Skinfood - Fresh Apple Sparkling Pore Cream Review

During my trip to Seoul, I have purchased an insane amount of skincare items. Now that I have been using some of them, I want to share my experience on some of these items. Today's post will focus on the Skinfood Freh Apple Sparkling Pore Cream.





Texture
I love the texture on this cream. Since I have sensitive skin, I am always nervous about putting thick creams on my skin. This is a very thin and water-based cream. It definitely helps hydrate your skin in the winter months. However, during the colder weeks in Toronto, I found that this cream was not enough to keep my skin moisturized and I had to use some thicker cream - my Lancome Renergie Lift Volumetry to help me out.
Overall, I feel that this will be my perfect face cream for the spring and summer months!


Scent
The cream has this fresh and light perfume scent. When I first used the cream, I really liked the scent, it makes me feel fresh and clean. However, now that I have gotten used to the scent, I don't find it that special anymore.

Price
The price of the cream is relatively cheap for a mid-level brand. I bought it in Hong Kong for approximately 20 CAD. However, I feel that you can probably get it cheaper if you purchased it in Seoul.

Overall
I would give this a 4 out of 5!

This would be a great face cream for the summer due to its lightweight texture and I will definitely repurchase it!

Pantene Clinicare Conditioner Review

No comments

I've always had very dry hair, so since I'm in hong kong, I've been on the hunt for some good hair products! I usually wash my hair daily, so my ends tend to get very dry and wispy.

I've tried out the fructis and Pantene line available in Canada. I've used the conditioner and shampoos for both the dry and the normal hair, which didn't show much improvement. The one for color damage hair for both brands made my scalp very oily.

When I got to hong kong, I noticed that they have a different Pantene Clinicare line that is only available in hk, Tokyo, Taipei, and Singapore.

I decided to give it a try and the results were pretty good! I've been using the Time Renewal line. My hair has had significant improvements.

Pros:

  • Very moisturizing and helps to keep your hair silky smooth throughout the day
  • Only need a little squirt of product - Bottle lasts a very long time
  • Keeps your hair smelling wonderful all day (even if you sweat a little)
  • Softens up any frizzy hair that you have (my biggest issue)
Cons:
  • Approximately 75hkd or 10CAD per bottle - rather pricey in comparison to other drugstore brands that I have been using
  • Can only be purchased in Asia (the other Pantene formulae do not work as good for my hair)
 Regardless of the price, this is my current favorite conditioner!
