IN2IT Sheer Natural Gel Foundation Review
Konnichiwa minna-san! I've just finished doing my first post! Be sure to check out my review of the Liole Water drop BB Cream. (@o@) Well Before I start the review, let me tell you a brief history about the Cosmetic Line. IN2IT started 12 years ago when a group of like-minded artists and designers began developing cosmetic products for fun. The objective was to develop high quality products at an affordable price. It became a big hit and was a quick success. The brand is owned by Asia Pacific Cosmetics Corporation (APCC) in Hong Kong, a private company. It is particularly famed for eyeliners, eye colours, and blush. The products are formulated for Asian skin using ingredients and technology from Japan and Europe. (info from IN2IT website)
This is the photo of the product though the one that I got comes with a free concealer, which I'd review on another post. (photo from google)
This is the ad from their website.

PRODUCT CLAIMS:
* A non-greasy water based formulation that is easy to apply and blend. Contains Bisabolol to help soothe and condition the skin. Contains 69% natural ingredients, no fragrance and is oil-free.
* Water proof
* Light and has a very natural finish
* It Conceals very fine lines and wrinkles
* Contains Vitamin E and Aloe vera for extra moisture
* It has SPF 25 PA++
* It has whitening properties
HOW TO APPLY:
Use Fingertips for applying. Sponge is best used for those who have oily skin like me.
INGREDIENTS:
This is the back of my hand with a pea sized amount of the product. It was a bit yellowish. There are only two shades. I got the second shade which is the Golden Beige, the other one is Light Beige. Unlike the Liole Water Drop BB Cream, this one looks a bit creamy and has more coverage especially if you build it up.

The Cream slightly blended.
With Flash
It may really be not noticeable but it also didn't leave any thick coverage.
With Flash. If you take a closer look, you can somehow notice that the right part is slightly glossy. That part has the cream blended well. Upon application it may look a bit whiter than expected but it will eventually sink in and change color. As you know, BB creams tend to oxidize and darken after a few hours of application and this product is no exception. It is again a product that is suitable for those who have normal skin type and to those who have relatively good skin and only needs minimal makeup.
PROS:
* It has an SPF which means you don't need to put on a sunscreen lotion or gel.
* It is not cakey and it sets fast
* Covers minor imperfections like small and light scars and spots
*Easy to remove with water and cleanser
*Has a semi-matte finish (good news for people with oily skin)
*Lightweight and is easy to apply
CONS:
* After 2 hours it left a white cast on some areas especially the nose and chin areas.
*It also oxidizes
*Not for Sports Enthusiasts.
* Not suitable for those with oily skin
Neutral:
* Price
Recommendation:
*Those who have normal skin type
*It can also be used by those who have dry skin, you won't have to set it with powder because it somehow looks dewy for those who have normal and dry skin type.
Will I re-purchase?
*No, It's quite good but it isn't really for me that's why I only used a couple of times. I gave it to my mother. She has good skin and only has minor problems like some blackheads even though she's already 41. >>ENVY<< HAHAHAHA...
Where to buy and price:
* SM Supermalls Department Store, Beauty Section: Original Price - Php 400+
Got mine with a free concealer pen for only Php 499(?) I think but it's less than 500 Can't remember if it's 449 or 499. The Concealer is Php 319.75. So it's really a bargain deal!
*Watsons - it may not be available at some stores though.
* Robinson's Department Store
* The Landmark
*Cinderella
* Sta. Lucia East Mall
* Metro Gaisano
* Crossings
* PCX Personal Care Exchange
