Innisfree green tea balancing kit review năm 2024

Innisfree Green Tea Balancing range is my favourite daytime skincare especially during work. Working in an office environment, the air conditioner can be drying for your skin.

The Green Tea Balancing range is made for combination skin, and is suitable for hot and humid climates. I do not recommend this for cold climates, as it does not sufficiently moisturise (skin feels tight after 4 hours).

  My First Impressions

  When you apply it on your face, you will experience the sweet smell of green tea and the process is very relaxing. A transparent liquid, which has a slightly watery texture.

  • Big bottle at 200ml.

Pros- Innisfree Green Tea Balancing Skin

• Absorbs well, moisturises as a thin layer on the skin.
• Suitable for Singapore’s humidity as you can’t apply too many layers, if not you’re be swimming in sweat.
• Good value for a big bottle of 200ml
• 5 free system
• Doesn’t break out of my sensitive skin
• Improves my complexion (less pimples/blackheads)

Cons

• Can’t think of any, except the perfume smell may be overwhelming if you use the Balancing skin, lotion and cream.
• Not moisturising enough for winter.

Overall

• Rating: 3/5
• Rating: 5 = HG status, I will repurchase and highly recommend this, try it!
• Rating: 4 = Very impressed by this product.

  My First Impressions

  Like the Green Tea Skin, there is a strong sweet smell of Green Tea. It is a white opaque lotion, thicker in texture than the ‘Skin’

  Pros- Innisfree Green Tea Balancing Lotion

  • The lotion absorbs well and is a thin moisturiser.
  • For my combination skin, I prefer to use a lotion instead of cream for daytime skincare in Singapore. I previously used the Innisfree Green Tea Fresh Cream during the day for 1 week, I was sweating profusely, much more than usual. I switched back to just the Skin+Lotion, and there was no more intense sweating.
  • Good value for 160ml
  • 5 free system
  • Doesn’t break out of my sensitive skin
  • Improves my complexion (less pimples/blackheads)

  Cons

  • None, except the smell may be too overwhelming. There is fragrance listed in the ingredients.

It is not moisturising enough for an air conditioned environment.
