Peter Thomas Roth Camu Camu Vitamin C Brightening Cleansing Powder is VERY “Choose Your Own Adventure”

I LOVED Peter Thomas Roth Camu Camu Power C x 30™ Vitamin C Brightening Sleeping Mask for getting my skin brighter and smoother over time, so naturally when Peter Thomas Roth Camu Camu Power C x 30™ Vitamin C Brightening Cleansing Powder hit the market, I was all like “OMG I HAVE TO TRY THAT.” Powders seem to be the next big trend in new skincare products and as I’m ever the skincare junkie, I had to jump on it. The brand’s PR sent over a sample for review consideration.

Official info:

What it is:
A gentle, water-activated daily cleansing powder that transforms into a rich, creamy facial cleanser to effectively clear away dirt, oil, and impurities.

What it is formulated to do:
This calming, water-activated daily cleansing powder is for anyone seeking fresher, softer, more radiant, and healthier-looking skin. Only available in liquid or powder form, the Amazonian camu camu berry provides 30 times more vitamin C per ounce than an average orange. This highly concentrated vitamin C helps brighten, smooth, firm, and improve the appearance of uneven skintone, fine lines, and wrinkles. Small round granules of the intelligent gem, Baltic amber, work to exfoliate, energize, and polish the skin, opening up clogged pores. Bamboo and rice power provide gentle cleansing, exfoliating, and delicate brightening.

What it is formulated WITHOUT:
– Parabens
– Sulfates
– Phthalates

What else you need to know:
Use less water to create a thick, deep-cleaning exfoliating paste and more water to create a mild lathering cleanser.

For daily cleansing:

As a paste for exfoliating:

I LOVE that this cleansing powder is pretty much a choose your own adventure in skincare. Use less water for times when you want to gently exfoliate (about twice a week). Use more water for daily lathered cleansing. It’s practically genius because it’s like two different products in one and they’re both fighting the good fight for brighter skin.

Immediately after use I notice my skin is of course cleaner but also visibly glowing. And of course I love that I can control what I want it to do for my skin with how much water I add to it.

As with any skincare product, individual results will vary but I personally loved this one. You can grab a sample to try before you buy at Sephora.

Price and where to buy: $52 at Sephora
