Crystal-infused beauty products are trending right now but there’s something even more luxurious you can use: products with crushed diamond powder. Before you start thinking this is crazy, the diamonds actually have some benefits. When crushed, it can actually act as an exfoliator, so you may see it as an ingredient in some skincare products.
However, most companies use this ingredient to make the skin look brighter. According to The Cut, “Companies also frequently use diamond powder as a brightener and optical diffuser in products.” Brands use the diamond powder in many products like highlighters to add some extra shine. So get dripping in actual diamonds with these beauty finds.
