[Review] Somethinc HYAluronic B5 Serum


Okay, this is my first ever Somethinc serum and I choose HYAluronic B5 because I need hydration for my skin. When I see the price, it's actually quite affordable. Of course, I'm gonna try this baby right away! The packaging looks simple and made of glass so it is kinda heavy. I'm so careful with this and I don't wanna accidentally drop it! I like the holder in the packaging, makes much more secure to use the pipette 💞 I am surprised with its price tag for my range, they can pull off such a decent packaging.

Ingredients:
Aqua, Allantoin, Disodium Edta, Butylene glycol, Glycerin, Hydroxyethylcellulose, Hyaluronic Acid, Panthenol, Glutathione, Vitis Vinifera Seed Extract, Phenoxyethanol.

As you can see, no fragrance! Love the minimal ingredients actually, it doesn't make my skin too dry and irritated. It contains important ingredients that help my skin more hydrated and plumped. The product doesn't give you instant glowing, but if you apply it daily at least a week (for me I use at day and night) you will see the result. If you have oily or sensitive skin, you also need hydration! Don't be afraid to use this because I don't get any reaction from it. In fact, my skin doesn't produce excess oil after using this.

I am so proud of this local product. It's affordable, simple, but gives great results. I definitely repurchase but I wanna try the other serums too (especially Niacinamide!).

Have a nice day.

Price: IDR 115.500 (20 ml)

[Review] Elsheskin Vitamin C Serum


Honestly, when I want to buy a skincare product, the first thing I will notice is the packaging whether it makes me excited to do a whole routine or not. So when I saw this serum, It kinda made me hesitated. However, I decided to keep buying it to satisfy my curiosity whether if it works or not. My first impression of this product is the pipette. It feels awkward and it is hard to absorb the product so I need to push it several times just to get the amount of serum I need. But don't worry, now they have new packaging which is more convenient in my opinion - now comes with pumps!


Ingredients:
Aqua, Ethyl Ascorbic Acid, Propylene Glycol, PEG-400, Glycerin, Sodium Citrate, Retinyl Palmitate, Methylparaben, Citric Acid, Disodium EDTA, Tocopheryl Acetate, Cyclopentasiloxane, Dimethiconol, Ethylhexyl Cocoate, Phenyl Trimethicone, Dimethicone, Lecithin, Glycolipids, Caprylyl Glycol, Sodium Methabisulfite, Carbomer, Potassium Hydroxide, Xanthan Gum.

        : potentially irritate
        : Caution

The texture is a little bit thick than usual. Its consistency doesn't feel like water, but surprisingly easy to absorb on my skin. No weird smell coming from the product so it is very pleasant for me. It supposed to keep my skin moisturized but I haven't felt it. However, it definitely makes my skin brighter. Perhaps I need to use it more than a month to get the maximum result. 

This serum is like a diamond in a rough, it's not perfect but it will give the result with daily use. I will repurchase again just to see the final result of its effect and maybe try another serum type. The thing that bothers me the most is the packaging, but now it doesn't matter as long as it works for me.

Have a nice day.
