REVIEW: Innisfree No Sebum Powder Cream

Good day beautiful friends. I'm back with another review. This is the Innisfree No Sebum Mineral Powder. I was pretty curious about this because as you all know I've been a big fan of their powder version. This I believe is the cream version. Let's continue this review then.

What's it about?
This is the famous No Sebum Mineral Powder Cream.  This cream blends onto the skin so easily leaving a matte finish that feels so smooth and soft. Its main purpose is to minimize the appearance of sebum on the skin making our makeup last all day long. Also, this powder cream has 3 basic functions like a moisturizer, primer and sebum controller all rolled into one.

* My Personal Photos of the Product*
The product comes with a mini spatula.

The expiry date is indicated at the back of the tub.









I intentionally draw a line here to make sure I don't forget where I put the product.

Notice the left side. That's how the product looks when it's spread.

Viola. The product is fully absorbed in the skin.

After, the left side of my hand feels smoother and softer. The pores and lines of my hand tend to look less visible.

KEY INGREDIENTS
* Green Tea Extracts - rich in antioxidants and amino acids that make the skin young and healthy
*Peppermint Leaves Extracts - cools down the skin. has anti-bacterial properties that heal and prevent future breakouts

*More Product Details*
SIZE: It is 25 g.
PACKAGING: The product comes in a mint colored plastic tub. It also comes with a small spatula. Labels about the product are written in English on the cover.
TEXTURE: It feels very smooth and quite thick which is similar to a whipped cream consistency. Once you put this on the skin,  it turns into this powder-like texture and just melts into the skin giving it a matte look.
SCENT: It has this slight hint of freshness ( a combination of citrus and floral scent together) which is very appealing to me. It smells relaxing and soothing at the same time.


My Overall Thoughts
Well, I'd say I'm not totally blown away with this product here as I have high hopes of using this one.  About the good points first, let me enumerate them one by one. First, it is effective as it claims to really reduce oiliness especially on T-zone area. I only need to do minimal touch ups which is a pretty good already. Second, it also helps in making the face smoother. My pores  looks smaller in some ways. Third, it did moisturize my face upon application.  

Now for the bad points, I'm not totally sure if it does what it claims to be a good moisturizer, primer and sebum controller all in one go. Maybe it does work well for young skin but not for matured skin.  Next, I did test this out with my hubby's skin. He has oily skin type. Unfortunately, it didn't help him minimize his oily T-zone area. This isn't good for oily skin type I believe.  Lastly, I tried using this over my foundation but it was messy and made my face oilier if that makes sense. I figured this should sit under makeup more comfortably. :)

That's about it for me. Hope you find this helpful. How about you guys? What primer are you into these days? Let's share some good handful ideas. See you in my next review. Always stay inspired.
