innisfree green tea seed serum

i know.. another innisfree best seller.. but what can i do? reading all those reviews made me want to try it myself. and i have to admit, those bloggers warning about what's good for them might not be good for me it's true.

the description from their global website: a moisturizing and nourishing serum with organic green tea seeds from Jeju to fill the skin with suppleness and clarity.

let me remind you that i just recently read that there's an upgrade version of this serum. i don't know the difference yet between the original and the upgrade version. so i don't know if the sample i'm getting is the original or the upgrade version one.

the packaging: the full version one should be in a green bottle with a pump. i have my sample in a combination with the green tea cream. a sample can be used up to 3-4 times since i only use a tiny bit for my whole face.

the product: it's a clear substance, a bit runny. it's absorbed not that quickly to my skin, and i feel it's a bit tacky at first, but it disappears soon. some said that it mattifies their skin, but for me, if i use it alone, without additional cream or bb cream on top of it, it does mattify my skin. but if i use it in combination, somehow after a few hour it makes my skin oilier than usual.

the smell: it smells nice, but very subtle.

the result: some say it's perfect for oily-combination skin and especially in hot weather. but for me, if i wear it alone, it will be fine, but it's not moisturizing enough. but with combination with other products, it's just not right.

okay.. so in conclusion, i don't know who suits this product, probably they were right, this could benefit those who have combination skin, but definitely not for dry skin. but for me, i'll have to pass this one.
