WHAT IS IT: Dr. G Super Aquasis Moisture Gel Cream

THE PRODUCT(S):

Dr. G Super Aquasis Moisture Gel Cream: Dr.G GOWOONSESAN Super Aquasis Moist Gel Crèam is a transparent gel texture. Feeling fresh and cold, easy to be absorbed. After frozen, It can be the aid soothing mask or can be the sleeping mask. Gel Cream is rich in mineral and resurrects plants like cactus extract, deep ocean water, and glycerin helps the skin to quench their thirst, and support a moisturizing as well as cleaning to the natural skin. . Gel Crème has also created a moisture-proof protection layer to protect the skin from external stimuli, the skin healthy and elastic.

Despite looking like a cross between gel and cream, I find that it's watery enough so it spreads easily for better absorption :D

VERDICT: The scent is actually quite chemical-like and yet at the same time, it smells aqua-y too. But fortunately, the weird scent combination doesn't quite make me feel nauseous at all, especially during application. As mine comes as a sample kit part, it's actually small enough to bring out of the house when I feel the need to apply a facial moisturizer prior to applying on makeup. It's also small enough to bring overseas, so airport security shouldn't make a boo boo out of it, I think :P

Despite this product being a gel cream, I find that the texture and consistency is close to watery gel when applied. It spreads so easily without fuss. This makes it easier and faster for the gel cream to be absorbed into the skin. Normally, I would have to massage facial moisturizers repeatedly to get the product to spread and get absorbed. But because this is a lightweight gel cream, I find that there's no fuss in doing so. It also didn't make my skin feel as if there's a layer of something sitting on it while waiting for the gel cream to be absorbed.

Upon application onto my skin, I feel this slight cooling sensation. And despite the description stating that it can be chilled/frozen and applied as a sleeping mask of some sort, I actually wasn't brave enough to do it though. Why fix something that isn't broken? It works just fine the way it is, considering that having this extremely cold sensation on your skin might actually make you feel more awake when you are supposed to be preparing for bed ^^;

And after close to a week of using this gel cream, I see a slight improvement to my skin. Acne and pimples doesn't seem to flare up that much while existing acne and pimple scars looks lighter and much more faded than before. Normally, I find korean facial products not really working as it is for my skin, considering that despite it's asian-based, you still have to factor in that hot, sunny and humid Singapore never have autumn and/or winter-like weather. So, I sometimes find that it may or may not work for me. For surprisingly, this works just fine.

VERDICT: ✓✓✓
