![]() ![]() ![]() I also really like their Loose Glow Powders which I use more as a highlighter (lighter shade) or bronzer (for the deep color). I use the classic Laura Mercier Translucent Loose Powder on a regular basis with their Powder Puff or a Powder Brush. Flawless Fusion Ultra Longwear Concealer is also in my top 3 for concealers ( swatches here) I alternate between 2N, 3N, 2W and 3W depending on time of year (as I tan easily), most of the time I wear the 3N or 3W which is good for highlighting, brightening the under eye or spot concealing.Flawless Lumiere Radiance Perfecting Foundation ( review here) is the best glow foundation tied with the Armani Luminous Silk, the Flawless Lumiere gives medium coverage and adds a nice glow without looking too dewy.Flawless Fusion Ultra Longwear Foundation is my holy grail long-wear foundation, it’s the best one that holds up in Florida heat and humidity, doesn’t irritate my skin and gives full but natural looking coverage, I wear Buff 3N1 most of the year.Tinted Moisturizer ( review here) is my favorite natural glowy tinted base that gives a nice polished look, I wear Sand 3N1 right now.Brands often reformulate and revamp and I have been really happy with all of the bases I’ve tried from the brand. I’ve written about the Laura Mercier Foundations countless times. They’re unscented and silicone-free for those looking for options suitable for sensitive skin. I don’t use them everyday as I think the foundations I have are quite good with lasting power and application, but I do think these are nice ones to try. All three will smooth the skin to give you better foundation application and help extend the wear. ![]() Out of all the new ones my top three are the Protecting SPF 30, Illuminating (when I want more glow) and the Perfecting. Since I use the Flawless Fusion or Flawess Lumiere Radiance formulas most frequently, I felt the new primers would all be compatible. If you find your foundation is separating on your skin I’d suggest looking at the ingredients and taking a look at what moisturizer or primer you are using underneath.Īll that said, I put all of the new Pure Canvas Primers from Laura Mercier to the test. For example I do think if you use an oil-free primer it might not be compatible with an oil-based foundation. ![]() As a good starting point, I’d recommend sticking with the same brand of primer and foundation as they usually make formulas that are compatible with their entire brand. While I do find many will smooth and prep skin and also extend the wear I think finding a good primer depends on your skin type and also what foundation formulas you wear. In my opinion there’s no one-primer-fits all formula. I have a love/hate relationship with most primers. If you like classic easy to wear looks and are in search of makeup staples I’m rounding up my favorites today. I’ve used them for years and even through numerous reformulations and revamps still find I use something from the brand almost daily. Some of you have asked for round ups by brand so I’ve decided to start with Laura Mercier. I get asked for my everyday makeup staples quite frequently and I’ve done several with a mix of brands. I have swatches of the new Caviar Stick Eye Colors and thought it might be a good time to do an updated round up of my favorite everyday makeup staples from the line. Today I’m doing a best of roundup of one of my favorite makeup brands Laura Mercier. ![]()
