Oh! Hello Blog-O-World!
I've been in major hiatus for a couple of weeks. Main reason, I've been so busy at work and I felt like sleeping all day if I have a chance. But after all this time, I've missed writing reviews and posting blogs. Now is my chance to redeem myself and I have a lot of reviews coming up in the next few days.
When I'm writing reviews, I always make sure that I have tested the product for quite a while and posting it on my blog means that I stand my ground on what I thought about the product which is if recommend it or not.
I've received an email from EZSHOP Asia last February that they are interested on sending me a product for review and couple of days later, I received a quite interesting item.
Before anything else, although this was sent to me for review, all my thoughts on this product is based on my personal experience. I've tested this for 1 month so I could give you my honest opinion.
Brand: WII
Product Name: aFgF Hydrating Lotion
Shade: Only has one shade
Claims: Sun protector to prevent pigmentation and gives you more moisturized and be protected from other harmful elements that can damage your skin.
Where to buy: http://www.ezshop.asia/
Packaging is simple. It comes in a pump which is something that I appreciate. At first, the pump was not working. No product was coming out so I had to open the actual cap and tried to shake it which I'm not sure why, but it actually worked. One downside of box that it comes with is that it does not give an intensive description on what this product do so I had to look for it online (thank you Ms. Janina for the link :).

Now for the actual product. Based on their website, it claims that this product will moisturize your skin. Well I don't think that it provides that moisture that I wanted. I have oily skin but I tend to get dry patches around my cheek and nose. It does accentuate dry patches so you have to use a moisturizer before applying this.
After trying this for a month as my makeup base, I noticed that I was not breaking out. Well, my skin is not sensitive at all but during the time of the month (aka period - you know what I'm talking about), I always get A pimple somewhere in my face, mostly on the forehead. I did not get any pimples or bumps during the time of using this product which is AMAZING.
It does claim that your eye bags would disappear but due to my work, I did not see any difference. I don't have wrinkles, YET, so I can't say anything about the wrinkle improvement aspect of the product. I did notice that it lightens my dark spots so I need to use this continuously to check if it would help on fading those dark spots.
One downside of the product is that it is too light on my skin. I do use a foundation or BB cream on top but if you use this alone, you have to add a bit of bronzer to warm up your skin. If you have a deeper skin color, I don't think that this would work as a makeup base since it is too light and based on their website, it comes in only one shade.
Overall, I actually think that this is an underrated product that you should try. It is a bit pricey (1200php) but I think they do have sales from time to time. You may look up their website and they have tons of beauty and non beauty product that you might be interested in.
Stay Awesome,
