I love that you can actually see the makeup on your skin! A lot of beauty gurus use a skin softening camera and bright ass lights! I always wish I could actually see what the makeup looks like in person! So thanks for keeping it real cuz I know it's not the most flattering to have the camera all up in your pores! Hahaha

@LoveMelisaMichelle 7 лет назад

cravemakeup87 hahaha girl right? But it's ok! Whatever I can do to help! Haha xoxo

@TMarieAus24 7 лет назад

cravemakeup87 I totally agree I'm like wait my skin it's clear but you can tell I have makeup on

@marlinabasir 7 лет назад

A DR there is someone by the name of hotandflashy I hope I got it right, she use lights but when she shows you, she zooms in.I really appreciate it.the rest, I only watch for reviews like top eyeshadows from drugstoreetc.that's it.cos like you said, those bright lights..to me they make everything look nice.

@jordanbronner3752 5 лет назад

I agree ! We all have wrinkles,pores and pigmentation. I really love how she actually shows how it performs on normal skin as opposed to showing us a bogus review with heavy lights and medium shots with soft focus/ blur filter. It drives me nuts when a guru is reviewing something and they use camera trickery my favorite is the pore primers Jesus ! It's nice to see a real guru for once

@TinaFa912 7 лет назад

It looks like the brightening powder covered the darkness better. You can definitely tell the difference. Beautiful makeup look!

@KarissaTeixeira 7 лет назад

The eye brightening powder works WONDERS for my under eye area! Especially since I have dark circles + eczema its so much more finely milled than the translucent one :) love love!

@afairysdreamm 7 лет назад

I honestly love the brightening powder better on you! I felt like the translucent brought out your dark circles more in my opinion. Now I'm not sure but it could be because it's being filmed. Maybe if I saw in person then I could see what you see because personally, the secret brightening powder took the win on this!!

@hdb80 6 лет назад

I do too!

@LilyanaLunny 7 лет назад

I'm so glad you did this video!! I've been dying to actually see the difference and the brightening powder definitely lifted and brightened the eye while the translucent sets the makeup/mattifies the skin. Love this video!

@carlos2372pmc 7 лет назад

LOVE LOVE LOVE THESE VIDEOS!! Thank for always keeping it real with us and your description on the products helped a lot!! Btw what lashes were you wearing on the first look????❤❤❤

@samantha_nicole1484 7 лет назад

@WhittniBubbles 7 лет назад

I honestly really loved the way the secret brightening powder looked on you vs the translucent powder

@lynngage7106 7 лет назад

I'm so happy you just did this, I was debating on Sunday which one to go with, so perfect timing before I bought one vs. the other.

@tashamarie9838 7 лет назад

I've been wanting to get one of these for the longest and could never decide which, so thank you so much for this video!

@jordanbronner3752 5 лет назад

Btw you're gorgeous and thank you for giving us an honest unfiltered review. It's refreshing to see a review on normal skin ( flawed,spots wrinkles etc) as opposed to using camera trickery like blur and soft filters and heavy lights. Thank you

@amandanena9318 7 лет назад

Omg yes! I feel like this is a video I always needed but didn't realize until now lol 👍👍

@tashvelez7286 7 лет назад

I feel like they both look the same, I can see the darkness thru both, but I actually think the translucent side looks a lil dryer directly in the under eye lines that we all have. Idk, but that's the only difference I see. Tho, I don't think either one looks bad. Another thing, I think maybe the secret brightening one shouldn't be used to bake, or like to pack on like u can with the translucent one. Maybe just to lightly set it and maybe it wouldn't look so ashy on medium to deeper skin tones. Thanks for this video girl. ❤

@IsaGuevara 7 лет назад

This was an awesome product throw down! Love it! Definitely going to go with the translucent! TY!

@alaiaadam5767 4 года назад

@aymar5865 7 лет назад

I'm so glad this video exists. I can't decide which one to purchase, i need to see the difference.

@JasminNicole_ 7 лет назад

Finally I needed this

@esme8694 7 лет назад

I have combo skin so I find it difficult to use a setting powder sometimes. The ones that say "all day" sounded so perfect, but in the end I would have to powder at least twice. Really love this video so hopefully you do more to help a girl out! much love! 💕

@amandachalfin7695 7 лет назад

This was freakin fantastic! 💋❤ So informative...I love the "battle it out" idea! Please do more! I LOVE the secret brightening powder, yet haven't tried the translucent. I am a bit lighter than your skin tone and have been curious about the translucent but this just helped me to stick to the secret brightening 👍 Thank you so much for your input and review on a fun "battle"!

