PURITO Centella Green Level Eye Cream Review

I genuinely like purito as a brand , everything that I have tried so far has impressed me both in terms of quality and price wise. Most importantly the products are EWG approved and created from honest ingredients.
Most of the eyecreams that I have seen in the market boast of reducing the appearnce dark circles and wrinkles but instead of making tall hollow claims but Purito Centella Green Level Eye Cream promises to reduce the overall appearance of wrinkles with the help of Peptides, Hyaluronic acid and Centella Asiactica
As the years pass by the area around the eys become sunken and wrinkled. The skin sags downward and the capillaries become prominent (aka the dark circles)
Though I am in my early twenties I want to take good care of skin from now on so that by the time I hit my forties I look young for my age 🙌

This is one of a kind Centella Asiatica containing eye cream  there is about 45% centella extract blended in with multiple peptides, panthenol and Hyaluronic acid to create a barrier which prevents moisture loss and wrinkle formation

Ingredients
Centella Asiatica Extract, Water, Hydrogenated C6-14 Olefin Polymers, Glycerin, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Cetyl Ethylhexanoate, Cetyl Alcohol, 1,2-Hexanediol, Butylene Glycol, Methyl Trimethicone, Dipropylene Glycol, Pentaerythrityl Tetraisostearate, Dipentaerythrityl Hexa C5-9 Acid Esters, Potassium Cetyl Phosphate, Cetearyl Olivate, *Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea) Butter, Palmitoyl Hexapeptide-12, Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1, Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7, Palmitoyl Dipeptide-10, Asiaticoside, Asiatic Acid, Sodium Hyaluronate, Madecassic Acid, Sorbitan Olivate, *Stearic Acid, Polyglyceryl-2 Stearate, Tromethamine, Caprylyl Glycol, Glyceryl Stearate, Panthenol, Carbomer, Stearyl Alcohol, Hydrolysed Collagen, Cholesterol, Acetyl Glucosamine, Argania Spinosa Kernel Oil, Limnanthes Alba (Meadowfoam) Seed Oil, Macadamia Ternifolia Seed Oil, Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer, Ceramide NP, Pancratium Maritimum Extract, Camellia Sinensis (Green Tea) Leaf Extract, Alteromonas Ferment Extract, Citrus Aurantium Bergamia (Bergamot) Fruit Oil, Disodium EDTA, Adenosine, *Lavandula Angustifolia (Lavender) Oil

 Packaging
Standard sqeeuze tube witha silver cap which holds 30ml of product. Thats honestly a lot for an eye cream. Most eye creams come in 10-15ml formulations
About the product
White in color this eye cream has a rich creamy  texture which spreads easily on the skin and takes time to absorb into the skin.
I have noticed that this gives a slightly cooling sensation on application which feels quite pleasant. I have also detected a mild pleasant scent to it too. If you look closely at the ingredient list you are going to notice that there is no trace of niacinamide in this cream . So its main goal is to provide hydration.
Due to its rich heavy texture this really nourishes and hydrates the under eye area.  Due to changes in weather and my poor diet my skin has changed a lot in last few months. The makeup under my eyes  often look patchy due to dry under eye area. Ever since I have started using this particular eye cream I have noticed that my  under eye area looks relatively more soft and plump. This has helped mu makeup look a lot more seemless and fresh.

You might know by now that I share my skincare with my  mother and she has dry skin. The amazing results produced by this eyecrean are more noticeable on her under eye area.  Though the wrinkles are there , the sunken part looks plump. Plus it feels very moisturized and soft.
I am happy that this is preservative free but sad that I have to finish this earlier as this might go bad. But thats ok becauss this cream retails for 17$ and most of th time there is some kind of event going on so I can always grab it at a discounted price

I rate this 4.5/5

Gobdigoun9 Goat Milk First Step Tone Up Cream

Milk has been used as a skincare ingredient for centuries, Cleopatra use to take a bath in donkey milk to maintain her suppleness of her skin and prevent ageing.
Gobdigoun9 is a korean skincare brand known for its extensive use of milk and placenta extracts as chief ingredient

Milk is an excellent source of lactic acid and many vitamins. Not only it hydrates and brighten the skin, the lactic acid acts as a chemical exfoliant and removes the dead skin cells from the surface.


This contains 40% milk protein extract,  niacinamide for lightening and brightening, glycerin for moisture, titanium dioxide (physical sunscreen), sodium hyaluronate (hydration) and goat milk extract.

This is a two in one product i.e moisturizer and makeup primer( prolongs the lasting power of base makeup)
I am smitten by the packaging just like the eye cream this looks very luxurious. The outer box is pretty, and the squeeze tube packaging makes it easy to control the amount of product and prevents bacteria from spoiling the cream


Texture wise I find it quite liquidy like a lotion and easy to spread.  For a person with oily skin I am pleased ro report that this does not feel greasy or heavy on the skin. This has close to none white cast and is scent free ( initially it goes on white and milky but after few minutes this cream evens out skin tone with a hint if brightening effect)  As I have fair skin I haven't noticed much of white cast effect. For me this product works as shortcut to good skin day minus makeup/bb cream.
I love wearing this tone up cream on its own when I dont feel like putting on makeup or when I am at home and want to look a little presentable and put together 😁
I have worn this under makeup and like how this makes my skin look less cakey and more fresh. Sometimes tone up creams can cause pilling underneath makeup but this absorbs really well and makes the makeup look a whole lot smoother

I like sharing my makeup skincare with my mom and sister. My sister has a slightly wheatish skin color and on her skin this does not leave white cast effect either.

This product is suitable for all skin types

ELIZAVECCA Milky Piggy Centellla Asiatica 100% Review

Centella Asiatica is one of the best ingredients If you have sensitive skin. It calms and soothes the skin
 Though I have oily skin , I prefer using skincare products containing Centella.extracts because it has helped me in keeping my face acne free
ELIZAVECCA claims that this is 100% centella asiatic essence which is free from alcoholic,parabens, artificial coloring and
fragrance
An essence contains fermented substance offers deep moisture and equips the skin to absorb nutrients from the next skin care stage
Use after cleansing and before skin water. Dispense appropriate amount onto a cotton pad and apply to the whole face

Packaging:
Standard sleek frosted glass bottle with amber colored liquid inside. The product can be dispensed from the stopper on top (with a hole )

Its adviced to use 2-3 drops on the freshly cleansed face.  Now I persinally feel that 2-3 is quite inadequate for my face so I pour about a coin side amount of this product on my palm and pat it on my face until all of the product is absorbed


I have been using this for quite some time and am suprised how well this works for my skin. This has a very faint Bark scent (herbal). Initially on application It feels watery with a hint of oilyness ( I havent seen any oil film or oil droplets in the essence though its looks homogenized through and through)
After two minutes this absorbs completely into the skin leaving soft skin. This works well for both A.M and P.M routine. This the bottle is huge (150 ml) I use this generously like a toner on my face 3 time a day.

What impressed me the most is that this essence actually brightens skin along with healing and moisturizing. I have been patting some of this essence on my hands and this has made a significant improvement on the texture plus removed the tan from the back of my hands
The only bummer about thks product is The packaging is heavy as its made of glass. So I am often afraid that I might accidentally drop it one  day
