First, let me describe my skin type. Currently, I have combination dehydrated skin that's also sensitive. In the past, I used to over-cleanse trying to get rid of oiliness and blackheads, which left my skin feeling tight like it might crack. However, it's much improved now. For the past two months, I've been experiencing small bumps and inflammatory blemishes from my forehead to chin, so I'm careful about which products I use. Based on my experience, tea tree, centella, and hyaluronic acid seem to work well for me. I use them all in moderation. On the other hand, I avoid shea butter, citric acid, and pore-clogging ingredients (like certain acids). These tend to cause small bumps or inflammatory acne for me. Remember, this is just my personal opinion, so please use your own judgment when making a purchase! Application: 4/5 For a product with granules, it's not too harsh, but it might irritate very sensitive skin. That's why I deducted one point. Overall, it applies smoothly. Scent: 5/5 The strong green tea scent is soothing if you're used to grain or tea fragrances. I gave it 5 points since green tea product lovers will likely buy this. It's similar to the scent you might encounter during a foot bath at a massage place. Hydration: 5/5 Unlike the mud pack from the same line, this calming pack doesn't feel tight even after some time. I usually leave it on for about 15 minutes, and there's hardly any tightness during that time. Even after washing it off, my skin feels hydrated. Richness: 3/5 Since this product is also moisturizing, it can feel a bit like there's residue left after washing. It goes beyond feeling moisturized to feeling slick, which makes the skin look soft, but I'm not particularly fond of this sensation. Skin Texture: 5/5 It seems to brighten the complexion slightly and make the skin look smoother. Blemish Care: 4/5 While it doesn't dramatically calm blemishes, it does help soothe areas that were irritated from picking, or slightly red areas without inflammation. Plus, using this pack doesn't cause new blemishes to appear! Ingredients: 5/5 Good because it doesn't contain harmful ingredients! Packaging & Price: 3/5 The amount is a bit small, and it's not particularly cheap. It's fine to use once every 1-2 weeks, but frequent use might be costly. I don't use it often as I have various calming treatments in my routine.
ConsThe price is disappointing. The feeling of residue left on the skin isn't very pleasant.
TipMy Personal Tips: 1. It's great to use when you've already picked at a pimple or when it's in its final stages! 2. Rinsing with cool water seems to help with calming even more. 3. If you dislike the residue feeling, rinse gently multiple times and follow up with an exfoliating toner! 4. It's good to use after exfoliating! I recommend this for: People who want to calm mild redness, those who dislike wash-off masks that leave the skin feeling too tight, and those who like green tea packs and find mugwort suitable for their skin. If you're curious about other products I use or my entire routine, feel free to ask! I've changed not just my cosmetics, but also my cleansing method and entire skincare routine.
