(PR) Kose CosmePort Best Sellers Review
08:52:00A big thank you for kose cosmeport for sending me a big bag of goodies to try out, have fun and pamper myself with~! I received a total of 12 items and had been trying them out on and off for the past 2 weeks.
Clear Turn Babyish Sheet Mask.
It comes in 3 varients; moisturising, whitening & plumping.
7 sheetmask in a pack and I am not a fan of this invention. Although said so, this mask is really worth a try.
The pink one is the moisturising mask.
(Contains Hyaluronic Acid)
• For moisturising skin
• For care of fine lines from dehydration and for moisturising effect
• Contains hyaluronic acid glycerin and provitamin B5GL to moisturise
Ingredient list as sated above.
This is a very lightweight sheetmask. Prefer it to be more soaked. Not too heavy for oily skin too. I had it on for 10-15 minutes and it started drying up.
Next, the gold packaging one contains Coenzyme Q10.
• For anti-aging care, for skin without enough translucency and resilience
• Contains coenzyme Q10 glycerin and royal jelly glycerin to moisturise
• Royal jelly glycerin contains 40 types of nutrients to provide natural moisture and resillience
They claimed to have safe ingredients used in the mask to prevent higher risk of allergy reactions.
The texture and the essence of the mask seems similar to the pink one hmm.
The last one with silver packaging is for plumping.
• For re-plumping skin
• For care of fine lines from dehydration and for moisturising effect
• Contains hyaluronic acid glycerin and provitamin B5GL to moisturise
Although the essence and sheet mask all felt the same, this particular one felt more hydrating for me.
Use them up ASAP after opening as it might dry up if unsealed.
How it looks inside.
I seldom use mask of this material though and I also found it drying up faster than usual mask I had used. After numerous timing, the wearing time in aircon is approx 10 minutes or so only. I prefer the mask to be wet still when removing so it doesn't suck out the moisture from my skin instead.
It is very lightweight, absorbs fast without any major issues. It's ok to be an everyday mask but since it contains parabans, I would be avoiding it when my skin is feeling angry. Although having said so, I still found it a nice mask to use when I needed something just to lower my skin temperature and also, when I need a quick routine for lazy days. It's fast and does it's hydration job!
-----------------------------------
Final Verdict
Packaging: 2.5/5 (I prefer them separated.)
Effectiveness: 3.5/5 (It's decent, yea, just there.)
Level of recommendation: 3.5/5 (It might be great for travel, for it's compact packaging. It absorbs very fast which is great for lazy days and morning rush.)
-----------------------------------
I personally loved both of these masks out of all they had sent me. Especially the black mask, it gave me a visible brightened skin tone.
Ingredient list stated on the back too.
Each box comes with 5 masks. I used one each and opened one for review purposes.
Kose Clear Turn Black Mask
• For those who want intensive moisturising and whitening care
• Contains Japanese medical herb extract to nourish skin
• Made from a compound of fermented soy milk extract, glycerin and scutellaria baicalensis root extract to promote tight, white skin
• For a fresh skin with a translucent look
It brightened up my skin tone tremendously. Besides this, it was really hydrating.
Adheres better than babyish mask for me. Felt really satisfying.
Lightweight essence as shown above.
-----------------------------------
Final Verdict
Packaging: 5/5 (Small and compact.)
Effectiveness: 4.8/5 (It performed better than my expectation, instant brighting of skin upon removal, great.)
Level of recommendation: 4.5/5 (Did not smell full of alcohol thankfully. Helps brightened up skin tone and it was a comfortable fit.
-----------------------------------
Kose Clear Turn White Mask HA Hyaluronic Acid was also a great mask. Both performed better than babyish in my opinion.
Lightweight, adheres well to skin. Skin felt smooth and supple - deep hydration delivered as promised.
This essence was thicker than the black one. It was exactly like my hyaluronic serum kind of texture. This took a slightly longer time to absorb than the black but it really PLUMPS up my skin. I think using this once a week would be good for me.
