Innisfree Olive Real Lotion Review

Hello Lovelies!  That's a month +++ since my last post!  I'm being buried by my finals for almost a month.  You might wonder why my finals lasts for a month so let me tell you --- I took 8 subjects for last semester.  My university plans the syllabus and make it compulsory for every student.  *sobs sobs*  It's so lucky I'm still ALIVE~  Well, the exam ended now, say bye bye to my zombie life. *flowers and sparks*

So, I'm gonna review Innisfree Olive Real Lotion today!  I'm have been obsessed with Innisfree since they open their 1st store here in Malaysia.  I already had my second haul. *opsss!*

It comes with a recycled paper made box, a typical Innisfree packaging.  The plastic bottle makes it light and handy to be carried around.

From the introduction by Innisfree:
"Enriched with the best quality of extra virgin olive oil from Crete Island.  Olive Real deeply nourishes skin and retains moisture for healthy radiant skin."

Price: 14,000 won / RM57 (160ml)


I have been using this lotion for a month+, I would say it does its job quite good!  At first, I used it together with the famous Innisfree Green Tea Serum but some small red bumps on my cheeks.  I called it an allergy as I do have a dry sensitive skin.  Things are good when I use them separately, guess it might be only me?!  So, I just quit using the serum and use the lotion with the Hada Labo Hydating Lotion and they work well on my skin!  They have been my current skin care routine since weeks ago.


Before > After
The lotion texture is considered watery but not those liquid type of watery if you get what I mean.  It absorbs quite fast into my skin and leave a healthy radiant skin like those dewy skin you can see from the Korean actress.  The dewiness will go off afterwards.  My skin feels more moisturize and less redness.  You might thought my skin get a lots darker at the 'After' photo but it's just because of the lighting.  Also, you might not spot the dewiness on my skin, possible it failed to be captured by my camera.

FYI: Extra virgin olive oil helps moisturizes, protects and repairs your skin and it helps soothing eczema too.

I think I like this olive range more than their green tea line!  Plus, I like the olive smell it gives off.  The smell is not those oily smell from those you use for cooking but a more fresh type of smell :)

Noted that my skin is dry and sensitive, oily skin may not like this.  For those out there having the same skin type as mine, you might want to give it a try!