@eianlis 2 года назад

Omg the eye makeup !😍😍😍😍

@jasminec6269 7 лет назад

So happy you're doing this! I've been wondering which one is better. I love the translucent but never tried the brightening one.

@biancagonzalez9353 7 лет назад

help my decision so much! love you. 💙

@Proxcreadora 3 года назад

Dude, thanks a lot I’m Latina tan color and i was just looking out to find which ones of those were better for my tone skin and this is exactly what I need! Thank u so much queen ☺️

@andreajxo7050 7 лет назад

Have you tried the Cover FX perfect setting powder? I like that one under my eyes more than the LM translucent and secret brightening bc those LM ones tend to be drying on me. The Cover FX is much smoother but more costly. I do use the LM translucent on my T zone tho bc I am oily. Secret brightening give flash back on me.

@merrj88 7 лет назад

Thank you for making this video! I thought it was just me, but i have the same issue. Whenever i use the brightening powder, i can still see my dark circles.

@karleygarcia1969 7 лет назад

Love your videos 😍☁️

@SelmaaC 7 лет назад

Thanks for sharing, just ordered my translucent powder!

@maddie3329 7 лет назад

I like the secret brightening powder better. The translucent powder made my under eyes look cakey no matter what I did. I'm very pale so the white doesn't bother me. I totally agree that the secret brightening powder could be to harsh if you have darker skin. She has the dark setting powder now and I heard that is really good for darker skin.

@sylvialopez5705 7 лет назад

Omg absolutely love this video 💞This helped me alot!!! I have dark circles! !!😢

@juliemccarter7201 7 лет назад

@alinamaritza4540 7 лет назад

Ok here are my thoughts I do agree with sticking to the translucent powder I can see the skin tone look you talked about for sure!!! Compare to the other side that had a small white cast thus was a great comparison!! You did a good job of going into depth between the differences Xoxoxo Alina M

@jjolivet101 7 лет назад

Hello Beautifyl, What color , and brand eye shadows are you wearing>?

@lissettecoreas2380 7 лет назад

Loved the video but I do think that I could see your dark circles under the translucent powder just a tad bit more than the brightening powder. Both looked nice though !

@perfectlyyoubeauty 7 лет назад

Have you tried the new cover fx Perfect Setting powder and how do you think it compares to Laura mercier translucent?

@nisi1227 7 лет назад

I just thought I should let everyone know that the secret brightening powder comes in 2 shades. sephora only carries shade 1 but Nordstrom carries shade 2 which is for med to dark. I love shade 2 it's amazing!

@BIGLBABYJ 7 лет назад

Haven't tried either of them yet! I'm Still looking for a good drugstore powder for my dry under eyes! mmm Loved the vid! thanks for the comparison! xoxo

@midence23 7 лет назад

Second thumbs up 👍🏼 love you 😘

@tamiam4367 5 лет назад

The loose powder dried me out like a prune after a month. I was actually getting dry , flaky, crepey skin. I loved the sheer cover and finished look it gave to my foundation. But I had to stop using it and my skin improved within a few days. Anyone else have this problem with LM loose powder?

@nicolegallegos699 7 лет назад

My bae Nicole loves the brightening powder, I tried it and I liked it. I like both. I'm using just the normal translucent powder right now. Enjoyed the video hun!!

@kirstytaylor4395 7 лет назад

I love this comparison! Im pretty fair but i have darrrrk undereyes & I totally agree with your comments on the secret brightening powder, it kindof highlights my darkness instead of what i want it to do haha so im team translucent 🤗

@Badgyaaallll Год назад

Would you also think that the concealer you use affects the powder? I would think so but both look really good on u

@Angelasimtethangsing 7 лет назад

It has its own purpose as the name of the products says. I love both ❤and I love you too😊

@LisaLeebeauty 7 лет назад

@VickyRyan2018 7 лет назад

I tried all different powders and compact powders under the eyes.... but once i heard a makeup artist in a work shop talking about the bobbi brown compact powder in the shade Golden that does really brighten and smooth the under eye area... i went out and bought it and since then it became my holly grail under eye powder

@99KuTpie 6 лет назад

Yosra Ryan Golden Orange?

@99KuTpie 6 лет назад

Or the loose powder in Golden?

