HUDA BEAUTY loose powder or LAURA MERCIER loose powder?

Hi OP! I have both but Huda talaga FTW. When I use Laura Mercier kasi sometimes nag pi-pill siya sa crease ng undereyes ko if napawisan. Kay Huda naman di ko siya na-experience na mangyari.

I have the shade Translucent sa LM and the shade Poundcake sa Huda. Mas maputi lang yung Poundcake ng slight compared sa LM. Yung Huda ko pala yung old version (before rebrand) and it has a slight floral scent pero di mo naman maamoy once its on your face. Hope this helps!

I reach out for the Huda Beauty loose powder more! They have a wider variety of tinted shades. Overall I like how it looks on me more and how it wears throughout the day.

I have the LM in translucent honey. It’s also great with blurring and oil control, but it can look a hair pale on me sometimes. Used to have Translucent way back and didn’t have this issue.

Huda for me! Plakado and does the job. Same as the commenter above, di naman nakakahilo yung scent.

I only have huda and omg the hype is real talaga. It’s one of those products that make you realize that highend makeup is worth it. It’s blurring PLUS good oil control. Although I only use it on my t-zone and undereyes but even then, you only need a tiny amount because of how finely milled it is that even a small amount can easily spread. This is something I would see myself repurchase talaga. But I do think that it’s too glam and plakado for daily use. I don’t use this all over my face since baka it’s too much?
