When I first knew about Althea Korea, it was an one-stop online store supplying various Korean beauty products like cosmetics and skincare products. After two years of establishment, Althea has finally come out with their own product-line called the Bare Essentials. I guess from the name itself you can tell it is a skincare collection. Hehe yes it is!
The Bare Essentials collection comes in three different products, which are the cleanser, primer water and fixer cream. If you have been putting on make-up, you would know how important it is to have these three essentials as your base. The Bare Essentials contains natural ingredients that hydrate and nourish your skin, keeping it healthy and dewy all time.
STEP 1: Contour Cleanser
Cleansing your skin is always the first step in all skincare routine. The Bare Essentials Contour Cleanser contains micro capsules that helps to exfoliate your skin. The micro capsules scrub away dead skin, remove any impurities and detoxify you skin. Another amazing thing about it, the cleanser is actually designed to reduce swelling. AWESOME! It's gonna give you a slimmer and more defined face shape.
Key Ingredients:
Ice plant // for better hydration and reduce redness.
Lemon verbena leaf // with Vitamin C and antioxidants.
STEP 2: Primer Water
You
Never apply face make-up without having primer as your base, because it helps to create a smooth long lasting application for your foundation/BB cream. I always ensure to have my primer and skincare applied before my face make-up, as I want my skin to be protected and avoid any direct contacts with cosmetics.
The Bare Essentials Primer Water comes in clear dewdrops that soften and hydrate your skins. It evens out your skin and prepares it fo the next. I love how it works as a 2-in-1 toner and primer, very practical for lazy people (like me)!
Key Ingredients:
Snow lotus // for smooth, bright and even skin.
Patented dewdrops technology // strengthens your skin and provides effective moisture.
STEP 3: Fixer Cream
Finally, the last step is to keep your skin hydrated 24 hours with the Bare Essentials Fixer Cream. This product penetrates into your skin layer by layer and retains up to a day. The product feels pretty smooth and less sticky once its fully absorbed into your skin. Complete your skincare routine with the Bare Essentials Fixer Cream, keep your skin fresh and vitalized all day long.
Key Ingredients:
Trehalose // retains moisture.
Green tea // hydrates and soothes you skin with antioxidants
Baobab tree extract // non-greasy and helps to produce collagen
Overall, I really love the packaging of this collection!
Very simple and minimal.
I can't wait to try more Althea production.
Keep your skin hydrated, girls!
