My 7-Day Experience with iWhite Korea

Last March 8, a package from iWhite Korea came in our house. I was so excited 'cause it was my first time to receive such gifts from a sponsor. Haha.

iWhite Korea products is very familiar to me since I've been seeing their products in many establishments. Since then I've been planning to buy their products and as a wise consumer, I first read product reviews before buying.

Lucky enough that I was one of the chosen bloggers who were given such freebies, yehey! So here's my 7 day experience with iWhite Korea products.....




GlutaBerry White Soap



“iWhite Korea GlutaBerry White Soap is formulated with natural antioxidants and skin lightening agents that protect skin against cellular damage and premature aging and giving it a healthy and fair complexion."

Active Ingredients:

Glutathione – essential body chemical that acts as a natural antioxidants and detoxifying agent that protects your skin from premature aging giving it a whiter and more radiant complexion.

Mulberry extract – from the root of white mulberry with natural lightening agent that inhibits melanin production for an even-toned complexion.

Vitamin E – protects your skin from free radicals for a younger looking skin.

Price: P 89.00 ($ 2.18)

Net weight: 90 grams

I used the soap as my all over body soap and let it stay for 2 minutes. I really enjoy lathering because of its foam and unlike other whitening soaps, it is not itchy on my skin though it contains kojic acid. I really love its floral scent, so mild and refreshing! I can say made my skin smoother. Actually, I do not need to apply lotion when I'm using this soap.


Whitening Pack and Nose Pack


"iWhite Whitening Pack instantly removes dead skin, deep-seated dirt and impurities to reveal a radiant, glowing, younger-looking skin
Especially formulated with Mulberry Extract that whitens dark skin and evens out discolorations, Panax Ginseng Root Extract that revitalizes and improves skin health and Vitamins A, C, E and B5 to prevent premature aging."

Price:
   Sachet (8g) - P 20.00 ($ 0.49)
   Tube (95g) - P 199.00 ($ 4.88)



"It is a solution that is effective in removing whiteheads and blackheads and eliminates deep-seated dirt, excess oil and other impurities. It minimizes pores and excess oil on the nose."


Active ingredients: Mulberry Root Extract, Panax Ginseng Root Extract, Aloe Vera Leaf Extract, Viatmins A, C, E.


Price:
   Sachet (3.5g) - P 17.00 ($ 0.42)
   Tube (50g) - P 189.00 ($ 4.63)


I used this 4 times during this 7 day experience. According to the instructions, you can use it 2-4 times a week. The whitening pack is good for 3 uses while the nose pack is, I think, for 6 uses. My sachet is not yet empty though I already used it for 4 days. The scent is okay.





At first, I had a hard time applying the cream 'cause I don't know how thick it should be, plus it is sticky and dries quite fast.




Haha. This is me with the mask! :D
I can't smile!  LOL





While it's on my face, I felt a slight cooling effect which I find so relaxing.

Love it!

I let it stay for 15 mins, just like what it says in the instructions.





After peeling it off, my skin feels a little bit itchy. Maybe because I didn't pulled it gently. Haha. Okay my fault!


This is the mask! IKR, looks like a halloween mask! HAHA Gross!
I feel that my pores were cleansed and my skin became softer, cleaner and tighter. But honestly, I think it wasn't able to remove any blackheads or whiteheads. What I love about it is that it really relaxed my skin.

Aqua Moisturizing Cream




"A water-base moisturizer refined by Bio-Nanotechnology, making it more potent, giving it a more radiant and fair complexion.

It revitalizes and improves skin condition, protects skin against cellular damage and premature aging, maintains elasticity and firmness of the skin and leaves a cool and refreshing feeling. iWhite Aqua Moistruzing Cream is ideal for all skin types."

Active ingredients: 

Mulberry root extract - contains arbutin which inhibits melanin production; soothing even in high concentrations; reduces uneven skin tone and appearance of dark spots; helps in cell regeneration

Panax ginseng root extract - reduces wrinkles and refines skin; promotes skin regeneration; helps remove scars

Green tea - contains vitamins for skin regeneration, strengthening and repair; contains anti-bacterial agents that help prevent acne formation


Price:

   Sachet (6g) - P 20.00 ($ 0.49)

   Tube (50g) - P 169.00 ($ 4.14)

I used it twice a day, after bath and before going to bed. This moisturizer really caught my eyes! Why? Because it is water-based!


















