Laura Mercier Moisture Supreme Foundation Review

A couple of weeks ago 1 of the malls in my city opened up a Sephora. We already had a Sephora, but it was one of the ones that's inside of a JCPenny. It had a large enough selection. It has MUFE, NARS, Urban Decay, Hello Kitty, Stila, Benefit, Tarte, Philosphy, etc. However, when it came to the MUFE & NARS sections it was very limited. 
Finally, after a year we got an actual Sephora. Might I add, that I am really happy with the extensive nail polish selection, as if I need anymore, lol.

I went to the new Sephora on opening night and was happy to see the Laura Mercier section. I needed new foundation and had planned to buy my usual MUFE HD foundation in 160, but decided to give Laura Mercier a try.
I picked out Sunny Beige, did a swatch on my face and really liked how it looked. I was sold, I made my purchase and was excited to try it out. 






The following day I applied my makeup as usual, this time using my new Laura Mercier Foundation. The coverage was amazing! I had some blemishes that week that this foundation completely covered up. My only problem with it though was that my skin felt weighed down. I think the foundation was too heavy for my skin. After about 5 minutes of having it on, my skin felt tight & sticky. I removed the foundation immediately, mind you, I didn't put a lot on either, I used about 2 pumps. 
Even after using a light setting powder by MUFE my skin still felt tight & sticky. I went right back to my MUFE HD Foundation and returned the Laura Mercier Foundation and picked up another MUFE HD this time in 155.

I am not sure how the Laura Mercier Moisture Supreme Foundation feels on other women, but I have heard that it feels silky & very smooth. That is what made me want to try it in the first place. I loved the coverage I got from it as well, the coverage was amazing & yes, it did make my skin look smooth, but didn't feel that way at all.

I will probably try other products by Laura Mercier in the future, but for now, I am sticking to my all time favorite, MUFE.
