- LAURA GELLER Baked Balance-n-Brighten Powder Foundation – Medium

I genuinely love this product! Some background: I have combination skin and often have difficulties finding a good color match due to time faded freckles all over my face. I am in my early thirties and I feel like my skin is in that weird in between phase where I am starting to get a few fine lines and my skin is starting to lose a little bit of its glow. I want to make sure I’m using products that are going to be gentle as my skin ages but also help me get some serious natural looking glow back. So I’ll list the reasons this product is now my everyday go to! 1. The coverage is buildable and isn’t heavy. I also have the kabuki brush and I like that I can have variations of coverage in different areas and it will all still blend together seamlessly. 2. I use a liquid concealer for my eyes. This powder blends over it well and doesn’t cause the concealer to cake up underneath like some other products I’ve tried. 3. The blurring and brightening effect is just beautiful! It has given me my natural glow back. 4. I use shade medium and I find it works very well with my freckles and complexion. It doesn’t mismatch my neck or look too light/dark. ANDDDD it doesn’t show up orange! Big win! 5. I don’t really need to use liquid foundation anymore because I get such good variation in whatever coverage I want. 6. Touch ups are very easy. I can go from less coverage during the day to simply adding more coverage at night before I go to dinner or anything like that. 7. Easy to travel with. I have started keeping it in my bag every day. 8. It doesn’t irritate my skin. 9. For a powder, it holds well throughout the day without clogging your pores. I don’t need a setting spray. 10. Because of the formula’s versatility, I feel that this is a great powder for ALL age types. My mom (age 65) now uses it and so does my younger coworker (age 26). Overall, great quality, versatility, broad coverage range, brightening, shade matching, and skin gentleness. Pricing is very reasonable as well. I’m truly grateful I found this as my new everyday foundation!

love this, simple, easy, fast, works, does that it says, not cakey, doesn't break me out, not heavy, lightweight, no shiny or dry face. I've been struggling finding a foundation for my aging skin years. I am really happy with this makeup.

I bought it on sale, and I don't think I'll go back to using any other. Great coverage. Doesn't dry out my skin, make it oily, or break me out. It's not too heavy and easy to apply. Looks so natural too

I got the Porcelain shade for myself and the Medium shade for my mother-in-law. I'm in my 30s and she's in her 70s. She likes this foundation more than I do and says it works really well with her skin and texture. The reason I didn't like it very much, even though I used up the whole product, is because it accentuated my pores too much, no matter how I applied it. I have oily skin so I figured this powder foundation would work well for me, but it just sits on my skin and never fully looks or feels like belongs there. I ended up using it to set the full coverage concealer that I put on my neck to hide some scars, and it actually works nicely for that purpose.

I’m loving this baked powder foundation. I’ve never tried a powder foundation because I assumed there was no way it would work as well as liquid. Boy was I wrong. I put it on at 10am this morning. It’s now after 11pm and my makeup still looks fresh and as if I just put it on. It hasn’t worn off at all! Further, I have very oily skin and often apply powder several times a day. But I haven’t needed to apply powder even once today. Even my nose has remained oil free. I put it on dry at first, then put the other half on wet - but I didn’t really notice a difference either way, so I’ll probably apply it dry from now on. The coverage is great and gives an even, matte finish on my skin while lightly covering some sun spots I have on my face. And the color is a perfect match to my light, but slightly tanned skin. Today is the first time I’ve used it, but so far I am blown away and wish I’d tried it years ago. The price is a tad high if you’re on a budget, but it’s well worth it now that I’ve used it. I’ll be curious to see how long it lasts though. Regardless, I highly recommend and am super happy with this purchase.

Just got this in the medium. It's a bit dark. Should have went lighter but I blended it in in so it looks like I have a mild tan. Anyway this is ok to run errands or the grocery but I would never wear this to work or a public function or anything like that . It somewhat evens skin tone for a matte finish so you don't look shiney or oily in public but I wouldn't buy this again. I felt like you had to keep putting it on to actually stick to the face .

I recently tried the Laura Geller New York Mineral Baked Facial Powder, and I’m really impressed by its overall performance. The powder has a silky, lightweight texture that blends effortlessly into the skin, leaving a natural and radiant finish. I especially appreciate that it doesn’t feel heavy or cakey, even after a full day of wear. One of the standout features is its baked formula, which gives the powder a smooth consistency and a subtle luminosity. It works beautifully for setting makeup or as a finishing touch to even out the complexion. I found that it reduces shine without making my skin look flat, which is perfect for creating a soft, airbrushed effect. The color payoff is buildable, allowing for both a light dusting or a more polished look, and it seems to work well across different skin types. Plus, it stayed in place for hours without oxidizing or emphasizing dry patches. Overall, I would highly recommend the Laura Geller Mineral Baked Facial Powder for anyone looking for a dependable, natural-looking finishing powder that enhances the skin’s glow without feeling heavy. It’s a great addition to a daily makeup routine and definitely worth trying.

I love this stuff. I have been using it on and off for years. Now that I am in my late 30's this works better for my skin. I have large pores and oily skin, when I wear foundation it tends to cake up (even my favorite foundation) now that I am older. Using this powder does not dry my skin out, my skin does get oily throughout the day but I use blotting paper for that. This powder does not settle in my pores and does not make me break out. It's not 100% coverage but it makes your skin tone blend. I also have milia under my eyes and this helps decrease the prominence of them.

Lo utilizzo da anni super

Was sooo looking forward to this product after seeing the reviews and also going on their website.. the color to light for my skin tone and the powder makes my skin look very powdery and dry. Don’t like it at all, such an pity cause I thought it’s my foundation problem solved

Wenn man keine flüssige Foundation benutzen möchte, ist das Produkt wunderbar. Es deckt gut ab.

Great coverage and still light feeling on the skin. I gave it a chance and so glad I did. The advertising is actually correct!

Love this product, covers just as well as liquid foundation, the colour medium is perfect, gives my face a break from liquid foundations, on its own or I sometimes use a light cover over foundation for a flawless cover, its just perfect....worth the money. I use a few different shades light for winter, medium summer, and a few darker shades to use as bronzer....
