Here at mbg, we believe that beauty is uniquely yours. In our video series Bare Your Beauty, we break down various techniques, rituals, and how-to's designed to help you feel good in your own skin, whether your goal is to de-stress, update your skin care regimen, or try a new look. 

On mbg, we've covered the evolution of the powder cleanser as it's gone from Korean-beauty mainstay to a more popular product on a global scale. Part of the appeal of a powder cleanser is its portability—you can take it on a plane or shove it in your purse without fear of spillage. Using powder allows you to control the texture of your cleanser too—more water means a lighter scrub; less of it makes things a little more intense. There are also environmental benefits to choosing products that come in such concentrated forms—when companies aren't shipping water, they're saving on carbon emissions.

While powder cleanser is relatively easy to use, there are some best practices you should keep in mind during application. This quick how-to breaks it all down for you. And if you're looking for a natural powder cleanser to start your journey with, we've got you covered there too.
