my jurlique lavender silk finishing powder

July 29th, 2008

On my last trip to Singapore, I bought my first silk finishing powder from Jurlique. My first experience with Jurlique was dated 2000 when I bought the lavender hydrating mist. I love the cooling and calming sensation of the lavender hydrating mist on a hot day, especially in our tropical climates. I had stopped using if for years due to the heavy bottle packaging which makes it heavy on my luggage when I travel.

During my stop at the Jurlique counter in Tangs Store in Singapore, I was delighted that Jurlique had changed the branding and packaging of all their products. Since I haven’t been a Jurlique user for a while, it was a refreshing sight for me. I couldn’t stopped myself from checking out the simple and pleasant bottles of skincare, hair care and body care products on the shelves.

After a chat with the Jurlique beauty consultant, I decided that I wouldn’t need any skincare products to replace my La Mer ones at the moment. I’m not that sort who like to change skin care products unless they are causing havoc to my skin!! In the end, I picked up the Jurlique Lavender Silk Finishing Powder, the intensive recovery mask and the eye makeup remover.

The Jurlique Lavender Silk Finishing Powder is a silky transluscent facial powder that helps to refine the complexion and helps cut down unwanted shine. I would dust some on my face after applying my mineral foundation to provide a matte and smooth finish. The lavender scent was indeed calming and the powder helped to reduce oily shine on my t-zone area in the mid day. On the first few usages, I found it hard to get the powder out of the jar. As such, I needed to dab a few times to get an even coverage. The holes in the canister were kinda tiny which might be good if you are traveling. That would prevent too much excess powder from filling the canister. On days where I don’t feel like buffing mineral foundation on my face, the silk finishing powder may be good to brighten up my face complexion, except that it won’t cover any flaws or imperfections. As a finishing powder, the Jurlique Lavender Silk Finishing Powder is a good item to have if you have yet to own a loose powder or mineral finishing powder. It is made of purely botanicals and the lavender flowers are harvested from certified organic farms. Jurlique uses a custom blend of biodynamically and organically grown herbs and flowers for their range of products. (get it at $37 from StrawberryNET.com.)
