This is one of the very first k-beauty products I ever used and it is great. Upon application skin looks very plump and hydrated. After using it every day for a while I did notice my skin much more luminous and even though I still had some pimples here and there, the rest of my skin looked pretty flawless. I've heard some people do not tolerate fermented skincare and if that's your case you may want to stay away from this but for me it made a big improvement on the overall appearance of my skin.
My thoughts on COSRX 95 Galactomyces Whitening Power Essence
I really like this product. It took some time before I realized that and if that happens to you, just take it out of your routine for a couple of weeks and then reintroduce it again and see if you see any difference. If not, maybe it’s not doing much for you. First time I tried this was when I got 10 samples send to me, I wasn’t really sure what I thought of the product then so I needed some more testing to be certain what I think of the product.
It does not have a scent, which is great for me, since I prefer my skincare products to be without a smell. Except perfume that is.
The fluid is clear and a little thicker than water and it penetrates really fast into the skin without leaving a sticky residue.
The packaging is simple but elegant and comes in a hard bottle with a pump. I prefer this over a normal bottle because it is so easy to get the right amount of product.
About its lightening capabilities, it works but the results are quite slow. I mainly use this as my FTE because it applies beautifully. The essence is slippy and great for spreading around. After just a few seconds, my skin drank it up. Even if you put on a lot, it would dry to a matte, non-sticky finish. This helped in absorbing the next layers I pile on. Even sticky snail goo applies better when layered on top of this! Will repurchase!
