I got this from the Vanity Trove months ago (read the post here) but haven't used it as it was tucked away in my beauty stash. Now that the weather is all HOT HOT HOT and my face is playing tricks on me again. My T-zone gets oily fast, and my U-zone dries up even faster, it's time for some hydration stuff!

Packaging :
The box contained 3 capsules of cream in cute pink packaging. The box itself is so shiny and deflecting that even I myself had a hard time shooting it. Haha. At first I thought I will need to cut the opening of the capsule, but turns out it was conveniently designed for opening in the packaging itself. I just pressed down the top part of the capsule and "pop!", a small opening comes out! Cute, right? The flatter side of the capsule can be teared off, just like how you would open a new contact lens container. It reveals the cream which is a translucent gel-like cream.
Review :
I was surprised by the amount of minerals contained in this product! It contains seven minerals in total that boasts different functions :
Nephrite : Improve on blood circulation
Coral : Hydrating
Pearl : Anti-Ageing
Amethyst : Exfoliating
Diamond : Skin Renewal
Amber : Soothing
Ruby : Calming
As you can see, that's a lot of functions in one product! It's is in gel-like form, but upon application, it becomes watery and melts away easily. However, after application, my face looks shiny/oily. It was somewhat sticky, and still remain so after having it overnight. To be honest, the stickiness was a little bit annoying. Even so, my skin felt smooth and appeared matte after washing it off the next day. It didn't cause any breakouts throughout all three times of using it. I didn't feel any calming effect though, maybe because I kept getting bothered with the stickiness. Since I've only used it several times, I can't really comment about the other effects like anti-ageing, skin renewal, blood circulation improvement etc.
My Verdict :
Pros :
- Leaves face moisturized and smooth
- Face becomes matte after washing off
- Sticky after application
- Skin looks super shiny/oily
- Contain lots of paraben
