powder is used to set the foundation and concealer for a lasting fresh look. foundation and concealer are both moist and therefore have no holding power without a bit of powder to set them in place. not only does the powder set the make-up, it also reduces excess shine on the skin. when light is attracted to shining skin and when light shines on an area it illuminates any flaws like large pores, uneven skin, wrinkles and creases.
while everyone wants to glow, nobody wants to look greasy, and powder is a great mattifier. featuring today is Althea's very first product range - Althea Petal Velvet Powder..:)
Althea Petal Velvet Powder is the powder from nature. it is made from Althaea flower (or commonly knows as marshmallow) - a pretty plant that gives big benefits. very subtle and velvety in texture, the plant exhibited strong antioxidant which helps to rejuvenate the deterioration of the skin.
the main ingredients of Althea Petal Velvet Powder include:
♥Althaea seed extract
protect skin barrier from dehydration and invigorate skin got a beautiful complexion
♥green tea
sebum control which prevents hyper-pigmentation
♥mandarin orange

i find most of us barely apply powder as the "final touch" of our makeup, as we fear it will show up the so called "flaws". perhaps this fear has something to do with the old school way of powder.
Althea Petal Velvet Powder is made with micro-fine particles making it easy to dust off excess powder with a large brush, leaving no extra powder on the skin to cake into fine lines; eventually minimizing the appearance of pores and fine lines to reveal a flawless, petal-like complexion.
Althea Petal Velvet Powder's translucent powder matches all skin tones when blended well. its translucent and perfecting qualities creates a satin finish that mattifies without dehydrating the skin. best of all, it is great for killing shine and does not add a ton of extra product to your skin as you touch up throughout the day.
