Review: COSRX Centella Blemish Cream

Greetings~!


I'm back again with yet another product review from my Wishtrend haul which you can read all about here.


Product Info:

Brand: COSRX
Product: Blemish cream
Size: 30ml
Price: USD19.80 (not including shipping)
Where to buy: Wishtrend (ongoing promotions or special deals will be listed down below)


Additional Info: (pictures & info in this section is taken from wishtrend.com)







Packaging:


Front part of the box:

Side part of the box:

Back part of the box:



Other side:



Top part of the box:



Bottom part of the box:



Once lid is lifted:





Comes with a spatula:

Rather small bottle:



Appearance is exactly like its box:



Back part of bottle:







Twist kind of cap:



Lid comes with a lil handle for ease of opening:


Size:


30ml. About the same size as the ciracle red spot cream which you can read all about here

Texture:


Its texture is more like a normal cream type moisturiser. White but once applied, can be blended out easily. 


Scent:


It actually smells exactly the same as the Ciracle Red Spot cream.

My Experience:


Used this as a pimple/blemish cream rather than a moisturiser which makes this lasts so much longer than if used as a moisturiser. Applied on pimples and scars every night. Pimples reduced greatly. This does not break me out. Scars are lightened though I'm not sure if it's just this or combination of the OST serum as well as the water-gel which you can read all about here and here. I do not apply this during daytime, only at night.

Pros:

Minimises pimples & blemishes
Lightens scars (though again I'm not sure if it's because of this or combination of other products)
Lasts really long!


Cons:

Can only be found on Wishtrend
No place to keep the spatula ( I love Naruko because you can keep the spatula on the lid inside the bottle, wish they designed it that way as well)

Conclusion:

Great as a blemish cream!

Will I repurchase?

Yes

Review: (I'm from) Vitamin Tree Water-Gel

Greetings~!

Have you read my last post on the Wishtrendtv deal? That post was a brief, really really brief intro to this product. It was how I discovered this product. Read all about it here.


A lil pic to start this post:


Product Info:

Brand: I'm from
Product: Moisturiser
Size: 75g
Price: USD28 (shipping not included)
Where to buy: Wishtrend    (any promotions related to this product will be listed down below)


Additional Info: (all pictures and information in this section was taken from wishtrend.com)










Packaging:


The front part of the box:


Side part of the box:

Back part of the box:


Other side of the box:


Top part of the box:


Bottom part of the box:

Once lid is lifted:

See that little spatula? :


Take the bottle out and compare it with the box:


Size of spatula in comparison with bottle:

Front part of bottle:


Side part of bottle:


Other side:

Note that it is a twist kind of cover:


Texture:


Basically, colourless. And true to its name, it is watery. If you ever use Laneige's Water sleeping pack, this gel is exactly like that.


Scent:


Smells fresh, very faint fruity smell. Claims to be fragrance free, so I'm guessing it's the natural smell of vitamin? 

My Experience:

Used this every night as a moisturiser. Lasted pretty long. Started using on 11/4, finished on 7/7. About 3 months worth if you use this only at night. I would say it lasts really long since I have a big face actually. And a little goes a long way for this gel since only very small amount is needed to cover the whole face. I absolutely love the watery texture and how easily it glides on my skin. It gives plenty of moisture, I survived winter with this! And mind you that I have dry skin type. This didn't break me out at all. I would say that this gel has lighten my acne scars though I don't know for sure if it's this gel or all the combination of products I used.

Pros:

Lightweight (very light and you won't feel like it's clogging your pores or anything)
Not sticky after applied (I hate how some/most moisturisers tend to make your skin feel slightly sticky)
Big size ( lasted 3 months)
does what it claims

Cons:

Expensive (not high end kind of expensive, but out of my budget)
Only available on Wishtrend 

Conclusion:

If you are looking for the lightweight type of moisturiser which doesn't feel sticky after applied, then this is the right moisturiser for you. Especially if you are aiming for whitening, more to evening out your skintone due to acne scarring. For people with sensitive skin prone to acne breakouts, this gel is definitely for you.

Will I repurchase?

Yes (though I am wishing for better deals as the Wish, try, love deal is already over.)

Review: C20 Pure Vitamin C 21.5 Advanced Serum

Greetings~!

Note: This is a very picture heavy post. :P

It's to make up for my lack of post this month.

Here's a look at the product before I continue with a very elaborate review of it:




Product Info: 

Name: C20 Pure Vitamin C 21.5 Advanced Serum
Size: 30ml
Price: USD29.99  (I'll list some promotions regarding this serum down below, at the last section)
Where to buy: Wishtrend


Packaging:



The Front Part

Side part

Back part of the box

The other side with English

The bottom with manufacturing date & expiry date

Top part of the box

Open the lid


This is what you can see once you lift the lid


Tadah! The bottle

Back part of the bottle


Dropper provided

Open the cap

& Replace the cap with the dropper provided :D



Texture:


This is to show you that it is colourless as compared to the previous version.

This is to show you the colour on a white piece of paper:
Told you it is colourless. 

It is absolutely not sticky at all compared to the old version.
Though after your skin has absorbed the serum, when you pat your skin, you'll feel a tad bit sticky



Scent:

Exactly the same scent as the old version.
For those who never tried the previous version, it smells like orange. more like vitamin C tablets?


My Experience:


Just to let you readers know, I've used this for a whole month before actually reviewing this. Have fun looking at the before & after pics of my horrendous skin.


Tried to upload day 1 & after week 1 but my internet is so so so slow. Will update it soon
For now, just have a look at my skin condition after 2 weeks, 3 weeks & 4 weeks.

Week 2, Week 3, Week 4
Notice that glow? After a month of usage


Week 2, Week 3, Week 4



I must say though, pictures shown might not show any dramatic effect whatsoever but I personally do feel that my skin is healthier. I do realise that bb cream stays on longer & my skin is not as dry as it was before using this product. About acne scars, I don't think this serum does anything. Though, this serum does make my skin look healthier. When I apply bb cream, it looks so so so natural.



Pros:

Skin looks a lot healthier  (I swear, pictures may not show it but my face is no longer dry! :D)
Last long (surprisingly since I have a large face, thought this would only last for a month)
Nice scent  (loving anything fruity :P)
Dropper provided

Cons:

A lil expensive (for me, coz I'm just that stingy)
Can only get it online (but, everyone's loving online shopping now right?)
Does not lighten acne scars (at least not for me)
Hassle to always bring it out from the fridge & then keep it back in the fridge (lazy much?)

Will I purchase?:

Actually, yes. I would but only if the promotion is really good.

Conclusion:

This serum is a highly raved product and for good reasons. It may not have worked out the way I thought it would but it did gave me healthier looking skin which must have been the original purpose of it. Though it did not lighten my acne scars, it might lighten yours since I've seen other bloggers' reviews and this serum did lighten their scars. Probably because my scars are too old? But hey, takes a very long time to heal old acne scars right? I'm not giving up!
