- Hey Beauties!!!
Today I finally did the showdown between all the new powders that I got. Are any of them a La Mer The Powder dupe?
Hope you all enjoy!

You were smart to get a few backups of the LaMer powder. Quite often the new and improved formula isn't as good as the original. Also, they may change the packaging to a smaller size. The Nars Light Reflecting Loose Powder is one of my favourites. I use it to set my under eye concealer. It's very sheer and light and not at all cakey looking. I also love that it doesn't have any obvious shimmer particles.
Love the freckles!! I just ordered the By Terry Hyaluronic Powder to use under eye based on your recommendation. I have mature skin so I need something that doesn't cake up or accentuate fine lines. I'm trying not to use too much of my La Mer since I didn't get a backup before they sold out. It drives me nuts when companies take great products that everyone loves and reformulate them - they never work the same!! I'm going to try the Lancome too.
Random comment. I get super happy every time I watch your videos and see your subscription number getting higher 😊
that comment made me smile...really big :)
Wow! You bought all the powders I wanted to try! When I finish my La Mer powder I will buy the By Terry one. Honestly I don't love La Mer powder for finishing, because I look "powdery". I only use for setting my concealer. The hourglass powders have chunky glitters (I have diffused light and I can see the glitters). All in all I'm still looking for my perfect powder that doesn't show up on my skin. So maybe the by Terry one is the best thing I can get.
The By Terry is really nice! Just don'y apply too much :) XOXOX
You should try the Nars Light Reflecting LOOSE Powder. I tested a lot of different loose powders, and this was my favourite. It's very sheer and light and doesn't look powdery on the skin. Ask for a sample the next time you're at Sephora.
+Michelle Kelly will do!' 😍
I love the by terry also for setting! It's sooooo fine and doesn't make my dry skin look Cakey or powdery. I keep trying new ones but come back to it again And again. I've never tried the la mer but hope they bring it back because I'm definitely interested. THanks for the great comparison!!
Have you tried the Nars Light Reflecting Loose Powder? It's really nice! I discovered it when looking for a powder to set my under eye concealer. I wanted something that wouldn't make my concealer look cakey and dry. This was my favourite. I haven't tried the By Terry one, so I don't know how it compares.
Try the Lancôme Absolue radiant smoothing powder, gives a beautiful finish
You need to try DuWop Mattillume Purifying Translucent Powder/ Lighter. It mattifies while providing a subtle luminosity to the skin. Most importantly, it diffuses the appearance of fine lines. I've been using this for year's. Not one powder has yet proven to beat this!! Can't beat the price at $36. Love your ink and that hair. My best friend is fully tatted. I have one but plan to get two or three more. lol
T.LeClerc is the French powder that got everyone over the moon for the Banane shade. They make an Abricot that has that apricot hue with light reflective brightening. It's nowhere near the price and easy to find.
Thanks!
I used to use that, the LeClerc powders are some of the very finest, no surprise as it's a French line.
I just got a LeMer powder last week at my Nordstrom and they said that it is just being repackaged but it will be back.
Digging the freckles!
First video of yours I've watched. You are gorgeous & I love your style! If I was 30 years younger😉... I appreciate your honesty on products. You are fabulous on camera!!
Hmm I have new powders to try! I got the La Mer one when I watched your videos 😊
Great video! Lancôme has a radiant powder called the Absolue Powder Radiant Smoothing Powder. I think Jaclyn Hill mentioned it recently in one of her videos.
I was really hoping that one would make it into this video! I trust her opinion way more than Jaclyn's...
I have switched to the Chanel loose finishing powder and am super happy with it! And it's quite a generous amount for the price.
Go try givenchy Prisme Libre powder, amazing , extremely finely milled, I like it better than lamer. Sadly , crazy expensive , it is 56$ for 12g,.42oz.
I decided to get the Sisley Phyto Loose Powder in #4 for women of color. However, I found it way cheaper in Europe which was a great find. I was going to get YSL Souffle powder for $60 which does give a matt flawless finished. Lauria Mercier gives my under eye a very dry look but not my face, so I had to find another setting loose powder for my under-eyes. I also purchased My Luxury 1ST which hand makes their own loose powder for all skin tones. great video
The Good Life did you end up liking it for baking?
I do not bake because I use Dior Nude Skin foundation which looks like my natural skin. I use Sisley Phyto Loose Powder for setting my under eye areas and face.
Always trust your review and opinion , thanks for this video !!! You are the best ❤️
Looking beautiful then and now! 💪🏻👍🏻⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🤟🏻
I was told bother the powder and foundation were being reformulated. Guess we will see. I've heard great things about the ByTerry and a Lancôme illuminating powder. I have dry mature skin so I'm very careful with powders. Love my LaMer. Thanks for the video. You look fabulous.
