My Beauty Diary: Apple Polyphenol, Black Cherry Chocolate, Bulgarian White Rose, Sake Yeast, Yogurt

The flavours that I’m reviewing in this entry is much preferable than the ones that I reviewed here. Most of them do not leave a sticky residue and the leftover essence absorbs into my skin pretty quickly.

Apple Polyphenol (skin with enlarged pores)

The light soothing apple scent is very pleasant. It brightens really well BUT it did not tighten my pores, not even temporarily.

The full ingredient list for Apple Polyphenol:
Purified Water, Propylene Glycol, 1,3-Butylene Glycol, Water Cress Extract, Glycerine, Apple Extract, Algae Extract, Nanospheres, Aloe Extract, Albumin, Hibiscus Sabdariffa Extract, Bladder Wrack, Gentian Extract, Hyaluronic Acid, Arnica Extract, Bio-Active Silanols, Lemon Extract, Carbomer, Triethanolamine, Sodium Hydroxide, Xanthan Gum, Citric Acid, Butyl Paraben, Methyl Paraben, Ethyl Paraben, Propyl Paraben, Tween 20, Lactamide, Fragrance.

Black Cherry Chocolate (rough and dull skin)

It smells like chocolate milk, the ones that come in a packet. It delivers on its promise to brighten, unfortunately the leftover essence felt sticky on as it didn’t manage to absorb completely into my skin.

Main Ingredients:
Quince extract and arbutin
- gently remove dead skin cells, leaving rough and dull skin delicate and sleek again

Bulgarian White Rose (dull skin lacking radiance)

I adore the rose scent, it is so soothing and relaxing. It does brighten my face which I am sure many you will be pleased about.

The full ingredient list for Bulgarian White Rose:
Purified Water, Vegetal Collagen, 1,3-Butylene Glycol, Glycerine, Algae, Propylene Glycol, Aloe, Licorice, Kiwi, Arnica, Pineapple, Bulgarian Rose Water, Cucumber, Hyaluronic Acid, Nanospheres, Bio-Active Silanols, Carbomer, Sodium Hydroxide, Potassium Hydroxide, Xanthan Gum, Citric Acid, Triethanolamine, Tween 20, Methyl Paraben, Propyl Paraben, Perfume.

Sake Yeast (extra nutrients and protection)

I do enjoy a cup of sake now and then but I’d prefer not to drown myself in it, the sake scent is disconcertingly strong. Sake Yeast doesn’t leave a sticky residue but it doesn’t have any other redeeming qualities - doesn’t brighten my skin at all or do anything else.

Main Ingredients:
Sake yeast
- accelerates metabolism of stratum corneum; creates fair and flawless skin
Plant collagen
- maintains regenerating and repairing functions of skin

Yogurt (oily skin)

I am mad about the butter cookie scent that this flavour emanates. It brightens and moisturises my face really well!

The full ingredient list for Yogurt:
Purified Water, Propylene Glycol, 1,3-Butylene Glycol, Glycerine, Aloe, Arnica, Vitis Vinifera, Green Tea, Grapefruit, Hyaluronic Acid, Mucopolysaccharides, Yeast Complex, Albumin, Chamomile, Licorice, Nanospheres, Squalane, Watercress, Vitamin E Acetate, Bio-Active Silicones, Carbomer, Triethanolamine, Sodium Hydroxide, Xanthan Gum, Citric Acid, Butyl Paraben, Ethyl Paraben, Propyl Paraben, Methyl Paraben, Dimethicone, Tween 20, Lactamide, Fragrance.

My verdict:
#1 Yogurt
#2 Bulgarian White Rose
#3 Apple Polyphenol
#4 Black Cherry Chocolate
#5 Sake Yeast
