Aqualabel White AC Emulsion

Contents: 130ml
Price: HK$135.00
Local of Purchase: Watsons

According to Aqualabel's webpage:

Deeply hydrating formula that strengthens skin’s natural shield and optimally conditions acne skin. Metabolism is promoted. Pigmentation and visible pores are significantly improved.

Ingredients: Water, Dipropylene glycol, Cetyl Ethylhexanoate, Alcohol, Dimethicone, Glycerin, Ascorbyl Glucoside, PEG/PPG-14/7 dimethyl ether, Erythritol, Xanthan Gum, Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate, Lavandula angustifolia, Sodium Hyaluronate, Soluble collagen, Bergenia ciliata, Hydrogenated Polydecene, PEG-5 Glyceryl Stearate, Potassium Hydroxide, Behenyl Alcohol, Stearic Acid, Isostearic Acid, Behenic acid, Carbomer, Glyceryl diisostearate, Disodium EDTA, Sodium Citrate, Butylene Glycol, Citric Acid, Orange, Tocopherol, Phenoxyethanol

My Opinion:

When I'm done with this bottle, I've promised myself that I will not buy any more emulsion. I'm not sure if the problem is with the product or with myself, but emulsion seems to take forever to be absorbed into my skin.

Apart from the waiting time, this emulsion leaves my skin sticky after application, the reason why I got an emulsion was because I've wanted something lighter for the summer, but this feels heavy on the skin, luckily it didn't break me out.

Aqualabel Creamy Oil Cleansing

Contents: 110g

Price: HKD75.00

Local of Purchase: SASA

According to Aqualabel's webpage:

A makeup remover enriched with GL collagen and skincare cream, it cares for your skin while it cleanses. The creamy oil formula, turning into oil upon contact with skin, is easier to use than ordinary oil base cleansers. Deep penetration into pores ensures that makeup and mascara are removed without a trace.

High Density Hydrating Formula GL Collagen Skincare Cream

Make sure your hands and face are dry. Squeeze a cherry-size amount onto your palm and apply to the entire face with gentle rotating strokes until makeup dissolves. Rinse thoroughly with water.

When Creamy Oil Cleansing turns into oil upon contact with skin, makeup has dissolved. Add water to work into an emulsion and then rinse thoroughly.

My Opinion:

This makeup remover has a creamy texture, but once you rub it into your skin it will turn into a oil. It does remove all my makeup, but I'd usually go over my face again with another foam cleanser.

Aqualabel Royal Rich Essence

Contents: 30ml
Price: HKD199.00

According to Aqualabel's webpage:

The formula contains high concentration of fermented royal jelly GL which ensure effective absorption, powerful revitalization of skin cells and enhancement of firmness by adopting a unique technology of fermentation and maturation. Working with ginseng extract GL and double hyaluronic acid, it offers highly nutritious cell-revitalizing ingredients that activate the functions of skin cells and bring youthful vitality to skin. The essence with smooth texture is lightly scented with rose to soothe away tiredness and tension.  

• Fermented Royal Jelly 
• Ginseng Extract GL 
• Aqua EX base 
• Double Hyaluronic Acid

 

My Opinion:

Very light serum that is almost absorbed instantly by the skin, although it has a very light texture it has provided me with a decent amount of moisture, but please note that I have combo skin.

I would recommend this product for someone young who wants to start introducing anti-age skin care product into their regime, but if you are looking for an anti-aging product with visible results, then forget about it, I did not notice any anti-aging effect while using it.

Aqualabel White AC Essence VC

Contents: 30ml
Price: HKD130

According to Aqualabel's webpage:

White AC Essence inhibits excessive sebum and melanin with an extra dose of winter begonia and multiple effective ingredients. Also giving you results of deep whitening, preventing acne and fading acne marks.

Hyaluronic Acid 

Rich Dose of Winter Begonia 

Lasting Stable Vitamin C Derivative 

Collagen 

Vitamin B6 

Lipidure® 

Dipotassium Glycyrrhizinate

My Opinion:

When I saw this in the store, I though that it was too good to be true, 3 effects (hydrating, whitening and anti acne) in a bottle, if it really works that I must have found a treasure.

