PROPER neck care for a MORE youthful look

Prologue:

Girls, my deepest apologies for the lack of updates as I am currently bombard with like 2-3 assignments per week from school.

I would too love to use this chance to express my heartfelt thanks to all the readers who have stayed with SSC and have been kind to me until today.

In conjunction of SSC’s first birthday and my own birthday, I will be launching a giveaway really soon, do stay tuned and participate in it.

With lotsa hugs and kisses, Lenn

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Back to the focus for today's entry,

Girls, you must all be probably thinking that isn’t with just the usage of facial products is more than enough for a youthful looking you right?

Think again, other than the face that we treasure, the neck area is actually just as delicate against the natural pollutants in the air and the constant exposure of the sun.

Often being neglected, the neck area actually does play a big part in the exposure of one’s actual age even through your face might seem flawless.

Though do not get me wrong, I am not trying to say that the neck area is more important than the face but  they are both equally important as they compliments each other in terms of our presentation of ourselves.

Thus in order to make yours and my life easier, I have went ahead to test drive a product that I have recently gotten my paws on that might help improve such conditions.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It is none other than Skin Food’s Grape Seed Oil Wrinkle Neck Cream,

Meet the star for today the Skin Food’s Grape Seed Oil Wrinkle Neck Cream.

Possesses a creamy texture with an slight alcoholic grape scent, or perhaps is just my personal interpretation.

Feels absolutely light weight on my skin after application.


Here’s more information about it:
  • Priced @ $27.10 for a 50g jar
  • Made in Korea
  • Contain grape seed oil for moisture retention
  • Possess anti-aging and hydrating properties
  • Plastic tub container packaging

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Pros
  • Fast absorption
  • Light weight
  • Creamy texture glides on effortlessly
  • Smoother and suppler skin after constant usage
  • Slightly lighten existing fine lines
  • Brightens up dull, lifeless looking skin

-----

Cons
  • Not in favor of its scent, through it pleasantly disperse after a few minutes after application
  • Prefer a more hygienic and convenient packaging instead of the existing tub container. Constantly looking for a clean spatula to use and washing it after every use can be quite a hassle

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

My thoughts on the Skin Food’s Grape Seed Oil Wrinkle Neck Cream,

After constant usage, my neck area do seemed more supple and firm. It also feels really soft and smooth when touched.

I love the fast absorption of the Skin Food’s Grape Seed Oil Wrinkle Neck Cream into my skin, with this there is lesser waiting time and it is easier for it to be incorporate into my skincare regime.

I would have preferred if it is packaged in a squeeze tube container as it would be easier to bring around and as I am able to control the amount that I dispense out each time. In this way it will be more hygienic and there will be lesser wastage as well.

-----

My Verdict

7 out of 10 stars, as I am not in favor of its scent

-----

Will I buy it again?

Depends, as I am very particular about the smell of the product I use as I believe that aromatherapy does help to relax one’s senses after a tiring day.

Girls, go give the tester at Skin Food a try before deciding on making a purchase. Though it really depends on an individual’s take on their preferences when it comes to scent.

I do get feed backs that it smells acceptable or heavenly to some friends that I have previously introduced the Skin Food’s Grape Seed Oil Wrinkle Neck Cream for their consideration.

Well to each our own, I guess.

Till next time ^_^
