Skin Watchers Beauty Products


Hello Everyone!

Those of you that know me well know I try rather hard to look after my skin - it's quite rebellious and often has its own ideas about what it's going to do! I have combination/oily skin which can lead to blocked pores and a just a general icky feeling after a long day - even more so if I've been wearing a lot of make-up. I recently came across the company Skin Watchers on a Korean Beauty group on Facebook and took a look at their website - everything looked so good and professional! I was given the opportunity to try out some of the products from the range and I'm so, SO glad I did as I've found a new favourite brand!


Here are all the products I tried - Skin Watchers is based in South Korea so the packaging is in both Korean and English which I find brilliant! I can't read Korean (yet, it's on my list!) so this is very helpful! Check out the beautiful logo and very stylish packaging for the products. I'm still keeping everything in the boxes as I like them so much - they look great on a shelf together!


This is an Aloe Vera soothing gel - this is one of my favourites! Look at the pretty green packaging, it's a very big tube that's easy to dispense the product from, the instructions for use are also on the back of the tube which is handy. You can also put the tube in the fridge for a cooling effect too! I think this would be fantastic on a hot day in the summer.


The gel itself is clear (Fantastic! No added colourings!) It smells very fresh and of aloe. As a gel it's quite thick but its absorbed very easily and a little goes a very long way - I can use a small pea sized amount for both my face and neck! I felt this gel left my skin feeling very soft, supple and soothed after removing make up after application.


Ceramizing Essence Toner - this toner is great, its very easy to apply and left my skin feeling very hydrated.


The scent of this was very clean and fresh, again it was easily absorbed and didn't make my skin feel clogged or heavy.


Now this is something I've never, ever seen before! It's an Enzyme Powder Wash - rather than a liquid this comes in a bottle but it's powdered!


 All you need is a little amount of the powder, add a little bit of water and it foams up to make this very luxurious wash - I was really, really impressed with this as it left my skin still feeling soft but squeaky clean as well. I found it very easy to use and even if you pour out to much powder you can put it back into the bottle which you can't with a normal liquid. I would definitely purchase this again.


Galactomytes Whitening Esscense - This is a lovely big bottle with a dropper for measure application - I'm not entirely sure on the application on this as the instructions are in Korean - but from the website I worked out that a couple of drops should be applied after cleansing and toning skin. 


The essence contains a lot of vitamins and also brings elasticity to the skin. I found this left my skin looking brighter, healthier and spongy - It didn't leave my skin feeling sticky or oily which is fantastic.


This is one of the set of Green Snail Intensive products - I've never tried any snail products before, but have friends that swear by them. I really love the cute little jar that this came in.


Inside the box was the jar of cream - it has a little stopper to make sure that the cream doesn't leak in transport/keep it fresh.


I love this cream and I'd totally buy this again too, it's very thick, smells lovely and is absorbed so easily! I was really impressed by that as it's such a thick cream - and a little goes a long, long way. This left my skin feel fabulous!


This is the second in the Green Snail Intensive set - an emulsion.


I love the design for this bottle, it makes dispensing the emulsion very easy. This is to be used after cleansing and a toner/essence.


The scent of this was lovely- it's not over powering and is somewhere between being a clean scent and a light floral. This was quite thick, but again like the other Skin Watchers products was absorbed very quickly. It left my skin feeling super soft and light.


This was the third in the Green Snail Intensive set - a Toner. This was another of my favourites and I will most likely replace it when it runs out. Again this utilises a useful pump bottle - its really sturdy and feels very expensive! Like the rest of the range this had a very pleasant scent which wasn't over powering at all.

This toner is to be used after cleansing, it's a clear runny liquid and whole pump covered my whole face, you can see here how smooth and soft my skin looks - I thought it left it looking brighter too!



Check out this Natural Deep Cleansing oil! I've always been a little dubious about using oil cleansers on my skin what with it already being oily, but the packaging says you can use a regular cleaner after this for an extra fresh feeling.


Look how pretty this colour is! All you need is a small amount to clean skin.


This is a very runny oil - it smells very fruity and cleans excellently - I didn't find I needed and extra cleanser afterwards as it didn't make my skin feel any oiler than normal. I really rather like this one too and will likely buy another.


Skin Watchers Original Facial Oil - this was another that didn't have english instructions, but I tried it out in the same way I did with the Galactomyces Essence. This bottle too has the helpful little dropper.


This is quite a liquid oil, my skin absorbed it very quickly and left my skin very soft. It has quite a lovely fruity scent.


UV Success Sun Block - SPF50+/PA+++ - I adore this! I've been trying to find a suncream to wear under my makeup for a very long time - everything I've tried has felt heavy and greasy - I also burn very easily so it was something I really needed! This comes in a handy bag sized tube and recommends using after cleansing before applying makeup. 


This is a very thick cream which had me a little worried incase it was going to be like the others I had tried - I was pleasantly surprised to find it was very easily absorbed, didn't feel sticky/greasy or heavy and actually made my foundation easier to apply! It had a very nice light scent as well!


Oh my gosh, this whitening water drop is so much fun to use! I've never tried anything quite like this before - essentially this cream is for brightening and hydrating your skin by forming water drops to lock in moisture!


This came out as a relatively thick cream but the second I started to rub it in it turned into the picture on the right - You can actually see the little water droplets! 
  

Like the rest of the Skin Watchers products this was absorbed very quickly and you can see in the picture my skin looks brighter, so soft and moisturised! I'm very impressed with this too!

I really, REALLY love this range and I'll definitely be re-purchasing some of the above. My favourites have to be the Green Snail Intensive, the Enzyme Powder Wash and the Soothing Aloe Gel. Skin Watchers thrive on knowing that their products are loved and I can see why people love them!
