How's your day? If you have a
really tough days lately - like mine- , there's a good news for us
because tomorrow is Friday \(≧∇≦)/ Lolol..
So I have a really busy
stressfull days this week and in addition, I live in a country (Indonesia), especially my town (Makassar), which has hot and humid weather and it makes all worse. Just for you know I have a very oily skin, very oily here means super oily and my skin tends to produce oil just 30 minutes right after I take a shower. Super oily, isn't it? To make it worse, I have acne prone skin too >.<
I already had my first acne when I was 10 years old, but that time my acne wasn't that bad. Maybe just one or two small pimples on my face. But as I grew up, my skin become more oily and so do my pimples (growing more and more). So when I was 13 I already used acne treatment that contains 5% benzoyl peroxide.
The treatment worked really well so I think maybe I don't need to use them anymore, especially after I read some articles about the negative effect of benzoyl peroxide to skin and how tea tree oil can do the same wonder to acne prone skin just like benzoyl peroxide but with much less negative effect. So I changed my benzoyl peroxide cream with tea tree oil which I bought from Oriflame. I also changed some of my skin care routine too like I usually wash my face with cool water, but then I changed it into warm water and then ended it with cool water. I also steam my face.
In the first few weeks my skin looked really nice, but after that BAM!!! My skin was at its worst condition. I have many so breakouts around my cheeks, chin, and my jawline. Some of them were pustules, some were nodules. They are not really painful, but they do break off all of my confidence. I avoided the sun, my friends. I didn't like to go outdoors because sun light can make my acne more red and noticeable. Sometimes I looked my self in front of the mirror and cry. My skin looked so bad. It looked really dry, but in the same time they were really oily too. I tried so many treatment that time (maybe I'll do another post about it because it will be too long if I write them all in this post), some of them worked, some not, some even made it worse. So in a nutshell, I was back to my benzoyl peroxide cream (ToT) But because all of the trial that I do to my face, my skin is still really dry (but at the same time really oily too). I know this is confusing. I said my skin is oily but dry too because my skin still produce so much oil, but every two weeks my skin is peeling itself. My friends even called me snake skin.
Then one day my best friend since high school came back from Canada (she took college in Canada). She came home during her summer vacation. I told her about my skin and then she told me about a product that she has been used for 3 years to treated her sensitive skin (later I know one of my friend's granny has been using the same product from her teens until now). Yes, it is Hazeline Snow.
Hazeline Snow is a moisturising cream that was manufactured in Malaysia. It has 2 variants, the green one (Hazeline White & Natural Lightening Cream) and the yellow one (Hazeline Snow Moisturising Cream). I've been using the yellow one.
It contains 100 g of products which is a really generous amount of product considering the price. Really cheap （*´▽｀*） The box has a really lovely yellow gradient color. Husky (the puppy) really wants to show up in this post so I let him to come take pictures together. Lolol XD

The jar made of glass (makes it looks pricey). Be carefull not to drop it because it will broken in pieces.
There is a white plastic lid that seperate the close and the product.
Here is how the cream looks like. As white as snow..
Here's the swatch..

| Full blended |
As you can see the side part of my arm with Hazeline Snow looks brighter. It has cooling sensation which is really nice when you apply it on your skin, just like snow （￣ー￣）Really great for those hot humid days. The texture is a little bit different with other creams that I've been used before. It has snowy texture (dense/solid, but melt when you blend it on the skin). Unique, isn't it?
So I've been using this product for 3 and half years until now. Since the first time I used it, my skin NEVER peeling itself anymore. Really XD My friend never called me snake skin anymore. Yay!! I'm so happy with the result (now my skin is much nicer than my skin 3 years ago, but of course it happens not only because this product, but still, this product has a very important role on how my skin looks like now).
The other thing that I really love about this product is it doesn't make my skin more oily because it doesn't contain oil. It is a water-based moisturising cream so it will suit even super duper oily skin type like me. The only downside of this product is it contains methylparaben and propylparaben which can cause allergies for some people, but I've never experienced anything like that so I'm okay with it..
Overall I really recommended this product to everyone especially for those people with super oily skin that has a really hard time to find the perfect moisturising product which will suit their oily skin without making it more oily.
That's all for the review today. I hope you like it ^-^
