Holika Holika Aqua Fantasy Whitening Cream

First of all let me say Happy Belated New Year, ‧★,:*:‧\(^▽^)/‧:*‧°★* may all of you have a successful 2014.
After a long holiday that I spend taking care of my counter and doing nothing for the rest, I think it's better to write a review. It is about Holika Holika Aqua Fantasy Whitening Cream




Unfortunately I'm not familiar with this product (*^^*) so I did a little dig on Google. And from what I got from the website is:
"Holika Holika Aqua Fantasy Whitening Cream is highly concentrated with Iceland Glacial Water to provide skin with a surge of moisture and a brightened complexion. Its thicker consistency allows it to lock in moisture and creates a protective film to protect skin from harmful environmental factors. Achieve beautifully soft and even toned complexion with this cream!

Directions: After an appropriate amount all over face, tapping lightly to help absorption. Recommended to be used at night.

Benefits:
Whitens
Moisturizes
Locks in Moisture
Evens Tone"


And as you can see, in the front of the sachet written "Fantastic moisture & whitening care with aqua energy of wonderland where those icebergs and hot spring water".

I skip the part of Recommended to be used at night, so I use it all day, Haha (^^ゞ
Well, the cream has a bit of foamy form that makes it so light and quick to sinks in, just instantly (Thicker consistency? Seriously? Or was I in the wrong page of the web?). I can sense a sheer musky smell when I applied it, and because I'm not a fan of musk, it's annoyed me a little bit. I have oily skin that tends to dry out when I'm staying in my parents in law's place, and I found out that this cream didn't hydrating enough. I also feel lack of soft feeling on my skin like other Korean products does. Well, I don't expect too much about the whitening effect since I only had the sample sachet that to be used for about two days only, so the result is none.

Pro:
- Light cream that sinks in instantly

Cons:
- Musk smell that annoys me
- Not hydrating

Recommended: Not really
