The pressed powder was originally designed to help set, touch up and control oil. Pressed powder is generally used in the final step of makeup because it contains substances that inhibit and absorb oil, which can relieve the oil on the surface of the skin.

The powder is generally used after the bb cream, and the effect on the face will be more natural. Be sure to use a cotton pad when using it. Some people are lazy and apply powder directly on the face with their hands. This method is completely wrong and unhygienic, because if the hands are not clean, the bacteria on the hands will be carried to the face, which can easily cause acne.
If the powder is used daily, it is best to wash it once a week. After a week, bacteria will gradually build up on the puff. If you do not wash for a long time, bacteria and mites will increase, which is not good for skin health. The cleaned puff is best to dry in the shade. Exposure to the sun will harden the puff and affect its use.
