Pearl Powder
Glow - Nourish - Smooth
Sustainably & Ethically Sourced.
It’s been used for thousands of years in Chinese and Ayurvedic medicine. Wu Zetian, a Chinese empress, supposedly used the powder to beautify her skin.
In Chinese medicine, the powder is said to be detoxifying. In Ayurvedic medicine, pearl is said to be an antidote for poison, and it was also used in love potions.
Pearl powder has both internal and external benefits for the skin and body. It’s said to reduce activation of tyrosinase, which is an enzyme that causes the production of melanin. Without this, skin appears more luminous — much like the sheen of a pearl.
