Translucent Setting Powder FAQs 

What is translucent powder? 

Translucent powder is often the last step of any makeup routine to set your makeup and absorb excess shine without adding any extra color. A truly translucent loose face powder is suitable for all skin tones and Our Translucent Pressed Setting Powder is designed for on-the-go touch-ups with a weightless, no flashback finish. 

What’s the difference between pressed and loose setting powder? 

Loose powders are great for precise, controlled application and are often used at home. Pressed powders are travel-friendly and ideal for touch-ups throughout the day. If you’re deciding between the two, explore our full Setting Products Collection to find the right formula for your routine. 

Can I use the Translucent Pressed Setting Powder on oily skin? 

Absolutely. The Translucent Pressed Setting Powder is designed to control shine and mattify oily areas without looking cakey or heavy. It’s perfect for setting makeup on oily or combination skin types.

What is a good drugstore setting powder?

Even the best drugstore setting powder won’t live up to our award-winning translucent loose face powder. Our iconic formula and different finishes put our setting powder in a category of its own. Discover the no flashback, 24-hour shine control, and natural finish of our high-end translucent powder. 

 What is mattifying powder? 

Mattifying powder is a powder formula that absorbs face oil. This is a great final step to your makeup routine if you have oily skin that tends to shine throughout the day. Choose between our loose or pressed matte powder for the perfect formula for you. If you do have oily skin check out our matte foundation options. 

What is a no flashback setting powder? 

Some setting powders rely on light pigments to bring brightness to your undereye area and high points of the face. In person, that may look good, but in photos, the flash will intensify that brightness, resulting in an unnatural look. We’ve created our translucent setting powder to be truly translucent so you can achieve the same shine control and all-day makeup setting without the bright flashback. The Light Catcher Setting Powder helps if you’re using dewy primer or dewy tinted moisturizer.

How does no flashback setting powder work? 

Our no flashback setting powder is ultra-finely milled and includes no silica, which is often the ingredient that acts as a light reflector when illuminated with flash photography. If you’re looking for the best loose powder brush to apply this product, check out our brushes and tools page. 

What setting powder should I use?

The right setting powder for you will depend on your skin type and skin tone. Sort each of our setting powders by formula or finish to determine whether you want a matte, natural, or dewy look and then be sure to choose the shade that best matches your skin. We promise you’ll never look back once you start using our cult-classic translucent setting powder.

What is a blurring setting powder used for? 

A blurring setting powder, like our Translucent Loose Setting Powder Ultra Blur helps smooth skin by minimizing the look of pores, fine lines, and texture for a soft-focus finish. It sets makeup while creating a lightweight, airbrushed effect. Pairs well with our Primers Collection for a flawless base. 

Can you use setting powder without foundation? 

Yes, setting powder can be worn alone to mattify skin, reduce shine, and blur imperfections for a polished no-makeup look. Pair it with our Tinted Moisturizers for light coverage and natural radiance.

What’s the difference between a translucent powder and a blurring powder? 

Translucent powders set makeup without adding color, while blurring powders also soften the look of pores and texture. Blurring formulas offer a more perfected, camera-ready finish. Use with our Flawless Face Brushes for seamless application.

More About Translucent Setting Powders

Loose Powder Vs Pressed Powder 

Loose powder is finely milled and designed for setting your makeup with a soft-focus, airbrushed finish. It’s ideal for locking in foundation and concealer, minimizing shine, and blurring pores—especially with Laura Mercier’s Translucent Pressed Waterproof Setting Powder Ultra Blur. Pressed powder, on the other hand, comes in a compact form and is great for on-the-go touch-ups. It offers more targeted control but can be slightly heavier depending on the formula. Check out all of our setting powders, including undereye brightener, visit our collection page.

Whether you want a peach setting powder, honey translucent powder, no flashback setting powder or a simple matte powder, we have the perfect formula for you. Sort our iconic setting powder by finish or formula for seamlessly tailored results that suit your skin’s needs.
