Green Tea Fresh Serum

product review positives
Isntree is a brand most will probably be familiar with - one of the most prominent K-Beauty brands in the realm of vegan and cruelty-free cosmetics. Their Green Tea Fresh line is specifically marketed towards Oily-Combination skin with a host of ingredients promising to moisturize, hydrate and soothe oily-combo skin. The serum of this line, the Green Tea Fresh Serum, features a patented ingredient called Anti-Sebum P(tm) and EGCG to help control oil production. 🌿 Notable Ingredients*: • Camelia Sinensis Leaf Extract • Niacinamide • Squalane • Epigallocachetin Gallate • Adenosine • Glycerin *Ingredients taken from en.isntree.com 💅 Skin profile: Combination skin with oily T-Zone and drier U-Zone, semi-humid temperate climate (Central Europe), 3x Retinal usage per week. 📦 Packaging: This serum comes in a hefty brown glass bottle with a dropper and an easily removable, leaf-shaped brown sticker with the product name and brand label for easy recycling. The dropper is made of hard plastic with a round bulb tip to dispense the product. With 50ml of serum, it retails for $31.30 on Isntree's english website - I got mine from Jolse.com at a discount price. 🫙 Texture and Scent: Upon opening the bottle, I was greeted with a pleasant green tea scent and a surprisingly brown-coloured liquid. The liquid itself is very viscuous and has a nice, velvety texture and feel on my skin when applied and rubbed in, which then gives way to a nice hydrating feeling. It's fairly sticky and slightly tacky after immediate application and dried down slightly tacky with a slight bit of shine. I've been regularly using this serum both day and night for little more than a month. ✅️ Pros: • Hydrating, pleasant feeling on the skin without feeling greasy or too wet - I can feel my skin drinking this up very quickly! • A light green tea scent that I enjoy without being too overpowering on the nose • Decent sebum control - for the most part I do notice less oiliness in my T-Zone when applying this to my whole face in the morning, even after a few hours. At night, it hydrates my drier U-Zone (I use a different serum for my T-Zone at night).
product review negatives
❌️ Cons: • I'm not a fan of the glass packaging, which is a bit unwieldy and not very travel-friendly. Using glass seems like a one-ticket stop to broken shards on your floor and heartbreak if you ever drop this. • The finish was slightly tacky, but I can forgive this since you're not (usually) meant to finish your skincare on just serum. • ~31 USD is pretty pricey. I'd get this on discount to save! 👩‍⚖️ Verdict: This is my first Isntree product and I quite like it! It feels hydrating, pleasant, and does a good job at regulating excessive oiliness on the parts of my skin with lots of sebum, while hydrating the drier areas of it. While I'm not super crazy about the "Clean Beauty" marketing and the EWG rating nonsense, this is a product that I do think works as advertised and feels nice on my skin. I'll be looking at and testing other serums in the mean time, but if you're a combo-oily gal like me looking for something to degrease without drying you out, I'd give Isntree's Green Tea Fresh Serum a look. Just keep in mind the initial asking price and see if you can't get it on discount somewhere.
