Laura Mercier Candlelight Mineral Illuminating Powder

June 22, 2010
A rediscovered favorite: I featured Laura Mercier’s Mineral Illuminating Powders last October in my Color Focus: Neutral Sparkle & Glow post. I’ve pulled out my Candlelight shimmer powder again recently and have fallen back in love with it for a pretty soft nude-rose glow. More close ups and swatches. Works wonders on the eyes for an all over natural glow. Also pretty on the temples for a highlight.

Now if she would only release a tan-nude type shimmer! She has a lovely silver, pale gold and a deep bronze. I have been looking for a good caramel-nude-honey contouring shimmer powder.

Do you have a favorite loose shimmer powder? Or series of favorites? Please share!

    Wow, this looks really lovely. May have to add this to my wish list!

    I'm thinking you could maybe mix one of your Nakeds with this to create the color you want?

    Loose powders are always messy, but few are very pretty.
    I like Benefit's One hot minute…Also, I loved MAC Tenderdusk, but said good bye to it when it spilled inside my make-up bag.
    BTW, are you a fan of Guerlain's Meteorites?
