PACKAGING

Comes in a glass jar that has a pentagon shape with protective black lid and yellow sticker label but without spatula. I love simple packaging but beautiful and luxurious even though I’m more prefer a tube design & easy for travel . The packaging is not travel-friendly for me.

TEXTURE & SCENT

The texture is a silky and glossy white cream. Giving my skin enough nourishing and moisturizing without feeling greasy, heavy or tacky. The scent is very mild because of the fragrance added but it fades away so it does not bother me.

MY THOUGHT

This is my first I’m From product I’ve ever tried in my skincare journey. Thank you so much Wishtrend Team for sending me this awesome cream in exchange for an honest review. My first impression for this cream is incredible! My skin’s deeply hydrated without leaving any oiliness or heavy feeling at all.

I have combination skin and more to oily. Even though the texture is quite creamy, there is no stickiness on my skin after using it as long as I apply a very thin layer to my face. I love the rich, creamy and the scent of the product. The packaging also very luxurious! The best part is there was no irritating, redness or itching at all.

I like the ingredients of this cream such as Niacinamide (brightening & soothing), Ascorbic Acid (anti aging & brightening), Centella Asiatica (soothing), Bee Venom, Turmeric & Cinnamon extract because it really works well on my skin. The formula is on point, awesome and is very unique for me!

I’m using this cream for my PM routine because for AM routine I’m more prefer using face milk from Fourth Ray or gel cream. After using this cream for more than 2 months, I noticed my skin looks healthy and my acne scar is slowly fading away. I will keep using it patiently and highly recommend for everyone since this would be great for all skin types and ideal for dry to combination skin and for oily skin.

5 REASON WHY YOUR SKIN LOOKS DULL(KUSAM) & HOW TO FIX IT?

Skincare Tips, Uncategorized

What is Dull Skin? Dull skin is exactly what it sounds like: skin that has lost some of its color and brightness. If your skin just seems a bit lackluster, you’re probably dealing with a case of dull skin. When your skin cells are healthy and vibrant, the light bounces off your face like a mirror, making your skin appear bright. However, if your skin isn’t healthy, less light will bounce off your skin cells. This may result in pale, dull skin.

5 REASONS:-

1.DEAD SKIN CELLS

Exfoliate your skin two to three times per week. “Scrubs with sugar or jojoba esters are mild enough for even sensitive skin, and grainy scrubs with pulverized nut shells are good for everyone else,” says Joshua Zeichner, director of cosmetic and clinical research in dermatology at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York City. Other option, you can use any alpha (AHA) and beta hydroxy acids (BHA) to remove dead skin cells.

2. YOU’RE DEHYDRATED

Without moisture, your skin looks dull. Dehydration may seem like a short-term problem solved by a glass of water, but board-certified dermatologist Dr. Janet Prystowsky encourages viewing skin dehydration as a long-term problem. Consistently failing to give your skin the hydration it needs can cause lasting damage, like fine lines, sagging skin, and even scales and deep wrinkles from severe chronic dehydration. When your skin cells lack the moisture they need to remain healthy, there’s a good chance your skin will appear dull.

3. ENVIRONMENT

Your environment could be dulling down your skin with air pollutants, low humidity, harsh winds, and UV exposure, which can wreak havoc on unprotected skin. Polluted air contains a host of tiny particles, like dirt and sulfur dioxide, that create free radicals on skin. Free radicals damage collagen and stimulate pigment production over time and when your skin’s tone and texture are uneven, it diffuses light and looks dull.

4. SUN DAMAGE

The sun’s UV rays damage your skin cells and can even lead to serious illnesses like melanoma. Damage from UV rays can also make your skin appear worn out and dull. Sun damage is also a main cause of weakened collagen and the slack, dull skin that comes with it.

Wear Sunscreen!!! No treatment will be effective as long as your skin is still exposed. Then add in a serum or a cream with a brightening ingredient, like kojic acid or arbutin to fade dark spots.

5. LIFESTYLE

Smoking cigarettes and using other tobacco products. Eating too many unhealthy foods. Sleeping less than six hours per night. Getting too little exercise. Drinking alcohol to excess. Not drinking enough water.

All of these choices can lead to unhealthy, dull skin. If you want to achieve smooth, radiant skin, you’ll need to adopt a holistic approach to improving your body’s health. To fight dull skin, start living a healthier lifestyle now!

7 SIMPLE TIPS TO FIX IT

1.EXFOLIATE!!

Exfoliate once or twice per week if you have normal skin or two to three times per week if you have oily skin. For beginner, highly recommended for using any gentle face scrubs. If your basic skincare routine strong enough, you can use any alpha (AHA) and beta hydroxy acids (BHA).

2. PICK YOUR SKINCARE CAREFULLY!!

Always listen to your skin. To brighten dull skin, use products with vitamin C, peptides, niacinamide, and alpha hydroxy acids like glycolic acid. Avoid products with alcohols, parabens, phthalates, and sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS).

3. MOISTURIZE YOUR SKIN OFTEN

If you have dull skin, it’s even more essential to moisturize frequently! Apply moisturizer at least twice per day, once in the morning and then again in the evening. Put a little extra any sleeping mask before you sleep, that’s even better!

4. USE BRIGHTENING SERUM

Serums are a great way to provide your skin cells with loads of vitamins and other beneficial ingredients, which helps to liven up dull skin.

5. WEAR SUNSCREEN!!

Sunscreen is a must! Using two fingers rule and reapply every two to three hours.

6. REST UP

Get enough sleep. Try to get at least six hours of sleep per night. Seven to eight hours is ideal. If you’re feeling stressed out, make time for relaxing activities. Whether it’s yoga, reading a book, or soaking in a hot bath, give yourself some personal time to unwind. Staying relaxed and well-rested will help to prevent dull skin and give you a healthy, radiant appearance.

7. EAT HEALTHY FOODS

If your diet contains lots of junk food, fast food, and sugary drinks like soda, then your eating habits might be contributing to dull skin.

Try to eat as many fruits and veggies as possible. Instead of red meat, include healthy fats like nuts, beans, avocado, and salmon in your diet. Finally, make sure to drink plenty of water.

MY THOUGHT:-

I used this cleanser for twice or three times a week because it quite harsh for my skin and personally I don’t this cleanser can be use as a daily cleanser since it’s an exfoliating cleanser. But I liked how this cleanser worked on my skin and it was effective especially for my acne-scar. I’m using this cleanser with brightening serum from ‘BELLFLOWER’, and I can see a huge different for my scar and skin tone. Serious tau!hehehe. A little exfoliating beads make me fell refreshing, brightening, purifying and my skin feeling soft. It does not irritate my skin except when I use everyday and over-cleanse.

Repurchase? I don’t think so because I want to try another cleanser as well. hehehe. And it quite pricey for cleanser.
