Innisfree The Green Tea Seed Serum Review

Reviewing another bestselling Innisfree product in the world. Other couple of Innisfree's bestselling products that I reviewed are the Jeju Volcanic Pore Cleansing Foam. You guys can read about it HERE and the Super Volcanic Pore Clay Mask (review HERE).


"The green tea seed serum is awarded globally as best moist serum for 19 times!" photo taken from Innisfreeworld.

I received this green tea serum in Innisfree's Best Loved Collection pack which consists of the serum itself, the super volcanic pore clay mask and orchid enriched cream. The collection was gifted to me as a giveaway gift.

Description
A moisturizing and nourishing serum containing eco-friendly Jeju fresh green tea and green tea seeds.

What it is
A moisturizing serum with organic Jeju green tea and green tea seeds that hydrate your skin from deep within! 

1. More moisture and freshness with 100% green tea. 
Rich in amino acids and minerals, green tea from Jeju's own green tea leaves hydrates your skin. 

2. Dual Moisture-Rising Technology™ derived from green tea and green tea seed oil 
The fresh green tea deeply hydrates your skin and the green tea seed oil creates a strong moisture barrier to keep your skin moisturized longer. 

3. The first thing to apply after a face wash! 
As the first skincare product you use, it helps hold moisture in your skin and prevents moisture loss. 

*Product suggestions for the 3 most common types of skin
- oily skin: The green tea fresh line
- combination skin: The green tea balancing line
- dry skin: The green tea moisture line
- special moisturizing and nourishing care line: The green tea seed line

How to use

Pump a dollop of the serum on your hand and apply it on your face and neck.

What it doesn't have

5-free system : parabens, synthetic colorants, mineral oil, animal-originated ingredients, imdazolidinyl urea

Consistency

The serum is clear, not runny, light weight, has a light nice green tea scent, absorbs nicely into the skin without leaving any oily nor greasy residues, it doesn't feel heavy.

My thoughts
The serum came in 5ml in the Best Loved Collection pack, the original size is 80ml. I only get to use it roughly around 2 weeks, I emptied the serum recently. I used it day and night with 2 pumps, applied only to targeted areas such as my cheeks and forehead.

Before I use this serum, I didn't know that the serum is best suitable for people with dry skin, while theres a line for oily skin, which is the green tea fresh line.

Anyway, my oily skin likes it, it didn't break me out. Since it is light weight and absorbs fully and quickly into the skin, it didn't make my skin oilier even during daytime. Hence my skin stays moisturized and hydrated. I can even layer another product on top of it. It is refreshing, gentle and softening too. I am pretty pleased with the serum. So glad to try it out!

My rating: 5/5

Will I purchase?
At the moment no since I prefer serums that have specialty for troubled skin(I know green tea can help with troubled skin too but I prefer a serum with a strong targeted concern) however I can see myself grabbing the serum when my skin is feeling dry.

Will I recommend?
Yes, it is an appropriate lightweight moisturizer for people with oily skin. Dry~normal skin especially may love this serum. I personally think that it suits all skin types. Except if you are sensitive to green tea.....

Simple Skincare Kind To Eyes Eye Make-Up Remover Review | Lookfantastic Mini Review

Annyeong, Everyone~ I ordered this Simple Skincare Kind To Eyes Eye Makeup Remover off Lookfantastic because I was looking for a replacement to my favourite point makeup remover which is the Boomdeahdah Lip & Eye Remover. It was my first time buying something from Lookfantastic and I think their service is quite good. It is a UK-based online store that ships worldwide for FREE. I live for free shipping sites!!!! I remembered that I ordered sometime in November 2016 and my order got shipped out ON THE SAME DAY . I was amazed at their fast shipping service. The free shipping didn't come with a tracking number but thats alright. It arrived a month to Brunei and my small item was packed in a big box. They also included a voucher to use within the UK but unfortunately I had to throw it out since I'm not living in the UK. Overall I'm happy shopping with Lookfantastic and would definitely buy from them again. My item was received in a good condition too, no leakage
