Essential Power Rich Cream
This rich, smooth cream contains niacinimide, ginseng, panthenel, and their patented sake/ferment mixture to balance, moisturize, and rejuvenate skin.
I got this as a sample, and was excited to try it because there is so much hype about their proprietary sake ingredient. When I opened the jar and got my first whiff I had no doubts there was a high percentage of sake in there because it definitely smelled like the bottle I have in my cupboard! Once applied the smell does fade and isn't bothersome. It's a really smooth cream consistency, and takes a bit of working into the skin but spreads very easily. It felt much lighter than I expected considering it's called a "rich" cream, which was a pleasant surprise. I had no issues with acne or anything while using this product.
Cost: $200- 260 USD per 1.7oz
I rated this one pretty low for being a product that works well, but it's because I had quite a few problems that severely disappointed me considering the RIDICULOUSLY high price.
First, I actually found it doesn't keep skin moisturized for long unless you lather it on, which is hard to do because...
It pills with EVERYTHING. I tried eliminating different products every day to try to figure out what it was reacting with and it always pulled no matter how thinly I spread it. I think it is reacting most to acids and sunscreens, so I suspect the titanium dioxide or alcohols in it. If you only wash your face and apply this, it's fine, but doesn't moisturize super well.
Have I mentioned the price yet, for a product that pills and leaves even my oily skin dry in a couple hours? Well over $100 I will never end up purchasing this.
It has an interesting ingredient list, so I had high hopes for it, and it's very possible others will have a better experience than me, but it is definitely not making my favorites list.
