The packaging of Innisfree The Green Tea Seed Serum comes in a mossy green small plastic bottle with a pump. The nozzle has an extra capping that functions to prevent leakage. One of the reasons why I love Innisfree products is because they not only make quality products but make sure that the packaging is hygienic, spill-proof and travel-friendly. As you can see from the picture above, the bottle is semi-opaque so you can actually check how much of the serum is left. 

Content: 

The serum has a translucent appearance. It has a watery consistency and easily spreads through the skin. One pump is enough for the whole face as it is easily absorbed by the skin. It doesn't feel sticky or greasy but rather feels lightweight. After application, it leaves the skin feeling supple and soft like you haven't been stripped off of moisture from washing. 

Scent:

The scent is heavenly! Okay, I know I'm exaggerating a bit, but this serum has a mild green tea(citrusy) fragrance. It doesn't sting my nose nor it triggers my rhinitis. I really feel relax and re-energized every time I use this product.

Overall Verdict:

I now know why this product is a cult favorite. I literally fell inlove with this product and it has constantly been a part of my morning skin care routine. At first, I was a bit apprehensive into trying this since I have an oily, acne-prone skin but it did not make my skin look like an oil well rather it improved my skin tone. It made my skin look healthier and glowing. Since it easily is absorbed by the skin it doesn't leave me feeling sticky or greasy. The best part is that it didn't break me out at all.

Pros:

Good for combination - oily skin types.

Has high % content of natural green tea.

Has a mild citrusy fragrance.

Easily absorbs through the skin by patting motion; it does not sting.

The product doesn't feel sticky or greasy.

It doesn't break me out. 

I really can't say anything bad about this product aside from it might not suit dry skin because of the Alcohol content.

Repurchase? 

Absolutely! I think this product is absolutely amazing. This is affordable and can compete with the high-end brands of serum. 

Have you tried this? How was your experience? Did it work or not?

The product is enclosed in a mossy green tube-like packaging with a flip-open cap which is hygienic. Packaging is travel-friendly which means it wouldn't take up much space in your vanity. The flip-open cap is placed securely to avoid leakage. This tube can last for at least a month or two depending on your usage. 

Content:

The product has a milk-like cream consistency. It easily spreads around the skin after application, and with the right amount of water it turns to yogurt-like consistency, although it doesn't really produce much of a  lather like other foam cleansers do.

Scent:

As I mentioned earlier, I love Green Tea  not only for it's health benefits but also for it's refreshing and relaxing scent. But for some reason, every time I use this my nose gets irritated with the scent. It smells too strong and artificial. The scent doesn't go away even after washing it off which I find bothersome.

Overall verdict:

I found that this product is rather good to use after waking up in the morning because I don't need a heavy duty cleansing foam like when I have my daily make-up on. This foam cleanser also helps to calm some redness on my face. It leaves my face clean, sebum-free and ready for my morning routine. I have an oily skin type and I found that this cleansing foam helps to control the oil factory on my face.  I don't use this cleansing foam during “that time of the month” since I need a specialized cleanser for that <boooh! sensitive skin>. 

Pros:

Made of natural ingredients.

Good for normal to oily combination skin-types.

It is travel-friendly and hygienic to use.

It leaves the skin clean and sebum-free.

Cons:

The scent is too strong and artificial.

Not a heavy duty type of foam cleanser.

Not for dry skin types.

Would I repurchase this?

Of course since it's a good cleansing foam for my morning routine until I find a better one.

A. Innisfree Green Tea Cleansing Foam

❤️ Nature Republic Bulgarian Rose Gift Set

                   

Includes:

Removes skin dead cells easily and bring your akin back to life with our peeling mist --- Nature Republic Philippines

This product is pretty amazing, after spraying on your skin you will see small whitish particles together and will change color after you rub it, of course it depends on how dirty that area is. After that you rinse it with look warm water. I use this spray 1-2x a week on areas like elbow and knee or those that I feel rough.

