Raise your hands if you still get adult pimples, because I sure do! Curing adult pimples is very challenging because it could be caused by a lot of things. Allergies, the food you eat, hormones and even bad habits like frequent touching of the face. For the past few years, I try to find products that will allow me to control (not really cure) my pimples - because I realize and have come to accept that they will never leave me. I came across with Mario Badescu Special Healing Powder in Sephora Ph.
Before I bought it online, I did a couple of research and read a ton of reviews and finally decided to give it a try. Mario Badescu is actually a well-respected brand. Being around for more than 50 years, this American grown acne product actually started by giving European-style facials in a two-room Manhattan apartment. Fifty years later, Mario Badescu has been providing quality skin solutions from acne down to anti-skin aging.
Today, I am trying out Erborian CC Cream in Clair that I got as a sample from Sephora Philippines. Erborian is a Korean CC cream brand that is lauded for its light and natural look finish. I've been reading reviews about Erborian CC Cream for quite some time, however, I've been delaying the purchase because it is quite pricey. At Php 2,389 it is definitely on the high end of our budget. Good thing, Sephora offered this as a free sample! It's always best to try out really expensive products first because it is one thing to spend a fortune on beauty products, but it's definitely frustrating to buy the wrong thing, putting your money down the drain!
So, here goes my review of Erborian CC Cream in Clair.
From the Sephora Philippines website, it says that Erborian CC Cream in Clair has SPF 25 coverage, has a one-shade-fits-all color matching technology. It is paraben-free, sulfate-free and phthalate-free. Erborian CC Cream in Clair says that it contains the secret of Korean skin perfection due to its high-definition skin perfecting formula that self-adjusts to the skin tone for a flawless looking complexion and even coverage. It is enriched with centella asiatica that boosts radiance while helping to hydrate skin and protect from harmful UVA/UVB rays. It's lightweight coverage helps skin appear refined, soft and healthy-looking.
So as you know, I got this as a sample - although this is a really small package, I would say that a little bit will go a long way. This small packet can be good to up to seven applications.
