Cure Aqua Natural Aqua Gel Review

Hey guys,happy Thursday!
So today I'm going to review peeling (scrub) product from Japan! *drumrolls*
If you follow my post,you'll notice that now I have terribly dry skin on my cheeks,and between my brows.sometimes on my nose too since I used Etude House AC Clinic Trial (review
here and second thought here )
And it affects my look especially when I'm using makeup (BB Cream) because it tends to show up the dry patches. YUKK!
I'm looking for a peeling product but not doctors' peeling treatment!! No No No! It peels off all your skin with harsh chemical stuffs and makes your skin very sensitive and cooked red crab!
I've been eye-ing Dr.ChukChuk peeling since I saw lots of great reviews and I'm about to purchase it since it's on 1+1 promo! (body peeling+face peeling) . But.... why I ended up with this?
Okay,here's the story.
I'm in the middle of blog surfing and found a blog (thankful) that mention about this cheating (Dr.ChukChuk) product. She said that the body peeling is wonderful,and when she purchased the face peeling and about to try it,she noticed that there's fibers in the liquid and with just 1 swipe all the white thingy that we thought the dead skin appears but it's actually comes from the fibers! I was like WTH? On that moment I canceled my initiation to purchase it. And immediately search for Cure Natural Aqua Gel product when she said it's her favorite peeling product (but of course I blog surfing again for this product reviews)
There's a lot of seller but most of them are pricey,and cheap ones out of stock.Searching and waiting for months!And finally this baby arrived to my house!!
Excited to try it and up til now this is the product I've been using whenever my skin peels off and I need to put on makeup.


1. Cure Natural Aqua Gel!



















2. The back full of English descriptions. Hello English!
(even though I'm in Japanese literature major,but I'm quite a newbie and not pro enough to read these kind of descriptions /slap ) . Click the image to zoom! Many of goodness in the ingredients list. It really does as it promises to be very gentle and pure. No wonder this is a top hit!













3. Code bar










4. Comes in a pump,and there's this thing to prevent it from accidentally pressing the pump. Good job!



















5. Pluck out
6.It has semi liquid texture. Liquid to watery and runny! Transparent.
Sorry for the bad flash
7. So I put it on my hand and rub it but there's barely any dead skin so I re-apply on my wrist and rub it. Can you see those white thingy over there? I swatch this after I took a bath so I won't mistaken the dead skin is my skin's dirt LOL
















So this is kinda a quick savior on my dry day. Even though I'm too lazy to reapply again and again until my face's perfectly clean from dry patches and sometimes my skin's dried up but not yet ready to peel off (if you know what I mean). Stubborn skin!
I'm quite sensitive and my face's easily turns red when it's get in touch with harsh products,so this product doesn't cause any redness!The redness comes from my rubbing hand even though I rub it gently -_-

You can use this for body too! Even in the most sensitive area !



My mom was shocked and complaining when I told her about this amazing peeling product. She thought it's a kind of doctors' peeling. She's quite out to dated :/
Tried to explain to her but she won't understand until she curiously tried it.I asked her opinion and she said it was so-so (trying to keep those images) LOL

How to use:
1. Cleanse properly the area that you want to peel and towel dry
2. Pump some on your fingers and rub gently the area that you want to 'peel'
3. When the liquid starts to run out (dry),pump some more and rub again until there's no white thingy anythingy thingy left
4. Wash it off. You don't need to use any soap/cleanser to cleanse it.Just water. It's suggested that you use sanitized water like for drinking water to cleanse your face since the water is pure from harmful stuffs that can 'contaminate' our 'new' skin
5. Towel dry then you can continue with your skincare and makeup routine

So.here's my conclusion!

PROS
1.Natural almost like water! Say hello for sensitive skin savior!
2.Doesn't cause any redness (it's natural hey!) ,redness only comes from rubbing hand -_-
3.Can be use for body and sensitive areas!
4.Brightening (of course your skin gets brighter with new skin!)
5. The peeling power is awesome!Do mind you must use it more than one if you have a lot of dead skin. All peeling products are the same

CONS
1.Pricey
2.Hard to find it here (Indonesia)

RATINGS


4,5 out of 5stars (that heart means half LOL )

Will I repurchase?
Sure! If I don't find anything better than this.

So,have you ever tried this product?What is your favorite peeling product?

