Cure Natural Aqua Gel

I've lately been trying to cut down on makeup spending and shifted to investing on skin care products instead. I believe that by having good skin, you'll have better looking makeup! I have also noticed that I've been gravitating towards Asian makeup and skincare brands these past few months. When my obsession with makeup started I was all about mainstream Western cosmetics but I've come to the realization that sometimes Asian brands just work better on Asian people.
The consistency of this Japanese gel exfoliator is quite runny and slippery. This product is also safe to use (90% water and no alcohol) on other parts of the body aside from the face - I use this on my neck, elbows and knees. Cure claims to have no alcohol in this product but for some reason it smells a bit like rubbing alcohol.
It instantly removes all the unwanted dead skin cells and leaves the skin feeling squeaky clean and more supple. I hardly ever say this about skin care products but this is definitely holy grail for me. It also works wonders on the dry flaky areas that I sometimes get on my forehead and around my nose that I wanna get rid of immediately before applying a base like foundation.
Despite the price (PHP 1,500) it has worked effectively on my skin and I would definitely repurchase this. I only use this twice a week and one pump is good enough for my entire face - so it's bound to last long. 


Origins
Cure is a product of Japan. It has been selling well in the market for the past 7 years and was ranked the No. 1 best seller across Japan in 2005, 2006 and No. 2 in 2007. Cure has created a record-breaking, 1 bottle sold every 20 seconds. The remarkable result is affirmation that "Cure Works"

What is Cure?
Cure Natural Aqua Gel is a gentle and natural exfoliating gel that removes dead skin effectively without causing undue stress to the skin/ Unlike chemical peels which use strong acid, Cure is very gentle on the skin and only removes the unwanted dead skin. It does not dry or thin your skin which causes your skin to be vulnerable to sunlight.

Properties of Cure
Made of 90% revitalized hydrogen water and natural plant extracts of aloe vera, gingko and rosemary. Contains no preservatives, fragrance, artificial colorings and alcohol. 

How to Use Cure
1. Wash your face with a cleanser and pat dry.
2. Pump a small amount of Cure to be applied on the desired area. Leave it on the skin for a few seconds for Cure to react with the dead skin cells.
3. Gently massage in a circular motion for 30 seconds to 1 minute. The gel will turn into milky liquid and white particles of dead skin cells can be seen as they are lifted off the skin.
4. Rinse well with water, then apply moisturizer.

    1. I suggest trying out a sample though first! I researched a bit on the product and found out that some people don't find it effective on them!
