Palladio Natural Rice Oil-Absorbing Rice Powder

Hello ladies!

I want to share with you girls my new favorite- Palladio Natural Rice Oil-Absorbing Rice Powder. And I know what you're thinking: what the hell is that? Yeah, when my sister's friend told me about this product, I was like, 'What?' and so I totally understand how you feel.

Anyway beautiful people, this is a tinted powder. I like it so much because the name says what it is: an oil absorbing powder. For a teen who has trouble controlling the oil on her face, believe me that it does lessen oil production and a bonus, it does not make your forehead or oil too shiny when oil started to form.

Palladio Natural Rice Oil-Absorbing Rice Powder Php 325

This is how it looks like. It's not like most product that comes in a compact and a mirror.

It comes with a powder puff but no mirror.

It also comes with a puff (is it called a puff?) and what I like about the puff is that it doesn't absorb much product.


It is in a box shape and it doesn't have a mirror. It looks old but whatever. Doesn't matter to me.



It is an loose powder form but it doesn't look chalky when applied.

Palladio Rice Powder in Natural

Non-comedogenic.

What I like about this is that it doesn't cause any breakouts which for me is so important. Although it contains  parabens, talc and fragrance I still like this product.


Pros:


  • Non-comedogenic
  • Cheap at Php 325 (17 grams)
  • Not Chalky
  • Absorbs oil
  • Lessen oil production
  • Not chalky when applied
  • Available in four shades (Fair, Natural, Warm beige and Nude)

Cons:

  • Doesn't give much coverage
  • You can't tightly close the container, if you're not too careful, you might spill the contents all over your makeup bag
  • I think it's only available at Beauty Bar
  • YOU SHOULD ALWAYS PUT THIS UPRIGHT!

All in all, Palladio Rice Powder is now my new favorite setting powder. And since it is tinted, you can wear it alone if you don't feel like wearing so much makeup on. This is really a good buy because it doesn't only last a long time but it totally does what is says it does. It makes your skin look matte without looking dry and when oil does starting forming, your skin will not look too greasy. I love this product and I recommend this to girl with oil control problems.

Facial Cleansers

I know that teens my age are also experiencing breakouts like I do. Breakouts have a tendency to lower one's self confidence. To prevent breakout, we must use facial cleansers that are appropriate for our skin type. Mine is really oily and I like to share what products I used that helped lessen my breakouts.

Let's start!

Neutrogena Deep Clean Foaming Cleanser.

1. Neutrogena Deep Clean Facial Cleanser. 
This is available in mostly all supermarkets (I bought mine in Landmark). It's an oil free cleanser so it helps skin to prevent excessive oil production but it still does moisturize the skin. This products works for me though I still experience breakouts. I use this twice a day, in the morning and before I go to sleep.

DON'T use it twice in one wash because it tends to peel the skin when you do. I tried washing my face with this twice in the morning thinking oil control will last longer but I was so wrong! I had to put makeup that day and my skin was peeling and it wasn't pretty. So yeah, don't overwash your face with this!

Price: Php 192.50
How to use: Squeeze a small amount (pea size) onto your wet palm and lather it up before rubbing on your face.  *Directly putting on your face may be too harsh so it's best to follow the direction :)

2. Dove Beauty Cream Bar. 
This is what I resolved to during my high school years. I have been using this ever since my acne breakouts but then stopped (because I used Neutrogena). It's actually a good product since it doesn't dry the skin. Although it doesn't help in oil control, it didn't break me out as much a Pond's did.

This is good for those who have sensitive and dry skin. I don't recommend this for people who like to stay matte for long hours because it doesn't mattify the skin.

Price: Php 50.00 (Estimated)
How to use: It's up to you, just don't apply the bar directly to your skin.

3. Tea Tree Oil Soap.
Tea tree oil soap works well for me. It did help prevent breakouts and treat those huge zits although it doesn't help so much for keeping the oil on my face from showing. I bought mine from my dermatologist but then, I stopped going to the dermatologist so I stopped buying this too.

Price: Php 300 *Mine's from a dermatologist but I'm sure there are cheaper tea tree oil soaps out there.
How to use: Scrub your palm with the soap and lather it up. (This is how the doctor told me)


So yeah, these are the products that works and worked for me. They didn't really clear my skin but I noticed that I experience less breakouts from these cleansers. Anyway, if you happen to use any products that work for oily skin, please leave me a comment.