@rosezahn1 7 лет назад

I loved the brightening more and I think it hides dark circles more! loved it just a bit more than the one you normally use :) translucent is more natural for sure

@fefeandthebadone 7 лет назад

I really like how informative this video is. Great job! Also I'm not sure if the secret brightening is the same size as the translucent travel size. The larger size is definitely cheaper if you compare how much you get even though is is around $10 more

@nicolawythe6214 6 лет назад

Very good video and break down x

@nicolawythe6214 6 лет назад

I can see darkness on your left side do it really does remove eye circles . Can’t you use the yellow one on top to remove the white

@emosike12 7 лет назад

Yassss, I love my Laura Mercier Translucent powder, sometimes I used it to bake my concealer and I use it to set my concealer all the time and nothing works better. My concealer legit doesn't move turn flaky and dry. I love it, not to mention Ive had mine for a while now and use it almost everyday still have a lot left.

@catracha504. 6 лет назад

Should I apply this after or before blush?

@ninaalvarado2015 7 лет назад

@IraStyles 7 лет назад

I'm an ivory light color and I did not like the brightening powder. It was white especially in pictures. But I love the translucent powder!!!! Repurchased it!!!!!

@amandaverduzco9722 7 лет назад

im a mac20 which one you recommend?

@marlinabasir 7 лет назад

I am trying this product too.you are really on point.You can't use white against black, you'd look grey.so for my under eye in still using my bobbi brown loose in pale yellow to set.what I like about the translucent is that I only need to use a little and even when i sweat, I look glowy vs bb loose which makes me look like the back side of my mother's pan after a long and hot day.I'm open to try another translucent if there is any that's better than laura m.

@richardlorenzo1968 7 лет назад

@thalialoera1 7 лет назад

you can compare blenders... as in the original Beauty blender vs real techniques blender or the tarte blender to the one from the drug store idk if loreal came up with one or another brand. or a blender vs the silicone blender

@amymurray5779 7 лет назад

Is your beauty sponge wet for setting?

@luvenlife100 7 лет назад

Personally I like the brightening powder better. I have the translucent but I guess I have a dry under eye area cause it looks dry AF when I use it but that definitely doesn't happen with the secret brightening powder.

@abundantlybeautifullife3881 7 лет назад

Mariela Barrera I totally agree... Secret brightening is way better. The translucent under my eyes ages me like crazy!

@anitramoore9514 3 года назад

Good to know for us old ladies! Lol thanks

@III-mu4yn 2 года назад

Did you use shade 1 or 2? If you used shade 1 than thats for fair to medium skin tones but you need shade 2. Thats one reason its not working out for you cause you need the right shade. Another reason is that you got to place the powder directly on the dark circle with a brush that can get in the nooks and crannies cause the blender just goes around the circle especially the way you're patting it which makes the dark circle look more noticeable since your mainly covering around it and not directly on it. The application of this product plays a big role

@LatinaBonita88 7 лет назад

Awesome video! Have you ever tried RCMA no color powder? Can you compare those 2 for a more affordable option?

@jackyohhhxo 7 лет назад

@EpicTatyana 7 лет назад

I think the translucent looks better on you! Have you used the Tarte Shape Tape? I'm using the Urban Decay Weightless Concealer in Med Neutral rn to highlight but I don't know what shade to get 😭 great vid babe

@brendalongoria2300 7 лет назад

Have you ever used the RCMA powered? If you have can we see a review on it please

@sociallyphobic 7 лет назад

I think maybe the bright lights in your room made it hard for you to tell which one was better but in my opinion the brightening powder covered the dark circles better than the translucent, but either way looked great!💖

@itsChewtoyou 7 лет назад

Try using the brightening powder after correcting with a peach concealer before using your regular concealer 🙌🏽👌🏾. It'll cancel that darkness out. I can't NOT use corrector lol

@christinaramos7314 7 лет назад

@Jennypenni8739 7 лет назад

I have fair skin with peach under tones and hated the brightening one. It also brouGht out my dark circles. Glad I got the small one too

@alinaibarra9644 7 лет назад

personally I like the brightening powder better. My skin tone is like yours. I don't bake with this powder because it looks to light on my skin tone. I tap my beauty blender ones on the powder and that's all use and love how it looks.

@BClemons06 7 лет назад

Maybe you should use a color corrector under your eyes for the darkness and either powder may work for you because it looks like the concealer you used didn't cover the darkness enough maybe those concealers aren't full coverage. I felt like you could see the darkness equally through both powders.

@glitzyglamish 7 лет назад

Did anyone use the brightening Powder for the entire face? did it work? :-)

@TampsPrincess 7 лет назад

@VaniNorie 7 лет назад

What lashes you use in this video...?

@extenebrislux 5 лет назад

I actually think the translucent brings out the darkness, and it makes it look a bit green-ish, considering the translucent has a slight yellow tint. but you use too much of both, you're not supposed to bake.