I've nearly finish my bottle, and I seriously did not notice any improvement on my skin, but at least it didn't break me out.....

In terms of hydration, I think Aqua Label Moist Essence GG works better, but this product has a very watery texture, and I'd prefer to use this during the summer or perhaps if you have oily skin you might want to try this.

容量：30ml
價錢： HKD130

根據Aqualabel網頁：

清荳美白精華素

大量添加冬季秋海棠精華，並結合多種有效成分，抑制多餘皮脂分泌及防止黑色素形成，深層美白肌膚，預防荳荳產生並淡化荳印。

透明質酸 

大量冬季秋海棠 

持續性維他命C誘導體 

骨膠原 

維他命B6

Lipidure雙重脂質鎖水配方 

甘草酸鹽

我的意見：
最初於店內見到這瓶精華素還以為自己發現寶藏，一瓶精華素有３種功效而且更不用HKD200，實在太便宜。

可惜用了差不多一瓶後，並沒有發現皮膚有什麼改善....

說回這瓶精華素，其質地非常之水，但保濕效果不及Aqua Label Moist Essence GG，但個人認為這瓶比較適合夏天或油性皮膚使用。

Aqua Label Moist Essence GG

Contents: 30g
Price: HKD139

According to Aqua Label's webpage:

The formula contains rich collagen and hyaluronic acid to lock in moisture for an extended period. Glycyl glycine smoothens and reduces pores and reconstructs skin texture.

• Glycyl Glycine 
• Hyaluronic Acid 
• Collagen

Tips: In areas prone to visible pores, tap gently with your fingers so the skincare essence can penetrate deep into the skin.

Ingredients: Water, Alcohol, PEG/PPG-14/7 dimethyl ether, Glycerin, Butylene Glycol, Glycyl Glycine, Silica, Xanthan Gum, Camphor, Menthol, Soluble collagen, Lavandula angustifolia, Sodium Hyaluronate, PPG-13-Decyltetradeceth-24, Carbomer, Aminomethyl propanol, Trisodium EDTA, Citrus aurantium dulcis, Tocopherol, Phenoxyethanol, Polyquathenium-51

My Opinion:

If you are new to Aqua Label, this is a drugstore line from Shiseido.

I think this is a good hydrating serum (please not that I have oily skin), but apart from hydration, I did not notice any improvements on my pore size...

容量：30g

價錢：HKD139

根據Aqua Label網頁：

毛孔修護精華素

含豐富膠原蛋白及透明質酸，長效鎖水保濕。Glycyl Glycine(雙甘氨酸)有效撫平及收細毛孔，重整理肌。

• 雙甘氨酸
• 透明質酸
• 膠原蛋白

使用方法：早晚塗上保濕水後，取約一顆珍珠份量，集中塗在粗大毛孔及粗糙位置。

小秘缺：在毛孔容易粗大的部位，輕輕用指尖敲打肌膚，能讓美容精華更深入肌膚。

 

 

我的意見：

對於不熟悉Aqua Label的人，其實Aqua Label系Shiseido所生產的一個比較大眾化的副線產品。

 

個人認為這支毛孔修護精華素的保濕效果不錯（請注意我是油性皮膚），但除了保濕外並沒有發現毛孔變細....

AquaLabel White Up Base Clear

Contents: 30ml
Shade: clear
Price: HK$88

According to Aqualabel's webpage:

AQUALABEL White Up Base Spf25 Pa +

Reduce dull skin, increase radiance and lucent
Available in 2 shades:
1. Natural : to remove redness
2.Clear : to remove dull and yellowish skin.

My opinion:

For those of you who are not aware of this brand, this is actually a lower end product from Shiseido and you would find it in Watsons or Mannings.

If you have tried this product, you might have notice that your tube comes in 40ml instead of 30ml, that's because I got mine in Taiwan instead of HK.

Although I've got this in shade 2 clear, it actually comes in a bluish greenish tone, and it does even out my skintone. Since it comes with SPF25, I like using it in the summer for some extra sun protections (note I still wear my sunscreen religiously). This product does not leave your skin greasy or oily.

Overall, I do like this product.
