Product Review: Ishigaki Amino Premium White Glutathione (New Packaging, Label and Barcode)

Wednesday, March 11, 2020

     When a reader who has been using oral glutathione for several months or even years asks me what brand gives a pinkish-white result, without a second thought, my answer is Ishigaki Amino Premium White. This brand has been in the market for 10 years now and the formulation of this once-a-day dose for pinkish white skin tops most of the competitors because of its affordable price and effectiveness.

     Cheska's Store, the trusted online store since time immemorial sent Ishigaki Amino Premium White Glutathione with the new packaging, label, and barcode for me to try and share my thoughts. After using it for one month, I'm still going to recommend this variant to those who like healthy pinkish-white rather than pale white skin. Scroll down to see full details of my review :)

    And the consistent effective glutathione brand in the Philippine market award goes to... Ishigaki! Hooray! Yes, this brand that was first introduced 10 years ago is still one of the most affordable and effective brands to date. My first review of Ishigaki Glutathione Whitening Supplement was 2015 and for a span of five years, I have seen how the brand improved its packaging and formulation one after the other. This brand is also a favorite amongst beauty bloggers in the Philippines and Pinay Youtubers are well.

     Ishigaki Glutathione is has been FDA approved since 2017 that's why aside from the certification from FDA, the variants have been repackaged, reformulated, and received a GMP seal. I presume that with all these changes, Ishigaki fans have this burning question if it has the same whitening and glowing effect after finishing one bottle. Will the new variant give the same creamy or almost translucent complexion and faster results in as early as 2 weeks? Cheska's Online Store, the trusted online shop of all things beauty sent me a bottle to try and hopefully answer that question. So here are my thoughts after taking Ishigaki Amino Classic White religiously for a month.

Product Review: Ishigaki Amino Premium White Formerly Ishigaki Premium Plus Glutathione

Tuesday, December 19, 2017

     As I've said in my latest Ishigaki Glutathione post, this brand is now FDA Approved. Aside from the certification from FDA, Amino Premium white has been repackaged, reformulated, and there's a seal that says "authentic".

     I received a lot of queries on my review of the previous Ishigaki Premium White Plus if the new Ishigaki Amino Premium White has the same pinkish white effect after finishing one bottle. I've tested the product for a month and now ready to muse my experience. Full review details below.

    Hi dearies! I'm sure that you've heard the news that Ishigaki Glutathione is now FDA Approved. Aside from the certification from FDA, the variants have been repackaged, reformulated, and there's a seal that says "authentic".

     I received a lot of queries on my review of the previous Ishigaki Advanced Ultra White if the new Ishigaki Amino Classic White has the same whitening and glowing effect after finishing one bottle. Will the new variant give the same creamy or almost translucent complexion and faster results in as early as 2 weeks?

Ishigaki Glutathione Now FDA Approved

Monday, April 24, 2017

     Hello dearies! I will not make a long introduction for this blog post. I'm sure that one or two readers here are currently taking Ishigaki Glutathione. This brand is the cheapest in the market and in my observation, one of the most effective in giving pinkish white or translucent skin. 

     For your information, makers of Ishigaki Glutathione made changes in their packaging, labeling, and now it's FDA approved, registered as amino acid blend. Glutathione (GSH) is often referred to as the body's master antioxidant. Compost of three amino acids - cysteine, glycine, and glutamate. You may also find a short description of both variants and know their difference. Read more details after the jump:)

Product Review: Ishigaki Premium White Soap

Tuesday, January 17, 2017

     For me, the most basic whitening skin care product is whitening soap. I've tried so many whitening soaps in the past and around 70% of them are effective in making my skin soft, smooth, and glowing. The whitening or lightening effect comes last since I'm already fair to begin with.

