Hey guys!
So recently I received a free skin care product from Influenster! They were kind enough to send me the Water Bank Gel Cream by Laneige and they asked me to review it. This product can be found on Sephora.ca (or .com) for around $42 CAD. They say that this product is directed towards normal to combination skin. I have combination skin, there are patches where there are dry spots but also very oily areas.
But lets get into it!
So initially when I got this product it was packaged beautifully, and simple. I find the container so elegant and sleek. It was on the heavier side but I realized that the glass itself is extremely thick. The gel cream actually comes with a little scooper for you to pick up the product (really good for sanitary purposes!).
The product sits on my face wonderfully. In the dry areas, it is absorbed nearly instantly and you can really tell the difference. The red irritation went away within 10 minutes after applying. In areas where I'm a little bit oilier, the product sat a little bit sticky at first. After around 10 minutes the product was absorbed into my skin and my skin felt extremely hydrated, but so lightweight. My main problem when buying creams is that for the oily parts of my skin, it never cooperates with the cream, it would always be over oily and cause me to break out, but the Laneige cream doesn't do that.
The gel cream is fairly thick and sticky feeling at first impression. None the less, I love this new product and I know it'll be in my daily routines!
Product: 9/10
Price: 6/10
Packaging: 9/10
I highly recommend this for anyone with combination skin (also borderline dry-normal skin).
I received these products complimentary from Influenster for testing purposes
With love, Jessica ♥
