Laura Mercier Ultra-Blur Pressed Setting Powder Translucent Honey — Talc-Free, 16HR Shine Control

Laura Mercier Ultra-Blur Talc-Free Waterproof Translucent Pressed Setting Powder in Translucent Honey is a lightweight, hyaluronic-acid infused pressed powder that controls shine, softens texture, and locks makeup for longwear without drying.

This compact setting powder blends soft-matte coverage with a natural finish. Designed to minimize the appearance of pores, fine lines and uneven texture, it uses a talc-free formula enriched with hyaluronic acid, amino acids and silica powders to deliver comfortable, non-cakey wear. The press format includes a plush puff for simple touch-ups at home or on the go.

How does this powder keep makeup looking fresh all day?

The formula combines oil-absorbing silica powders with lightweight film formers for extended wear that resists transfer and controls shine. It’s engineered to sit on top of foundation and concealer to maintain a blurred, even surface without settling into lines.

• 16-hour weightless wear performance to reduce midday touch-ups
• Waterproof properties that help makeup resist light moisture and sweat
• Press format for quick application and easy layering

Will this powder look cakey or dry out my skin?

No—this pressed powder is formulated to avoid a heavy or powdery finish. Hyaluronic acid and amino acids work with the powder base to retain a natural, skin-like appearance and hydrate superficially, preventing the chalky look associated with some mattifying powders.

• Talc-free composition for a finer, more seamless blend
• Hyaluronic acid helps maintain surface moisture for a softer finish
• Non-drying silica system that minimizes texture without stiffness

How should I apply it for the best results?

Use the included puff or a fluffy brush depending on the coverage you want. Press or sweep the powder onto areas that tend to shine—like the T-zone—or set concealer under the eyes. Build lightly rather than applying a heavy layer to preserve a natural look.

• Press puff for targeted setting and longer-lasting hold
• Buffing brush for an all-over soft-matte effect
• Layer over foundation or bare skin to blur imperfections without masking

Which shade is Translucent Honey best suited for?

Translucent Honey is designed to work as a translucent wash with a subtle warm undertone, helping to balance and warm light-to-medium complexions while preserving the foundation color underneath. It blurs and refines rather than adding noticeable pigment.

• Works well on light to medium warm undertones
• Neutral finish that doesn’t dramatically alter base makeup color
• Good option for touch-ups throughout the day without flashback

Who is this for? If you want a pressed, travel-friendly powder that softens pores and lines while controlling shine—without the dry, chalky feel—this product is built for you. It’s suitable for anyone seeking long-lasting, natural-looking mattification with light hydration from hyaluronic acid. Ideal for busy days, layered makeup looks, and quick handbag touch-ups.
