Direction: Massage onto cleansed, dry face and throat with gentle circular motions. Leave for 5 minutes, then rinse off with lukewarm water. Follow by toner and moisturizer.

The gel-textured mask is light and easily to coat a thin layer on face. It don’t have to be use a lot, just about the size of a circle with 2cm diameter would be more than enough. The gel is slightly tacky like a glue paste and will not dry out, it can be easily rinsed off with warm water anyway, leaving skin really soft and moist.
I stored this in the refrigerator, make the mask application fresh and cool in hot day. Although Fancl claims it can soften and remove dead skin cell of rough and dull skin, but I wasn’t really feel there is any exfoliating magic happen despite I can do my pore extraction easily after the mask. Overall I think It’s best for skin revitalization.
This is selling 750 baht for 25g, suitable for all skin types and need to be finish in 60 days once opened due to preservative-free nature. The 25g small amount is sufficient for roughly 15 applications based on my experience that used 2-3 times a week.

I got the sample from a magazine, shade of cream beige may be one to two shades darker than my actual skin tone. The finish quite similar to Chanel White Essentiel Compact Foundation, but with better coverage and superior long-wearing ability.
What Clinique said about this foundation is, ” Petal soft powder makeup instantly brightens. Helps protect with Vitamin C and SPF29/PA+++. Moderate coverage, natural soft-matte finish.”
Derma White Bright-C Powder Makeup provides sheer to medium coverage, it’s very light-feeling, non-powdery, leaving skin natural soft glowing. Fairly pore coverage, powder is quite drying on me but quite long-wearing (test this at home on a cloudy day, the foundation stays fresh all day). Personally I wasn’t sure if I will purchase this because it might be too drying to me.

Practically, I don’t expect whitening effect from sunbock and makeup, they limited perform but might act as antioxidant in the case. High UVA/B protection is definitely earning bonus marks for Derma White Bright-C Powder Makeup, provides both mineral and chemical sunscreen ingredients. Packaging is not bulky as well, so should be easy to carry around.
Overall I do think this is pretty good, Clinique foundation unexpectedly make me surprise. I never get interested in Clinique makeup, but I changed my mind now.

While Nivea Immediate Sun Protection SPF 50+ PA++ has slightly heavier consistency for body use, the face version has lightweight texture. Nivea Immediate Sun Protection claims the face sunscreen can immediately builds a protective shield for UVA/B protection, Advanced Collagen Protect with 3 times of moisturizing power.
Notably, the face sunscreen has exactly same ingredients with the body version in different percentage of concentration. However the fine shimmer is not as much as body version. Despite the ingredient, it adheres to skin quickly with cool feeling, leaving skin quite moisturizing and radiant. It does leave white residue.
Still, that is unlikely for me to use a chemical sunscreen on the sensitive skin, so I used it on my hands later. Unfortunately I found it is very drying to be hand sunscreen, now the only option to me is to give away this sunscreen.
