Innisfree orchid enriched cream
This cream is sold separately for £24.09 (here). You can get this cream in two other versions: "Orchid gel cream" and "Orchid intense cream". This cream is to be used as the last step of your skincare routine. Although everyone's skin is individual and unique, just for reference my skin is dry,sensitive, red and acne prone.
Ingredient
Water, Cyclopentasiloxane, Propanediol, Glycerin, Cyclohexasiloxane, PEG-10 Dimethicone, Squalane, Arbutin, Phenyl Trimethicone, Disteardimonium Hectorite, Adenosine, Orchid Extract, Tangerine Peel Extract, The green Tea Extract, Prickly Pear Extract, Camellia Leaf Extract, Pea Extract, 1,2-Hexanediol, Dimethicone, Dimethicone/Phenyl Vinyl Dimethicone Crosspolymer, Lauryl PEG-9 Polydimethylsiloxyethyl Dimethicone, Sodium Chloride, Ethylhexylglycerin, Kaolin, Polysilicone-11, Disodium EDTA, Fragrance (Jeju Orchid Extract 250mg)
As you an see most of the ingredients are safe with just a few exceptions such as fragrance. So if your skin is extremely sensitive then i am afraid this might not be for you. However on a side note my skin is pretty sensitive and yet i got no reaction.~Thank god!
This cream applies very well without leaving any cast and stickiness. For dry skin it is very hydrating. But if you personally need extreme hydration then the "Orchid intense cream" is the best for you. My skin is pretty dry but not extremely dry so this cream is moisturising enough. It does have a slight scent but it's pretty normal for innisfree products to have a herbally scent and this is no exception (Fragrance is in the list above ^)
Rating: For my skin it is 4.1/5 because it is very moisturising but in humid environment it sometimes feels a bit sticky.
This serum is sold separately for ~£16(
here) or from Innisfree's own website for £21.60 (
here). This serum is Innisfree's best selling product .It is said to have been "
awarded globally as best moist serum for 19 times". This product has been a favorite product of many k-beauty bloggers but do keep in mind that a lot of them are sponsored by innisfree. This is why I was excited to have this in the set.

Here is a link to see which ingredients are safe and which are not.~(Here)
An ingredient that really stands out is Alcohol which is a drying ingredient. I didn't actually read about this ingredient until I bought it.
Application
As you can see it is like water but a bit thicker and has a slight browny/yellowy tint to it. According to some people one pump is moistusing enough but I have to pump a few times to get enough to moisturise my entire face. However like people claim it is not moisturising enough and you will have to add layers. For summer and humid weather though, it is a pretty good moisturiser. I can sort of understand why it has won so many awards.
Rating: 3.9/5 because it does it's job pretty well but i don't love it. They over-exaggerated the benefits I think. What do you think?
😉
Ingredients can be found here and you can buy it here (Innisfree~£11) or here (BBcosmetic~£11)
Rating: 5/5 the price is pretty resonable and as a product it really does what it says! This is definitely a #cult product
Love
