REVIEW: Daiso Horse Fat Hand Cream

Okay, I lied in the previous post. THERE WILL BE A REVIEW TODAY! :D 
The previous post totally gave me motivation to review more and get all my reviews done. 

SO! I will be reviewing Daiso's Horse fat hand cream! I happened to come across this today during my visit to Daiso, and honestly i was quite curious at what this is because I have never seen it before and so out of curiosity, i bought it, but after coming home and googling information about it, i truly regret buying it :/ Not that it sucks or anything but it goes against my animal rights beliefs :/ But anyway, this is what the packaging looks like and i also tried googling reviews for this product only to find out that SJ's Siwon got this as a gift from one of his fans before? lol 

This costs $1.50 at Daiso. 

Anyways, I'm a bit confused on this product because the package says 'Horse fat', while the bottle of the product says '馬油' in chinese, which literally translates into horse oil. the bottle also has english stating " horse oil hand cream". So my question is...is horse oil and horse fat the same? LOL... well, i guess it is. 

 


INSTRUCTIONS, as stated on the package: 
spread the product over your rough or dry skin. 

PRECAUTIONS
-do not use while having abnormal symptoms such as scrape, swelling, or eczema on the skin. 
-while or after using this product, when abnormal symptoms such as irritations appear, discontinue using, consult the doctor or the pharmacist. 
-keep in cool place, avoid the direct sunlight or high temperature. 
-keep out of reach of children. 

Most of you may have guessed that since its Daiso, this product is probably made in Japan or Korea. Wrong! I was quite surprised myself to find that this is made in Vietnam. 

The bottle is pretty small itself, stating that it is 60 grams, which is around 2 ounces... if you look at the picture i took below here, you will see that the bottle itself is not filled up all the way. this is really evident if you place the bottle under the light. From the red line down is how much cream you get out of the bottle. 


On to the testing: 

Pics of my hand before and after the cream is applied. 


Perhaps because of my bad lighting, you can't really see the difference, but after applying the cream, my hand  really did get shinier and smoother. this cream seriously makes your hand really smooth and its not the oily, sticky kind of cream/lotion either. The amount of cream on my hand was also smothered among both of my hands, so its not like i used all that cream for just one hand. 

Okay, a lot of you are probably wondering, DOES THIS SMELL BAD since it is horse oil or fat after all. 
The answer is no, honestly, if i gave it to you without telling you, I don't think you can even tell its horse fat. The smell of this cream is really faint, it kind of reminds me of a light floral minty smell. I don't really know how to describe it, but the smell is quite pleasant. 

As for the texture of this cream, it actually reminds me of butter. Once you put it on your hand it somewhat dissolves and melts onto your skin like butter as well. 


well, i think this was worth the purchase, since I have realllllyy dry hands, ( i think i would have gotten the foot cream version of this if they had it since my feet are way drier), BUT if it is really made of horse fat then no thank you, i refuse to purchase this again lol. 

i honestly wonder how much horse fat is used to make this though.. it is not stated in the ingredients...

REVIEW: Differentiating Between AUTHENTIC and FAKE Chanel Fragrance

Hi All, today I will be doing a review on AUTHENTIC vs FAKE Chanel Fragrances .  As a disclaimer , I DO NOT claim to be an expert in authenticating Chanel fragrances. These are all based on my own research and personal experience.  Please take a look at pictures of this No 5 Chanel Perfume that I bought off Ebay.  Just by looking at the BOX itself, everything actually looks pretty good. I even received this item BRAND NEW, with the clear plastic wrap on it. BUT, it is actually a FAKE. surprise!  Now, let's look at the perfume bottle. I have circled some of the issues with the bottle.  INDICATOR #1 OF A FAKE PERFUME:  Take a look at the base of this bottle. It is uneven. on the authentic, it should be symmetrical on both ends.  The cap is LOOSE. I am unable to show this on the photo, but the cap comes right off and does not snap onto the bottle.  I can't say much about the smell because I haven't smelled t

REVIEW: Daiso Deep H Moisture Gel: Hyaluronic Acid

Hello all! Once again, it is time for another review! ^^ 40 G or approx. 1.4 FL OZ made in vietnam  Instructions:  Apply proper amount of gel cream on face after washing.  how it looks As you can see, i already used up a good amount of the bottle. it is very similar to the collagen gel in terms of color, texture and smell. If i remember correctly though, this smells a bit more sour than the collagen one.  once again, daiso has very vague descriptions as to what the product does and i only made out moisture lol. I really wanted to know more and what exactly hyaluronic acid is so i googled it.  according to some webpages, hyaluronic acid is used for wounds, burns, moisturizers and etc., we also create hyaluronic acid in our bodies! the things you learn! anyways, another website stated that it is for preventing wrinkles.  I'm not entirely sure if this Daiso product is effective, i have been using it daily for 1+ week recently and honestl

REVIEW: Deep C Moisture Gel, Collagen + Reply to Comments Received!

Hello all! This is a reply to the comments i have received as well as a quick review. I managed to squeeze in some time right now to post here haha.  First off, I was asked a question about the Q10 Milky Lotion that I reviewed and stated that I would get back to the person who asked if this product was safe on the face. To be honest, I only tried it on my face for about 3 days, because I totally forgot about it the remainder of the days. Sorry! >-< BUT, yes it is safe on the face . it actually makes your face quite soft and smooth too! I actually used it with the Q10 Moisture Lotion (which i have not reviewed yet), and I'm guessing that serves somewhat as a toner to keep your face moist.  Secondly, I received a comment by Mandy today and I would love to reply here in this post! Thank you very much for the praise! I am glad that my reviews are convincing and are helpful to you! Your comment has made me very happy, along with others who have sent me comments
