PURITO Galacto Niacin 97 Power Essence

Lately I write lots of reviews about the products of Purito brand. It is not only because I am in love with Purito cosmetics, but also because of their philosophy. Their philosophy is to be honest and make safe, natural products, without artificial fragrances, preservatives, surfactants and PEG’s; to make eco-friendly packaging when possible and not to conduct animal testing.

And now about essence itself. The main ingredients are Galactomyces ferment filtrate (92%) rich in vitamins, minerals, amino acids, peptides, and Niacinamid (5% – it is a very high percentage for Korean skincare, so it will help brighten your skin tone). The full list of ingredients you can find here. This essence doesn’t contain any preservatives and it is made in small batches. They recommend placing this in the refrigerator and using it quickly. The manufacturer promises brightening of hyper-pigmentation, reduction of fine lines, moisturization and sebum production control.

My comments: I did not notice anything special the first week of usage and I was about to write that I did not recommend this essence. But during the second week my hyper-pigmentation became considerably lighter and I decided to give the essence the second chance. And it was worth it! My skin was so smooth and supple to the touch after I applied this essence. I felt that the essence gave my skin a quick boost of moisturizing hydration. It absorbs quickly, without any greasy or sticky residue. The essence is very delicate and it is great for every skin type including sensitive one.

Sulwhasoo everefine lifting ampoule serum

Nutrient-rich lifting line for women in their 50s and 60s. Nutrient-rich lifting serum resists signs of aging, including loss of elasticity and undernourished appearance by absorbing into even the skin and delivering an immaculate finish. Ancient herbal medicine mixed with Maeseondan™ and Shiitake extracts enhances skin lifting.

Sulwhasoo’s Maeseondan™ is made with Licorice, Ginkgo leaves and elasticity-enhancing coumestrol, which is found in Bean Leaves extract and amplified tenfold. With the Shiitake extract that intensively nourishes the skin, Maeseondan™ improves elasticity for supple skin.

My comments: The first thing I though about when I saw this serum is a moonstone. The play of colors and shades of the serum are exactly the same as of the moonstone. I was astonished by this beauty. While applying I had also unusual feelings. The texture is thick but very spreadable. The skin appears instantly deep nourished, becomes smooth and well-groomed if you wish. I think this serum is not a match for people with oily or combination skin. But for people with signs of aging, including loss of elasticity, this serum is a wonder. I recommend it to the ladies in their chic years.

PURITO Centella Green Level Buffet Serum–review

The brand Purito is blessing us with a whole line based on Centella Asiatica (CA).
This is a unique plant regarding its effects on the skin, although it looks like a weed.
In China this plant is called “The fountain of youth”. In Ayurveda CA is called Gotu Kola, “a pharmacy in one herb”. It is found in most tropical and subtropical
countries growing in swampy areas, including parts of East Asia, the north of
Australia and New Guinea. The primary active constituents of CA are saponins (also called triterpenoids), asiatic and madecassic acids, asiaticoside, centelloside, vitamin C, polyacetylene compounds, flavonoids, tannins. Extract of CA is used in
cosmetology for preventing premature aging and for strengthening the weakened veins (as a sign of rosacea). CA speeds up wound healing and assists in the maintenance of connective tissue via increasing collagen synthesis up to 30% in the deep layers of the skin.
Centella Green Level Buffet Serum contains 49% of CA extract, niacinamide, camellia leaf extract, adenosine, ceramide, sodium hyaluronate, etc. The manufacturer claims that all the herbs were picked and sorted by hand. This serum is recommended for all skin types including sensitive ones. Here you can find the full list of ingredients.

My comments: Beauty products with Centella are always a jackpot. This serum is a clear liquid with a really nice plant scent most probably due to the CA flavor (it is the main ingredient after all). Serum adsorbs very fast and makes the skin supple, firm and smooth. I do not expect any miracles from a serum by itself. It does its job silently. But using the whole Purito line with Centella I noticed that my nasty painful hormonal cysts (those ones that cannot be treated with anything) are calming down.
This serum reduces swelling and inflammation, makes the skin smooth and
nourishes it. I honestly like everything about this serum. After using 10 samples I
will definitely purchase full-sized product.
