The Power Essential Skin Refiner has been a favourite of mine for a while now. I stumbled upon this range a while back (as I wanted to try achieve a soft and bright complexion). Laneige states their secret is glacier water that achieves this light and gentle formula.
**Apologies in advance for the pictures. I haven't had time to take proper pictures other than the camera shots I took with my phone...
What I love about this product:
- It is super gentle on the skin
- It can be applied with a cotton pad or fingertips (you can see the excess dirt on a cotton pad after you clean or exfoliate the skin!)
- No strong fragrance
- Packaging! (I'm a sucker for pretty packaging!)
- Bang for your buck! (I have had this bottle for nearly a year and what you see above is how much I have left of this product) - This is also used twice daily in my everyday skincare routine!
- Lightweight, dewy texture
What I dislike about this product:
- Packaging - The screw top lid can be annoying sometimes when you are trying to use the product without a cotton pad
- NOT travel friendly - I took this bottle overseas with me and the contents slightly came out of the bottle. I would strongly suggest investing in a small travel bottle if you wanted to take this with you!
- On the first point about packaging... The screw top lid is something you will need to get use to, as the moisturiser is a capped bottle (as you will see in my next post).
My recommendations:
I absolutely love this product to death (and friends I have recommended this to have agreed). It is easy to use and doesn't leave a oily residue on your face. I use this after washing my face and prior to using a sheet mask or any facial masks. I found that using this product in conjunction with other Laneige products in this range has brighten my skins appearance and makes my skins soft and smooth. HOWEVER, I strongly recommend not taking the bottle overseas in your luggage. I was fortunate enough that it leaked into the plastic bag i sealed it in within my waterproof cosmetics case! (I attempted it a few times, as I thought this may of been a once off chance.... I was wrong!)
Would I repurchase this? Absolutely! I love the results provided from using this product AND how it doesn't break me out. I have tried toners previous to this, but I have never found anything quite as effective as this product. However, I will take this in a smaller seal proof travel container, as a little DEFINITELY goes a long way with this!

Until next time,
