Pro Tips

Prep face, eyes and lips

An oil absorbing base for Concealer/Foundation for those who need extra longevity or prefer an ultra matte foundation. To prime the eyes, apply Prep/Finish powder across the eye lids prior to eye makeup application. For extra long wear lips and a sharp lip line, dust over the lips prior to applying Cheek/Lip tint with Lip Brush.

Finish

Create an invisible second skin and set makeup by powdering all over the face.

Application

Swiping powder onto the face is likely to disrupt foundation application. Instead, load Aleph Powder Brush with sufficient powder and press and roll the powder onto the face. Repeat, always ensuring there is enough powder on the brush to deposit onto the face or there will be a risk of depositing makeup onto the surface of the powder.

Prep/Finish Powder

I find this powder so simple to use and I enjoy using it - I love that I can use it first and then at the end of my routine.

Prep/Finish Powder

I bought this product because it claimed to help retain the Lip/Eye Pencil product on the skin. Unfortunately I had no luck either with it or without it.

I do believe it leaves some pigment in the area so it's a film, not an all day product.

I am not sure if the Powder leaves a sheen but it does appear to help with the finish over my foundation which is not Aleph but I can't afford that while I still have foundation that does a good job. I really appreciate the videos- they are a big help as long as they do what we are told they do.

I just recently purchased this powder to replace my Maybelline one and so happy I did. It is a significantly higher price tag than a drug store bought powder but worth it. One thing I did notice is that it helps with longevity and keeps my blush in place for longer. Really beautiful finish.