     Today, let me share with you another soap that will help achieve those whitening goals- Ishigaki Premium White Soap. This whitening soap is from the makers of the infamous Ishigaki Premium Glutathione, Ishigaki Advanced White Glutathione, and Ishigaki Coffee. I presume that if you're a long time user of Ishigaki, you have tried this already or you're using it right now to complement your whitening skin care products. Cheskas Online Store sent me two bars of Ishigaki Premium White Soap and after finishing my bar I'm now ready to share my thoughts. More details of this promising soap below :)

Product Review: Ishigaki Glutathione Coffee

Monday, January 09, 2017

     Yes, you've read that right :) The favorite glutathione brand now comes in delicious coffee. I received two boxes of Ishigaki Glutathione Coffee last December and as a self-confessed coffee lover, I immediately opened the box when it reached our doorsteps.

     Coffee lovers can now enjoy the benefits of skin whitening, anti-aging, and detoxification by drinking this product. I was skeptical for a few seconds before I empty my first sachet in a cup of hot water because I have no idea if this really tastes like coffee despite the added ingredients. To my surprise, I totally enjoyed my first cup of Ishigaki Glutathione Coffee. More details about the product and my thoughts after consuming 2 boxes (20 sachets) below :)

Product Review: Ishigaki Advanced White Glutathione

Thursday, February 11, 2016

     Hi dearies! Here's another review of whitening supplement that I will recommend if you have a tight budget and wants a creamy or almost a translucent complexion. Before I start, let me tell you that I'm already fair to begin with but my skin tone is uneven because I always fetch my son at school in the morning. I'm outside the house from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon and during those times, the sun is really high. It's really hot as I can feel the humid air touching my skin.

     Anyhoo, I received a bottle of Ishigaki Advanced White Glutathione from Cheska's Online Store last December and I've decided to give it a shot. I'm already familiar with the brand even before I started blogging. I've visited different online forums and most of the members liked this variant of Ishigaki. They say that this one is really effective because it has ALA (Alpha Lipoic Acid), known as a potent glutathione booster but some individuals have allergic reactions to it. Read full review of Ishigaki Advanced White Glutathione below :)

Product Review: Ishigaki Advanced White Glutathione
This photo was taken last February 6 around 12 noon inside the car at Mahogany market in Tagaytay. The weather was gloomy that day, there's a hint of sunlight but it's also raining. 

What I like:
  • The price- the cheapest glutathione brand in the market today.
  • The bottle is bigger than Ishigaki Premium Plus. It is tightly sealed once you purchase a bottle so no need to worry about contamination. There's a plastic seal outside the bottle cap and another seal inside on the top of the bottle
  • Stinky rotten egg odor is present once you open the bottle. An indication that it is authentic and this is according to Ishigaki users who have purchased a fake one which I've read in an online forum.
  • Ishigaki Advanced White Glutathione also contains ALA (Alpha Lipoic Acid), L-cysteine, and N-Acetyl-Cysteine known as potent boosters to speed up the whitening process of the skin.
  • No allergic reactions especially to ALA (Alpha Lipoic Acid), vomiting, headache, nausea, breakouts, or whatsoever.
  • It made my skin glowing the next day even if I only have 4 hours of sleep every night.
  • No appearance of cystic acne last menstrual period.
  • There's a slight change in the color of my freckles but not that drastic.
  • After finishing 1 bottle, I can attest that marks from unwanted scratch have lightened a bit.
  • It made my skin tone even. I took this last January 9 until February 9 and I noticed that my feet retain the color even if I wear flip flops while walking under the sun. 
  • I'm already fair, to begin with but it gives a creamy and almost translucent white color of my skin. I can't say that I'm a shade lighter now because I still use the same shade of foundation. 
  • Batch, manufacturing and expiry date printed on the package. There's also the TDC initials embossed at the bottom of the bottle packaging and this is one proof that the product is authentic.

What I don't like:
  • Not easily accessible, you have to purchase it online.
  • No assurance if this product is BFAD approved.
  • There are individuals who are allergic to ALA (Alpha Lipoic Acid).

Will I purchase? It's in the realm of possibility.

