[Althea Exclusives] Althea makeup Box
Althea Korea has recently launched some products under their Althea Exclusive Series. Any beauty product addicts, such as myself, will definitely find them intriguing! I've previously tried their skincare line, but now I shall try their makeup series!
Last month, Althea sent over a generous parcel, their first ever Althea Exclusives Makeup Box Collection!
It came in a Limited Edition Althea box, which had a traditional Hanbok Box Design. I was overjoyed when I opened up my parcel and was greeted by
concealers, eye gitters, lip tints, skin relief spot gel and a super pretty eye
palette.
For the purpose of this review, I tested the following beauty
items from Althea Exclusives’ makeup collection
Without any further ado, let’s kick-off with the gorgeous Sunrise
& Moonrise eyes palette. This is Althea's second collaboration
with a celebrity, after their December launch, TITI X ALTHEA - Stay Fresh Body Sparkling Mist.
The Sunrise & Moonrise Eye Palette is a collaboration between Althea Korea and Bunga Citra Lestari, also known as BCL, who is an Indonesian singer and actress. Inspired by her iconic style and glamor look, they released the 'Sunrise & Moonrise eyes palette (SGD46).
I used #3-Metallic Rose
Gold with pink undertones and mixed it with #8-Cool Purple hue which end result gave me a subtle shimmer on my
double eye-lids. I then applied the #4-Metallic
Gold hue on the upper lid to give an extra booster of shimmer and radiance
to my entire eye makeup.
I don’t usually apply glitters on my eyes, but it doesn’t mean I am new
to this. The reason I don't use glitters that often is because I've encountered some bad experiences. However, I shall make an exception this time as Althea's Spotlight Eye Glitter (SGD8) looks very pretty! Thankfully I did, as it allowed me to have a new view of eye glitter! If you love glitters, then you'll love you’ll love Althea’s Spotlight Eye Glitter.
It comes in a precise Brush
for eyeliner with 2 shades available - Gold
Light and Pink Light. As claimed
by Althea Korea’s website, it can be used as an eyeshadow too, all thanks to the hydrating formula that glides like butter over the lids and allows for easy blending.
I applied a dab of 'Pink Light' on my lower eyelid to add a subtle touch of shimmer. Do note that the eye glitter dries very quickly to a long-lasting, budge-proof finish, so if you need to, blend it quickly!
Althea's Flawless Creamy Concealer was just that. Flawless! It contains high pigmentation and is an easy to blend concealer that moisturises and effectively helps in concealing imperfections at the same time. It contains Aquaxyl, which creates a moisture
barrier on the skin and prevents dehydration. It comes in #01-Vanilla, #02-Ginger, #03-Honey and #04-Mocha.
Althea Watercolor Cream Tints (SGD7) come in the 4
shades #01-Plum Cream, #02-Strawberry Cream, #03-Peach Cream and #04-Marron Cream. I always go for red and coral shades for lips, but this time, the Marron Cream caught my attention! What I love about these
Watercolor Cream Tints is that it is
highly pigmented, and they contain hyaluronic acid to prevent chapped lips from
flaking.
I finished off my look with my favorite lip tint (#04-Marron Cream). I applied a thin layer of the product on my bottom lip before spreading it out evenly using a lip brush. It
helped to control the amount and intensity of the product used on my lip. I
love it very much as the shade was beautiful and enhanced my complexion. It is
a long wearing and hydrating lip tint. I love the glossy sheen, and it is super convenient and handy to carry it along it with you wherever you go for an easy touch up! In my own opinion, it is definitely worth every single penny!
These are the products I used to create my look!
Apart from the makeup collection, Althea Korea also sent a Skin Relief Spot Film Gel (SGD6) for us to apply on zits before any makeup application! If you have acne prone skin, and you are afraid to aggravate your acne during makeup application, then the Skin Relief Spot Film Gel is the answer to your woes! It creates a thin layer of film to heal and soothe acne at the same time.
The transparent
pimple gel contains three essential ingredients:
1) Tea Tree Oil - Contains
antibacterial properties to treat spots
2) Centella Asiatica Extract - Soothes
redness and strengths the skin
3) Pine Leaf Extract - Rich in antioxidants to
repair and calm down irritations.
I am totally into the products by Althea Exclusives very much, and I do have a soft spot for them. They are definitely worth a mention.
