Review & Comparison | NEW Laura Mercier Honey, Translucent & medium deep on Dark skin
Hey Everyone
In today’s video I have decided to film a review and comparison video featuring the new Laura Mercier Translucent Honey, Translucent & medium deep on dark skin. I have done a side by side using all three powders to compare which suits dark skin the best. With the main focus on the discussing the new Laura Mecier powder in the shade Translucent Honey I also swatched another few of my go to powders to compare if the shades are similar, such as : Beauty bakeries baking powder (plantain) Huda beauty baking powder (kunafa) colour pop setting powder (banana) & fenty beauty pro filter powder (honey).
Hope you enjoy :)

Happy Sunday everyone! I cant believe I've hit 10k 🤩🤩🤩😭😭😭😭😭 thank you to each every one of you! I am so happy and blessed to be here with you guys, I truly appreciate everyone that's join the Sydassz Crew ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@olatomiallison6373]

Congratulations on all your success so well deserved!! Onwards and upwards 🤗

[@sahanas4443]

Congrats girl youve worked so hard for this xx

[@BeautyWithTam]

A whole 10K YESSSSSSS! Super happy for your girl - 🥂Here’s to another 10 sis and much much more! Great review also - I absolutely love the honey powder and the feel of it! I totally get you in-terms of it not being a true or deeper shade of honey. X

[@miss.sydz91]

Thank you so much 💕

[@miss.sydz91]

Thank you 😊

[@shanniemars2406]

I noticed alot of people say the same thing about medium deep 🤷🏾‍♀️ saying it's too dark and rich/red undertone but I think is perfect!

[@miss.sydz91]

Yeah same! And I'm like errrrrrrrrr I like it 🤣🤣 thank you for watching ♥️

[@olivia23]

Yes that’s because they use it as a under eye setting powder. And i’m like uuhhmm its a dark powder what do you expect??? So dark skinned ladies shouldn’t have a powder that machtes ???

[@shanniemars2406]

@@olivia23 🤣🤣 yeah... But I think medium deep on deep/dark skin to still works well. It may not be as brightening as a translucent powder but it does something x

[@teefosterx4398]

I love it

[@Soblski]

I think it is more of an undertone problem because i’m really dark skin (almost like Nyma Tang) and the medium deep is to orange/reddish and doesn’t work for my skin color because I have more of a neutral undertone I was also very surprised at first that the translucent one looked better on me than the medium deep, but that’s because it suits my undertone better. I definitely wanna try the new honey one tho, looks like it can be the perfect compromise between too « bright » and too « orangy » for me.

[@louisea4920]

I like the shade medium deep. It’s not brightening persay but I just use bright concealer like you do. I’m surprised how light honey is tho! Very underwhelming. Thanks for this video x

[@MaureenMurphy_]

I generally love the deep powder. It works good for me and I don’t really like the highlighted look. I always get flash back

[@miss.sydz91]

Yeaaa I feel you on that!!

[@kaamya921]

Laura Mercier is the setting powder I keep going back to. I got the original pretty soon after it’s release, which is different for me. I watch a product for a while before I buy it. But this powder was so hyped, and looks so good on reviews that I got it and was not disappointed! My undereye looks Flawless when I use it and it last without looking dry and cracked up. I never got it in Medium Deep because I felt that the translucent did the job great. I got it in Honey, and I still love it. Whether I Love it more than the translucent I’m not sure. But I’m thinking of getting the Medium Deep for the rest of my face, I’ve only used it for my undereye, but I want my whole face to be flawless so why not!

[@miss.sydz91]

Yeah I completely understand where you're coming from, I honestly love this powder it's so amazing 😭😭

[@samantharaebae126]

You did what needed to be done. This was EXACTLY what I was looking to find out. Thank you for this video!!! 💯💯💯

[@Brunellesp]

I have the medium deep powder and I'm sure it put of date but, I'm definitely not throwing it away!

[@miss.sydz91]

Me either!!

[@Missimsoblue]

I think we have a similar complexion and I also use medium deep as my holy grail to set my under eyes too girl! I always feel like banana shades are too bright for me

[@miss.sydz91]

Thank god for that I'm not alone 🤣🤣🤣🤣 but yeah I understand what you mean about Banana being a bit too light 😫

[@zmkenya]

I got the medium deep the other day and wow 🤩 the finish.. def worth my $30

[@tamikanicole]

I don’t have any Laura Mercier powders and idk what I’m waiting on honesty. Lol I want to try the medium deep and the honey!

[@miss.sydz91]

Yeahhhh medium deep is my girlll I can't lie 😫🤣

Thanks for review I just bought the medium deep it looks really natural and pretty on you! I don't always like highlighted looks for everydayy ❤

[@miss.sydz91]

Me too! I love the natural look! Thank you for watching ♥️

[@brownstar45]

Great video. I prefer the medium deep powder as it looked more natural. I would go for that. I recently gave my sacha buttercup away as it was way too light and gave me flashback. I don't get that from deep powders. Currently using black opal medium and Fenty nutmeg. Congratulations on 10k. You deserve it with all the content you're putting out ❤

[@miss.sydz91]

Me too!!!! I love medium deep and funny enough I wasn't obsessed with Sacha buttercup either 🤣🤣 Thank you for all the love sis 😍

[@mariecenoble8884]

Thank you so much for this video. It helped me immensely! I am new to Laura Mercier and kept seeing makeup artist use the honey which I thought would maybe be too light for me. I’m happy with your break down and trying each one for us.

