Welcome back - if, or you're new, welcome!
Gotta talk about this little jewel of a find from Pacifica - it's called the Perfect Lotus Universal Powder, and it's such a lovely little portable powder for touch-ups! It's also vegan and cruelty-free, which is always great (and good for those of you with sensitive skin looking to avoid harsh ingredients). It contains a host of lovely ingredients I'll get into in a moment, but first (as always) here's the website's spiel! "An incredibly modern take on the mineral powder. This pressed formula truly multi-tasks. Hydrating, blendable and buildable, it delivers hours of brightening coverage with a weightless texture. Use as a sheer shine-free finish or light as a feather fuller coverage perfecting foundation. Details: To perfect your look, apply over makeup and blend in circular motion until desired finish is achieved. May also be used alone by applying in layers until desired sheer to medium coverage is achieved".
Ooh!
Anywho, the key ingredients include lotus powder extract which is a hydrating powder that resists sitting in creases, Coconut water (a hydrating ingredient that helps the formula stay creamy) and Vitamin E (which is hydrating and anti-oxidant rich). So not only is this going to set makeup, keep it in place, help to mattify the skin and give a little bit of extra coverage, it's also good for the skin and will keep you hydrated, too - bonus! This will definitely look too ashy on darker skin tones; it's ok on my fairer-than-fair skin, though I can't build a heavy coverage of this as it's a smidge too dark. It would be fab if they brought this out in more shades, as it's such a lovely little product! Meli X
