Spirulina Zinc Treatment Loose Powder

All pictures were taken during the day, natural light no filters. It was taken in a car during a hot and humid day. Visible shine and oily from the heat on my face. After applying the product, the shine and oily parts on my face was no longer there. I had an amazing time trying the product out. I did receive this product for free from their giveaway. I would love a better way of applying the product. The puff is nice but I felt like I had to go back and get more product. I often have to shake the powder upside down and tap on it to get the product on the puff. Once its on the skin, there is no irritation and it blends in well once it sets in. I would definitely purchase this once I finish the one I have!

When I heard Equalrxn was coming out with a powder, I was really excited and intrigued about how it would be, because I know whatever product they create, it is always done with the best formulation in mind.

The state of my skin right now is currently normal to dry, although sometimes oily due to this brutal summer California heat. I am someone who has only really used translucent powder. The SPIRULINA ZINC TREATMENT LOOSE POWDER has a slight blue green color to it. Besides being really pretty to look at, it actually does serve a function to brighten and neutralize redness. I found that it did a really good job mattifyiing without looking chalky. It gave me a nice satin finish, and I am happy to report that it didn't turn my skin color green.

In my photos you will see that in the before, it is my skin with full on with skincare, sunscreen, makeup after a hot day. You can see that I am very shiny/oily. In the after photo, you can see that it did a nice job bringing down the shine, while still letting my highlighter and base makeup show through. You can see it even neutralized some of the blush I had on, so it may come in handy if you get heavy handed with blush or deal with light redness. It feels really nice and silky. Needless to say, this is a powder that I really enjoy and will continue to use!

Disclaimer: This is NOT a bad product! It's just not universal and I want to share my experience in case anyone has similar skin to mine!

I've tried applying this with the puff, with a fluffy brush, with an extremely light hand, and have concluded that sadly it's not for me solely due to the pale green color. I think if you don't already have green tones in your skin, you may have better results, but on me, it makes me look very ashy no matter how sparingly I use it. I think the green multiplies the sickly tones in my skin rather than balancing it and I wish I knew that before purchasing! I figured this would be akin to a translucent powder and be sheer enough that it would just work against redness.

*I also want to note that my skin is light to medium depending on the season (but generally I'm pretty pale) and I can't see this working for deeper skin tones.

That said, I find a powder like this ideal for very oily skin that wants to be matte. It's a really silky and finely milled powder and a fine choice if the color works for you! I wish it worked for me!

i won this powder in their instagram giveaway and i’m so stoked i did. i’ve had it now for a few months and it’s genuinely my favorite powder ever. i’ve tried other powders but never stuck with them bcuz it always felt like they were clogging my skin. with this one i feel good using it on my oily acne prone skin, not being afraid it’s gonna cause more acne. it keeps my skin matte for at least 8 hours and the green color counteracts any red spots i may have. i have light medium/medium skin and it works fine for me but i’m not sure if it would work for someone with deep skin bcuz of the light green shade.
overall i love it and you should definitely try it.

My first time trying this Zinc treatment and I’m hooked. The green reduces redness I was shine free all day

I bought this for my oily t-zone just to set my makeup a little since I wear a mask all day at work. This formula is so pretty! I'm usually a pressed powder gal, but this stuff is silky and has a subtle green tint I really enjoy since I have a lot of redness. It wears well throughout the day, even under my eyes.

Go ahead and get this. Especially if you have combo or oily skin. This treatment powder absolutely blew me away. It’s finely milled and applies beautifully without leaving me ashy even though it’s not tinted. I love that I can wear it to set my radiant sunscreens without fear of any pigmented transfer and I can also use it to set my makeup. It lasts literally all day with minimal breakdown. I cooked dinner with this on and my makeup still looked gorgeous after. I won this powder in a social media giveaway and I am so happy I got to try it.

This is an amazing powder for dry skin. I love how it sets without over-mattifying. The green tint gives a hint of color correction for those of us with a bunch of redness. Plus there's no annoying/irritating fragrance added. There are several beneficial ingredients included for acne-prone skin. Just a great addition to any skincare or makeup routine.

this powder is amazing! It sets my makeup beautifully and gives my skin a flawless, matte finish without looking cakey

This powder is incredibly versatile! I use it to set my makeup or just on its own for a fresh look. It gives a subtle, natural finish and has definitely helped with my skin’s overall clarity

I usually don’t wear makeup every day, but my oily skin needs some help. This powder is a game-changer—it controls oil without making my skin feel dry. It’s so lightweight that it feels like I’m wearing nothing at all, but the matte finish is impressive!

I love how this brand takes product development into a next level! This is truly a genius product that keeps my skin shine free with amazing ingredients. I have really greasy skin, its effect last for about 5-6 hours, so need to reapply in the afternoon, but it's easy to reapply since they included a puff with it.

It's rare to find a powder with this much good ingredients in. But the packaging is a bit small so sometimes it's hard to get the product out, it's eaiser to dump it into the cap

The ingredients in this powder is AMAZING, there are researches backing on 1% zinc pca and 2% carnitine for sebum production, also the spirulina is a plus for day time antioxidant.

I noticed less pimple popping up after using it for a while

Good setting powder, but didn't like the puff so much, used a brush to apply and it was better.

the powder is translucent and left no white cast, it helps with general redness

It's such a good product for acne skin, helps to soothe the breakouts and balance out the redness. Definitely recommend for any oily skin!

After using the Spirulina Zinc Treatment Loose Powder for a few weeks, I can say it controls oil well and gives a nice matte finish. However, be careful with the amount you use—it can feel a bit drying around the nose and sometimes settles into lines. It’s good, but you might need to experiment to get it just right.
