Glow From Within with KOSÉ SEKKISEI (Review)


Hi girls...... I believe you will agree with me that it's never too late or too early to begin taking care of your skin. Recently, I received a huge parcel from KOSÉ, thanks to the collaboration of TBP & KOSÉ. The lovely huge box contains a SEKKISEI trial kit with lot's of adorable balloons. Not forgetting the love shaped helium gas balloon. So sweet, right. You can also view my short unboxing video here. Okies... back to the product! 

Do you know KOSÉ SEKKISEI has been restoring translucence to women's skin for over 30 years? SEKKISEI is created based on an age-old ‘beautiful translucent skin recipe’ to brighten gently and effectively. Since its launch in 1985, rumours of SEKKISEI’s effects have spread through word-of-mouth. 

Introducing the 5 star products from KOSÉ SEKKISEI that came together in the special edition trial kit! Specially-designed for skin translucency, SEKKISEI products harness the power of Oriental Herb extracts, which are carefully-selected from about 100 different plants, creating a harmonious and skin-loving formula that gives women brighter, even-toned and moisturised skin. The oriental plant extracts of Coix Seed, Melothria (White Lotus) and Angelica works diligently to keep our skin in perfect condition, protected from the harsh environment.

















SEKKISEI White Liquid Wash (140ml/RM131.40)
This delicate cleanser is taurine-based thus it does not strip away moisture of the skin while cleanses and hydrates the skin well.  It contains Rubus Suavissmus Extract to enhance skin dullness and soothes UV damage. 

The cleanser is milky in texture and I only needed 1 pump for my face. Lather with water until foamy and massage onto face before washing off thoroughly. The skin does not feel tight nor dry and rinsing it out was a breeze too. 



















SEKKISEI Lotion (200ml/RM180.20, 360ml/RM275.60) 
Star Product! One of the bestseller, SEKKISEI Lotion contains ingredients carefully-selected from 100 types of oriental plants. You can use it as a toner or a mask as the fine-textured hydrating lotion balances out skin’s moisture levels, prevents dullness, soothes redness and more. Pour lotion onto a cotton pad and pat on face. I love the cooling and refreshing feeling, with mild flowery scent.  It does not leave my skin feeling dry too.

The bihadagoyomi mask comes in the form a tablet. (3 pcs in the trial kit)

KOSÉ’s tip: For instant hydration, place a bihadagoyomi mask into the cap and pour SEKKISEI Lotion until the mask tablet puffs up. Leave it on the face for 10 minutes and you'll have instant hydrated and supple skin.

The Kose Bihadagoyomi mask is a convenient tablet mask made of liquid absorbing materials. It is able to fit any facial shapes with the soft edges. Recommended to apply 2-3 times in a week.


















SEKKISEI Emulsion (140ml/RM191.80)
The moisturiser is quick-absorbing and penetrate deep into the skin, preventing freckles, dark spots and dehydration. With ingredients like Inula Britanica Flower, Chinese Pearl Barley, Paeonia Albiflora Root, Melothria Heterophylla and Angelica you'll have a more translucent complexion. 

The usage instruction is to apply 1 to 2 pumps on a cotton pad and spread evenly over the skin. But as for me, I prefer to apply directly to my face. Gently massage into the face and neck using an upwards motion. Skin feels moisturised and it does not feel sticky too.   
















 
SEKKISEI Clear Whitening Mask (80g/RM94.30)
One of the famous black mask in the market, this is a peel-off mask that helps to remove dead skin cells and dullness, brightens while hydrates at the same time. Chinese Quince extract inhibits sebum production, while a blend of oriental plant extracts delivers supreme whitening benefits. One of my favourite product from KOSÉ SEKKISEI range.

 
Looking away, I hope I don't scare you. Hehehe..... The mask is black in colour because of the nano-sized black powder that allows the mask to spread easily. 

Spread the thick black gel across your face, avoiding eyes, eyebrows and hairline area. Allow the mask to dry and gently peel it off from inwards from the outer area of the face. It does feel a bit painful when peeling off, but the pain is still bearable for me. 
 
Sorry for the gross picture, but spot the dead skin cells, blackheads and whiteheads. On top of that, it will also wax off your facial hair. Yay, smoother skin. Hehehe... 
 


Verdict : After one week of using KOSÉ SEKKISEI, my complexion is instantly brighten, more glowing and well-hydrated. My skin feels softer, smoother and firmer too. KOSÉ SEKKISEI is an affordable oriental beauty secret for moisturised, brighter and even skin tone. The products can last quite some time too.


For first-time user, you could get this SEKKISEI trial kit is priced at RM99 (GST included) to feel and see the SEKKISEI difference for yourself There are 2 pouch design available too. (kimono style or city chic style)

For a limited time, get this pretty one-of-a-kind SEKKISEI Sakura editions of  SEKKISEI Lotion Sakura Design (500ml/RM331.70) and SEKKISEI Kit Sakura Design (Lotion 140ml, Emulsion 70ml, Lotion Mask 1pc/RM150).
