REVIEW: Althea Petal Velvet Sunaway Sunscreen SPF50+ PA++++
Hi guys! Today we’ll be reviewing Althea Petal Velvet Sunaway Sunscreen SPF50+ PA++++. I COULD NEVER GET ENOUGH OF SUNSCREENS.

The best way to protect our skin is through using effective sunscreens. But with the numerous brands available in the market today, not everything is good and not everything works. Before we discuss the sunscreen let’s recap on the basics. If you’re new to sun protection, the SPF number and all the PA pluses…

Buy or Bye? Althea Korea Bare Essentials Review
Koreans are known for their flawless skin that glows even without makeup. It’s not just good genes that gave them that. It’s having a good skincare routine.

I love “window shopping” in Althea Korea to scout for new KBeauty products to try. In a recent haul, I was searching for a basic finishing powder that’s pressed, not loose. Most translucent powders I own are loose and is difficult to bring around. I read good reviews online so I decided to purchase it and see for myself. While I do not have oily skin, I struggle with acidity and oxidation. Makeup turns orange on me and looks muddy after a few hours of wear. I’m not fond of using primers because I haven’t found “the one” yet and I like something multipurpose. One that sets makeup, and easy to carry for retouching.…
