Step 1 – Cleanse

‘Double cleanse’ is Shiseido’s cleansing ritual, the first cleanse removes make-up, and the second cleanse removes dirt, pollution and impurities. IBUKI Gentle Cleanser is a extra gentle cleanser that lathers quickly into a rich foam to remove impurities and harmful excess sebum without stripping away skin’s essential moisture. Skin feels refreshed, and silky smooth to the touch.

Me and my mom loved this cleanser. For using along with my Pebblesonic device, I like this cleanser. What I noticed about this is that – it’s very gentle on skin. I have a sensitive skin and this never gave breakouts to me. It’s not effective in removing makeup on the face. So before using this, make sure you have taken off your makeup using a proper makeup remover. Apply a small amount to the fingers or your cleansing brush/device and massage in circular motions onto skin. Lather and rinse. It quickly lathers into a rich foam, remove dirt and cleanses the skin without stripping away skin’s essential moisture. It has a pleasant fragrance. Skin feels silky smooth and soft after washing face using this.

This product is also formulated without any parabens, sulphates or Phthalates. Smooth over face after cleansing. Well, This is one product I am disappointed with- from this range. It made my skin very oily. It was impossible to apply it during day time because of that reason. Too much shine and oily face – though I have a combination skin. So, I feel this is not for my skin type. Smooth over face after cleansing. Also, fragrance of this is very strong! and I don’t like alcohol based toners. It leaves a tacky, oily feeling to the skin. I don’t recommend this. My mom with oily skin disliked it as well.

Packaging wise, I find them to be very heavy and bulky – not travel friendly at all. USD$24.00 for 2.5 oz/ 75 mL of product.

I mainly used this cream on my under eye area before applying a concealer. Gently pat this cream on the under eye area. Concealer glides on easily and is easy to blend as well. Doesn’t crease the concealer etc.

Shiseido claim that this soothing eye cream supports cells’ natural resistance to internal and external aggressors. Shiseido’s exclusive inner-derm light-enhancing powder reflects red light to increase vibrancy and counteract darkness creating brighter, more youthful-looking eyes.

I didn’t notice any difference on dark circle reduction. But, My concealer was easier to blend and apply and as it’s non greasy and hydrating.  Now, if you ask me – is it hydrating enough for dry under eye area or for harsh winter months. my answer is no. This product is totally not worth your money. For colder months, I prefer a thick eye cream.

It’s good  if you are someone who don’t have extremely dry under eyes and not face any major dark circle issue..If you want a cream that wears well under concealer- go for it. Also, if you have deep-set wrinkles and sagging of eyes – this is not the right product for you.

it is formulated WITHOUT Parabens, Sulfates & Phthalates. Full list of ingredients below

-PhytoResist Complex: Helps protect surface cells from environmental stressors.
-Vitamin E Acetate and Houttuynia Cordata Extract: Minimize puffiness and support natural cellular metabolism.
-Lempuyang Extract: Diminishes the appearance of circles and dullness.
-Inner-Derm Light Enhancing Powder: Reflects red light to increase vibrancy and counteract darkness.

Smooth the moisturizer all over face after cleansing and softening. As it has SPF – it meant for the day time. Now, This is a good moisturizer with spf for morning use. It’s best for summer months. No significant improvement on pores or blemishes as it claims. But, It’s a great moisturizer that hydrates skin. After washing face using IBUKI gentle cleanser, this can be applied. my mom like it. But, It didn’t suit my sensitive skin. I got breakouts when I tried it and I stopped using it. It’s consistency is light weight, get absorbed by skin pretty quick too. But, as I said – not my favorite. I would not recommend this to you if you have sensitive or acne prone skin.

Overall, these products are quite over hyped. Apart from cleanser – other products are really not worth it’s price. There are better products in the market. Also, a great tip in buying skincare line that suits your skin  -Always check the ingredient list. Make sure there are no harmful chemicals.

I do love taking care of my skin, starting from cleansing, toning, essence, serum, moisturizing, sunscreen and masking every few days, I do all and see the quality of my skin has improved alot over time. I have been a long time fan of Shiseido Eudermine lotion which I am planning to review on my blog too. Being in my thirties now, this range has been on my radar for some time and after reading your review, I am going to check this out.

Shiseido skincare has been on my wishlist for so long. I am good with my skin care and enjoy all extra steps to get a clear and brighter complexion. As this range is particularly for late twenties and early thirties, it’s right up my alley. I need to check these out. Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Beautiful photos too.
