Althea Petal Velvet Powder

Its been years of waiting and I can't believe that my favorite K-beauty source finally launched its very own line! They're starting it strong by adding a silky finish to the touch. 

I for one have not yet found a perfect sebum control powder because I've always entrusted oil-fighting properties to my foundation until this product proved me that its essential too! 

Are you ready to meet your new best friend?

Althea Petal Velvet Powder

Selling Price: 210 pesos (3g)

Infused with oil from Althea seeds, this powder works to keep sebum production at bay without drying out the skin for a radiant, fresh look, all while giving out a gentle scent. Keep your makeup looking great all day or dust some on to stay shine-free.

My Thoughts:

• It has a very lovely fruity and flowery smell which are the major components of this organic and cruelty free product. I love that its like smelling a pot pourri in a bag whenever I apply it on my skin. (You know me, I love a good smelling product.~)
• The powder is made of micro-fine particles that help minimize the appearance of pores and fine lines leaving my skin with a smooth a velvet-y finish.  
• It's a translucent powder making it easy for me to set my make up. I often use this for baking the bags under my eyes which makes eyes look livelier too! 
• The sebum control formula helps me control unnecessary oil on my skin as well as creates a satin finish without dehydrating the skin.
• Its lightweight formula works perfectly with the thick and fluffy puff that comes with it. 
• It also has a polyphenols ingredient that help the skin from the adverse effects caused by the sun that's why its so perfect for us living in a tropical country.
• Inspired by its name, Althea gives a smooth velvet finish in combination with its flowery fragrant smell unlike any other.

Will I buy it again?

I for sure will! Its make up setting and lasts long on the skin, not to mention that its composed of cruelty free ingredients that I'm such an advocate of. You get all that is good for 210 pesos! Its such a steal. <3
