Product Review: Innisfree Super Volcanic Pore Clay Mask

This clay mask with its super volcanic cluster capsules powerfully absorbs sebum to intensively resolve pore concerns.

(Tightens pores + Removes sebum + Exfoliate Deep Skin Cells + Offers Deep Cleansing + Enhances Skin Tone + Provides Cooling Effect)
     I am so thankful that I discover deep cleansing, by using clay mask. It is often used once or twice a week. It is also designed to clean those deep seated dirt in your pores that your daily cleanser are not able to remove. Today we will talk about a Korean product which is "Innisfree Super Volcanic Pore Clay Mask".  The product claims that it is made of Jeju volcanic clay which came from the minerals released by the explosion of Jeju volcano.


Price: Php499 - sale
Php650 - original price
100 mL
Where to buy: Online stores (such as Althea) and 
Physical Stores (such as Kstyle PH they also ship nationwide)

  • Packaging - the packaging is neat, clean and simple which I like. It comes with a      gorgeous box that speaks korean but it does indicate that it has 100mL, a short description of the product, direction for use, its ingredients and cautions. The packaging of the product itself also speak korean but what I love is the details of the packaging. I think they really put an effort onto it. Also it has its name embossed at the top of its tin cap which I think is really cute. See photo below:

  • Price - Php499 is already pricey here in the Philippines what more its original price of Php650 but in returen, you have a lot of product (100mL) and given that you only use it twice a week this will really last a lifetime.
  • Scent- - it has clay scent but not over powering. You can also smell it while applying but will definitely ade away once dried up. I have no issues or concern regarding the scent, it is totally fine with me.
  • Quality - It does what it claims, tightens pores, enhance skin tone, etc. I can't emphasize enough but this is worth its price. you can definitely feel/see the difference after use. I use it twice a week, for 20 minutes on my face then sheet mask right after. Yes, instant mini spa at home 😉 and I love it. Definitely improves everything onto my face skin.


     Overall, this is 4.5/5 for me due to its price, but still I will recommend this for those who can afford. This is a must try if you really want a quality clay mask. Will I repurchase? Maybe I'll try other kind of clay mask, with the same quality but lower price, hihi. Thank you all for reading. See you on my next blog.

Product Review: Olay Total Effects 7-In-One Day Cream Normal SPF 15

     They say "Age is just a number", I say "It's okay to age, for as long as you age beautifully and gracefully"

     Whether you are in your teens, 20's, 30's or 40's, using sunscreen is a must. It is highly recommended that you wear that sun protection factor even just in your 20's to prevent premature aging. And with consistent use, surely your future self will thank you for such care.

     Anyways, today I will share my thoughts about Olay Total Effects 7-In-One Day Cream Normal SPF 15. 

     

Php199.00
Where to buy: Department Store / Watson

For 7 Signs of Youthful Looking Skin
1. Fine lines and wrinkles: reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
2. Uneven tone: balances and evens out skin tone
3. Age spots: reduces appearance of age spots
4.  Uneven texture: smoothes and evens out skin texture
5. Dryness: provides nourishing moisturisation
6. Dullness: gives skin a healthy radiance
7. Pores: minimizes the appearance of pores

        Lets start with the:
  • Packaging - It comes with a black-and-gold box and the packaging itself has goldish body and black pump secreting just the right amount of product, which I think is so cute and unique. 
  • Price - Given that it has 12g of products I think it is affordable for its packaging and quality. I also like that it is easily available.
  • Quality - It is yet so far one of the best day cream I had ever tried (next to Clean&Clear Moisturizer with SPF, which I could no longer find in the market). The product itself is a mousse-like cream but it is easily absorbed, non-sticky and doesn't clog pores. A bit overwhelming right but that is how it works on me. It can be comfortably use under makeup and has a decent scent. It also doesn't break me out (though I don't have sensitive skin). It has a SPF which means it doesn't just gives you the 7 signs of youthful looking skin but it also protects your skin from the sun.

     I still prefer the Clean&Clear more (it is my holy grail) because it gives me a pinkish glow and it is so lightweight but at least I found an alternative. So, overall, I'll give this product a 4.5/5 score and I highly recommend it. For those with sensitive skin, make sure to check the ingredients to avoid breakouts and use at your own risk. Cons? Maybe the lightweight factor after you applied it. But once it is absorbed (which will take few minutes), we're all good. Thank you for reading. Please do comment down below your thoughts about this product too.

Product Review: Collagen Moisturising and Firming Toner by Watson


     This post is all about my fave slash holy grail toner from Watsons. I once was not very much fond of toners till I use this product. I find some toners too drying and harsh for my skin. But since I am currently inspired by the Korean Skincare, I realized the importance of a toner. So, let's begin.

"Collagen by Watsons Moisturising & Firming Toner has an alcohol, colourant and mineral oil free formula that cares for our skin. Enriched with Hyaluronic Aid and Corn Gluten Amino Acid to help replenish and retain skin moisture, it leaves your skin firmer, softer, more supple and radiant after use." 


Php200.00 / 150mL
Where to buy: Watsons

     Toners does not just removes dirt but also brings back the Ph balance and prep your skin after cleansing it. I accidentally bumped into this product when I was searching for a good toner since some korean brand toners are quite expensive (ranging from Php500.00 and up).When I searched for this product, I saw that it has quite a nice reviews and feedbacks, so I gave it a try. Anyways, I am not using any cotton pads or cotton balls when I'm using it. I merely splash onto my palms, rub it in and pat it on my face gently. I kind of use it as an essence.

     Now, regarding the product, these are my thoughts:

  • Packaging - I love its packaging. I believe it's very korean haha :) It comes with a gold box providing all the details about the product. And the toner itself comes into a plastic cylinder-like packaging with black cap with its name (as seen in the picture above). It is nice and sturdy and nothing complicated.
  • Quality - It is true when it says that it will make your skin firmer, softer, more supple and radiant after every use. I am quite impressed right after my first use. It truly minimize your pores and gives you a radiant skin (when use consistently). It is also easily absorbed by the skin. I even use it on my underarms 😜 and it is effective. After cleansing my underarms every night, I splash some of this before I go to sleep. And I like the result.
  • Scent - It has its nice, clean smell on it. Not overpowering. 
  • Consistency - It is different from the other toners in the market when it comes to consistency. It is  not water-like. It is quite slimey, if that makes sense. Will make your face quite sticky at first but will definitely fade away once absorbed by the skin. Also, it is just normal that it forms some bubbles when you rub onto your palms. 

      One thing I also like about this product is it will really last a long time. Given that it is 150mL, you will still have a lot after a week even when you use it day and night, which I do. I love this product and will  definitely repurchase when I finish my first bottle. I highly recommend this. I think everyone should give it a try as it really works on me. Cons? None, actually. Overall it is 5/5.
