpressed by this Laura Mercier Translucent Pressed Ultra Blur. The whole product just felt cheap to me. The compact is very light and flimsy and the applicator is very thin. Not at all what I was expecting from a higher priced powder. While the color of the powder was translucent as described, it did not apply like I wanted it to and went on blotchy. It felt like an old product. I would not purchase again.Box did come safety sealed and notes that it was made in France.

Blends well with foundation

This is definitely transparent. It gives you a nice, soft glow. I have oily skin, so nothing really helps make my makeup last ALL day, but this does a decent job. I also have sensitive and acne prone skin and I didn't seem to make me break out.
