I use the Poudre Universelle Libre #40. I love this powder above the Laura Mercier and MUFE HD because it does some of the things you guys said the Nars loose powder does for you. It makes my skin look soft and even. It doesn't look like I'm glowing, but I don't look matte. I guess you can say it gives a satin finish to my skin. The Nars tinted mosturizer, which I love, gives me a glow and when I put the Chanel loose powder over it, it tones it down just a bit. The Chanel Perfection Lumiere, which can be a little drying for me, looks beautiful and natural with the loose powder on top. That foundation works better with that Chanel powder than any other powder I've used it with. I think it has something to do with the slight pigmentation of the powder. It's not white, but it's not so dark that anyone my complexion (NC45) or darker couldn't use it as a setting powder. I took a chance on the powder a few weeks ago after some youtube raves and I'm so glad I did. I love Chanel, I love that huge, expensive looking jar. I can't even imagine running out. So, I think I'll just stop looking into loose powders from now on. It's just HG for me. I have normal/dry skin, by the way.
