Product Review: Althea Petal Velvet Sunaway SPF 50++++ and Althea Petal Velvet Powder in 3 shades
10/30/2018
Following the successful launch of Althea's own range of exclusive products from their popular petal velvet powder, to their minimally simplified bare essentials skincare product range such as contour cleanser, primal water and fixer cream then recently their 2 highly raved real fresh skin detoxer in green tea and rose I have been very pleased with their results. I swear by their in house brand and sincerely love every item which they had launched so far.
Not only does Korean beauty products make you look and feel good, they now come at a very affordable price, if you purchase from Althea's site. I already have in mind a long wish list from the site awaiting my next purchase.
Living in an Asian country like Singapore where you get the sun almost all year round, one like me simply cannot live without the sunblock. What's the happier news? Althea recently launched their own! Say yes to another innovative minimalism product. Yes, yes, yes!
The Althea Petal Velvet Sunaway comes with SPF 50++++. It is supposed to keep the sun away from you, sounds cheesy but that's what its meant to do, hence its name.
Feel free to spam the product on your face, neck, skin and even body if you wish, as it suits even the most sensitive skin like mine. Tried, tested and proven to work so you don't have to go through the pain of testing it for yourself. Having said that, please, still do a patch test before applying this directly on your face darling.
Bid good bye to that nasty scent emitting from typical sunblock or that ugly white cast left behind, as the product smells only of the lovely damask rose, something which you'll find very common in many of their own in-house brand products.
Besides, it is made from natural ingredients, with a soft, velvet texture, light weighing and most importantly, is cruelty free. You'll know how important the last point is, when you are an animal lover and deal with them on a daily basis yourself.
Do give the product a good shake before dispensing and application.

Other than the common properties which you get from your typical sunblock, what I like most is also its micro powder system which effectively controls my skin's excess sebum. They can also be applied over the make-up when I need to touch up my sunscreen.
You should know that one application of sunscreen does not last the whole day right? Just like your lipstick or face make-up, your sunscreen does requires touch up after 2-3 hours.
Grab yours at $11.70/55ml instead of $13 SGD (10% Off), during their launch promotion.

Next up are the Althea Petal Velvet powders which now comes in 3 shades for you to choose from! The collection has 2 new addition namely the warm beige and lavender. You can use them to set your make-up and keep your face looking radiant and fresh all day without drying them out.
Choose from #0 Translucent, #23 Warm Beige or my favourite of these 3 #Pink Lavender which is their 3rd Anniversary limited edition. Use these powders to keep your skin's sebum at bay.
$6 SGD/ 3g for the translucent and beidge, $6.50 SGD/3g for the limited edition lavender. The lavender extract helps soothe irritation and has aromatherapy properties to calm your senses. It also helps to brighten up any dull looking skin.

Look at how micro and pigmented these powders are! Featuring the beige coloured powder.
Can't decide which product you like better? Why not purchase the Althea Petal Velvet Sunaway and another 1 variant of the Althea Petal Velvet Powder at 20% off their usual price ($15.20 instead of $19 SGD) if you purchase them during the promotional period.
I'll get the set with the limited edition lavender if I were you to shave another $0.50 off my bill!