Recommendation:
     I give this a 4.75/5 rating as of the moment as there is no assurance that it is BFAD approved. I would give a 5/5 rating if not for that. My rating depends on the price and overall experience too. In my opinion, the brand Ishigaki is one of the cheapest brands of glutathione in the market today. As like what I've said in my previous review of Ishigaki Premium Glutathione, the results vary from person to person. There are individuals who react faster to supplements and give them positive results. Again, if you have morena skin tone kindly expect three or more months before you see a drastic result.

     There is also what they call a plateau like with topical products that your body becomes immune to it and it's not as effective as before. Glutathione supplement serves as an antioxidant in the liver. It cleanses the body from the toxins accumulated from pollution and chemicals so if you smoke, drink, and always stay late at night this supplement will first cleanse the toxins inside the body that's why sometimes the whitening effect is slower than those who have low-stress levels and toxins in their body.

Have you tried taking Ishigaki glutathione as a daily supplement? Hope you can share your experience :)

Product Review: Ishigaki Premium Plus Glutathione

Wednesday, August 05, 2015

     Hi, dearies! This is a very long overdue review. I received 2 bottles of Ishigaki Premium Plus Glutathione from Cheska's Online Store last May. I'm already familiar with the brand even before I started blogging. I haven't tried it because I was pregnant that time and I don't care about whitening supplements. If my memory serves me right, ladies were discreet when it comes to taking whitening supplements here in our country 7 years ago. But when popular celebrities became endorsers of glutathione supplements, the demand for whitening products surge.

     I'm also a lurker in different beauty forums before that's why I've read real experiences from users of this brand. I've seen more of positive results than negative ones. Almost 70-80% of women who were active in the discussion highly recommend this brand. Since I haven't tried this brand before, I'm not sure what are the differences of the old from the new formulation. This review is solely based on my personal experience. I've finished two bottles after six weeks. There were times I take one capsule and there were times I take two. To know more about my experience, scroll down dearies!

Product Review: Ishigaki Premium Plus Glutathione
A not so recent photo, this was taken in an event. You can see in the background that I'm basking under the sun. 

What I like:
  • The price- the cheapest glutathione brand in the market today.
  • The bottle packaging is handy. It is tightly sealed once you purchase a bottle so no need to worry about contamination.
  • There's a stinky rotten egg odour once you open the bottle- it only means that it's authentic. I've read in some forums that authentic glutathione should smell like rotten egg. 
  • This glutathione also contains L-cysteine and N-Acetyl-Cysteine known as potent boosters to speed up the whitening process of the skin.
  • I didn't experience any discomforts like vomiting, headache, nausea, breakouts, or whatsoever.
  • It made my skin glowing even if I always stay up late at night or if I only have 4 hours of sleep.
  • It lessened cystic pimples popping around my chin which I experience every month.
  • The color of my freckles lightened a bit while I'm taking this capsule.
  • After finishing 2 bottles, light scars from insect bites are not that visible.
  • It maintained my skin tone even. I took this last May 27 until June 30 and during those days, I'm always out in the sun. I attend events in the afternoon and there are times that I forgot to bring my umbrella.
  • I'm already fair to begin with but it made my skin not pale or yellow white but more of a pinkish/rosy white tone.
  • Batch, manufacturing and expiry date printed on the package.

What I don't like:
  • Not easily accessible, you have to purchase it online.
  • No assurance if this product is BFAD approved.

Will I purchase? It's in the realm of possibility.

Recommendation:
     I give this a 4.75/5 rating. One of the cheapest brands IMO. If you have a morena skin tone, it is best to use this brand for more than 3 months. The effectiveness of one product really varies from person to person. This supplement is also meant to treat blood disorders and serves as an antioxidant in the liver. So if you smoke, drink, and always stay late at night this supplement will also help cleanse the toxins from those I mentioned above in your body. Just leave a comment below if you questions and I will try my best to answer them. 

Have you tried taking glutathione as a daily supplement? Hope you can share your experience :)
