Happy Sunday to all despite the gloomy weather outside. Hope everyone is safe so stay indoors and relax while reading your favorite blogs :) Anyhoo, here's a review of another promising skin care product that I've been using for three weeks now. If you're the type who likes to see fast results then read the whole review so that you'll understand why I'm starting to like it even though I enumerated three negative things about this so called hand and body cream. Yes, it's a cream form of lotion. I presume what you have in mind now is the cons of using this product. In my honest opinion, cream based lotion is a no no especially in our humid weather, right? But there's another way where you can still use this type of lotion and see results immediately.
Have you heard of COSMO Skin? If not, click HERE and HERE so that you'll have the idea of what this brand has to offer. I've known this brand some four years ago and tried their soap more than once. If I've been blogging during that time, it's a sure thing that I'll be raving it over and over again. I've also tried their Grape Seed Extract supplement and I can say that it's a better alternative to Vitamin C because it has more anti-oxidant properties than Vitamin C alone.
So lets go back to star of this review! At first I have a love-hate relationship with the product but after a week it's all L-O-V-E! Now I'm telling you to click CONTINUE and enjoy reading!

What I like:
- Affordable.

- Made my skin soft and smooth to touch after use.

- A little goes a long way.
- Hypoallergenic and Dermatologist tested.
- Batch, manufacturing and expiry date printed on the bottle.
What I don't like:
- Doesn't have spf.
- Since it has thick consistency, it takes time to be absorbed by the skin.
- If used during daytime, I find it sticky and heavy on my skin.
Will I repurchase? Yes!
Recommendation:
I give this lotion a 4.75/5 rating. This is my first time using hand and body cream all over my body. I was losing hope during my first three days of using the product because I find it heavy on the skin and the thick consistency gave me a hard time spreading the cream on my legs and arms. But after a week of using the product, I decided to use it every night and lather the cream right after taking a bath. I find this ritual more effective and effortless. If applied during day time, I find the product sticky and heavy on skin. BUT nonetheless, it's VERY EFFECTIVE!

ReplyDeleteSiguro nga pang night time lang ito because of the thickness and lack of spf. Happy to know that it worked on you.

ReplyDeleteHaven't tried this one yet but I bet it's good. I just don't want its thick consistency. but will try this next time! :)
ReplyDeleteWould love to try this one. Pero pang gabi lang sya for me cause super pawisin ako. :p
ReplyDeleteXO, Mish @ LBD and Onesies
sounds promising but probably not for me, i use sunblock pa kasi so this would be too much/too heavy on my face na :(
ReplyDeletei guess i like to use this lotion, tignan ko if effective din sa skin type ko :D
ReplyDelete@Czjai Reyes-Ocampo- yup, kaya ganda ng benefit sa skin :) check it out sis ha.
ReplyDelete@itsmefati- that's the only downside but you can make it work pa din.
@Mish R.- hello, yup try this and yes mas advisable sa gabi.
@Angel Feliciano- yup dear, mas magiging heavy syo to.
@Leilani Gamboa- try one na and let me know.
Ooooh. An affordable whitening product :)
ReplyDelete@Sheela Marie Castillo- affordable and effective dear ^^
ReplyDeleteThanks for the review! I was actually thinking of buying one, but after reading that it has a thick consistency it actually discouraged me because I've had bad experiences using thick creams
ReplyDeleteYour review was indeed very helpful. I didn't know that Cosmo has already come up with a body cream. I hope it works on me as it did for you. Just purchased a bottle of this today and I will only apply it at night as you said that it is very thick and hard to spread...
ReplyDeleteThanks!
