| Haven't tried the skincare but have used their supreme compact foundation and am still using their treatment makeup base. I really enjoyed both but because I have combo skin leaning towards the oily side the compact foundation would be too heavy in the summer but perfect for winter! I still love the treatment makeup base just for its ingredients and how it does help hydrate my skin so makeup goes on more flawlessly. |

| I used some samples. They all contain alcohol I believe because you can easily smell it... for the famous compact foundation which claims to contain over 70% water? It is a big joke. yes, it has a lot of water, but after you apply it to your face and let it dry for while, it also takes away the water in your skin making you even drier!! Also, it won't stay long and get clog quickly. I would like to recommend SK II treatment compact foundation rather than this one. |

 I never cared about the claims but I've never had problems with it clogging my pores. And it has NEVER dried out my skin either and my aunt who has mature dry skin has not had problems with the makeup compact either. But then I guess it's preference. The makeup base doesn't smell like alcohol to me but yes it does contain alcohol but it doesn't contain enough of it to irritate my skin and my skin is quite sensitive to alcohol. |

I have used a couple of their hydrating product samples including the hydrating essence, however I didn't feel much special about it. I have also use their firming massage gel (it's supposed to slim down the face). Although it hasn't made my face slimmer instantly per se, it does a nice and gentle exfoliating job. Because of the above experience, I have been hesitant to continue trying other products  |

| I have never used it so I can't comment. I'm not sure how popular it is here and in the US. |

| Oh by the way, I would like to agree with the above post on their power compact foundation. Yeah what a joke, that's exactly how I feel. Supposedly it contains a lot of water, but it doesn't hydrate the skin; it makes the skin looks even drier later on. And guess what? My compact dried out before I could finish it! |

That's odd, I've had mine since January (I've used it up but haven't thrown it away) and it's still as moist as I first got it. |
