LORAC POREfection Baked Perfecting Setting Powder

I’m a powder foundation lover. I always hated the way liquid foundations feels. For the past 5 years or so I’ve used the Maybelline Super Stay Better Skin, but it has been discontinued and became harder and harder to find since they aren’t making new units. While slowly using up my stockpile of Better Skin, I’ve been trying SO many powder foundations, both high-and and drugstore brands, and even a few with Salicylic Acid in them like the Better Skin. None of them have come CLOSE to looking as good on my oily, acne prone, textured, problematic skin. Until now! This foundation is IT for me. Quick easy light medium coverage, great staying power, doesn’t settle into lines, make dry patches look worse, or separate on my skin at all even after wearing outside in 90 degree weather or for my 12 hour nursing shifts. I like to put some concealer on my discolored areas before this foundation to boost the coverage power, but that isn’t necessary for every day. It does still look and feel like you are wearing makeup (because you are) but it doesn’t feel or look too heavy or sticky or caked at all. The ONLY downside I have found so far is that the formula is a little bit dusty in the pan, so don’t go swirl your brush with a super heavy hand because you’re just going to make a mess and waste product. Also, it is a little bit on the expensive side (especially if you are used to drugstore products) but I’m willing to spend it for a comfortable good looking makeup routine. I love this foundation! I’m so happy I found it. I used the lightest shade in Better Skin, but I’m using shade 2 in this because shade 1 looked too yellow to me and I’m happy with my choice!

This provides the minimal/light coverage I need in the summer time. I wouldn’t reccomend if you’re seeking heavy coverage. I also use it as more of a setting powder with Laura Mercier Real Flawless Concealer.

I absolutely love this powder. It is by far the best I've used. My skin can be pretty sensitive & I'm prone to breakouts especially when it comes to makeup but this stuff never irritates my skin. Love it!

Didn't have my exact color. Please bring back deep.

I am in love! I’m very oily, tried everything & this is the only thing I have tried where I don’t have to blot or touch up! I wear it over my sunscreen, or can be used as a setting powder too! Def recommend if you are oily and need something to not worry about!

My favorite powder. Gives a gorgeous, silky finish with substantial coverage. I use this year round. I like to use this with a powder brush for lighter application, but if I need a heavier layer I will use a flat, round powder sponge/poof. I love how my skin looks and feels with this. I've tried so many powders and always come back to this. I used to be able to buy it at my local Ulta, but they've stopped carrying it for some reason. FYI my skin is combination, and I am fair with reddish pink undertones. I find this powder tones down weird colors my skin takes on sometimes. Strangely enough I have never used the liquid foundation from this line, instead I use 1 part NYX BB cream in shade Natural mixed with 1 part Bobbi Brown SPF 15 Skin Foundation in shade Porcelain and this creates a beautiful base upon which I use the porefection powder. One day I should try the liquid in this however and see how it does for my skin.

I found Lorac when on a thorough search for new foundation and powder once I hit an age at which my previous favorite didn’t work well. This powder is lightweight, has great coverage and doesn’t cake. My skin is dry so it is very hard to find. I’ve been using this for a few years now but was motivated to write a review today. I always wear foundation; even on weekend days when the workouts are in the AM, I use a great CC. I got to work, today, and (thankfully) checked my face. It looked different. I suddenly realized I had forgotten to put on foundation! How?! I have never done that in my life. I did the face cream, primer, eye concealer and even blush-no foundation. I live too far to go back home and come back, but may have. I keep this powder and a good brush in my purse, although I rarely need it. I put it on all over with the brush and used a lip gloss to touch up my cheeks. It worked! I couldn’t believe it. The coverage was good and it didn’t look really dry or cakey. (Sadly), our lights are flourescent so it stood a sturdy test.

Blurs the pores and gives a lovely finished look that lasts all day! Add a little blush and of course start with a good sunscreen and you'll look great every day!

… and gets into all the wrinkle crevices on my 70 year old face !! I actually love the product, and would never go out without a flick of that huge big brush round my entire face !!

El tono es perfecto para pieles muy blancas, desafortunadamente llegó destrozado

Produit est correct, il laisse un effet naturel sur le visage. Je me suis attendue à un produit plus matifiant donc je suis plutôt déçue Ne vaut pas le prix, on peut trouver d’autres produits avec la rendu similaire pour moins cher.

Polvere finissima, molto buona

Me encanto, deja la piel súper suave y se ve parejo el color, no se agrieta y tiene gran cobertura
