Water Volume Aqua Gel Cream
Today I woke up feeling like I need to glow, but in the most light, soothing way possible. I thought to myself, why not try some of the samples I have beem collecting through the time?
-First impressions:
When you read the words water/aqua, gel, volume, you can only think of a wonderful lightweight hydrating cream that will turnk your skin back to life. Especially when the package says "92% snail extract".
-Looking at the ingredients we have some wonderful stuff:
We have niacinamide, watermelon and licoric extracts, polyglutamic acid, sodiym hyaluronate, a bunch of antioxidants. The ingredient list is seemingly perfect.
Until you notice the third ingredient is alcohol!!
So, let's break it down:
-Is it cooling and soothing?
The "cooling" sensation they promise is just a bunch of alcohol evaporating off of the surface of your skin and if you are using retinoids and chemical exfoliators like I do, prepare yourself for a good minute of stinging.
-How does it look? Is it hydrating?
Zero glow, the only thing that is left is a weird sticky feeling that ends up looking totally matte. Don't get me wrong, it's not like you don't feel any hydration, the skin gets slightly softer, but it just looks and feels so bad and uncomfortable, it really isn't this snail, rich hydration that the product promises
-Who is this good for?
I guess if you are extremely oily, and not sensitive to alcohol and fragrance and you prefer looking matte this could be for you.
