Review: Garnier Sakura White Day Cream SPF 21/PA+++

Good day everyone!

Today I'm gonna make a review about Garnier Sakura White Day Cream SPF21/PA+++. I already have this product since mei or june, I forgot when exactly I bought this product. I purchased it immediately when I saw this product at department store without think twice in order to make my face looks brighter and healthier and it only costs idr 19.000! Super cheap right? So, does Garnier Sakura White work well for my skin? Let's check my review. 

Garnier Sakura White promise that you can get pinkish radiant skin just like sakura flower in only 4 weeks.

 It comes in a jar packaging with soft pink color. I love the packaging, it's so cute ^^. Sadly This Product doesn't come with spatula so make sure you wash your hand well before using this garnier sakura white.

It also has SPF21/PA+++ to protect your skin from the harmful UVA and UVB. SPF only protects our skin from UVB and PA stands for protection grade of UVA (UVA light is caused by aging factors) system and is the Japanese measurement of sun protection, which is based on the Persistent Pigment Darkening (PPD) reaction reading at 2-4 hours of sun exposure.  PA is a protective level of strength to mark the three PA+, PA++ and PA+++.(Resource: Skincareclub.wordpress.com)

 The cream itself has soft pink color and sakura scent (maybe, since I don't know how sakura smells like). This one which comes in a jar and has SPF has thick consistency and has texture similiar with mousse. I heard that the one that comes in a tube is lighter and for oily skin, this one which comes in a jar and has SPF is supposed for normal to dry skin (this explains why my face became oily in only 2 hours).

(oh my face T_T)

It blends easily and absorb fast on skin. Garnier sakura white gives instant brightness when applied. It doesn't give sticky feeling like usual day cream when applied. After applied it my face began to oily around 2 or 3 hour (I have super oily face since I graduated from high school I don't know why). My face became smoother and brighter after I applied this cream but the effects will vanish after washed off. And I don't see any improvement in my skin tone and dark spots (or acne scar spot) I had used it for around 1 month. While using this cream somehow I got pimples around my forehead and cheek. I was thinking that maybe not this cream that cause my acne but when I stopped using this product the pimples were reduced. I have read many good reviews about this product but maybe this product is just not for me. If only this cream didn't break me out I would still happily using it until now.

What I like:

-nice scent

-make my skin looks brighter

-make my skin smoother

-can cover a bit of my redness

-cheap!

What I dont't like:

-it got me pimples

-the brighter effect only temporary

-doesn't come with a spatula

Will I repurchase this product? I think no :) 

Well, have any of you tried this Garnier sakura white? I would love to know your experience with this product!

Love,

Cultusia Skin Exfoliator Review

Hai lovelies! Setelah lebih kurang 1 tahun lebih vakum dari dunia blogging akhirnya aku mutusin buat nulis blog lagi karena aku kangen banget sama nulis-nulis review dan sharing tentang apa aja T_T

Waktu itu aku pikir mau vakum bentar aja menjelang Ujian Nasional, tapi abis UN aku kerja buat ngisi waktu liburan dan selesai itu aku kuliah (sekarang udah semester 3 xD). Dan sekarang aku akan berusaha untuk mulai aktif nge-blog lagi yeaaaayyyy (kuliah itu sibuk T_T). 

Nah langsung aja ke reviewnya ya. Bagi yang hobby eksfoliasi kulit baik pake peeling gel ataupun scrub wajib coba produk ini. Peeling gel umumnya harganya agak mahal (buat mahasiswa kaya aku ugh) dan kalau scrub umumnya kasar dan bikin kulit merah-merah atau kurang oke buat ngangkat sel kulit mati (baca: daki). Akhirnya setelah cari kesana kemari produk peeling yang oke dan murah meriah aku ketemu Cultusia Skin Exfoliator. Produk ini bener-bener produk favorit aku! Fungsinya sama kaya peeling gel. Dan satu lagi, Cultusia ini produk lokal  dengan harga terjangkau loh ^^ 

Penampakannya

Warnanya putih, dan baunya aneh kalo menurutku ==' itu sendok aku yang masukin supaya gampang kalo mau ambil produknya ^^

Teksturnya agak mirip gel dan watery dengan sedikit scrub halus.

Cara pakainya cukup dengan digosok secara melingkar pelan-pelan dan, voila! Sel kulit mati a.k.a daki rontok semua tanpa bikin kulit celekit-celekit dan merah-merah. Butiran scrubnya juga ga kasar kaya scrub pada umumnya. Cara kerjanya aku bilang lebih mirip peeling daripada scrub. 

Aku ga kasih foto before after soalnya aku ga ngerasa ada perbedaan tone kulit setelah pake ini, yang terasa kulit lebih halus aja. Mungkin harus pake rutin baru efek lebih cerahnya keliatan ya. 

Overall aku puas banget sama produk ini ^^. Bisa ngerontokin daki secara efektif tanpa bikin kulit sakit2 kaya pake scrub. Harganya juga terjangkau banget, kemasan isi 1000ml harganya sekitar 120rb atau 130rb aku agak lupa, tapi karena waktu itu lagi diskon aku dapet dengan harga cuma 90.000 ^^. Cultusia ini juga ada kemasan kecilnya yang 200ml dan harganya 40.000, jauh lebih mahal daripada yang ukuran besarnya. Jenisnya juga ada macam2, aku beli yang pomegranate n milk. Belinya di mall Citraland Jakarta, aku lupa nama counternya nanti kalo aku pergi kesana lagi bakal aku cek. 

Yang aku suka:

-Murah

-Ampuh buat ngerontokin daki

-Gak sakit dan perih di kulit

-Scrubnya halus

Yang aku ga suka:

-Baunya aneh huek

Ada yang udah pernah coba produk ini? ^^ 

Love,

Melissa Y
