• Consistency: It's super gel-like and very very light on the skin! Prior to using this serum, I didn't like using a serum in the day because it made me feel like I had too many layers on and my makeup was going to slip off. However, Since I started using this Gigawhite Radiance Serum, I've started to also use serums during the day! 
• Ingredient: There are so many amazing plant-based ingredients very close and higher up vs just being lost near the bottom. JAPONICA ROOT EXTRACT and (BROCCOLI) SPROUT EXTRACT are a few call outs.
• Claims: However, I do find that many times with this many ingredients, results are not overnight since there tends to be a bit of everything. I can't say that I saw radical results in brightening in my skin - but I can say that my skin does like this and I have been reaching for it and still do use it on a daily morning basis! 
• Scent: There's a little bit of a herbal aromatherapy smell? But it's very faint and disappears rather quickly. 

The Moisture Brightening Cream helps to diminish the appearance of dark spots and even out skin tone, while providing hydration for radiant, clear skin. Containing Earth’s Recipe’s signature Gigawhite complex, a combination of Alpine plant extracts, this cream brightens and hydrates without irritating the skin. It provides an illuminating finish for glowing skin.

• Consistency: Similarly like the serum, the consistency is almost like a gel! I find with gels though, they tend to be light but not moisturizing enough. However, this formula is light AND moisturizing + easily absorbed into my skin. I usually use very thick creams and oils at night but I found a nice spot for this cream for my morning daily use.
• Smell: Like the serum, a light herbal, aromatherapeutic smell! Disappears once you rub the cream in. 
• Ingredients: Similar to the serum, but not as many active ingredients? I didn't find it lightened any serious hyperpigmentation - but hydration does brighten ones' skin! This is an amazing moisturizer for those hot days (Toronto suddenly reached 39 degrees the other day?!) where you want moisture...without the grease ^^"

• Light - Easily absorbed
• Smell
• Moisturizing 
• Slightly brightening 

The Snow Mask Pack is pH balanced to match the skin’s natural, slightly-acidic pH, supporting the skin’s moisture barrier.

• One feature I love was the size of these face masks! They're one size smaller than the regular ones that are always way too big... these ones fit perfectly! 
• The cotton is pretty thick and very saturated 
• Left it on for 20 minutes before it started to get dry-my skin super plump and moisturized! 
• The serum that the mask is soaked in was sticky as usual but had a bit more of a "gel" texture to it - probably from the Snail mucin extract.
• Although it claimed to be "hydrating without feeling sticky," it still did initially feel heavy and just as sticky as others - but it sunk into my skin without leaving a weird gooey film on my face. This allowed me to apply my skincare as I usually would! 
• Ingredients: Snail mucin extract and propolis are really amazing for healing the skin. I imagine I would ideally use this after spending a long day under the sun or if my skin is healing from acne!

• Size was perfect
• Very saturated 
• Sticky - but absorbed better than other masks 
• Hydrating 
• Plumping

• Not really brightening? - still made my skin glowy/plump

Repurchase? yes

Rating: 8.4/10

(You can see the size ends perfectly at the edge of my face!)

(skin looks very glowy/hydrated after!)
