Innisfree The Green Tea Seed Cream - Review

Long time no blog... Phew.. Last month has been a busy month for me and I'm not in the mood in blogging but I miss it now and I hope I can blog even more. I'll review my repurchase and holy grail product for me.


Innisfree has a place in my heart especially for the skincare. I'm an easy to get bored person when it comes to skincare but when I repurchase a product, it means that I like it very much. Innisfree Green Tea series is in my repurchase list! I love Laneige water bank series and been using it too but sometimes I need a cheaper version that works well on my skin and I've found it. I love the natural concept and how their products are free from harmful ingredients.


Details

What it is
[ Anti-oxidative cream made with green tea seeds for deep moisturization and nourishment] 

1. More moisturizing and fresh with the 100% squeezed green tea 
Rich in amino acids and minerals, green tea from the fresh Jeju green tea leaves hydrate your skin. 

2. Dual Moisture-Rising TechnologyTM from the green tea and green tea seed oil 
The fresh green tea water deeply hydates your skin and the green tea seed oil creates a strong moisture barrier to keep your skin moisturized for a longer period.

Packaging







Green box made from recycled paper just like typical Innisfree products. Complete English description on the box. Their web is very informative too, unlike most Korean brands that don't have proper web.




Green color represents the green tea line. It's made from sturdy plastic, not glass, to support the go green campaign. In official Innisfree store you can even bring back the packaging to get recycled.

They sealed the cream inside. It's a good thing because I often found it messy at some other brands.



Color, Texture and Scent



The color is white just like normal white cream. Innisfree doesn't use artificial color so it's the natural cream color.
Texture is nice, creamy but not too thick and not sticky at all after getting absorbed. I really love the texture because most of the time I got disappointed with other cream being too thick or too dry without proper moisture.
All the green tea line has typical nice green tea scent with floral hint. I really love and fall in love with the scent. It's refreshing, natural and fresh.



Review

The green tea seed line has more nutrition than the usual moisture line. This one looks thick but it spreads easily and feels awesome on my skin. It makes my skin moist, plump but not sticky at the same time. I love to use it even on summer in a very hot day, it doesn't melt or makes my skin looks oily. 

The consistency is somehow in between Laneige Water Bank Gel Cream and Moisture Cream. It's not as light as the gel cream but not as melting as the moisture cream. 




Pros:
+ Moist but not sticky
+ Refreshing scent
+ Absorb fast

Cons:
- None

Overall:
Love the texture and the scent. I really love this cream and will keep repurchasing it. It's more affordable (than Laneige) but gives really good result, too.

Review: IOPE Air Cushion Sunblock EX No.22 Ice Shimmer Beige

IOPE is a brand from Amore Pacific. The medium high collection similar with Laneige and Mamonde. The skin care range is more for older people, while Laneige and Mamonde are for younger people. This is my first IOPE. It is really best selling, sold 1 every 30 seconds in the world. I also heard that it is featured in many magazines, got award, etc... I am curious with this air cushion thing. and it is really good to know there is a compact sunblock with high SPF (it's 50!!). Since it is superrrr hot here in Bali, where I live, I don't like wearing cream sunblock. *Sorry for blurry picture* The box is thick because it contains the compact sunblock + FREE REFILL... Love it the free one. You also get the small booklet for product description inside. Description It is 4 in 1 function: brightening, UV protection, make up, cooling. The cooling effect is new to me, I never have cooling effect product before. Really all in ...

Quick News from Etude House! Etude Hose, why are you keep making me broke? Maybe for some people. it's really true. They are now going on their spring collection as the new lips fit already launched. A few days ago, there is something new and it's so exciting and colorful.  Etude House Any Cushion has been a hit and it's best selling item. Do you remember the last year Sweet Recipe collection, I reviewed the   Etude House Sweet Recipe Baby Choux Base #2 Berry . And now they are combining both of them and creating a new Etude House Magic Any Cushion. I love how they look. They're just like macaroons to me! Kyaa... There are 3 colors just like the Baby Choux Base, Peach, Mint and Berry. It claims that the cushion can magically tone up the skin. So if you have redness, you can choose the mint one. If you have pale skin like me, berry is the perfect one, and peach can also whiten your skin tone. I love this idea because it is more practical becaus...

Review: Eveline Glicerini Hand and Nail Cream Bio Olive + Karite Butter

Back then, my mom bought me this hand cream at Sasa Hongkong. At first, I was sceptical about this because I've never heard about it before,  Eveline is a pretty name for a girl but never heard about them on cosmetics or so. It's a brand from Poland that has been sold worldwide. I love Sasa because they sell a lot of products, so many brands that I don't know and they are affordable. I hope Sasa will open in Indonesia, someday *dreaming*. After searching and browsing, I'm surprised that they have so many products for make up and care (face, ,body, hair). Such a lot of products. And I've found this on their web, the description of the hand cream and what's in it. GLYCERINE CONCENTRATED HAND AND NAIL CREAM DEEPLY NOURISHING + REGENERATING BIO OLIVE + KARITE BUTTER strengthens nails  48h perfectly absorbing formula NATURAL ACTIVE INGREDIENTS Glycerine hand cream ensures deep nourishment and intense regeneration. Makes even very damaged and dehydrate...
