Sulwhasoo Essential Firming Cream

Essential Firming Cream
75mL, $74 USD

Most creams are 50-60mL, but this one is 75mL!! 

This is my favourite cream, not only in the Sulwhasoo line, but overall out of all the creams I've tried, this is my favourite one!

Ingredients include many Korean herbal plant extracts.

The Essential Firming Cream would be the 6th step in the Sulwhasoo process:


Steps: 
Morning: Sulwhasoo Gentle Cleansing Oil --> Gentle Cleansing Foam --> First Care Activating Serum --> Essential Balancing Water / Snowise EX Whitening Water --> Essential Revitalizing Serum/ Herblinic Restorative Ampoules --> Essential Balancing Emulsion/ Snowise EX Whitening Fluid

Night: Sulwhasoo Gentle Cleansing Oil --> Gentle Cleansing Foam --> First Care Activating Serum --> Essential Balancing Water / Snowise EX Whitening Water --> Essential Revitalizing Serum/ Herblinic Restorative Ampoules --> Essential Firming Cream/ Concentrated Ginseng Renewing Cream 

I usually only use cream at night because the texture is thicker than lotion. 
But with the Firming Cream, I can use both day and night, it absorbs fast and doesn't make my face greasy!! 
Next morning I wake up, my face feels clean. 
I have been using 5mL mini jar samples, because it's cleaner and I can switch to other products at times. 
5mL can last ~2 weeks provided that I only use it at night. 

I noticed my skin was moisturized! Fine lines decreased, firmness and elasticity definitely increased in my skin. 

This would definitely be a product I would recommend to others.

Sana Nameraka Honpo Soy Milk Lotion



150 mL, 598 yen

Ingredients﹕
soy bean extracts -- moisturizing
natural collagen -- protect your skin against UV damage

milky white in color, watery emulsion, suitable for day time

Those with dry skin will probably think this one isn't moisturizing enough...
I would suggest you follow with a face cream after applying this milky lotion 



I saw a lot of good reviews for this line!

All ingredients are natural, fragrance free, non-greasy 
However, the milk lotion is different from the toner.. my skin feels sticky afterwards...
i live in Canada.. climate is cool and cold.. not humid at all.. so it really shouldn't feel sticky!!
probably because my skin is combo to oily?
so I would say this product is suitable for normal to dry skin...
