The price of this almost makes this a powdered highlighter instead of a setting powder. The two products are slightly different, but I don’t see how the price is justified. $6.3 per gram which is nearly triple the price (WTF?!). Then I also checked out the Laura Mercier Translucent Loose Setting Powder Glow as well and it was $67 for 29g of product which is approx $2.30 per gram. I would’ve expected something like 15 grams? I guess the packaging took most of its space. So when I looked at the actual weight of the product in this packaging, I was a little surprised that there were less than 10 grams (only 9g). However, after all the swooning over the beautiful packaging and yummy scent, I had a good look and did a quick comparison online with other loose powders (not just dewy of glowy powders), I noticed that stuff is hella expensive! It doesn’t control oil but at the same time it doesn’t make my skin look greasy if you know what I mean. It doesn’t have any glitter in it, but it looks iridescent. It gives me a nice subtle glow that makes me look healthy with that faint hint of pink. Overall, I really liked how the powder looked on my face throughout the day. Too Faced Dew You Fresh Glow Translucent Setting Powder Overall Ingredients: Mica, Synthetic Fluorphlogopite, Silica, Magnesium Myristate, C12-15 Alkyl Benzoate, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Coco-Caprylate/Caprate, Polymethylsilsesquioxane, 1,2-Hexanediol, Caprylyl Glycol, Tocopheryl Acetate, Tin Oxide, Ethylhexylglycerin, Fragrance/Parfum, Water/Aqua/Eau, Butylene Glycol, Aluminum Hydroxide, Cucumis Sativus (Cucumber) Fruit Extract/Cucumis Sativus Fruit Extract, Citrullus Lanatus (Watermelon) Fruit Extract/Citrullus Lanatus Fruit Extract, Magnesium Stearate, Phenoxyethanol, Titanium Dioxide (CI 77891), Iron Oxides (CI 77491). The talc-free formula reflects light and leaves the skin with a radiant, soft-focus, photo-ready finish. Set makeup, blur imperfections and brighten the complexion with these translucent, illuminating setting powder, infused with watermelon and soothing cucumber extract. This is the Too Faced Dew You Fresh Glow Translucent Setting Powder in Radiant Pearl (9g). This setting powder is $57 (I’ll get to the value of this and the LM in the last section.). I think they are so cute and I love the scent and also the packaging. I went for Too Faced because I simply love their recent fruity collections – Peach Perfect, Dew You, Tutti Fruitti. It’s either the Too Faced or Laura Mercier. I went into the Mecca store to check out some of the options for glowy setting powders, and there wasn’t a wide range of what I’m looking for. I have a handful of loose setting powders, some are mattifying and some are just plain translucent with no added shine control or glow. I have been wanting to get a dewy-look or a glowy-look loose setting powder because my skin has been behaving nicely and I don’t have much breakouts or bumps under my skin so I figured I could rock a bit of an extra glowy look.