Awhile ago I said that the mask made my skin itchy, but when I applied the Aqua Moisturizing Cream, the itchiness was gone. Maybe that's why they're perfect for each other.

I like its mild scent and the cool feeling. Unlike other creams, it is not greasy, oily and sticky, but still, it was able to moisturize my skin. And that's the reason why I love it!



Asking if this set is effective?


My skin became brighter and even toned. The scars lightened and my acne lessened.

Plus:
The price is very affordable.
It is effective. Yes!
It is easy to purchase (available in Mercury and Watsons).

Rate: 9/10

and YES, I am willing to purchase again, and I also want to try their other products, the facial wash and cream. :)

Product Review: iWhite Korea Aqua Moisturizing Cream

My iWhite Korea experience hasn't stopped yet! This time, I'm going to make a review on a product that is new to my skin. Hello iWhite Korea Aqua Moisturizing Cream! :)

I'm really not fond of using moisturizers because they make my face oily that's why I am really excited to try this one because it is my first time to use a water-based moisturizer. And again, iWhite Korea proved its affordability because it is really cheap just like their other products. The sachet costs 20 pesos (around .50 dollars) each while the tube is for only 169 pesos (around 4 dollars)! :)






 Product Description


A water-base moisturizer refined by Bio-Nanotechnology, making it more potent, giving it a more radiant and fair complexion.

It revitalizes and improves skin condition, protects skin against cellular damage and premature aging, maintains elasticity and firmness of the skin and leaves a cool and refreshing feeling. iWhite Aqua Moistruzing Cream is ideal for all skin types.



Active ingredients

Mulberry root extract
Has been found to lighten age spots and uneven skin tone. Has been postulated to promote hair growth and have antioxidant and anti-septic properties. 

Panax ginseng root extract
When applied to the skin, Panax Ginseng may increase the production of collagen. Collagen makes up most of the connective tissues that support the skin. The production of collagen is known to decrease with age. Therefore, the topical use of Panax Ginseng may help to reduce wrinkles and age lines.

Green tea
It contains vitamins for skin regeneration, strengthening and repair; contains anti-bacterial agents that help prevent acne formation





Packaging


The packaging is very simple. The squeeze - type tube is perfect if you want to bring the product when travelling. The sachet is easy to open, but not resealable. Both packaging contains the important information of the product.





My Experience


It is recommended to use the Aqua Moisturizing Cream after the Whitening Peel Off Mask and that's what I did. I think they're the perfect pair! The cream is not sticky and oily because it is water-based. As soon as I've applied it to my face it magically transforms into beads of water which is easily absorbed by my skin. It also helped remove the sediments left by the peel off mask. 





 My Verdict


I actually love the result on my skin! My face feels really light, like I haven't used a moisturizer at all! I recommend this product to those who have oily skin like me. This is the perfect moisturizer for you! :) My face felt moisturized the whole day. (no joke!) I rate this product 9/10. Its a must have! :)

Product Review: iWhite Korea’s GlutaBerry White Soap



Packaging:

It comes in a black box with pink designs. I think it is eye-catching because most glutathione soaps are packaged in white boxes. Net weight is 90 grams as packed.

Price:
Based on Watsons, it is sold for only P 89. I consider it more affordable compared to other glutathione soaps.

What it promises:

“iWhite Korea GlutaBerry White Soap is formulated with natural antioxidants and skin lightening agents that protect skin against cellular damage and premature aging and giving it a healthy and fair complexion."

Active Ingredients:

Glutathione – essential body chemical that acts as a natural antioxidants and detoxifying agent that protects your skin from premature aging giving it a whiter and more radiant complexion.

Mulberry extract – from the root of white mulberry with natural lightening agent that inhibits melanin production for an even-toned complexion.

Kojic acid – whitens your skin and prevents acne-causing bacteria, making skin forever smooth.

Vitamin E – protects your skin from free radicals for a younger looking skin.



I use this soap as my all over body soap. I love its floral scent, mild and refreshing! Three hours after I took a bath, I can still smell it (no exaggeration, swear!). I can’t say if it is really effective in skin whitening ‘cause I am just using it for a week. However, I am now experiencing mild peeling, maybe because of the Kojc Acid that it contains. Unlike other whitening soaps, it is not itchy on my skin.

I would definitely recommend this soap to you guys! :)

THUMBS UP!
