January Skin Care Empties!

Mizon Peptide Ampoule Cream

Here are my January 2023 skin care empties! 🎉

Mizon Peptide Ampoule Cream:

I finished Mizon Peptide Ampoule Cream! This cream did nothing for my skin. I’m glad I’m done with it. This cream contains ingredients, such as (to name a few) cocoa extract, sodium hyaluronate, copper tripeptide-1 (20 ppm), centella asiatica extract, beta-glucan, cranberry fruit extract. The ingredients are nice, but I didn’t see any changes in my skin. It’s just another moisturizer. I didn’t think it kept my skin that moisturized either. It’s a very lightweight cream. I used almost all of it on my neck and chest area. As mentioned in my previous review, the product irritated my eyes. I couldn’t continue to use it on my face. It contains lavender oil, which I thought was very irritating. I really don’t like products that contain lavender oil. It gives me mad migraines. This is possibly one of the worse products I have encountered and tried. I won’t ever purchase it again. Once again, it’s a waste of money. No results.

Purito Centella Green Level Eye Cream:

I finished my last tube of Purito Centella Green Level Eye Cream. I’m so happy that I’m done with it. I have no intentions in purchasing it again. I didn’t see any results while using it. I’ve gone through so many tubes of this eye cream too. The ingredients looked soooo good! It contains centella asiatica extract, shea butter, peptides, madecassic acid, and so much more! But, it didn’t do anything for fine lines and wrinkles. It didn’t feel moisturizing either. I prefer eye creams that are thick, rich, and moisturizing. The skin around my eyes become dehydrated quick. This eye cream didn’t do it for me.

Cosrx Oil-Free Ultra-Moisturizing Lotion (with Birch Sap):

I’m finally on my last bottle of Cosrx Oil-Free Ultra-Moisturizing Lotion (with Birch Sap). I finished a bottle this month. Yay! I’m not a fan of this moisturizer. It feels lightweight and lightly moisturizes the skin. It doesn’t do much for my skin. I didn’t see improvements in the texture or moisture in my skin. It smells very nice though. It smells citrus-y and contains tea tree oil in it. I’m just not impressed with this moisturizer to use it daily on my face. The bottle/packaging of this product is very annoying. Product gets stuck inside the bottle and there’s no way to get it out. Seems like a waste of product. I can’t wait to finish my last bottle. Another product that I won’t be purchasing again. I’ve been using it as a body moisturizer. It’s not doing a great job moisturizing the skin on my body either. At least it’s not breaking me out or causing any other skin issues.

Benton Fermentation Essence:

I’ve been waiting to finish Benton Fermentation Essence for ages. This essence contains beneficial skin care ingredients like galactomyces ferment filtrate, bifida ferment lysate, ceramide np, aloe barbadensis leaf extract, panthenol, sodium hyaluronate, and so many more. The product is lightweight and sinks into the skin quickly. It leaves the skin feeling soft and silky after application. I didn’t see results using it though. I’ve gone through bottles of this essence with little results. It feels like I’m applying water to my skin. When I was using it, I noticed that it had shimmering sparkles in it. Just an observation. I won’t purchase this essence again. It was nice to try it out for a while. It’s officially done. Moving on..

The Ordinary Caffeine Solution 5% + EGCG:

I still have a bunch of The Ordinary Caffeine Solution 5% + EGCG left. Another bottle of this caffeine eye solution down (more like a gel eye care product). So I didn’t use this product for the eye area. I used the rest of it on my body. I find that this eye product dries out my eye area and didn’t do anything for the skin around my eyes. I didn’t see any changes in dark circles or fine lines/wrinkles. It just didn’t do anything that I stopped using it. Also, it was very drying even with moisturizer and pilled with other skin care products. I didn’t think it was worth it. I’m still using what I have left on my body. What else to use it for? I can’t wait to finish this product. Let’s see how long it takes, lol.

iUNIK Beta-Glucan Power Moisture Serum:

I finished my last bottle of iUNIK Beta-Glucan Power Mositure Serum! Yessssssss!!! This serum never worked on my skin. It dried my skin out rather than moisturize it. I’m glad I’m done with it. Being a product that contains very few ingredients, it contains only 6 ingredients in it (Water, Butylene Glycol, 1,2-Hexanediol, Ethylhexylglycerin, Beta-Glucan, Sodium PCA), I thought it wouldn’t do my skin any harm. Nope, it made my skin feel soooo dry! I would wake up the next morning with red, dry, irritated skin. Ugh! I thought it was doing my skin some good at first. No, not at all. I’m not going to purchase it again. There’s nothing really special about this product. It didn’t work for me.

