Organic Glam Photo Finish Antioxidant pressed powder

Organic Glam Photo Finish Antioxidant pressed powder

Background info

Organic Glam is a cosmetic line from The Organic Pharmacy which was launched in late 2007. Organic Glam is simple and yet elegant. It is pure mineral makeup that does not contain artificial preservatives and fragrances. The products contain anti oxidants and other beneficial ingredients for the skin. I love the packaging, it looks very similar to a popular chemical brand but obviously you can use Organic Glam without the guilt of damaging your skin. 

Product description

"Infused with Green Tea, lemon Grape and Vitamins A, C and E, this face powder not only protects the skin from free radical damage but also imparts a matt and flawless finish. Mineral colours impart a natural photo finish look".

"This translucent powder is infused with antioxidants to protect the skin and keep it young, rice powder as fine as silk to absorb oil and keep the skin looking fresh and mineral colour to even out the skin tone and set foundation".

To achieve the best application results it is best applied with a foundation brush as part of the last step of your routine. This pressed powder can be applied over your liquid foundation if you want a matte and radiant finish. It is very easy to apply and only takes a few seconds to blend into the skin.

Results and review

The Photo Finish powder contains skin protecting antioxidants as well as a light translucent colour that blends with the skin and provides a completely matte finish. I'm not a fan of powders loose or pressed as I usually find they dry out my skin but this doesn't. Whenever I wear this product people always comment on how smooth and even my skin looks.

I think this product will appeal to oily skin types as it's truly excellent for taking away shine. This also makes my skin feel as smooth as silk.

I love the way this pressed powder contains powerful antioxidants such as Green Tea, Vitamin A, Vitamin C, Vitamin E and also skin communicating peptides. These ingredients assist in collagen production and help to fight free radical damage and pollution, great to use before going out and about to protect your skin further.

Overall this is a wonderful pressed powder that I am deeply impressed with. When I wear this you cannot tell I'm wearing makeup which is perfect for me as a guy. I don't want to look like I have a face of makeup on, just something to hide my imperfections and this does a perfect job! I can totally understand why it is called Photo Finish as it makes my skin look flawless, beautiful and radiant.
