innisfree orchid enriched cream

this is another sample review! i bought the duo sample of innisfree 2014 new line, the orchid line. and two of them are orchid enriched cream and orchid night cream. i've already reviewed the night cream before, and now it's time to review the enriched cream.

what they said about it (from en.koreadepart.com)
main ingredients: cymbidium orchids extract in jeju-do, adenosine, orchid extract, tangerine peel extract, green tea extract, cactus fruit extract, camelia leaf extract, pea extract. orchidelixir from cymbidium orchids extract in jeju-do provide elasticity for skin. contains antioxidant ingredients, and it brightens the complexion and provide elasticity for skin. cream texture with a surge of moisture provides high doses of nutritive inside skin. 5 free system (paraben, synthetic pigment, dioxin, mineral oil, animal nature material).

soo.. let's review the sample..
package: the full size product is packaged in a purple tub. they provide spatula for the full size. the sample is a duo, night cream and enriched cream. both have the picture of the actual product in front of them.
product: it's a ivory cream, the night cream is thicker than the enriched cream. the enriched cream looks a little bit watery and glowy. it's absorbed quicker than the night cream, and it leaves my skin glowy. and it smells nice too, like the night cream. floral scents, probably orchid.
since i try samples only, i can say much about the result, the whitening, anti-wrinkle, tightening and pore care thing.. all i know, it's working opposite of my skinfood peach sake pore serum. the serum mattifies my skin and this orchid enriched cream moisturizes my skin. though the moisturizing power isn't strong enough. i have combination to oily, but now more to combination-normal, and sometimes a bit dry on my outer cheek. in the morning, i find my t-zone (nose, forehead and chin) is more moist but not too greasy, while my cheek seems matte. unfortunately, like the night cream, it causes breakouts at the end of the sample usage... huuu.. so disappointing, while i want it to work for me.

overall, this is a nice cream, you can use it day and night, but i suggest using it at night only since it's pretty thick. it smells nice and it seems promising with all the good features, but probably you'd want to stay out of this cream if you have oily, sensitive, and acne prone skin.
the front and the back of the sample, see the symbol at the back?
i think the sun and moon symbol indicates that this cream can be use day and night.