A guy who works at my Nordstrom LaMer counter told me that they are not reformulating it but instead changing it to a smaller packaging along with doing something to their concealers, as well. He said the powder is sold out everywhere and that they pulled any remaining open jars ( I was trying to snag a sample) off the shelves. He said that it and the concealer are coming back this Fall.
Spoke with a La Mer consultant and they are reformulating The Powder! How it will be, we'll see.
I have been watching your videos in front of my hubby! I'm waiting for his side eye...it's what happens right before he says...go ahead order it! I've been watching the Josie Maran Foundation video almost everyday for a week!!!! Love ya Mel! I feel I have u always to answer questions & ur knowledge is insane! I trust u...I've been spreading the wit about you still...I try to mention u as my fave in other comments so anyone w/?'s can check u out! Your a doll! And a fellow step Momma I understand!!!! That's what makes u more bad ass!
Thank you so much for your continued support! You have no idea how much that means!!!!!
Hey hey they are coming out with a reformulated version this fall my friends at Lamer told me. I work at Nordstrom. I did buy a back up too lol
Thank you!!!!! I’ve been looking for a dupe for so long gonna go Sisley counter tomorrow morning!!! 😄
Can you do a video on your makeup kit and how to clean false eyelashes
Hi Mel!!!! Just got around to watching this video. Thank you so much for finding a similar dupe. Great video! Thanks again! 😘😁👍🏻
No problem! XOXOXO
The freckles are too cute, I'm kinda obsessed lol
I love freckles! I wish a had them!
I love your lashes. Can you tell me what you had on?
I get soo happy when you upload a new video, you are awesome! Such a great inspiration source!! 👍🏻👌🏻 I looove your lashes in this video, what kind of lashes do you use? Love the freckles too!! So fresh and cute!! 😘😍
You're so sweet! Thank you!!!
I used Salon Perfect 615s in this video!
Try the hourglass, dermablend, Bare minerals, thrive, Charlotte Tilburg, IT Bye Bye or Celebration powders.
You are the only video for Sisley Phyto Loose Powder; amazing....high-end products are not getting a lot of videos made on Dr. CZcams.
Love your channel. Have you ever looked into the lancome absolue powder. I love that powder it's very soft and I feel it has that radiance your looking for.
I'm going to try to get my hands on it this week!
you should try the cover FX Illuminating setting powder
I am so interested in this powder. Have you tried it before? If you have did you like/dislike it? 😊
+Amber Barton I like it it's really soft to the touch on the skin
+Angelica Mondragon awesome! Thanks!!
What brand/style is your tank top???? I really like it because of the high neck line!!!!
that's one of my FAVORITE tanks!!! It's Obey and I got it from Buckle, recently :)
Can you use setting powder as a finishing powder to buff or are they too heavy?
I have tried to find the lamer powder and can't find it anywhere. I no you say it's going to be discontinued but you can still get it. Where do you find the powder?
I got mine at Nordstrom...it's sold out online now tho.Maybe in some stores?
❤
I would like to try the la prarie powder I don't have a store close that sells it I would have to order I'm nc35 would you recommend translucent 1 or 2 ? Thanks 💓
Do you think can you make video for setting spray too please😍😍😍
what differences do you think are between laura mercier translucet and la mer powders... i have laura mercie and debating about la mer// THANK YOU
La Mer is much more Radiant...Laura M is more matte :) Hope that helps! XOXOX
There must be a way to contact La Mer either via their website "contact us" section or a customer service phone #. Then you can find out for sure if the powder is being discontinued or reformulated or repackaged. Put your mind at ease by doing that, what do ya think? That's what I would do if I loved a product that much and was hearing rumors about it being taken away. I hope for your sake that it's just a case of repackaging.
I've called, done the online chat and spoke with sales reps.... They aren't consistent lol.
Puffins Wife I'm going to see what I can find out for you....I feel for ya :)
Puffins Wife I called and they said it's being discontinued, as you were also told. Additionally, I wrote them an email asking about it, and I never heard a peep back from them. Awesome customer service, right? I mean, their products are extremely expensive so you'd think they would really be on top of things from the customer service end, but sadly not in my case. I feel for ya, I know how it is to have a favorite product and then NOT have it. At least you found a close dupe with the Sisley (spelling??) powder.
I'm pretty sure when I first subscribed u were barely @ a 1,000....Have u seen how many subs u have now!!!!!👏👏👏👏😬🤗😍💐
It's exciting!!!!
