REBLOGGED: Beauty Talks' Review about Skin Food Gold Kiwi Gift Set

Beauty Talks: Review about Skin Food Gold Kiwi Gift Set:        




"Below is the full size version of Skin Food Gold Kiwi Line, I borrowed the advertisement pic from the web, Skin Food Korean Web I supposed :"


"The gift set comes with 4 products : toner, serum, emulsion and cream.  This set can last for about 2-3 weeks, the serum is the first bottle that ran out, followed by the cream in small jar. Those are in small cute packages which I like : ) even the mini serum has pump too. Now I will give my review one by one."
--------------------------------------------------

"1. Skin Food Gold Kiwi Toner
It’s a medium scented toner I guess. The scent is rather fruity sweet I guess but not too much fruity, think it’s gold kiwi smell. It’s not disturbing me although I prefer non perfumed skin care (if available). The toner has a mild formula and moist type. It hydrates my skin, but for my oily skin it’s kinda bit too moist plus it takes more time to absorb than other skinfood toner that I used (for example peach sake toner).

2. Skin Food Gold Kiwi Serum
Texture : white semi transparent lotion, it’s moist and easily absorb to my skin, has medium consistency (not lightweight but not too thick either)
I like this serum, I feel that it helps to soften my skin. A little amount enough for entire face. I used it carefully not to put too much cause this serum is moist type of serum. It’ll be greasy if I put it too much.

3. Skin Food Gold Kiwi Emulsion
Texture : white lotion, little thick consistensy, rich in moisture, medium smell (the same smell as the toner), sticky, greasy.
This emulsion has thicker consistency than the parsley mandarin emulsion that I used before, it also take longer to absorb into my skin than the parsley usually does.  Think it can’t absorb completely and leave sticky, greasy feeling on my skin. When my hair accidentally touch my face, the hair will stick on skin because of this emulsion. I also feel it too moist for my oily-combi skin although it hydrates the dry part of my face.
However, I will not recommend this emulsion to those who have oily and acne prone skin since it’s way too rich, sticky and greasy. Think it will work well to those who has dry-normal skin. After a week of usage, I gave it to my mom who is having dry skin, she said that it’s also sticky on her skin n she did not like that although it helped to hydrate her skin.

4. Skin Food Gold Kiwi Cream
                It’s a rich cream, richer than the emulsion but less sticky in my opinion. Actually I like this cream coz it feels nice on my skin, refreshing, hydrating but not too sticky as the emulsion. This is great for hydrating the rough part of my face. The cream has more pleasant effect on my skin than the emulsion, may be because the texture and the ingredients, I’m bit unsure why."
---------------------------------------------

"The skin food web says that the order is : toner -- > serum -- > emulsion -- > cream"

"Well, let me sum it all :
Pros :
- Affordable price if we buy via ol shop, can goes for quite long way if we use just the right amount of it
- Has a medium pleasant sweet smell (kiwi’s smell I guessed)
- I like the serum and cream, those are great for night treatment
- help to brighten my skin, always wake up with a brightened skin whenever I use it at night.
- Great for hydrating and moisturizing

Cons :
- The emulsion is sticky, greasy and take long to completely absorb into my skin
- Way too moist for my oily-combi skin

Will I repurchase ? Maybe, for the serum and cream but not the emulsion and toner."
