Imperial Herbal Skincare Powder is a traditional Vietnamese herbal face powder inspired by the beauty rituals of the Nguyễn dynasty.

Yes.
It is suitable for most skin types.
If you have very dry skin or live in a dry climate, we recommend applying a light moisturizer before using the powder.
You may also use it together with a small amount of your favorite facial cream if needed.
How do I apply it?
There are three common methods:
With your hands (recommended)
Rub the powder gently onto your cheeks, forehead, nose, and chin, then blend with clean fingers. The warmth of your hands helps the powder adhere naturally to the skin.
With a powder puff
Pick up a small amount of powder and gently press it onto the skin for a smoother, fuller finish.
With a brush
Apply lightly using a dry brush for a soft, natural look.
Can I use it every day?
Absolutely.
Many customers use it as part of their daily skincare and makeup routine.
Can I use it over foundation?
Yes.
It works beautifully as a setting powder to help makeup last longer while reducing excess shine.
Do I need sunscreen?
Yes.
During the daytime, always apply sunscreen before using the powder.
My skin feels dry. What should I do?
Make sure your skin is well moisturized before application.
If needed, use the powder together with a touch of your favorite facial cream for a softer finish.
Can I reapply during the day?
Yes.
Simply reapply whenever needed, especially on oily areas such as the forehead, nose, and chin.
How should I store the powder?
Keep it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
Always close the container tightly after use.
How often should I clean my brush or powder puff?
