Besides Sooryehan & Beyond, I also received Beauté Revital snail products, also from LG Household and Health Care. You can purchase 'em via The Face Apps.

Beauté Revital Power Snail Cream

$89.90 / 45ml

Contains 60.04% snail secretion filtrate!

An extra mild snail cream that enhances the regeneration ability of stem cells with the natural self-healing power of snails.

This all-natural snail cream uses, instead of high purified water, a high concentration of mucin, an ingredient present in the viscous secretion of snails that gives snails their self-healing ability to move across a razor blade unscathed.

Rich in chondroitin sulfates, mucin visibly reduces skin troubles and blemishes with the amazing power to revitalize skin and protect it from harmful surroundings, leaving skin smooth, clear and clean. Also, the rapid lifting effect of sweet almond proteins leaves skin firm, while natural biopolymers generated from soy fermentation maintain hydration.

How to use?

• Spread cream into a thin layer over cheeks and forehead.
• Lightly pat skin with palms.
• Continue patting until the viscous substance has been fully absorbed.

7-free:- artificial colorant-free, ethanol-free, mineral oil-free, triethanolamine-free, benzophenon-free, BHT-free, GMO-free

It is housed in a typical acrylic jar and comes with a spatula (not pictured) for hygiene purpose.

I've been using this for a month so far. This is the final step of my skincare routine, after toner and serum. That is, if I'm not using Sooryehan Fermented Overnight Pack.

I prefer to use it at night as I find that the consistency to be too rich for day use. Mildly gummy, I would say. Inevitably, it does take a while to absorb. I'll lightly pat the skin for a few mins until I feel it's fully absorbed. Once absorbed, it doesn't feel as sticky as before.

Hmm... there's one thing that this product can do without - the strong sweet creamy scent (I think it's the sweet almond proteins?), which can be rather overwhelming. Well... as long as the product works well, nothing else matters right? heh.

Overall, I like that it is effective in skin regenerating... the healing of blemish scars and improvement in natural skin tone. My complexion is visibly clearer and smoother now. It also hydrates the skin pretty well, leaving it soft and supple. Moreover, it doesn't clog pores or cause any irritations/breakouts. Thumbs up! ♥

Beauté Revital Power Snail Mask

$9.90 / 1pc

It contains 0.5% of snail secretion filtrate.

The hydrogel mask material is thin and translucent, and the texture is similar to that of agar-agar. It comes in upper and lower parts, wedged between a white plastic sheet and a clear film... which I've encountered slight difficulty in getting the mask out. Part of the mask doesn't adhere to the skin well. Upon applying on the mask, there's a nice cooling sensation.

I leave on the mask for about 20 mins. The essence has faint whiffs of floral, very pleasant. It has a runny consistency, which feels mildly slimy. Instead of rinsing with water (after mask removal), I lightly pat the essence until it's fully absorbed into skin. It only takes about few mins, by the way. Ahh... it feels so nourishing for the skin!

Within such a short time span, the mask has the incredible ability to soothe most of the redness on my skin (due to light extraction). It also hydrates the skin very well. My skin looks much brighter and glowy after mask-ing. Definitely one of the better masks I've tried so far.

Skincare review again (within such a short time frame)? No-no. I'd been using Murad Hydro-Dynamic™ Ultimate Moisture before the Neogence Ace series (~3weeks)... And now, I'm back on this. I received it last year at its launch event... it's time for a proper review!

According to murad.com...

Why you need it:

Uber-rich, intensely hydrating, all purpose cream provides instant and long term relief from dryness

Primary Benefits:

• Locks in optimal moisture levels for 8 hours
• Restores resilience and tone

What else you need to know... [via sephora.com]

Formulated WITHOUT: Parabens, Sulfates, Synthetic Fragrances, Synthetic Dyes, Phthalates, GMOs, Triclosan

Retinyl palmitate and shea butter improve texture and restore natural smoothness and softness while Murad's Collagen Support Complex boosts skin's resilience and plumps dehydrated skin.

This product is gentle enough for sensitive skin and dermatologist-developed.

The moisturizer is housed in a sturdy acrylic jar.

This is the amount I use on my face. A little goes a long way.

I agree that it has a uber-rich texture. I would say, pretty thick for Singapore's hot and humid climate. It's nothing greasy, much to my delight.

It does leave a slight film on the skin. Nothing too uncomfortable.

I layer it on, after serum.

Going on to the review... Murad Hydro-Dynamic™ Ultimate Moisture has a slight scent to it, which I can't quite put into words to describe. Anyway, it takes some time to absorb. Say 15mins? I wouldn't label it as "lightweight" definitely. Fyi, I wasn't too fond of this moisturizer initially, just so because I find the texture too rich for my combination skin (oily on the outside, dry on the inside). That is the reason why I only incorporate it in my night skincare routine. And, I try to apply just a thin layer, after serum. Despite that, I wake up with a somewhat "greasy-looking" face. It doesn't bother me much unless I use it in the day (which I don't). I do notice that my skin feels really soft and supple after washing up. So far, it doesn't clog pores or cause any irritations/breakouts. For me, it's great for overnight use. I wouldn't recommend it for day use unless your skin is very-very dry.

Overall, I do like how my skin looks visibly plumped up after few weeks of use. I would love it if the texture is much lighter, so I can use it in the day as well. The bottom line is, those with really dry skin will adore this much... AND esp. those living in countries with winter climate.

Retails for SGD$142 (50ml).
