if you've read my previous post, then you might know that i only bring a sample sachet to my last trip to melbourne. i usually try a lot of samples during my holiday, and honestly, i'm quite happy that it's a hybrid product since i don't have my usual skincare. i got this sample along with my birthday gift from my sister. but since i only have one sachet, this won't be a thorough review, but only a quick impression.
this is the description from missha.co.nz:
- smart 8-in-1 benefit: all-in-one cream containing 8-step skincare's benefits from toner to moisture primer helps minimize friction and discomfort to skin.
- skin friendly ingredients: skin friendly cream containing skin analogous ingredient works mildly to skin.
- all-in-one customized texture: water-full gel cream texture provides nutrients as rolling, and leaves clear finish without stickiness.
8-in-1 benefits: toner (prepare skin), lotion (balance moisture/oil level), essence (provide nutrients), moisture primer (radiant and glossy skin), firming cream, mask pack (soothe skin), moisturizing cream, and whitening cream.

the packaging: the full size version comes in a tub like in the picture above, but the sample comes in a boring square sachet with the full size picture in front of it. like the other samples, it doesn't have any english text except for "not for sale".
the scent: i was having flu when i tried this sample so i can't smell any scent, although i've sniffed hard.
the product: it's a milky white gel cream, quite thick, like jelly in consistency. and since it's thick, it takes quite some time to be absorbed. after being absorbed, it leaves matte finish. no sticky feeling afterwards. one sachet can be used twice.
the result: the one thing that this cream does to my skin was moisturize. but i think the snail AIO is more moisturizing than this one. now let's discuss its property as 8-in-1 product. it's quite thick so i don't think it's suitable as a toner. but as lotion or essence and moisturizing cream, i think it might work well for that. as for firming cream and whitening cream, i can't say anything about that since i only this twice. but i've tried it at night, using it twice, like the instructions say for sleeping pack, but i don't feel any difference. i don't feel any added moisture like when i use my sleeping pack.
so obviously, i won't purchase this one, or purchase other samples. i think this is too ambitious, aiming 8-in-1 benefits... but if you like hybrid product, then try this one. i think it will suitable for any skin types, but probably won't be enough for dry skin.
