Product Review: IWhite Korea Aqua Moisturizer Whitening Vita

Good morning my lovely readers! Today, I'll be reviewing another product from IWhite Korea, the Aqua Moisturizer Whitening Vita. 

I am never a fan of moisturizers before because most of the available moisturizer brands that we have in the Philippines tend to be heavy on my skin that it causes some breakouts and since it's hot and  humid in our country, I would feel oily some time after applying it. 

Later on, I realized how important it is to wear a moisturizer and keep my skin hydrated thus, I'm constantly on the look out to find a product that is best suited on my skin type. IWhite Korea's Aqua Moisturizer Whitening Vita piqued my curiosity because of its unique packaging and of course, I immediately bought a couple of it.

 Aqua Moisturizer Whitening Vita is a water-based moisturizer that has the following active ingredients:

• Mulberry Root Extract that contains arbutin which is known for inhibiting the melanin production and helps in achieving a fairer and even toned skin.
• Panax Ginseng which helps in cell regeneration and collagen production that is needed in reducing wrinkles and fine lines.
• Green Tea which has anti-bacterial properties that helps in preventing acne.

THUMBS UP

*** Packaging – How can I say no to its cute packaging right? As I've said, I find it unique. 

*** Affordability - For a moisturizer with this quality, I'd say it is very affordable. A 50 g. tube is priced at P169.00 while a 6 g. sachet is available for only P20.00.

*** Scent – It has a very light scent to it. People who have a certain sensitivity to strong scents in face products would definitely love this.

*** Consistency - It has a gel like texture which turns into a watery-like substance once applied on the skin.

*** Effectiveness – Well, as far as I'm concern, this product really does its job well. It does give my skin the hydration it needed leaving it soft and smooth. Since it is water-based, I recommend this for people who has combination to oily skin like mine. The formula is very light weight thus, it wouldn't feel sticky or greasy at all. It is very easy to apply and doesn't give me any breakouts. What more can I ask for?

*** Availability - It is available in all leading drugstores, department stores, and supermarkets nationwide.

Yes, YES! I will repurchase this product because I LOVE IT! It truly delivered what it promised to do. How about you? Have you tried any IWhite Korea products recently? Share your experience on the comments section below.

My Nightly Skin Care Routine

As promised, here's a blog post about my nightly skin care routine. Please remember that I have a combination skin type which is prone to acne with enlarge pores. There are certain products that maybe effective on my skin but might not work for you so always do an extensive research first before trying any skin care product. :)

I use Maxipeel Exfoliant Scrub as my facial wash because it cleanse my skin without drying it. Do you happen to experience those times when a facial wash is too harsh on your skin that it feels tight after every wash? Well, I don't get that with this exfoliant scrub so I guess, it works best for me. However, there are some write ups that says that you should change your facial wash after three months because your skin will grew tired of your old facial wash that it won't be as effective like the first time you use it. I haven't experience it yet but I'll update you guys.

Even though I don't wear any make up, I believe that using a toner is still important because it has other benefits aside from removing excess dirt and sebum that were not lifted by your facial wash. Since I have large and visible pores, I'm using the pore refining variant of maxipeel facial cleanser to somehow help me with this pore issue.

After cleansing and toning, I would apply the Maxipeel Micro-Exfoliant Cream. This works like the Maxipeel Exfoliant Solution without the visible peeling. This cream removes dead skin cells and also aids in drying up any breakout that I have. I'm using it once every night.

Finally, I also use this facial mask from IWhite Korea to help brighten up my skin. I only use this twice every week.

That's about it for my nightly skin care regimen. There maybe additional product or brand changes depending on my skin care needs but for the meantime, I'll stick with what I have. How about you guys? How do you take care of your skin? I would appreciate you sharing your insights about it to help other people who suffers from different skin conditions. Just leave a comment below. :)

See you soon!

My Morning Skin Care Routine

Since my last post, I've told you guys that I really have a very bad skin condition. I am suffering from acne and acne scars with large pores as well as uneven skin tone. It feels like no matter what I do, it will be hard to have a smooth skin thus I decided to have a simple morning skin care routine. This is just your basic cleanse, tone, moisturize, and special care regimen.

CLEANSE

I am using Maxipeel Exfoliant Scrub as my facial foam cleanser. It has microbeads that helps in removing dead skin cells and it also has a minty feel into it for additional "freshness". Unlike other facial cleansers, this cleans without drying my skin.

TONE

For my toner, I'm using the Pore Refining variant from the same brand. Using a toner will not only pick up the excess dirt on your skin that your facial cleanser was not able to remove but it will also balance your skin's pH level.

MOISTURIZE

Maxipeel's Moisturizing Cream tends to be on the "heavy" side that it breaks me out whenever I use it that's why I opted to get IWhite Korea's Aqua Moisturizing Cream instead. This moisturizer is like a gel out of the packet but turns into a watery substance once applied on your skin. I like it so much because it makes my skin well hydrated without that greasy feel.

SPECIAL CARE - SUN BLOCK

Another important step in a skin care regimen is using a sunblock. The higher the SPF, the better as it helps in protecting your skin from harsh UV rays that causes skin discoloration and premature ageing. It doesn't make my skin feel greasy and it also provides additional hydration for my face. The only downside of using this sunblock is that it leaves a white cast on my face but all in all it works good on me.

So there you go! :) I will be giving you an update on my nightly skin care routine on a separate blog post because I think it is much more complicated than my morning routine. 

See you soon!!! :)
