Review: Laneige Water Sleeping Pack EX

Hi guys!

So from the title of this post, this is a review for the very popular Laneige Water Sleeping Pack.

'Light gel-type texture provides intensive hydration, vitality and brightening effect while restoring skin with deep relaxation'

For all skin types

Alcohol free

Contains:
Beta glucan for skin regeneration effect
Ceramide SLN for moisture loss protection

Hunza Apricot extract for skin purification

Chestnut extract for improving skin texture

(information from Laneige website)

In the tub it does have a light blue tint to it, but it doesn't show on the face. I use this under my normal skin care (as an intensive night cream) and it works wonders! Instructions say to use this under a moisturizer (or you can use it on its own) and leave it on while you sleep, then wash it off when you wake up the next day. I use this about 2-3 times a week as it is winter now (in Australia) and I don't want my skin to dry out as my skin is quite dry but with this I have found that I have not gotten a dry patch/area since using this product, which is quite rare! It definitely lives up to its moisturizing claims. I haven't noticed any brightening effects however, but i have noticed that my skin has become less red the next day. It does have the typical cream scent, but it doesn't bother me.  

Pros:
-light weight
-absorbs into skin relatively quickly
-alcohol free
-80ml will last you quite a while
-keeps skin hydrated (during winter)
-great for those who have dry skin or suffer from flakiness
-plastic packaging, but sturdy

Cons:
-comes in a tub, which can be unhygienic
-does have a scent, which can bother those that are sensitive to scents.

I totally understand what the hype is about for this product. It's great for those with super dehydrated skin, and those with normal/oily skin can use this also as it is lightweight and will not irritate skin (alcohol free). I bought this on sasa.com at a relatively cheap price considering how much you get and how long it lasts. I will definitely be repurchasing this and will probably use this for as long as I can! Have you tried any Laneige products?
