Moisturizer Review: innisfree youth-enriched gel cream with orchid

 Today's review will be for the innisfree youth-enriched gel cream with orchid




AvailabilityThis retails at $29 for 50 mL at us.innisfree.com and sephora.com along with their physical store locations, along with reputable resellers (I don't have a comprehensive list but if there is a reseller in your area or a website that sells K-beauty that you trust - like yesstyle.com go for it).

Would I buy this?: Yes!

What is this product designed to address?
According to us.innisfree.com:
Target the first signs of aging with this multi-tasking moisturizer, proven to quench skin with hydration and nourishment while improving the look of pores, firmness, elasticity and tone.
Orchidelixir 2.0™
After years of research, innisfree developed an extraction technique allowing them to cultivate every active ingredient from the Jeju Orchid — from root to petal. The potent complex delivers antioxidants similar to those found in Vitamin C to help address the early signs of aging.
Delicate flower?
Not the mighty Jeju Orchid, which rises through the snow to display its majestic purple petals during the winter. In order to bloom in the intense cold, the rare flower has great antioxidant abilities, making it highly effective at addressing multiple signs of early aging.

What is the texture like?

Is it scented?
This has a floral scent.

My overall experience/comments on the product:
So I've used this a few times and I find this to be beautifully hydrating with a completely weightless texture. Frankly I'm kind of blown away because usually, for me to get this sort of hydration, I'd need to use somewhat heavier, creamier products. I really LOVE this product because of how lightweight, and quickly absorbing it is. I think it's going to be incredible for the summertime.

Please let me know if you have any questions or comments.
