the world is recovering and travelling is resumed. us, too. we've been going out and about again, so i need some travel sized skincare products. i like those that comes in set because usually they have stuff that i need, so i only need to add serum. i've heard about good stuff about blp skin as well, so i think it's a good think that i found this set. i've tried the toner and the serum so now let's talk about the gel.

| how they place the products inside |
the packaging: it comes in a blue box with the outline picture of everything inside at front. at the back, there's a description of everything inside in indonesian. they seal the box with sticker. the moisturizer comes in the same blue box with another description at the back and sides of the box. talking about redundancy... oh well. there's ingredients list printed on the side of the box as well. the gel comes in a dusty blue plastic squeeze tube. the sample size comes in 15 g which is half the size of the usual full size moisturizer (but around a fifth of the full size version of this moisturizer). they seal the opening of the tube, and the seal is quite unique. it's a white plastic seal that i can pop back off and it keeps the product secured inside even after experiencing the cabin pressure.

the scent: this has a subtle floral scent that's very mild and relaxing. i don't mind with the scent as it gives more pleasant memories every time i use this moisturizer.

| description and ingredients list on the box |
the product: it's a milky white gel-type moisturizer. it's not too thick nor too runny. maybe similar to somethinc ceramide or true to skin mugwort moisturizer? it's lightweight and perfect for my morning routine. it's easy to spread around and it doesn't take long to be absorbed. it doesn't feel sticky afterward.

the result: anyway, for hot and humid weather like singapore, this moisturizer alone is enough for me in the morning. however, that didn't apply when i was in finland or US. even though SF/vegas/LA wasn't as cold as finland, it was still cold and dry compared to the weather here (which is hot and humid) that's why after two days in SF, i decided to mix this with a facial oil and it works okay. no more problem after mixing it. and yes, i also mixed it with a facial oil when i was in finland.

among the set, this might be my favorite or my second best (after the toner). it's lightweight and does its work. this is perfect for the weather here, especially in the morning for me. i think this moisturizer is suitable for all skin types, but clearly it won't be enough for dry skin type. the full size moisturizer is still affordable so if you're interested in this line, i suggest you try the toner or the moisturizer. as for me, since there are other moisturizers in my list to try, i won't repurchase this for now.
