{Review} Skin Food Peach Sake Pore Serum

Skin Food Peach Sake Pore Serum: Cute packaging ^_^
SkinFood Peach Sake Pore Serum
Size: 45ml
Price: approx. $15 CAD
Where to buy: S. Korea
Re-Purchase: No
Rating: 2.5/5

Their Claim: Containing rice sake, peach extract rich in vitamins A and C, and silica powder, this soft essence minimizes shine and the appearance of pores.
FYI: The Skin Food brand  is a South Korean brand that was established since 1957. It is a very popular line in South Korean and worldwide.
Easy to use pump to dispense serum without the mess.
Likes: Smells yummy, easy to use pump and absorbs easily.
Dislikes: Not very moisturizing for me.
Suggestion(s): For oily skin type or those having issues with large pores.

My Experience: I initially purchased this item back in August 2010 after hearing so many raves about it. Since i needed to start a skin care routine i decide to give this product a try. I was really excited when it arrived in the mail, and i couldnt wait to try it on my face *hehehe*.
I really like the cute packaging and easy to use pump, and also the yummy smell of the serum.  The serum is a good consistency, not runny but not too thick. It's easy to spread and absorbs fast. It also has a bit of shimmer in the product but it's not overpowering.
Skin Food Peach Sake Pore Serum: Consistency is not runny nor too thick.
 Sounds like a great product right? However, i felt this product did not moisturize my skin enough for me. Then again, it's intended to be used prior to moisturizer so it's not necessarily for moisturizing on its own. It's suppose to minimize your pores and shine for better looking skin. I don't think this product was for me because i don't have much concerns with pores and i believe this product is more for oily skin -- i have normal skin (normal to dry in winter). Better luck next time for me *sobs a little*

Taking Care Of My Skin


**update: Photograph added January 6.2011**
I'm a twenty-something year old woman who has never had a skin care routine. I never had any serious skin care issues like acne, so perhaps that is why i never decided to really take good care of my skin.

However, late last year i noticed that the pressures of school was taking its toll-- on my face. I started having pimples, here and there and it was evident that it was caused by stress. It wasn't that bad that i was getting these pimples, it was the fact that my skin scars easily, so the pimples left marks where the pimples once were. It was then that i decided i need to start taking care of my skin; especially since i'm getting older and it is better to prevent a problem than trying to cure it after it occurs. So i did a lot of researching and was overwhelmed with information and skin care lines-- i didn't know what to use or even where to start.

I was introduced to a few skin care lines, and purchased a few products from each line. Some products i really like, while others did not work well for me at all.
However, i must say that i have finally found a skin care routine that has been working great for me so far.
I will be reviewing these products in the upcoming days and weeks.
So please stay tuned for the reviews =)

What a way to start the new year!

Just a few minutes ago, i was sitting in my room browsing the internet and warming up a slice of pizza to munch on when suddenly i heard our Carbon Monoxide alarm go off. I wasn't sure what it was at first since this is the first time i've heard it go off since we moved here last year. It kept saying "Carbon Moxide..." over and over again. I totally freaked out and grabbed my winter coat, and called the Police Department to let them know what's going on.
They told us to wait outside for the Fire Department to get to our house. We had to wait outside in the cold feeling scared and unsure of what's really going on. It didn't take too long for them to get here and check out the house.
They concluded that there's no Carbon Monoxide in the house and the alarm might just need cleaning, although the alarm battery replacement date is every seven-years. I'm relieved at this point that we're okay, but they said if it goes off again to give them a call. I really hope it doesn't go off again & that we'll be okay. What a way to start off the new year eh?
