The best brand ever
Yes!! Its SK-II \(^o^)/
again... price would never lie >.<~
I know maybe some of you would think that the price is too expensive for a merely skincare.
Because I did.
I knew it from Lee Yeon Hee *Korean actress*, She has been the model for SK-II in Korea for a long time and I knew her since I've got to like K-pop. She's very pretty and has a great skin. But I've became more interested on this brand because of a korean drama called "Ghost". Actually the plot was nothing to do with skincare, but Lee Yeon Hee was in it. Ghost also endorsed by SK-II and the bottle of the infamous "miracle water", which I would called it FTE (Facial treatment essence) later, appears many times in the drama.
I thought it was fun to use a light skincare *water based* with only patting it on my face, no need for cotton pad. Well, actually its up to you, but you have to pour more on the cotton pad than on your palm. It means more money to waste.
So I tried it, with 30 ml sample bottle.
Its stink >.<~ doesn't smell good at all, but quickly absorbed to my skin so the smell would also gone after a while.
I have a very dry skin but a bit oily on the T-zone. Moreover, I work on the top of the mountain and it makes my skin got more dry ever. The texture of my skin has more refined after using FTE and the dryness in my office would not likely have influence anymore to my skin. Even my friends here asked me why my skin got moist suddenly. I also got a new hobby, touching my face because it feels so smooth!!
FTE really works on me and most of people who using it. Some people said that if you want to start using the brand, then use FTE first *for at least a month or so* then you may add some others by the brand. It was said because your skin may purging or have a sudden breakout for some time until the dirt on your face gone. I've got no choice but listen to them. Luckily no breakout for me because of FTE.
Then I tried another bottle, Repair-C. You know with oily T-zone I have so many blackheads and whiteheads all over my nose, not only nose but my chin too >.<~ A week after I used Repair-C then a sudden breakout occured. There was a big red pimple on my nose, so I used the tea tree oil from bodyshop. It doesn't look effective and after the pimple got a little bit dried, I tried to peel it and you know what? A big whitehead fall off. It didn't feel hurt at all. My pore didn't seem to closed by itself and I use the repair-c again at night, then in the morning it looks smaller than before.
These big red pimples came 3 times, 2 of them already cleared off without any trace \(^o^)/
I also tried clear lotion to substitute my cleansing milk and toner. It works really well on my skin, my blackheads also fell off after my 1st use \(^o^)/
You also have to try clear mask in lotion, it moists your skin very well.
The one that doesn't really match with my skin is cellumination deep surge EX. Its a whitening and brightener cream. It makes my face looks so oily and doesn't absorbed as fast as the other products >.<~ The people I know who have tried this said the same thing, they don't like the texture.
I'd like to repurchase FTE, Repair-C and clear lotion everytime they're used up. I would also try cellumination essence and another cream by SK-II, maybe the UV lotion one..
I already spent almost 3 million rupiahs *maybe more* for only few bottles of SK-II >.<~ really too much for my wallet, but its more like investment. I'm in the middle of my 20s, before its too late I have to take a little care of my skin face from now on..
