Introducing the Verikos Collagen Tightening Cream with Hydrolyzed Collagen. Collagen is a protein the found in the skin, hair and bone. Collagen maintains the moisture of the skin and controls elasticity.
Starting off with the packaging, this product is in a pretty cream colored jar with a silver lid. It feels weighty and sturdy that if you drop it on a hard wood floor or cement, I don't think it will break (don't quote me on that one because I won't try and drop mine just to test this theory out). I'm a sucker for packaging and even if this is particularly simple I really love it.
In this full sized jar, it contains 75ml of product and it retails at GMarket (a Korean online store that ships internationally) for $25. Pretty good price for the amount of product that you get.
This product smells wonderful! It smells citrus-y: think sugar and freshly squeezed lemons. I tried looking at the ingredient list for what makes it smell like that and I saw that one component is Citrus Paradisi (Grapefruit) Seed Oil. Come to think of it, the scent also reminds me of my Tony Moly Lemon Seed Massage Cream.
In the jar it looks like a yellow transluscent ointment, the texture however, is gel-like. This product sinks into the skin wonderfully and leaves it feeling moisturized without the stickiness or greasiness that other moisturizers does. A little goes a long way with this product. I only dip a finger into the jar and a small amount of product sticks to it and I apply it to half of my face. It takes me two finger dips to cover my whole face!
I got such amazing result with this product. When I woke up the next morning the first time I tried this product out, my skin felt so fresh, nicely moisturized and supple. It truly is a tightening cream since the area under my eyes which is usually baggy and puffy even with adequate rest was not as bad as usual. There weren't any puffiness and it was also brighter than usual. Waking up with nice skin wasn't just a dream anymore, it became a reality. I remember using the Tony Moly Egg Pore Tightening Pack a couple of months back and it has the same results, only more long lasting.
I think I found my Holy Grail moisturizing cream. It has such wonderful effects on my skin and from all the skin care products I have tried so far, this is the best. My skin hasn't been dry since I started using it. My skin also became softer, smoother and brighter. I have hyperpigmentation from my recent breakout andthey usually go away after a month or two but since using this product I have noticed that they have been significantly lighter. My skin tone in general became more youthful.
I cannot rave enough about this product since I started using it. Yep, I would definitely repurchase this product even if the shipping fee would cost me a lot. So far, the only site I found that ships this product internationally is GMarket.
This is great for sensitive skin and I believe it has the 5-free formula (No paraben, talc, artificial dye, synthetic perfume, alcohol). I highly recommend this for those with dry skin and those who have wrinkles or want to prevent them.
