Dusting Powder

Dusting powders are finely ground mixtures that lightly cover the skin with silky and gently falling scent curtains. These sensory compositions have roots far beyond mere products, dating back thousands of years as decorative rituals and sensory ornaments around the world.  

While ancient Egyptian nobles and Chinese geishas enjoyed ornate powder cases to smell their pulse points,  women of the Victorian era were given ornate powder cases to gently caress their cleavage and long limbs. Fast forward to the present, as this ancient beauty ritual continues to deliver effortless luxury.

Where should dusting powders be applied?  

Softly scented powders on pulse points such as the wrists, neck, and neckline create an alluring scent veil. Apply the unscented versions to the face to finish the makeup or lightly cover the body. 

What is the difference between dusting and setting powders? 

Setting powders mattify and strengthen makeup with oil-absorbing rice or clay minerals. Dusting powders provide a final translucent layer of texture, shine, and optional fragrance. 

Should perfume be used before or after body powder?  

Apply a fragrant body powder before the perfume so the oils don't break down the powder as quickly. The powder coating also helps the scent last longer on the skin.
