Brands are appealing to value-conscious consumers with concentrated powdered products designed to be activated with water at the time of use, like LOoPHA's travel-friendly Hand + Body Powder Wash. These powder-to-gel hand and body washes are formulated with surfactants that effectively cleanse and comfort skin without leaving it feeling dry or stripped.
It's easy to assume powdered personal care products will feel chalky or less luxurious, but those misconceptions are challenged with formulas that transform to deliver a sensorial experience on par with traditional formulas with water as the primary ingredient.
These new cleansers reimagine core scents from the brand: Broadleaf Forest, Oud + Amber, and Chalk, which plays with notes of crushed mint, fresh saffron, sugared anise, and powdered musk.
