As for this post, I'm gonna share product review avoskin beauty, which consist of avoskin perfect hydrating treatment essence review and avoskin aloe vera facial wash.

Avoskin PHTE (Perfect Hydrating Treatment Essence)

What I have here is the travel size, in 30ml packaging. The full size has already launched in 2017 in 100ml packaging, and this March 2018 they're launching the travel size. This multi-functional product can be used as : essence, moisturizer, primer. The travel size makes it simple and easier to bring wherever I'm going, especially someone like me who travels a lot for work and private purposes and of course I don't want to skip skincare even though I'm far away from home.

Ingredients

Aqua, Alcohol, Mineral salt, Ascorbic acid, Fragrance

Packaging

The packaging looks really elegant with clear glass. Its simplicity made me fall in love with the packaging itself. Having glass material makes the packaging looks sturdy and makes us know exactly how much the product left.

How to use

1. Pour enough amount needed onto your hands

2. Apply it evenly onto your face and neck 

3. Use every morning and night after wash your face

Texture

As you can see from the picture, this PHTE is a liquid skincare in a medium texture - not too thick but not too watery. The water based-texture makes this skincare absorbed easily onto my skin, and doesn't leave any sticky feeling. I love this kind of skincare, that gets absorbed easily so it can reduce the time of using skincare range (less time to wait to next step). 

Scent

The scent is super relaxing (it has apple scent) which reminds me of green apple ;p the PR team of Avoskin said that they use natural ingredients to create this apple scent. They didn't use any kind of chemical perfumery, so it is very safe for our face. 

Overall

Overall, I really like this product. It gave me more of natural glows (it already glow actually but it enhanced even more) on my skin, and yet balanced this normal-to-oily skin. I used to use only the core of skincare but then realized how important each and every step, and one of those steps is using essence. Oh and the most significant effect I love is the PHTE got rid of my acne, just the scar left.

Price : IDR 289.000 (100ml) or IDR 130.000 (30ml)

Pros : Nice Scent, Natural Ingredients, get rid of acne and makes my skin glows better

Cons : they need to improve the packaging so the product can come out easily (and not spill) or use the pump just like the normal size.

Rate : 4.5/5

You girls must've already known that aloe vera is in the "hype" lately, especially for skincare products.

How to use

1. wipe your skin with water

2. pour some of the facial wash

3. Apply onto your face with circle motion

4. Wash your face until clean

Packaging

The tube packaging using plastic material seems handy and easy to use. But honestly, this packaging makes the products easily spill if you don't close it right. Also if the bottle fell onto your tub or gets into water, it'll easily absorbs water onto the bottle of facial wash. I'd prefer if they make it pump bottle to make it easier to use and of course less risky of water-contained.

Texture

It has a soft and gel texture. Completed with gentle scrubs to cleanse your skin and pores. This feels moist onto my skin (and they said this facial wash is suitable for any skin type). Oh and it's liquid so be careful when pouring the facial wash. You might pour too much.

Overall

I love how this face wash get rid of excess sebum on my normal-to-oily face, and have a good oil control throughout the day. The gentle scrub is suitable for daily exfoliating but if your skin is too sensitive maybe you can use this product 2-3 times a week. Other than that, everything seems fine to me. 

The good thing is : as a local brand they also tend to develop their local community, through @rubicommunity (on instagram) which consist of selebgram, instagram, beauty enthusiast, and women achiever in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. #Zhenbang!
