good things must share! - hada labo review



fr3b (now known as the sample store) asked if i wanna try out hada labo products for FREE
and of course i immediately agreed!


"hada" in japanese means skin and "labo" is simply the short for laboratory
"skin laboratory" (hada labo) is a skincare line from japan
and to emphasize simplicity in its skincare process
colorant, fragrance, mineral oil and other addictives that will burden ur skin are removed from all its products!
so its suitable even for sensitive skin like mine~

and so..
i receoved my free products in a plain simple box like this!


the products are nicely wrapped as well


no fancy packaging just simple white bottle and tube
i have gotten 2 products from the super hyaluronic acid (SHA) hydrating range~
1 gram of hyaluronic acid can retain up to 6 litres of water
hada labo super hyaluronic acid can hold twice the amount~
its no wonder their tag line:
"one drop locks up an ocean"


first i have got SHA hydrating face wash~


1. lather with water to foam up the cleanser
2. massage lightly onto face in a circular motion
3. rinse with warm water

and tada!

i like it that it has no fragrance
i like it that it doesnt make my skin feel tight
means it doesnt dry up my skin~
i like it that it makes my skin feels clean and fresh and comfortable~


the second sponsored product is their best seller
SHA hydrating lotion!



it was also recommended by 女人我最大



1 sold every 4 seconds in japan!
japan has got countless beauty and skincare products
and if it can even get so popular in japan
it must be really good!
and i cant wait to try~
here's a tvc in japan



1. 3-4 drops onto palm
2. lightly pat onto face until fully absorbed
(dun have to pat so hard as the girl in the video thats just exaggerating! haha)

instructions say that the lotion is to be used daily morning and night
but i feel that it requires too much time to pat the lotion until absorbed
u can only do it when you have like 5-8mins!
the texture of the lotion changes from wet -> sticky -> smooth!
as i am always rushing in the morning
i only use it at night and have to be extremely patient haha =X
but but the results are good!
initially i thought it might be too nourishing for ppl with oily skin
as my nose gets (feels) abit oily
however i dun get any new breakouts from it
and the old breakouts didnt get worse as well
the skin really got the 'boing boing' feeling like the girl in the tvc =)
guess the only thing i didnt like was the sticky/heavy texture
takes alot of time to get absorbed and the skin feels light again!
