Why Green Tea?

Green Tea is a natural anti-oxidant, well known for its anti-bacterial, astringent and anti-ageing as well as UV protection qualities. The Green Tea Extract used in the series has 20X more anti-oxidative power as compared to Vitamin C, providing superior protection against harmful UV rays by donating electrons to the free radicals, rendering them less harmful and reducing UV-related photo-ageing. Vitamin E, one of the main vitamins found in green tea, is also known for its ability to help skin retain moisture to slow down the signs of aging.

Soy Bean?

The new and improved Ginvera Green Tea Whitening Series is also enriched with soybean extract for enhanced whitening efficacies. This unique soybean is fermented with Bacillus Subtilis to produce Cellplus+ (a soft liquid product that contains plenty of amino acids) which has strong moisturizing and whitening properties.

In other cases, bacteria infection might also cause inflammation of the skin, leading to skin problems like pimples and acnes. The dead skin cells barrier also obstructs the absorption of skincare products applied subsequently, putting them to waste.

My Review
This is one of my favourite scrub in the morning. As i often put makeup at the day, i'm to lazy to add this step in, but i use this as my first step in the morning. Once i wake up, i will use this to massage my face, and it always make me happy when i see the small flakes come out. (Bye bye dead skin cells) Some flakes are different in color and it feels like the dirts are all coming out and i'm prep-ing my face for makeup later. After cleansing, i can feel that my face is much smoother and softer. I still can't see the whitening effect yet, but i like how it remove the dirt from my face.

My Review

My grandma always tell me jade is good for skin and i did wore it for awhile when i was younger. I really like the cooling effect the jade is and i think they are really good for skin. I was amazed at the Jade roller for the eyes (i love rollers more than creams now for eyes) as they are easy to apply and handy. I can see my panda trademark (dark circles) lighten up gradually and i don't look tired. No stickiness, greasiness (which i experienced from lots of eye creams) and my eyes did indeed look better.
