Hello lovelies,

it's been a very long time (2 weeks) since my last review post. There's been grieving news lately and I'm sick too, hence I don't really have the time, energy, nor mood to do one thing that I really like. Blogging. So now, finally, I'm back.

This is a moisturizer that I've been using lately and loving it to the max.

So, how do I get this product? Well, hubby bought it on his trip to Singapore, we're both a huge fan of Neutrogena for years, they have amazing products that can be used by both male and female. Kids too.

One thing that we all can found in common is the need of hydration. But most product in the market doesn't just give hydration, a lot (especially in Indonesia) are 'bundled' with brightening, anti aging (whatever it is), firming and other 'bonus' benefit. Still, the one and only key to a healthy and beautiful skin is still hydration.

There's so many theories regarding hydrating the skin. A lot says it is about exfoliating, so the skin can be 'opened' and there's nothing that create barriers and the moisturizer can be 'accepted' by the skin. It is half true, but not all skin need exfoliating, in fact, a lot of problems happens due to over exfoliating.

Healthy skin exfoliate them self every 28 days, 'forcing' it to exfoliate before time might expose the 'young' skin cells that might look pretty and bright at first but then will become more dull than before the skin is not ready yet to be expose.

-*-



So, if it's not needed, like when your skin is not super duper dull to the level where you rarely clean your face on daily basis (more like once a month), exfoliation is not needed.

Back to moisturizing, basic hydration, which is often understated, was actually the key for a good looking skin. This item is one of my utmost favorite, alongside with Kiehl's UFC, this gel is wonderful. It made my skin moist without being greasy. It has a light texture but enough for a dry and sensitive skin like mine.

The packaging is super cute with light clear blue, even thou it comes in a pot (the least hygienic packaging ever) still, those milky light blue gel looks so good.

With a hint of cool gel, it becomes almost watery on the skin, I can simply use any serum before hand and top it off with also anything I want, from UV protection, makeup base, and just about anything and it made the skin feels supple, happy and with the right amount of dewiness. For me, this is the never go wrong moisturizer.

Definitely recommended for anyone.

Hello lovelies,

I hope everyone is well today ^^ ... talking about hope, there's one skincare from Philosophy named as Hope in a Jar. This is a moisturizer that has caused quite a stir, for being so good.

-*-




Great news for all of us in Indonesia, Philosophy is now here, in Sephora. If you've been wondering about this brand, hopefully this post will help you a bit.

-*-




Philosophy beliefs that the best cosmetic is great looking skin, puts skincare on their first chapter. They also carries fragrances and body lotions.

-*-




I have Hope in a Jar, Oil Free Gel, and Purity Made Simple, a 3 in 1 cleanser. But in this post, it will be about the moisturizer, I'll share with you about Purity on my next post.


-*-

hope in a jar oil-free gel is a lightweight gel moisturiser that helps hydrate, provide mild exfoliation and condition skin for a beautifully smooth, radiant finish.

features & benefits

  • multiple antioxidants to help defend skin against free radicals
  • provides optimal hydration and mild exfoliation
  • amino acids condition skin
-*-


All the details of the product and the philosophy of Philosophy (>.~) are clearly written all over the packaging.

-*-

 

The product itself is a 'simple' moisturizer that gives hydration to normal to oily skin type with it's gel-like formula.

-*-

I'm using it regularly after cleaning the skin, toning and use a serum. At this point, any serum is quite compatible.

-*-


The white slightly creamy gel very light in terms of texture and how it feel on the skin. The scent is unique, it's like a fresh white herbs. It absorb nicely on the skin without leaving any greasy nor sticky effect. The oil free formula really does made for normal-oily skin type hence the light but just right moisturizing effect suits their needs just fine.

Climate like Jakarta made a lot of people suffer from combination skin, usually the ones that have a lot of sebum feels discomfort in using a moisturizer for the oil content in it. Hope in a Jar Oil Free Gel could be the answer for them. Their skin will get the moisture they need without the oils.

The skin become plump, soft and comfortable all day long.

Using any makeup wont be a problem afterwards since there's no oily nor greasy residue left on the skin.

If you happen to have a combination with a few dry parts, you may need a heavier night cream.
