Apothéke

If you’re a fan of mineral make-up and are looking for something extra in your beauty regimen – look no further. Founded by a pharmacist who has witnessed the benefits of mineral make up, Apothéke was conceived as an innovative cosmetic solution to offer the modern woman a choice in customizing her beauty needs.

A few words from our founder… “Having a genetic inheritance of oily skin, I fully understand the challenges facing women in finding make-up that makes one look great and yet gentle on your skin. Having used mineral make-up for over 2 years, I have taken the time to try out various products to see what works best. With these results, I wanted to share that knowledge with women out there who face the same issues. Not everyone is aware but not all mineral make-up are made equal. Hence the importance of knowing what goes into the product you’re using! Apothéke is committed to providing you with the highest quality of products and au natural ingredients – at a fraction of the cost. Thank you for your generous support and have a truly organic experience!” Love, Michelle

Apothéke Mineral Make-Up Apothéke is a range of non-comedogenic products that are stripped bare of harmful components whilst providing excellent coverage, a superior finish, and yet protect your skin.

This is achieved through the combination of the best formulas available and functional natural extracts that confer additional benefits such as oil absorption and antioxidant effects. So depending on your needs such as oil control, skin brightening, managing acne prone or sensitive skin, you will be able to find the perfect formula for yourself. Janice is wearing Honey Medium (Foundation), Clay Blush (Blush), Pearl Nude (Eyeshadow) and Silk & Pearl Veil (Mineral Veil).

"Hi Michelle, I received the sample kit today. Your little sample containers are so so so cute! And the company brand very well printed. The items are very pleasing to look at. I look forward to enjoy the benefits of your cosmetics." - Sophia Ho (23-Feb-12)

"While I can't tell if my skin has improved from using the powders, it certainly is gentle to the skin and non-comedogenic (my skin's rather sensitive to makeup and wld have broken out otherwise). To me, it has served its purpose as a makeup - excellent coverage without the cakey-ness (is there such a word?) and the skin definitely looks waaayyy better than it actually is :p" - Hui Jing Lir (17-Jun-11)

"Hi Michelle, I've used the powder & blusher for a few days already - found that it's very natural & my t-zone less oliy after lunch. In addition, I'd like to add that I chose Apotheke over other brands cos it's formulas for different skin types, like combination skin which is my skin type. I believe in the long run mineral powder is healthier for my skin." - Jane Chan (23-Mar-11)

"Hi Mich, Have tried the products and I think results are great! But perhaps I have chosen the wrong colour, abit too light for my skin colour. Nevertheless, i think your products are great." - YY (18-Dec-10)

"Hi michviv, I have received the items. The coverage is good and gives my face a dewy (non-powedery) look and it can last the whole day, meaning less touch up. My face appeared less oily using yr foundation too." - Maggie (3-Dec-10)

"I like the powder very much. So much less hassle to use than the liquid ones, & no sticky feeling :) I feel that the Cream medium tone foundation suits me well. Very natural looking. Still can't decide between Clearskin or essential though...will try a few more days to decide. Will post my order for the full size later. Thanks much!" - Chris Ng (18-Sept-10)

"At first the foundation was a little hard to blend, maybe bcos I'm not used to using brush to apply, always using sponge. But after applying the veil, it looked perfect :) the lucent powder is really a nice highlight too! Not forgetting the blush.. I didn't know the coverage would be so perfect and my skin looks so smooth and flawless, yet natural at the same time.

I have tried soooooooo many different makeup my life and none of them delivers such satisfying results.it's also my first time trying out mineral makeup. I'm really happy with ur products and will be ordering the full size items as soon as i decide if i prefer clearskin or essential. As for the veil, clearskin is good for my normal skin too. And u were right about the shade, fair is good for me :)

Thank you so much for bringing in this range of mineral makeup." - Chanel Au (10-Sept-10)

"Fair Clearskin shade works great for me. I like the pink undertones it gives me. The samples are a great way to test out. i like the finish of the minerals, not too flat & slightly dewy. Am considering the full size version.

