LANEIGE Korean Neo Blurring Powder: Oil-Absorbing, Pore-Blurring, Smoothing Formula with No-Spill, Travel-Friendly Compact

Mrs K here: after a lot of back and forth with myself I decided to try this Laneige powder. During the Chicago winters I don't use much powder (52 year old, very dry, post menopausal skin) apart from an afternoon touch up on my nose. In every other month my skin goes full combination (yet remains dry, with all sorts of challenges). I do use powder to set my BB cream, and I've tried so many. This is a really exceptional powder. While I think the sort of Sputnik 60s retro/futuristic compact is almost too much, it's cute, and would look cute on a vanity, if that's your thing. I don't really care about the look of it. The silicone "mesh" inside the compact is pretty slick; the included powder puff is as soft as a kitten's fuzz, and again, secondary to the product itself, though quite nice. The powder is very, very finely milled, and whether applied with the puff, a mini triangle or a brush, only a tiny bit is needed to set your look or to touch up, and it vanishes into the skin. It absorbs excess oils and leaves my skin feeling like actual silk. It lasts for what seems like forever (I went to the gym and did a lot of cooking and other active stuff on a hot day, and I wasn't shiny when I got home, neither did my skin look flat or one-dimensional).Because so little powder is required to buff my skin I expect it to last for months and months; it's not irritating or drying, and I can't believe that I could love a powder at this age, but I do. It also gives that desired airbrushed effect; I feel like I'm walking around in good lighting. Just a really delightful and pleasant product that does what it claims to do, and very well. I recommend it highly.

I’m not sure why having skin that looks like you haven’t washed your face in a while seems to be popular these days. I understand wanting to glow. I don’t understand wanting to SHINE.This powder eliminates that SHINE that makes you look like you haven’t washed all day. Or maybe you have washed, but you just have oily skin, like I do.This powder is wonderful! All you need is a small amount applied after your moisturizer and you immediately have a beautiful, matte, shine-free face! I love it. They really great thing is that you don’t need to worry about matching this powder to your skin tone. If you are concerned about white cast, I’m not sure that this is the powder for you since it is white, but i feel like you use so little of it that it shouldn’t be an issue.This powder is lightweight, does what it says it will do quite well. I also love the container! I have nothing bad to say about this product. Lives up to the hype and I’m so glad that i got it when it was back in stock.

Honestly this product is FINE. It’s a powder. I don’t think it works miracles, just sets your make up and makes you look less oily.

To preface, my skin type is oily. Throughout the day, my forehead, cheek, and chin all become very oily, and I've been trying to find a powder to mediate that. I've gone through packs and packs of blotting sheets and just had enough. I saw a few influencers promote this and bought it on whim, but I'm SO GLAD I did. I've tried other powders before, and they've all washed me out (made my skin so much whiter) and had horrible flashback. This power is my new HOLY GRAIL. The powder is so fine and when I dab it onto my skin, it legit just smooths my skin out. It looks like I put a filter on-- my pores are gone. But the best part? My skin DID NOT GET OILY even after just ONE APPLICATION in the morning. I worked a 10 hour shift running around and when I got home at night, I patted my face and it was still dry! Absolutely insanity. TI will be reordering the refill whenever I run out-- this is my new favorite product.

Powder is good, not great. The dispenser is not great and I don’t like using a puff to apply as it pulls off my foundation.

Magic in a little case. Perfect for the "No Makeup, Makeup" look. Takes away the high watt shine without dulling the glow. I love that it is a loose powder, but it has a cool little membrane that only lets a bit of powder out at a time so it's not messy at all. Doesn't settle into fine lines or make my pores or texture more prominent. I use this over a glow serum, tinted mineral sunscreen and blush. fill in my brows and throw this on and BAM! 3 minutes and I look fantastic!

I tried this stuff out immediately because of the other reviews. I don't wear any other makeup such as foundation or anything that would be caked on the face because I want my skin to breathe. I just use a simple moisturizer (also Laneige) and then add this on top and they are not joking when they say it completely does away with the oily look and leaves a matte finish while still leaving your skin glowing. Amazing product and I will continue to buy!

First off, love the compact, however that’s where the good ends sadly. I applied the powder with the puff included, to the naked eye it looked not great but I could work with it, I decided to take a photo with the flash and I was SHOCKED!!!! I quickly applied some foundation just to test the powder so let’s just ignore the lack of blending. But HOLY whitecast and splotches of white dots from the mesh!!! I even took a powder brush to try and blend in the powder and it did nothing. I LOVE the skin care but this is a hard no from me.
