| I'm going to do a double review this time because I have the same comments for both products.
First, I have emptied 2 bottles of this line (1day and 1night) and I'm unto my 3rd bottle. I don't use them in tandem, meaning, one for night and one for day since I personally don't see the difference aka no sunscreen to differentiate day use. BUT reading through the formulation I was under the impression that the night formula is more for restoration with ingredients meant for the skin to be soaked longer on.
I love that both formulas are really light but not greasy. Normally, my experience with moisturizers is that it would either be heavy and greasy (think 80s Pond's cold cream days and your mom's soft skin in the morning) or its the matte finish but your skin ends up feeling tight and dry (I like tight but not dry, what's the point of using a moisturizer?). You'd experience neither here.
Both are mildly scented. I kept on thinking whether I prefer one over the other but I actually like both scents. Also, I don't mind using it on my neck when I wear perfume since its scent isn't strong enough to create a reaction THOUGH it could be that my perfume just goes well with this product. This, I can't verify with absolute truth as I've only tried it with my usual scents.
The have a 50ml and 100ml bottle which gives the users options - small and portable or something that would last longer. I have bought the 100ml ones and from experience with daily use of 2-3 pumps, it would last me 5-6 months. Not bad for the price. I'd go and say, it's actually cheap. One caveat though is if you ordered this online you might get the older stocks with just a couple month's worth of shelf life. So my suggestions for first time users is buy the smaller bottle and guage how long you'd be able to empty it.
Regarding the bottle and the pump mechanism, all the ones I have recieved are in perfect condition. None broke or got cracked even with multiple accidents and collision with the floor. The packaging design in itself is very clean and straightforward that I feel confident with bringing the entire bottle with me on trips (yes, nakakahiya minsan magdala ng personal products when people are rummaging thru your bags).
Overall, for me at least, whether you choose the day or night moisturizer you get a good product for a good price. No extras in this packaging, just a simple moisturizer with no special tricks but good enough to say it deserves a place in my dresser.
Here are my scores:
Packaging - 5 out of 5
Scent - 5 out of 5
Price - 5 out of 5
Efficacy - 4 out of 5 (only because its all basic, would love some spf in the future)
