Review - Dermalogica Gentle Cream Exfoliant

This exfoliant is actually a facial scrub, a very gentle one. I got to say, I love this product!

Unlike many other facial scrub, you actually have to clean your face first, before using this exfoliant cream. Then apply a thin layer over face and throat. As you can see from the picture (sorry, blur again..), the cream is actually very watery, it is dripping over my fingers. The cream is kind of brown-ish. something like horlick. This cream does not have strong smell, I dislike artificial fruit smell.

Leave the cream on face for 10-15 minutes. I usually feel a mild stinging effect when the cream is still wet. The cream will dry, then we can wash off the cream.

Kind of hard to believe that this is an exfoliant, because I cant really see the granules. I also doubted that it would exfoliates, since the scrub is so tiny. However, it did clean up my face, leaving it fresh. And the best thing is, the mosturizer I apply after exfoliating, seems to absorb real well into my face, as I can feel my face tighter when I wake up in the morning.

Review - Cellnique Pro Sebum Gel

This is the 3rd bottle that I bought. I have been using this gel for about 3 years. In the beginning, this gel worked very well, my face was very smooth though I have always stayed up late during my uni days. I used to apply this religiously everyday.

But, a year ago, I found my black heads have hardened. The blackheads were like sinked under my skin. It was very hard to extract the blackheads though I could see them clearly. So, I stopped using this gel.

Now, I have large pores on my face, I think this is mainly due to my constipation problem. At the moment I am still looking for a product that suit my skin. However, I still use this sebum gel, when there is a one or two big pimples pop-out on my face. I am using it as a pimple cream now.

This gel is on promotion now at Watsons. I think they are selling it at RM97 something.