I've been wearing clearskin for abt 4 days, & i like the dewyness & natural finish the formula give mes. Quite good coverage, i will say. I tried out the clay blush today & it looks a bit dark for me. Will works better for girls with medium shade. But the pigments are really very purse friendly. I just dab on a few & the color shows out true & obvious." - Felicia Seah (23-Aug-10)

"The Clearskin Treatment Veil is a good shade for my skin and its does'nt wear off. Its stays on my face and its really fine. Thank you for the products." - Serena Loi (11-Aug-10)

"Hi Michelle, I've tried the mineral powders. Being the first time trying mineral powders, I actually like them a lot :) they does help in controlling the oil on my face and I'm satisfied with it...I would like to try more of your products, so this time I would like to order the following items..." - Hui Lin (1-Aug 10)

"I like the products, but the foundation shade turned out to be of a lighter shade than expected. Looks very natural and has a dewy effect. :) Can hardly tell that I have make up on.
Have recommended it to a few of my friends. Will return to get more products from you once I've used up this sample." - Emily Tan (3-Jul 10)

"After using for 1 week, I think the products are not bad, it is light on skin and coverage is not bad. Covers the pores but not all of the blemish.
Because my skin is considered more oily so it doesn't last the entire day. Its ok though, cos anyway I always need to touch up after work.
The eyeshadow is particularly good for enhancing the eyes, especially as lower lid liner, quite nice.
After putting on the mineral veil, my face does look made up but after it sets awhile, it looks natural already.

So overall I am quite pleased with the products. Thanks" - Andrina Loo (17-Jun 10)

" I started using the sample basic kit( foundation, powder and bronzer) a couple days back and found that it provides good and yet natural coverage that doesnt oxidise or become as cakey as easily as the other mineral and non-mineral mu that i used previously. Now, im a new Apotheke Mineral MU covert!" - Stephanie He (11 Jun-10)

"Hi michiv, just to let you know that the antioxidant veil you recommended works really well in controlling the oil on my face after make up.

As for the foundation, both are quite good." - Seow Wei (26 May-10)

"Allow me to share my feedback after using Apotheke minerals (my orders were Clearskin Foundation in Cream Fair, Honey Fair, Honey Medium, Antioxidement Treatment Veil and a kabuki brush at $15) - :

Worth the buy: Of all the mineral foundations i had, Apotheke foundation has the finest texture of all! It stayed longer despite the humid weather and it controlled the shine. The foundation could be used as a concealer and it didnt turn cakey despite the fact that i had oily eyelid. Thumbs up! As for the 3 colors that i had chosen, all of them suited my light-medium skin tone. Weird right?

I didn't experience any breakouts though, not sure if it is because of the green tea extract in Antioxidant Treatment Veil. Green tea is good in controlling pimples from what i know." - Doreen Nah (2-May-10)

"I like the texture of the mineral powder. I find that it is as fine as ELF’s foundation and finer than Everyday Minerals’. I also like the fact that after several hours, I don’t get a caked on look around my nose and forehead, unlike ELF’s one.

The medium coverage is also great cos by not concealing my blemishes 100%,I am able to achieve a fresh flawless look, instead of a heavily-foundation covered face. So far I haven’t had breakouts after using it for 12hrs long, 3 days in a row. I haven’t felt the need to touch up either, just blotting my t-zone was enough." - Hiryani (20-Apr-10)

" I'd tried the foundation and I like it. I've a combination skin but I don't feel oily towards the end of the day with this make up." - Meiying (08-Apr-10)

"I absolutely love the foundation. Its totally new and refreshing compared to the normal kind I have previously been using. Being new to mineral makeup, its definitely a plus point and the best thing is, at the end of the day, I don't feel oily at all!!! Also, its very easy to apply on the face. after trying it out, I must say I will never go back to the previous kind of makeup anymore. Mineral makeup is definitely a must and a worth it try. Will order more from u again once the samples are running low." Cindy Han (16-Mar-10)
