erha age corrector trial kit: peptide and hyaluronate day cream

just like i said in my other post, i bought this erha age corrector trial kit because i thought i could bring it on traveling, but it turned out that it only has essence, serum, day cream and night cream. it doesn't even have a facial foam so i can't bring it with me during traveling. plus, aside from the essence, the size is really tiny so it's no use to bring them since it will be gone before i get home. anyway, i have no choice but to try it at home now. i've used up the essence so now it's the moisturizers turn. this time the day cream one. 

this is the description translated from their website: new anti aging formula is coming. moist face all the time with age corrector day moisturizer. new formula from anti aging system in which not only capable of maintaining elasticity but also can help fade wrinkles on the skin maximally. helps to look younger with wrinkle filler effect. with matrixyl synthe-6 that acts as wrinkle filler effect that works to moist and fade fine lines and wrinkles on face, maintain skin elasticity, make skin looks healthy, bright and tight. face looks bright and well-nourished all day. face looks moist and bright because of vitamin e, a, c and P that works as an antioxidant. helps to prevent early aging.

description and ingredients list at the back
the packaging: i bought this in a set, so it comes in a red/white box with description of everything inside at the back as well as the ingredients list. there's a picture of everything in the set at front. all the products are placed on a cardboard platform so everything is secure inside. both the day and night cream come in squeeze tube like an ointment tube, only it's made of plastic. both still use red/white combination, but for the day cream, the white is on top while the red is at the bottom. they seal the opening with aluminum foil. it only comes in 6 g so it's not that much, even for a sample size.
the tube
the scent: for the day cream, there's a subtle scent perhaps from the ingredients, but it's barely noticeable unless you sniff it real close. 
how it looks like on my hand
the product: it's a pale cream moisturizer, but the consistency is close to lotion. it's quite runny that i have to tilt it upside down so it won't come out from the opening before i press the tube. since it's quite runny, it's easy to spread around and doesn't take long time to be absorbed. 
after spreading it around
the result: the moisturizer is quite lightweight, but still has some punch. it's quite moisturizing for a day cream. for me personally, it will be too oily when the weather is hotter, but for now during the rainy days, it works okay. the sample size is too little to prove its claim, but it's quite moisturizing so probably it will work well to prevent aging signs.

i have to say that this is not my preference. even though it has lotion-like consistency, it's quite moisturizing and can be a bit oily. somehow it feels similar to hada labo emulsion that i couldn't finish. luckily, i only get this in a sample size, or i wouldn't be able to finish it. anyway, i think it's more suitable for normal to dry skin and can be too oily for oily skin, but there's the set, so you can try it first before deciding. price wise, i can't say for sure since i don't know the price of the full size one. as for me, definitely won't buy the full size nor repurchase the set.