[@miss.sydz91]

No worries 🥰🥰 so happy I could help. Thank you so much for watching xx

[@deedeebrown6305]

So happy you definitely deserve the support and much more.

[@miss.sydz91]

Thank you so much sis ❤️

[@AllyC]

Interesting to see the medium deep under the eye!! and I agree honey wasn't as warm as I expected either. Great video xx

[@miss.sydz91]

Lool yeahhh I love medium deep 🤭 Thank you for watching 😊

[@ohshhitsvegan9301]

I just got the LM ( translucent original) today. It was part of the birthday gift. I’m low key scared to use it because I’m shade Namibia for Nars and Hot Fudge Huda... I wanted to try it because I heard so many good things about it and I heard it works well with good with dry skin. I’m scared, but I’ll try it

[@idalarsson4729]

I’ve always thought that the LM powder was to drying for people with normal to dry skin, so I never picked it up. Now I know that it isn’t👍🏾! I was actually hoping earlier today that you would upload a video! I hope that you are doing fine and a massive dubble tap and congrats to the 10K!! You’re more than deserving to the the growth of your channel!!💕

[@miss.sydz91]

Lmaooo I massive double tap 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 love that!!! Thank you so much for the love and the constant support 💗

[@hairCARTEL]

When I saw the new shade, I definitely felt like it was a huge disappointment. It looks identical to the translucent powder

[@miss.sydz91]

Yeahhhh sis I felt the same way 😫😂

[@lovelypuff9]

Thank you for this. I had the colourpop powder and I threw it away because it was too light and grey cast on me. Thanks for this video.

[@miss.sydz91]

😫 oh no! Atleast it's not expensive 🤣 thank you for watching ♥️

[@joannebarton9688]

I don’t tend to use loose setting powders. I use ct for under the eye & Mac msf all over the face to set foundation. I only use setting powder for oil control, then I put a light layer in my tzone areas, over primer, followed by foundation. 😊 the setting powder I have are IMAN’s in earth medium & fit me loose in deep. Both bought this year, during the lock down. Thus personally I don’t use yellow powder. Congrats on reaching 10k 👍🏾👏🏾🥂

[@Jacesmith03]

just bought a mini of the honey. honestly it looks really good/better than the other on you.

Thank you so much sis ❤️😊😊😊😊 Yeah so did I 😂😂 luckily is a nice powder because if it wasn't I would be cussing 😂

Great review. I also thought honey would be more yellow. I’ll stick with the translucent and medium deep😍👍🏾

I like the translucent better since it highlight your under eye 🤍

Thank you so much 💓💗

[@lettea.437]

10K! Congrats!. And u know I was eyeing the honey but think I'd just stick to the translucent that I already have. Not like I really need another powder that I wont ever finish that's 32 bucks a pop!

[@miss.sydz91]

Yeah exactly! If you got translucent and it works for you there's no need for honey lol

[@miss.sydz91]

[@miss.sydz91]

🤣😫😫thank you so much 💗

[@KC-mi6fb]

Sissssss! Your not the only one! I LOVE ALL YOUR CONTENT!!❤️❤️ Plus we are shade twins so your reviews help me A LOT!! I’ve noticed that I don’t like to set my under eye with the medium deep when I use a concealer closer to my skin tone. I think it makes the area a little too dark but if I use a lighter than usual concealer, then it HITS!! I think it balances everything out. I usually wear medium deep when I’m just running errands, but honey for everyday wear (work, date night😌)!! (Side note: your accent gives me LIFE!!)🥰🥰 ok, carry on ladies!! 🤣✌🏾

[@miss.sydz91]

😂😂😫😫😫thank you so much sis. Honestly it feels so good I have a shade twin that agrees with medium deep 😂😂 Thank you for all the love

[@PottyPaige]

Congratulations on 10K!! 🍾🥂 You’re right this powder is amazing, I’ve recently bought honey and can’t wait to use it.... And I’ll deffo need that Nars soft matte review!! 😉💕

Thank you so much! Honestly I can't wait to get that foundation I am so excited 🥰 so I will definitely be reviewing it 🤣💗

I haven’t tried the deep I feel it for the expressor skin you mentioned but the honey is my best catching up on your video 😘

❤️❤️❤️I hear you sis Thank you so much for watching ♥️

[@blackbombshell861]

Omg 😩😩 I need to get medium deep now. I got the honey to review for my channel. I use you as a shade reference because I wear the same shade of foundation and concealer as you and medium deep looked so good. I currently use black opal finishing powder in medium

[@jazbarry13]

Ah! 😫 I'm so torn! I've always wanted to try this powder and I was excited when they released Honey. But it looks a lot less yellow than I thought. I'm the exact same skin tone as KZbinr Kelsee Briana Jai - I don't know which shade will be more universal.

[@wilcherglobal6685]

Kelsey loves the new honey because it is closer to her skin tone than the other two. I would check out her recent video. For those with deeper skin tones medium deep looks like the better choice. Thanks for this video!

[@miss.sydz91]

If you are kelsee skin tone then I guess you can get away with both? Is just your preference how much of a "light effect" you want to achieve. But I do think what ever you get should look great on you 😌😌🥰🥰🥰

[@miss.sydz91]

Yeah I think medium looks stunning on dark/deep skin tones💗thank you for watching ♥️

[@miss.sydz91]

🤷🏾‍♀️ well when I've used it I don't think it's too dark, I feel it gives me a natural brightening look. Fair enough not as bright as the other powders but I think it works for me. I guess is personal preference, things don't always work the same for everyone 😂