Skinfood Almond Milk Rich Foot Cream Review

Love your feet!
Well my reaction for that is : MEH.
But now I'm like OMG! I need to do something for my feet,quick!

Whoa! You might thinking what the hell is happening here XD
Okay,it's quite not too short,and not too long story why I panicked. Let's try!
I'm a freshman (university). I took Japaneses Literature major and there're a lot of clubs that will make you confuse to decide which one (you can take as many as you want but I don't have a lot of spare time,I need to rest and what I mean rest is playing my phone LOL ) . Then I picked YOSAKOI. The place where we practice is really bad. the floor is not smooth,must be careful no to steps on rocks,pointy cement,worse,.. glasses. Of course it's not clean since it's outdoor I mean on the roof. Dust everywhere! So after practicing for like 2weeks my feet starts to get rough,and some skin breaks!I don't know how to say it in English but in Bahasa it's what you called "KAPALAN" (bad at describing,sorry X_X )

I remembered I saw a product from skin food for foot treatment when I'm looking for some body creams that my friend asked me (I open online shop business) and I looked up it's Almond Milk Rich Foot Cream . It's quite pricey but I purchased it anyway.

So here it is!

Descriptions:
A creamy foot cream that contains almond extract and milk protein,and helps protect feet against dryness

How to Use:
Apply onto feet after bath or shower,or as often as desired throughout the day.For extremely dry and cracked feet,use daily before you sleep


Okay,I don't recommend to use it after bath/shower since it's:
a) Pricey and such a waste since we walk around to do activities and some of the cream might stick to the floor


b) Slippery after using it since it doesn't absorb quick

 
I usually use this every night when I already laid on my bed to sleep. Carefully move my feet to not touching things like bed cover,blanket,etc
 5.Comes sealed with silver seal .

6. Flip cap.
Sorry for the messed up cream XO . My mom tried to use it and she's really messy. I've cleaned it over and over but she always makes the mess


I haven't use it for some time because of my laziness so my mom using it almost daily and this is what happened when I open it and already tried to clean some of it (can't imagine if I take the shot without cleaning it)








 7. Quite creamy and sticky texture
 8. It has white color.

 9&10.Spread on my hand on the right side without flash and with flash.
You can see it's brighter/shinier on the right side

















Now is the swatches of my feet during the first few weeks after joining the club

If you're eating right now finish it quickly! SPAM!


1. Right bare foot with flash

YUCK!














2. Left bare foot without flash

Not really bad ..














3. Right foot after applying with flash

The dry patches aren't that visible compare to number 1















4.Left foot after applying with flash

Way much better !
















The swatches are the first time usage.
I used it daily for 1-1,5months or so and I'm satisfied!


The puffy skin starts to dry to peel and I cut it .
To remember that the cream is for moisturizing not for exfoliating so it didn't exfoliate completely (exfoliated mine for 3/4 but I guess it might exfoliate completely if I use it longer. I stopped because I get too lazy) and it makes my skin smoother.
My mom used Kanna Foot Cream but she tried mine.When I asked her is it good/not after she using it for 1week she didn't give any comment ,sometimes she answered "Nah-- so so" or "It's really bad!It makes my heels drier" but of course she's lying! If it's bad why she still use it until now? Sometimes when I'm asleep she sneaks and grab it LOL

For the scent it reminds me with melting milk chocolate/chocolate with nuts or so. I love the smell. It lasts for a very long time until you wash it clean

The texture is rich , not really sticky,and creamy. But after you applied it, it's quite sticky and it takes time to absorb

Right now my feet still had some left. Not completely heal,but for me it's fine already LOL
Sometimes I use it for some spot of dry patches on my hands/arms



CONCLUSION
PROS
1.Moisturizing
2.Helps to peel my bumpy broken skin
3.The scent!

CONS
1.PRICEY
2.Takes time to absorb
3.Sticky

RATINGS
out of 5 stars since it's pricey LOL

Will I Repurchase?
For the peeling part I have my eyes on Etude House Foot Mask,but it's pricey too and I'm still feeling okay with my feet. For moisturizing part,..well to be honest I'm to lazy to apply it but if my feet (hopefully not) get really dry and messed up and I start to run out of the product I guess I'll look for other foot cream that's cheaper than this


So have you tried this foot cream?any comments?or suggestion?
