[Review] Nature Republic The Secret of Moisture Snail Special Set

This is a new Snail Line that came into Nature Republic recently~
This is suppose to have less Snail Mucus, but they added different ingredients to sub for it (which I will mention later), and no active ingredients (Like Niacinamide, which is used for brightening). So it's suppose to be more on the moisturizing side, helps with acne, and extremely mild so it's good for ages 13 and up!

Packaging
The set comes in this box that has the cutest packaging with snails on it.
The back has all the product information as well.
The toner uses grapefruit extract to help soften and soothe the skin texture
Emulsion has olive oil extract to moisturize, and nourish the skin
Cream has Shea butter to give the skin a radiant glow

The set comes with a mini foam cleanser, toner, emulsion, and cream.
Product
I didn't include the foam cleanser because it's pretty similar to Jessica's review, expect the texture is lighter.

The toner is thick, and just like all the snail lines it has that gooey texture. When you apply it to the face it doesn't feel heavy at all, just like any other liquid toner.
The emulsion feels quite heavy when you touch it with your hands, but once applied to the face it absorbs really well.
The cream in my opinion is more of a night cream. When I tried to use it during the day as well, it was pretty overwhelming for my skin. So I like to let it absorb over night. The application as you see was very messy.

Price
N/A for the set at the moment(I'll edit it when the price comes out).
The individuals are sold for $20.90 in Hawaii.

Size
Toner 150ml
Emulsion 150m
Cream 75ml
Foam Cleanser 30ml

Pros
       - Makes skin feel really smooth, and soft
       - It includes all the basic things you need for skincare
       - Since it's mild(good for sensitive skin) even 13+ people can use it
Cons
       - Hard to dispense products
       - Doesn't come with spatula for cream

Recommendations?
- If you're oily skin, you don't have to use the cream unless you're okay with letting it absorb overnight
- This line is different than the Snail Solution line(Helps anti-aging), this one is more for moisture, and it also helps with break outs

Overall, repurchase?
As of now no, because I'm still using my tea tree emulsion. Maybe in the future, I liked the results it gave me with my skin texture though.

Good luck and have fun lovelys

[Review] Nature Republic Snail Solution Foam Cleanser

SNAIL!!!! Yes, this is the infamous snail mucus face wash that leaves the skin feeling well moisturized!


I'm not sure how many of you guys out there are fans of this face wash but for me, this is the world's greatest face wash! At least for the time being. For someone who has dry skin or more of a dry/combo skin, this face wash is amazing. It leaves the skin feeling soft and supple - not drying at all. Usually when something cleans very well, it means that it is more drying because it would strip the skin of the natural oils, but this face wash doesn't do that. This product has a very nice moisturizing effect. As a part of the advertisement, it says the face wash is supposed to revitalize the skin. Apart from my skin feeling moisturized, I do feel the revitalizing effect.
As you can see from the picture above, the face wash is very creamy. The texture is almost a little bit slimey. I think Nature Republic did that on purpose because the face wash contains filtered snail mucus (slime). Yet when mixed with water, it becomes super light and bubbly.


Although you can't see the revitalizing results immediately, the skin does feel soft and supple. All in all, it leaves the skin feeling amazing!

Cost: I believe it was $16.90 before tax
Pros: great for dry skin, smells creamy, perfect for winter or dry areas 
Con: not so good for oily skin, if you don't like the idea of snail secretion on your skin 


Thanks for tuning in and see you next time my pretties!

[Review] The Face Shop White Tree Snow Foam Cleanser

Recently, I went to TheFaceshop and bought the White Tree Snow Foam Cleanser. I've gotten a sample of this product before and loved it. I was quite lucky to be the owner of one of these cleanser because it sells out very quickly.

First off, this cleanser contains a scrub inside. There are little micro bead to help exfoliate my skin. The consistency is still creamy even with the micro beads. The scrub inside feels a little bit gritty on the skin. Overall, the White Tree Snow Foam Cleanser smells very nice; I just don't know how to describe the smell. When I mixed the cleanser with water to clean my face, the texture becomes super light and froffy.  

White Tree Snow Foam Cleanser on my hand; I don't know if you can see the scrub particles
I totally forgot the price of this product; I just know it was somewhere between $14-16. Personally, I think this is a pretty good value for a face wash especially because I really enjoy this product. This is one of my favorite cleansers of all time because of the scrub inside. It's something unique since most of my cleansers are just creamy and doesn't have too much texture. This foam cleanser is supposed to brighten the skin, but I can't really tell if it's working. I feel that my skin is pretty fair, so brightening is not a big deal for me. And honestly, I enjoy the White Tree Snow Foam Cleanser for it's ability to cleanse. I like how the foam cleanser cleans very well and leaves the skin feeling refreshed. So far, the White Tree Snow hasn't dry my skin out - which might I add, is just great!


Hope you guys enjoyed this review my pretties! Till next time!
