It made me happy to read this post! I too have been using LM translucent, but in Canada, LM is really expensive. I recently switched to MAC's moisturecover concealer from LM's secret concealer, which is more than $10 cheaper. I'll be switching to this finishing powder next! So ya, sorry Laura, but maybe if you didn't charge a butt load, we wouldn't be switching...

Oh, thanks. For me the lf was a total bust. The plan was to use it under the eyes to make my concealer stick longer. Nice plan at least.

I feel like this might clear up the acne I've been experiencing on my t-zone lately.
Yep, my skin is more dry & very sensitive & I agree with what you said above! I've been using the powder for a while now - still love it & & still no breakouts
I still have yet to try the powder and the refine zone. I have been so congested and sick the past couple of days. I can't wait to see if it will help conceal my large pores around my nose.

Oh no! Hope you feel better soon.
I completely forgot I had the line filler! I'll have to give this a try tomorrow...

The new loose powder sounds great based on all the reviews i've heard so far.
I really want to try it, but I recently bought NARS loose powder and I already have MUFE's HD powder.. so for now i'll just wait it. i'm sure i'll end up buying it sometime in the future though
i ended up buying just the powder, and i am definitely getting a back up! it isnt perm in NZ yet. it goes really well with the studio sculpt foundation, i havent had to touch up yet!
