I remember when I first went on my dream trip to South Korea two years ago, I was so ecstatic because I knew I was finally stepping in one of my bucket list countries and the most important part - land of skincare! I've heard of the Korean beauty brand innisfree for the longest time and naturally, when I went on my trip, I bought some products home with me to Manila. But sadly, once they're finished, I would have to wait again for friends who would go to Seoul and make 'pasabay'.
Finally, that is no longer the case! Because innisfree has landed on our shores and opened their first ever store at SM Mall of Asia and now on its second branch for north peeps at SM Megamall last April 5! ^_^
innisfree is the holy grail of almost all skincare lovers that I know because of the natural benefits it gives. Some of their most-loved products around the world include the Green Tea Seed Serum, Orchid Enriched Cream and Super Volcanic Pore Clay Mask.
Last April 4, I was able to attend the Media Preview of innisfree's store at SM Megamall and we were able to listen to Jet Guison's K-beauty Glass Skin Class and I personally learned a lot from it. I honestly didn't know what I was doing a certain step wrong in my skincare routine and glad she was able to clarify that for most of us!
During the class, the products that she highlighted was the new #HydrationHero Green Tea Seed Serum and other green tea products that have come back with a brand new look. :)
innisfree
has reinvented their best seller Green Tea Seed Serum - packed with amino acid and minerals, the lightweight yet nourishing serum works to replenish your optimal moisture level, wrapping skin in comfort for a smooth, glowing complexion. It opens the moisture path of dehydrated skin to replenish clear moisture.
I've been personally using the serum for a week now and I really love it! Don't think i'll be going back to the old serum I was using before this! >_<
Fun Fact:
There are 8 bottles of Green Tea Seed Serum sold every minute around the world! WOW!
If you haven't been to the new innisfree store yet, here's a little cyber tour for you!
I love how minimalist, bright and refreshing each store is! Makes you feel always welcome to go in!
If it's your first time at innisfree, you can refer to their best-sellers wall to know which products you should consider buying. :)
Every corner of the store is filled with coveted products and we actually spent a good hour just going around the store and excitedly trying out different products!
Green Tea Seed Serum - Php 1,590
Why else is their Green Tea line so good? Extracted from fresh Beauty Green Tea leaves, Fresh Green Tea Water 2.0 is enriched with 16 kinds of amino acids and provides skin moisturising benefits. They've been cultivating their own organic green tea field on JEJU Island for decades and its regarded among the best in the world. :)
There are samples all over the store, so you can actually have a feel of the products before buying them. :) They're also all arranged according to categories and needs, so everything is so easy to find!
Pax and I discussing our faves while swatching here!
They have the My-to-go cushion and My Palette, where you can customize by choosing your own case/magnetic pans and easily consolidate your favorite colors into one palette. Pretty much like a DIY! Cool, right? ^_^
Sheet masks for days! There are so many variants to choose from! But if you're acne prone, green tea is always a good option!
They have a lovely perfume area as well and the Perfume Stick got me interested with them. I was told that you can even combine them and create a new scent! :)
Aside from skincare, innisfree is also known for their makeup! I super love their flavored lip balms that have scent! I got theHomemade Lemon Teaand legit it smells like lemon!
One of the many things I love about innisfree as a brand is their initiative for mother earth! Since 2013, they have been doing the whole reused, renewed and recycled thing every chance they got. At the SM Megamall and SM Mall of Asia stores, they'll be running the Empty Bottle Campaign all year long and this encourages everyone to drop of their empties. These materials are then used in making new packaging or upcycled into new objects or art! :) So, lets help create a healthy, sustainable, waste free world by donating our innisfree bottles!
I'm really happy that innisfree is here in the Philippines and gradually expanding around the metro! :) It will be easy to get our hands on our favorites from now on cos skincare is life!
Been in the blogosphere for a decade and I love writing about fashion, beauty, motherhood, the arts and more. This is where you'll find things that make me happy. :)
