  • Bloom – Leads with the fresh taste of herbs and peppermint and provides tasty hints of cranberry and licorice root, created to strengthen immune defenses and soothe throats during the cold and allergy season.

Crushed Pearl Translucent Setting Powder

This setting powder layers beautifully over makeup and will help to keep your foundation in place. It gives your skin a matte and silky finish, reduces shine, and conceals the look of pores. What makes this light and soft setting powder extra special is that it is actually very beneficial for your skin. Unlike other conventional setting powders, which primarily consist of chemical ingredients like talc, pearl powder contains amino acids. Amino acids stimulate skin cells to produce collagen, promote cellular repair and hydration, and protect skin from pollution and outside elements. These proteins give your skin a glowing appearance. In traditional Indian and Chinese medicine (or Ayurveda), pearl powder is held in high regard for its adaptogenic, calming, and anti-aging benefits. Size: 1oz (30ml)