Which shade is your sisley powder? I saw that there is at least 4 shades/finishes. Thanks dear
01 Irisee :)
Are the salon perfect lashes straight like the Mac 35's, I have a hard time with the lashes?
Have you tried 35s recently, all my new ones have a curve to them now
And the salon perfect ones def have a little curve to them... Not perfectly straight
Hey love I think a great dupe for it would be -- ABSOLUE POWDER -- Radiant Smoothing Powder, it's by Lancôme! Look it up I think that's someone very similar!! Hope that helps! Xo
I'm going to try to check it out
+Puffins Wife I work for Lancome and the Absolue powder in shade Golden try very illuminating
Have you tried the Lancôme ABSOLUE POWDER Radiant Smoothing Powder? I have seen from other You Tubers that it is a GOOD powder.
I'm going to try to grab it this week!
Mel, can you please tell me if you prefer the Sisley over the new, reformulated La Mer The Powder? I'm getting ready to order one or the other!!
I'd also like to know if you've tried the Sisley powder that is actually radiant?
I like the Sisley one better and it's radiant :)
Puffins Wife
Thanks so much❤
hey girl (I am from Ginny's) I love the Lancome and the Sisley for the radiance of the two! I am an og La Mer powder lover (wayyyy back when there was more than 1 shade). I think Normal-Dry skintypes will LOVE the Lancome Absolue and the Sisley!
What foundation, and power is good for pictures, my weeding is next week 🙂🙂😊
Something without sunscreen for sure! I love the MAC waterproof the best...you can thin it out, if you don't want too much coverage, with a damp beauty blender. I also use MAC MSF natural on a lot of brides
Puffins Wife - How would you compare "finish/effect" of the La Mer powder to the Hourglass Ambient Light Pressed Finishing Powders?
VERY similar...the only thing with the hourglass is that the lighter ones are my favorite, but they will definitely lighten up the foundation more. The others are a little too pink and will also alter the look.
Was this video done before you got the Lancôme peche? Where would you rate that??
Yes.
la Mer and Sisley... Then peche. But really, they are all pretty equal. Peche is just a tad more radiant so if you want to be super glowy, that one would be best
+Puffins Wife THANKX
How does the Lancôme absolue powder (I have shade peche) compare to the powder?
Very similar....but I like the absolue powder better than the new la mer
Do you still think the Lancôme shows more texture than the la mer? Which shade do you use in he absolute powder?
What color do you use in the Sisley? Nordstrom lists 4 shades.
Irisee ❤️
You're adorable! What lashes do you have on???
Thank you! Salon Perfect 615
When I was a teen and in my twenties, I hated my freckles. I hate them even more now in my thirties since they've become more like sun spots 😢 And freckles are a trend these days 🤦🏻♀️
LOL, that's usually how it happens. It kills me to see girls that want me to cover their freckles....they are so beautiful. I have sun damage, it's the worst. Hydroquinone has done wonders for me tho
Super love your videos!! I also was wondering if you've tried the Cover FX Illuminating powder? I would love to hear your thoughts on it 😊 It's loose and says illuminating - that's all I know about it. If anyone has tried it please let me know pros/cons.
I found that it emphasized my pores :(
+Puffins Wife oh dang it! No thank you than... Haha. Guess I will have to wait for the new formulation of La Mer 😊 thanks for replying! Hope you have a wonderful day!!
Love your lipstick color. May I know the brand and the color?
Thank you!!! Bite Beauty, Honeycomb
Thanks
you are beautiful love your video...new subbie here !!! hugs from toronti
Toronto .... (ughh auto correct)
Thank you! XOXOXO
Why you didn't talk about the la prairie powder? 😞
That powder doesn’t look good on me, I’m not sure why. Looks kinda cakey. It’s been a while since trying it... maybe I will try it again
Sisley powder in France at Sephora is 60€
DANG!!! It's not at Sephora here and it's def not that cheap :(
I looked for the sisley powder and it has various shades, which one is yours?? I love your channel :)
Irisee 😘😘😘😘😘
Thank you :)
W3LL PEOPLE Bio Brightener Invisible Powder....Have you tried this one? Appreciate your thoughts..always! :-)
Little Miss I have, I did recently in a GRWM... it's not bad but I haven't used it since. Definitely not a dupe 😘😘
Puffins Wife too bad...just purchased it...hopefully it'll work for me but thanks for your input!
I would like to try the la prarie powder I don't have a store close that sells it I would have to order I'm nc35 would you recommend translucent 1 or 2 ? Thanks 💓
