I have a love-hate relationship with loose powders. I got into makeup at a time when options were…a lot more scarce than they are today. As such, I often found myself looking casket-sharp when all I was trying to do was learn how to properly bake my undereyes like all the cool girls on Instagram. Today, after years of trial and error, I’ve found my go-to brands that have nailed a fantastic powder formula. One of them is none other than Laura Mercier.
From my tried-and-true Translucent Loose Setting Powder in the shade "Honey" to the pressed version that the brand released a few years ago, Laura Mercier has undeniably luxurious formulas that make my undereyes look airbrushed. So, of course, when the brand re-released its Secret Brightening Powder, I had to give it a shot.
