The Best Of The Translucent Powders… By Terry, Laura Mercier and Mac…

The best of the translucent powders… I have three for you… from By Terry, Laura Mercier and Mac.

Do you wear translucent powder? I admit I love it and wear it most days. 

 

Translucent powder is a product that gently sets the make up without altering the colour of the skin tone.

No oil, no smudge… but without looking dull.

 

How To

 A foundation brush is the most straight-forward to use as the bristles are tightly packed giving more control over the application of the powder.

  Sprinkle a little translucent powder into the lid of the container and load the brush with a small amount of translucent powder.

 

Press the translucent powder onto the face over the foundation, tinted moisturiser or bbcream.

To retain a dewy look, the powder is best applied to the t-zone, avoiding the cheeks.

* *tip**  If the smudging of eyeliner or mascara is an issue, dab a little translucent powder along the lower lash line to prevent this.

 

Like foundation… less is more when it comes to translucent powder. xv
