Laura Mercier Foundation Powder

Good oil control

Long-lasting matte look

Blends easily

Oil-free and non-comedogenic

Active Ingredients

All in all,

Laura Mercier Foundation Powder is a good compact powder that suits many skin types. There are only three shades available but the company now offers a new foundation powder with a wide range of shades for complicated complexions. This is a good product but only very few sellers still have it in stock so you need to hurry and buy one if you want to try it.
