ALTHEA’S BARE ESSENTIALS 3-STEP SKINCARE REPLACES 10-STEP KOREAN SKINCARE

Dear Dreamers

One of the most awaited Korean skincare line this season is none other than Althea’s Bare Essentials skincare line. This phenomenal minimalist-esque skincare line achieves the results of the coveted 10-step Korean skincare routine in 3 easy steps!

Following the success of their first ever product, comes 3 new Althea branded skincare products. If you have read my review of their Althea Petal Velvet Powder, then you know that their Bare Essentials line is something to be excited about.

“AS ONE OF THE BIGGEST DIGITAL BEAUTY BRANDS IN ASIA, ALTHEA AIMS TO CONTINUOUSLY INTRODUCE INTRIGUING NEW PRODUCTS THIS YEAR TO REALLY SHOW WHAT WE CAN BRING TO THE MARKET,” FRANK KANG, C.E.O. OF ALTHEA.

These new beauty hybrid products pack a double punch too; they’re products that nourish the skin while leaving it looking bright, glowing, and beautiful. With clean, minimal, yet effective formulas, these straightforward products are the epitome of simple perfection whilst delivering maximum results with minimum effort. “We also believe that when one has great skin, it decreases the amount of makeup needed to create a perfect complexion, hence the phrase ‘your skin completes makeup’,“ Hyeyoung Park, Head of Brand shares.

THE CONTOUR CLEANSER 150G P300

Packed with soothing Ice Plant and detoxifying Lemon Myrtle extracts, this cleanser is densely filled with micro capsules that burst upon contact with water to gently cleanse, exfoliate, and detoxify skin. The Contour Cleanser helps to promote blood circulation, and reduces bloating and swelling for a defined, enviably slim face shape.

THE PRIMER WATER 200ML P550

Both a hydrating toner and a primer in one, the Primer Water contains patented dewdrop technology (Macro Fluidic Dispersion technology) that gently fills the gaps between pores and allows hydration to penetrate deep within the layers of the skin. Made with Snow Lotus extracts, this skincare heavy hitter has an incredibly smooth and silky texture that enhances the skin’s natural glow, leaving you with the perfect canvas.

THE FIXER CREAM 50G P640

This non-oily, quick-absorbing formula harnesses the power of Trehalose, an ingredient found in the cactus plant that prevents its moisture loss, to provide the skin with 24-hour hydration. This ultra-nourishing wonder cream is also rich in antioxidants derived from Camellia Sinensis (green tea) seed oil, and helps to promote collagen regeneration using Baobab Tree extracts. Upon application, your skin is left looking great and feeling bouncy to the touch.

REVIEW

A rich foam forms while the Contour Cleanser gently exfoliates my skin, filling the air with a mild floral scent. Upon leaving the cleanser on my skin for a few minutes, a cool feeling enveloped my skin, no doubt thanks to its soothing ingredient, Ice Plant.

With a similar cooling effect on the skin, the Primer Water is made with Snow Lotusextract which soothes and cools my skin, further tightening my pores. It left my skin silky smooth, leaving a perfect canvas for makeup.

Rather than using a cotton, I prefer applying the Primer Water using my hands and pat it on my skin.

Gone is the woe of having a sticky skin after using a cream, the Fixer Cream leaves a non-sticky finish on my skin which oily skinned gals like me will absolutely love. Best of all, my face felt hydrated all day long without getting into an oily mess!
