[JOLSE] Beauty of Joseon Dynasty Cream: First Impression

Hello beauties!

This product is highly raved by beauty bloggers so I'm pretty excited to try this out and see what is the hype about.

Do take note that this is only a first impression because I've only received this product 2 days ago.

  • The concentrated cream texture conveys ample moisture and nutrition to the skin.

Product description credits to Jolse

SIZE:
50ml

HOW TO USE:
Take an appropriate amount and spread smoothly.

INGREDIENTS LIST:
You can refer here

PACKAGING:




The product comes in a white cardboard box with black calligraphy. Clean, yet elegant. All was writtten in Korean, though.
Inside the box, there is a glass jar containing 50ml of product. Look at that tissue paper tied together with a straw, isn't it gorgeous? 😍
It has a twist-able silver lid and you can also find another inner lid inside in order to keep the product fresh. There's a cute little spatula included too for hygiene purposes.

REVIEW:




When I took a peek inside the jar, I noticed that the product is not filled to the top. I'm okay with that though.
The consistency of the cream is a bit like gel but more on the thicker side and is white in colour. It's quite sticky/stringy, to be honest but thankfully, it didn't leave any tacky residue onto my skin. The scent is not too overwhelming but do take note that it has a light herbal scent to it. One of the ingredients listed is Panax Ginseng, so that explains why.
When I first applied it onto my skin, it felt very cooling and soothing at the same time. After letting the product to absorb onto my skin, there's a slight sheen which made my skin looks glowy. I can safely said that it also provide enough hydration for my skin, just a pea-sized will do, so yay!

PROS:
Beautiful packaging
There's a spatula provided
Gave a glow to my skinLightweight
Moisturizing
Hydrating
Skin felt soft and smooth

CONS:
A breakable glass jar
Slight herbal scent

OVERALL:
A good moisturizer during night time and a good base makeup during the day time to keep your skin moisturized and hydrated so that your makeup would not look patchy.

RATING:
8/10 (I am still yet to see the long-term effects.)

WHERE TO BUY:
You can purchase it at Jolse.com for USD17.85

PACKAGING:




This product does not come with any box or plastic wrapping. It only comes with a tub itself and sealed with a sticker. The colour of the tub is so pretty, a pastel peach/pink colour decorated with flowers with a black twist-off cap.


There's an inner lid inside to keep the product fresh.

FIRST IMPRESSION:




It has a light, whipping cream-like texture and smells amazing. If you don't like floral smell, then this isn't for you. It didn't feel heavy on my skin. What I notice was that my skin felt soft and smooth after usage and it didn't long for it to absorb, too.



This firming cream is suitable for those who want to prevent stretch marks, sagging skin and also the loss of skin elasticity.

Floral smell
Huge tub

WHERE TO BUY:

I think this product is being discontinued since most of the websites that I checked are no longer selling this product, as in "sold out", so I'm not quite sure on that.

Until my next post!