First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Cream:

I finished one of my bottles of First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Creams. It took me about almost 2 months to finish it. I didn’t hold back using this cream. I made sure I used it every night and whenever my skin was dry. After finishing my first bottle, my thoughts on this product is the same as before. It’s a creamy, thick, moisturizing cream, but I can’t use it on my facial skin. I used all of it on my body after realizing that it clogs my pores and gives me blackheads. It worked great on my legs. Left my skin feeling moisturized and protected. It absorbs fast too and doesn’t leave a sticky residue behind. It worked great on my body. It’s just not meant for my face. Would I purchase it again? It’s still a no, but I have one more tube of this cream left to try. Let’s see if it changes my mind!

Canmake Mermaid Skin Gel UV SPF 50+ PA++++:

I’m so close to finishing the rest of my Canmake Mermaid Skin Gel UV SPF 50+ PA++++ sunscreens! I have 3 left (including the new one I recently just opened!). I’m not currently using this sunscreen on my face right now. I was trying it out again on my face, but that didn’t work out. My skin dried out once again. Even when I used a mositurizer underneath, my skin didn’t like it at all. I love how it’s lightweight, absorbs quick, and doesn’t leave the skin feeling sticky and tacky. It feels like I don’t even have sunscreen on compared to the other sunscreens I use. But, from my experience using it so far, it doesn’t agree with my skin. It’s so drying and makes my skin feel terrible. It doesn’t provide good protection either. My skin tanned while using it. I reapplied consistently throughout the day too. That didn’t help with the dryness either, LOL. My skin looked so flaky and chapped. I’ll finish what I have. Most likely as a body sunscreen.

1 Year Review Purito Centella Green Level Eye Cream

Purito Centella Green Level Eye Cream

My last review on an eye cream was iUNIK Propolis Vitamin Eye Cream. Check it out if you haven’t yet! I’ve used Purito Centella Green Level Eye Cream for a very long time. It’s been about a year already. Wow, time sure goes by fast! So this eye cream contains centella asiatica extract (49%), hyaluronic acid, and peptides. The combination of these ingredients is supposed to help improve skin’s texture and elasticity. Help to moisturize and nourish the eye area. Decrease the appearance of large pores. That’s not something I have to worry about because I don’t have large pores under my eyes. But, I’m looking for something that moisturizes the eye area and keeps it soft. And hopefully it helps with skin texture, fine lines, and wrinkles too. After a year of using this eye cream, did this product work? Here are my thoughts on this eye cream! Read on!

This eye cream is a cream (what it’s called). Not a gel-cream but a true cream. It feels lightweight and moisturizing when applied to the skin. It feels gentle and soft on the skin. It’s very easy to use. It glides on the eye area smoothly and nicely with little effort. One of the eye creams I have that just blends into the under eyes so well. Leaves the skin around the eyes soft, moist, and hydrated. This is something I really like. No wonder why I’ve been using it for a year. And I’ve gone though only one tube too. So it lasts for quite some time. I mean, it’s been a year, I haven’t stopped using it, lol. I’m only on my second tube now, which I still have a lot of product left. I can’t believe I’m not done with it yet. That’s pretty awesome.

With this eye cream, I didn’t notice a reduction in fine lines or wrinkles or an improvement in my dark under eye circles, but it does make a good eye moisturizer. Honestly, even though it doesn’t do any of that, I still like it anyways. It just leaves my under eyes so freaking moisturized. It also contains ingredients, such as centella asiatica extract, hyaluronic acid, and peptides. Who knows if it’s doing anything until years later. It doesn’t hurt to keep it around. At least it doesn’t dry my skin out. Keeping the under eye area moisturized isn’t a bad thing after all. Also, this eye cream is pretty affordable. So, I like it for what it is. It’s affordable and lasts forever. It works similarly to the more expensive eye creams I’ve used. I think I’m going to keep it around.

The eye cream comes sealed like this.

This is what it looks like…

Purito Centella Green Level Eye Cream

✅ Pros

❌ Cons

This is another eye cream I’m using in my eye care routine. It doesn’t do much for fine lines and wrinkles or dark under eye circles, but it keeps my under eye area very moisturized. Perhaps that moisturization is helping with fine lines and wrinkles in years to come. So I guess it kind of helps with fine lines and wrinkles. Preventing it from looking dry and more noticeable. Still not doing much for those dark under eye circles, but that’s ok. I decided to keep using it due to how affordable it is. I’m looking forward to my future results with this eye cream. Whenever that may be, lol. Not a bad eye cream at all.
