Skinfood Parsley & Mandarin Emulsion Review

Years ago, I have decided to buy this 160ml bottle of Skinfood Parsley & Mandarin Emulsion because I just want to try it. It is something new to me that time. So I bought it together with other Korean Beauty products to which I am fascinated with. This is a breakthrough skin care product made in Korea that is not yet imitated by the Philippine market as of this posting.

What I like about Skinfood Parsley & Mandarin Emulsion? 
1: It never fails to keep my skin moisturized.
2: Leaves my skin soft and gives my cheeks pinkish glow.
3: It effectively controls oil on my face.
4: One bottle last about 2 to 3 months depending on usage. I use it during night time only before going to bed.
5: Easily absorbed by my skin.
6: It is non-greasy
7: Never had pimple or acne break-outs during usage.
8: It has very thin consistency which is light to my skin. Lighter than those regular creams and moisturizers sold in the market.
9: It has very nice packaging with a cute cap.

What I do not like about Skinfood Parsley & Mandarin Emulsion?
1: It has strong scent that is not that friendly to my senses.
2: Expensive, it costs around P500 to P600 for 1 bottle.
3: Not available at the malls here in the Philippines. I need to buy it online.
4: Does not help in treating pimples or acne. When you actively have one during usage.
5: It contains paraben which is harmful for our health.

Would I buy Skinfood Parsley & Mandarin Emulsion again?
I really love the effect of this product on my skin but I probably would not buy it again. Not because I do not like the product. But for the reason that I need to buy it online just to have it. It is always out of stock on sellers, maybe because emulsions are not that popular here in the Philippines? I don’t know. I also get so paranoid on it packaging. It is made of glass that can easily break with one careless move.
