How to apply

Use it twice a day after cleansing face.Apply on palms and gently pat onto skin until fully absorbed.

My thoughts

Texture & consistency 

For Oil-in, the texture is watery toner with light consistency. while for the Rich lotion, the texture watery, with thick consistency.

Scent

Both doesn't contain artificial fragrance but for the oil-in lotion, there's strong noticeable alcohol scent 

How I use them

 For Oil-in lotion, I used it once or twice a week as sheet mask. I soaked the compressed mask with the lotion. & use it for 10-15 minutes. 

For the Rich lotion, I will directly pat them onto my face using fingertip. Usually I will just use 2 layer, but it depends on my skin condition. & I just apply it once a day because my skin didn't love rich hydration.

Experiences

First time I tried the Oil in hydrating lotion, I apply it twice a day. I experienced bumps all over my face. I had tried it in so many times to find out the most suitable way for me to use it, & the last way, I tried to use it as sheet mask. It works so well will my skin. I didn't experience bumps and closed comodones after used it.

Then, for the rich hydrating toner, at first I tried to apply it twice too, then I experience the same negative effect like when I tried the Oil-in lotion. Then I wondering if my skin doesn't love rich hydration or what? Because I have a dry skin and I'm using the correct product like what recommended. Then, I stop used it for a week, then I bought the Light hydrating lotion. One I use in day time another one I used in night time. I alternate them according to my mood as long as I dont use Rich hydration twice. After all, all you need to do is listen to your skin.

Packaging

For oil-in: It comes in 220ml pump bottle. Not travel friendly because of the stopper, senang hilang or tercabut.

For Rich lotion: It comes in 170ml and 30ml bottle. 

Pricing

 Overall

I love both of them eventhough I had bad experience with them at first. But yes, I found out the best ways for me to apply it. It's really hydrating.

 If you dont have any ingredients that didn't suit you in the ingredient, look back on the way how you apply them. Listen to your skin.
