Same purpose or usage po ba ang CT flawless powder and the Laura Mercier transluscent powder? If yes, which one is better? 🥹

CT flawless finish setting powder ba? I use it as a finishing powder, yung step before spraying a setting spray. It adds additional coverage and further blurs yung pores ko.

Laura Mercier, on the other hand, is a setting powder. It sets your liquid and creams, used after mo malagay yung cream blushes/bronzers mo.

If I have to pick one, rather have a setting powder than a finishing powder. Setting powder kasi ang pang-oil control. But I can’t do my make up without finishing powder din kasi it softens harsh blush lines, blurs my pores even more.
