Beauty Review: ALTHEA Petal Velvet Powder from Korea

Guess what I have on my hand here? It’s my very first piece of Althea's very own product range!  ❤

Yes, Althea not only offers a wide range of Korean beauty products, but also starts its very own line of products.

Hence, I have this debuting beauty with me now – Althea Petal Velvet Powder!

Althea Petal Velvet Powder (3g) @ RM16.00

The Concept.

It is the powder from nature. Made with pure, natural ingredients, the loose powder has micro-fine particles that minimize the appearance of pores and fine lines. The result? Flawless, petal-like complexion that every girl craves for!

The Natural Ingredient.

Althea Flower Seed Extract Oil

❤ Rich in antioxidants that protect the skin’s barrier from dehydration

❤ Revitalize skin with the natural goodness from Korea 

❤ Invigorate the skin for a beautiful complexion

The Packaging.

Oh I love loose powder in compact cases. Easy to carry around and reapply anytime anywhere I want. All I need is just to dab onto the skin using the thick, fluffy puff applicator inside the case.

A Closer Look.

It is the translucent (white) loose powder that sets makeup and leaves the skin soft and velvety smooth. Suitable for all skin types, the powder also keeps the skin away from excessive sebum, without being overly dry.

How To Use:

Pick up product with a brush or puff provided and gently sweep onto the skin

Texture: ★★★★☆

It is twice as lightweight as the normal loose powder I use!

It finishes the skin with silky, satin-like texture that feels matte and lasts for a long day.

Color: ★★★★★

Although the powder is translucent white, it blends well on all skin tones / types

and doesn't make one appear overly "white"

Result: ★★★☆☆

Thanks to the micro-fine particles, it sets makeup very well. I usually apply BB cushion before finishing off with this powder, to achieve the translucent, pearly finish. It can help to blur the pores/imperfections if the foundation base is applied on point. After long hours, it can still give a radiant, fresh and shine-free look.

Scent: ★★★☆☆

The natural scent is quite gentle and pleasing to my liking.

Verdict:

For only RM16 per pack, I think it is the best bargain among the loose powder that I have ever tried.

Ideal for Korean-style light makeup look.
