This cream is created for oily skin. My skin not fat, but combined, is fat sites: forehead, nose. Therefore it can help me. Especially as ahead a warm season when oily skin becomes even more fatter. It would be very good if I managed to find the matting means eliminating a greasy luster and controlling a salootdeleniye.
Cucumber – the known cosmetic component. I adore its smell. I like cucumber lotions, all masks. This aroma pleasantly invigorates, refreshes, it for me – a symbol of spring, awakening. Well, there will be enough hopes. Practice time has come.
Cream in a standard tube
White and clean, with pleasant bright green design. Volume is 75 ml.
The tube promises that inside absolute natural cucumber extract.
What else in structure? There is a list:
The beginning of the list not really impresses. Here only emulsifiers and different bases. But the second half of the list of ingredients was pleasant to me. Among what is necessary: sunflower oil, the hydrogenated castor oil, a phytoconcentrate of seeds of parsley, vitamin E, citric acid.
I want to note that cream contains zinc oxide - it is the sun-protection filter. For day cream – a good element. Well, and the traditional preservatives beginning with Methyl.
Aroma
So, long-awaited smell of a fresh cucumber. It is!!! Hurrah, is that I also wanted and that I expected from cucumber cream. Even under the soldered lid the fresh cucumber is felt.
I try
It is time to open! Oops – badly opened. The first disappointment.
Farther even more awfully. Inside there is such liquid! The small drop spread as water.
Perhaps, quite so all also thought. That is, there are such cucumber body lotions or persons – liquid as a milk. But for a tube it is too liquid consistence. And, it seems, not really uniform – is some bubbles and lumps.
Though color pleasant – greenish-yellowish. As fresh florets. And aroma pleasant, I will repeat, it is a fresh cucumber without any impurity and additional notes. The smell obviously turned out at the producer.
It is distributed on skin too very strange, with some flakes. Also it is not absorbed the first seconds in general.
After liquid dries up a little, I try to distribute still, there is a cream texture, leaving stains.
And after absorption – the fact that it is impossible to transfer to photos. It is stickiness. Skin really becomes opaque, it is the fact, but also becomes also very sticky! To it fingers, pieces of paper, fabrics stick. Whether the dullness with stickiness is necessary to me, here I think? …
Tried to look how cream behaves on the fat site, on a forehead.
Everything, the same repeated: at first some flakes, and then stickiness.
But I have to be fair. At all strangeness of texture, cream executed the functions. It eliminated a greasy luster, leveled tone of the person, improved appearance of skin. Spots and roughnesses really left! That is, in principle, thing quite good.
But I cannot get used to liquid consistence. Tried to shake up somehow. Thought that, maybe, cream was just divided into an emulsion and water. But is not present – it did not help, it really inside such liquid all.
I think, packing in the form of a tube – at all not for such liquid textures. To control amount of the squeezed-out cream it is unreal, it flows also all. For time it is possible and accidental to pour out all contents. Here the bottle with a pomp or the batcher is necessary. Kind of to prompt it to the producer. Though, probably, then cream will be more expensive.
