Velour Puff

The Laura Mercier Velour Puff is the applicator the brand built for its Translucent Loose Setting Powder — soft-textured, and designed to mould and conform so it picks powder up, holds it, and puts it down where you want it. If your setting powder has ever looked patchy or heavy, the tool is usually the reason.

What it actually does

• Picks up and holds powder. The velour texture is specifically made to grab setting powder, keep hold of it, and release it onto skin in a controlled way.
• Follows the shape of your face. It conforms to your contours, so the powder reaches the creases and curves a flat tool skips.
• Delivers the soft-focus matte finish. Laura Mercier created it to apply her Translucent Loose Setting Powder for exactly that result, setting makeup for lasting wear.
• Washable, so it keeps working. Clean it with mild soap, or put it in the machine inside a lingerie bag.

How to use

1. Saturate the puff with the Translucent Loose Setting Powder.
2. Tap the puff on the back of your hand to shed the excess before it goes near your face.
3. Press gently and roll. Use a rolling motion so the powder works into the skin and sets your makeup.
4. Judge it by what you can't see. The brand's own benchmark: you shouldn't see powder as you apply it. What you want is skin that reads soft-focus and matte.
5. Use it everywhere on the face — it's intended for all areas, not just the T-zone.

Questions

Does powder come with it?

No. This listing is the puff on its own — the Translucent Loose Setting Powder itself is sold separately.

How do I wash it?

Either by hand with a mild soap, or in a washing machine placed inside a lingerie bag so the velour is protected.

Why use a puff instead of a brush?

A puff presses powder into makeup rather than sweeping it across the surface, and the velour holds a controlled amount. That pressing-and-rolling motion is the technique Laura Mercier designed this tool around.

When will it arrive?

Delivery takes 3 to 21 working days, depending on availability. Stocked items ship at the shorter end; anything we order in for you takes longer. Working days don't include weekends or official holidays.

What can I pay with?

Credit card, debit card, Instapay and mobile wallets — cash on delivery isn't available.

Can I return it?

Only for items that arrive defective, damaged or expired, and the issue must be reported within 1 day of delivery. Verified claims are refunded to the original payment method within 15–30 days. Used applicators can't be returned for change of mind.
