Review : Naruko Aqua Cubic Jelly Lotion EX

Product Description

This lotion is unique for its rich texture. It instantly turns into liquid after application, pumping moisture and providing long-lasting hydration to the skin. Skin is softened and hydrated with a soothing, refined texture.

Benefits: Instantly hydrates, softens, and soothes dry skin.

I stumble upon Naruko Aqua Cubic Jelly Lotion EX while shopping in JB late last year and have been using this on an on-off basis because the effect isn't too impressive. Even though Naruko products are affordable, but not all work particular well on my skin or perhaps the range that I picked is not suitable for my skin type.

Naruko Aqua Cubic Jelly Lotion EX has a gelly-lotion texture with a heavy rose scent that dispenses via a pump nozzle. When I use it as a lotion mask either with 5 cotton pads over my skin or soaked in paper capsule masks and layered on my skin, there isn't any spectacular improvement after each treatment.

I move on to using it as a lotion, after cleansing and again, it disappoints in not providing that much needed hydration to my skin. My skin becomes dehydrated, flaky and rough, after sleeping in an air-conditioned room. Perhaps I have too much expectation from this product.

While it seems to drench the skin with moisture, it doesn't seem to penetrate deeply into the skin to provide long lasting moisture that is much craved after, from dehydrated skin. It is a medicore product, for normal daily maintenance. At times, it also irritates my skin, especially at the sides of my nose, making it red, raw and dry.
