Protection at its Finest: Althea Petal Velvet Sunaway

 I have a confession to make: I don't love the idea of putting on moisturizers or lotion. You see, because the weather is so humid in the Philippines, lotions make me feel sticky and sometimes, icky. But then there's the exception of a soft and velvety finish like the Althea Petal Velvet Sunaway, and I've been a convert ever since.

The Althea Petal Velvet Sunaway is the newest product from your K-beauty and Skincare bestfriend, Althea Korea. It has SPF 50+ and a lightweight sunscreen that protects the skin from UV rays with a petal-like finish. It feels soft on your skin and non-sticky - one I have been looking for in a sunscreen. 

This suncreen also controls excessive sebum on the skin with a micro powder system and ensures the skin is kept hydrated throughout the day. Meaning, it completely moisturizes and prevents oily skin at the same time.

I also discovered that it has a light fluid texture to protect the skin from both UVA and UVB rays. The first time I used it, I had to shake the container to fully utilize the product. The Petal Velvet Sunaway contains Damask rose extracts to moisturize and smoothen the skin. Damask rose has a natural nanomolecular composition that is rich in vitamins to penetrate deep into the skin, soothing sensitivities and strengthening it for a radiant glow. It also has a rose smell making you feel like you are in a flower field. This also comes with Geranium oil, giving your skin a radiant glow and heals acne.

It is also perfect for any skin type, even to those who have sensitive skin. I can say that this is perfect for those who are like me, who wants glowy and oil free skin.

The Althea Petal Velvet Sunaway is available at  Althea Korea for only Php480 in 55ml.
