Koh Gen Do Brightening Moisture Powder

FaceMakeupPowder

Today I want to talk about a powder that, while it won’t brighten your day, will brighten your face.  To begin with, I am not a lover of setting or finishing powders.  For one thing, most of the powders are very matte.  I prefer a dewier finish.  Although, when I saw the Koh Gen Do Brightening Moisture Powder on Beautylish, I thought, hum, brightening moisture in a powder?  For one thing, I have sallow skin.  Another thing, I have very dry skin.  Therefore, I had to try it.

Even more, the compact looks like a cushion foundation.  First, the powder is underneath a lid.  Then, the lid lifts up on one side, to reveal the powder.  I love that t he powder’s designed with cool looking swirls.

One thing you should know, talc is the first ingredient listed on the back list of ingredients.

Although this is a powder, surprisingly, there was no powder kick up from the pan.  Also, the powder itself was easy to pick up with a powder brush.

My Final Thoughts On The Koh Gen Do Moisture Powder…….

First, if you have dry skin, then you will love this powder.  However, if your skin is oily, it may not be the best powder for you.  The reason is, the formula, made with so many moisture-retaining ingredients,  that maintain the moisture of your skin.

Also, you can use the Moisture Powder in several ways.  First of all, it makes an amazing setting powder.  Brush it on over your foundation. One thing it does is smooth the look of your skin’s surface.  The reason it does this it has light refracting powders that will smooth the look of your face.  Even more,  I love how it brightens up my complexion.  Moreover, it creates a radiant complexion.  Above all, it doesn’t settle into your fine lines.

Another way I use the Moisture Powder is as a finishing powder.  In this way, after you are finished applying all of your makeup, you would powder over your makeup, including blush, eyes, etc, to finish your look.  I love that it finishes your face, leaving you with a soft veil of light.  In fact, the finish is radiant and silky.IMG_6362

Finally, you can also use the Moisture Powder to touch up and add a sheer luminosity to your skin.