❤️ Nature Republic Vitamin Facial Mist, Vitamin C 50ml

                       

❤️ Nature Republic Aloe Vera Soothing Gel 300ml

                   

This all in one gel is probably my #1 holy grail product. Keeping this in the refrigerator and then slapping a good amount on your face will give you an instant soothing relief. I usually put some of the gel on a cotton puff then leave it on my eyes for 10 mins and it will de-puff my swollen eyes. This “miracle” jar can last up to 6 months depending on usage.

❤️ Nature Republic Aloe Natural Fermentation Cleansing Tissue

                              

Since I am a fan of Aloe Vera, I wouldn't miss the chance to try these. I would say it does well particularly on cleansing since it even removed my waterproof mascara. I bought these on a 1+1 so these packs lasted me about 4 months. I would definitely recommend everyone to buy these babies.

❤️ Nature Republic Nature's Deco Assorted Make Up Puff 20P Set

                   

Super cheap and a great sponge to use for BB cream or foundation application. Since it's disposable, you may use it for about 10-20x, dispose and grab a new one. 

❤️ Nature Republic Aloe Vera Mask Sheet

                       

Of course in every skin care routine, mask sheet are one of the highlights and the one I won't ever be with out. Mask sheets are important for hydration and nourishment of the skin.

❤️ Nature Republic School Diary Blemish Patch

                    

Another thing to look out for with any Korean Beauty Outlet are their freebies because they give alot. I wasn't able to take separate picture earlier but they gave me Argan Oil Mask Sheets, Nail Polish, samples of Nature Republic First Emulsion, EXO cards and posters.

They also gave me a membership card, I think you can avail one after purchasing products worth PhP1000

(1) Hayan Korean Cosmetics:

     

Hayan Moisture Lip Balm - P150($3.45); Hayan Whitening & EGF Mask Sheet For Woman

Got these items from their outlet store in SM. 

                                 

I bought this one from @koreana_ph at instagram for only P350 ($8) for the full size tube of 45ml. I think this is probably the cheapest snail product I bought so far. What really caught my attention is that it's a SNAIL GEL CREAM. Snail products have been pretty popular around Asian beauty culture. I wonder why gel cream when I think it's really only gel at first glance. 

        

The packaging is pretty simple. The box and tube are in light pink shade, but what I love about their box is the Mizon authentication sticker -- we all know how fake one are bound to find their in the market once a product becomes popular. The full size tube is great for travel purposes. It doesn't take up much space in my bag :)

         

What I love about the packaging is how hygienic the product is. When you take the cap off you will see that the tube is sealed (meaning it's not sampled or contaminated). Thumbs Up!

Smell: None. It doesn't smell funny either. 

Consistency and Application: 

         

Although this is said to be a Gel Cream, the consistency in my opinion is gel through and through. It slips and is absorbed easily by my skin, thanks to the silicone ingredient. I really don't think of this as a cream since it doesn't leave my skin in a oily state unlike some creams and despite of it's snail consistency.

I used this one the first time as my last basic skincare step, and I woke up feeling my skin very moisturized and hydrated in the morning. Since I usually have one or two zits appearing due to the nature of my profession --- zombie nurse --- I tried to use this on one of my zits to see if it really has that trouble vestige care. I think my zits dried up after 2 days of application, so overall I think this is good for healing up zits. But so far, I haven't seen some of my stubborn spots to fade after 1 week of using this product. 

I think with continuous usage, maybe 6 weeks, it would be beneficial for your skin. Although I don't use this everyday, I use this whenever I want to relax my stressed out face. I usually put this in the refrigerator for 30mins, then use this as an overnight mask to give me the hydrated and relax face in the morning.

Pros:

1. Affordable for only PHP350.00 ($8)

2. Doesn't leave my skin oily after application.

3. Good for hydration.

4. Hygienic

Cons:

1. Pretty average like any gel moisturizer.

2. Doesn't live up to my expectation.

Repurchase/Recommended?

I think it can be used as an everyday moisturizer for hydration, but that's it. :)