The gel essence.
It instantly plumps up my skin. I am very satisfied with both of this. Given a choice, I would definitely repurchase them (ps: when there is a sale :p) This also helps control my oiliness. Wondering if it's because it balances the sebum and oil production hmm.
-----------------------------------
Final Verdict
Packaging: 5/5 (Small and compact.)
Effectiveness: 4.5/5 (It takes a while to pat it all in.)
Level of recommendation: 4/5 (I would prefer the black one more though. I do feel it's gonna be a great mask if my skin is very dehydrated.)
-----------------------------------
Kose Cosmeport Black Sugar Ferment Extract 6-in-1 Moisture Gel Cream
Special black sugar (“kokutou”) is fermented with a special yeast using a unique technique, resulting in a concentrated compound of fermented black sugar extract, an original KOSÉ ingredient. Rich ingredients for beautiful skin including fermented black sugar extract will care for many skin problems in a multi-faceted way, giving you skin in great condition. For skin that won’t dry out, and hydration that feels self-sustained, with a cosmetic that penetrates the skin and works on every last cell in the stratum corneum.
A very interesting and unique packaging which I had never seen before.
This is a great packaging idea, however, is it really 'tight' enough I wonder.
Here's how the cream looks like. White gel like.
It has a very silicon-y kind of texture. Although so, it spreads out pretty lightweight. I tried this for 5 nights straight and am glad to report, I don't feel any major adverse reactions to it. However, I did had a few close comedones forming these days, which might also be due to the weather factor.
A little goes along the way for me.
-----------------------------------
Final Verdict
Packaging: 3.5/5 (Genius idea but wondering if it's air tight enough.)
Effectiveness: -/5 (I can't see much effects as of now, I will update on this part soon.)
Level of recommendation: -/5
-----------------------------------
Kose Cosmeport Suncut UV Protect Gel Super Water Proof
A waterproof gel that withstands sweat, water and excess oil, yet is light and pleasant to use.
This sweat-proof gel with a maximum UV protecction factor almost melts into your skin
to protect you from damage caused by exposure to UV rays.
Small precise opening for dispensing.
It's a little tacky though. It's slightly yellowish in colour with slight viscosity. It takes a while to set fully before I can apply my makeup. I prefer the sun sprays over this for now.
-----------------------------------
Final Verdict
Packaging: 4/5 (A convenient size to bring around for sure.)
Effectiveness: 3/5 (I need a less tacky sunscreen or my makeup base will not adhere.)
Level of recommendation: 3/5 ( There are many more sunscreens available without any tacky residues hmm.)
-----------------------------------
(White) Kose Suncut UV Protect Spray Sunscreen SPF50++++
(Blue) Kose Suncut UV Protect Spray Aquary Floral SPF50++++
The SUNCUT products has been carefully designed to protect your hair and skin from the damage caused by exposure to UV rays. It is also pleasant to use and gentle on skin.
I personally love BOTH of these as compared to the previous sun gel mentioned. This doesn't leave any sticky residue and just gives me the protection I want and need without much hassle too.
It's amazing how fuss free and fast it works in protecting my skin against harmful UV rays.
Just look at how lightweight this thing is. I like to spray this over my scalp as I am always so worried over the sun shining brightly over it. I will use my pouch to cover my scalp every time LOL, now fret no more.
-----------------------------------
Final Verdict
Packaging: 5/5 (Easy to bring about and one spray saves the skin from harmful UV rays)
Effectiveness: 4.8/5 (This is a winner. I love the white one!)
Level of recommendation: 4.8/5 (Just get it already!)
-----------------------------------
Lastly, the shampoo, treatments for hair.
Oh boy, I love the scent so much. I wished these were color shampoos since I have blonde hair.
The scent is amazing, fruity berries and after a week's wash, my hair smells heavenly. My sister uses this and her hair is so so soft now. For mine, it's still a little dry because I have bleached hair and normally it requires a richer shampoo.
Although so, I still love them because of it's scent. Its so therapeutic.
