Review: Cellnique Pro Sebum Gel
Monday, July 07, 2008
The info at the back of the bottle said:
... a beauty-salon-formulation gel to clear both blackheads and
whiteheads on affected skin area without painful extraction. This daily
maintenance gel also slows down oil secretion, leaving skin clear and producing
smooth visible results in 10 pain-free days.
Without Painful Extraction was the keyword here for me...
Hey, a testimony from people I know and trust, and besides Aunty J was thinking to try it out too. What have I got to loose (except part with some $$$ *sob sob*)?
Plus am not gonna risk having Aunty J looking fresh and blackhead+whitehead free in 14 days while I still have to hide my pothole-like humongous pores behind thick make-up powder!
The below 'before' and 'after' photos are truly my horribly scarred and porous nose, and not of Mr Frankenstein or Mr Monster as you may be persuaded to think...
Not edited at all. No make up. Fresh out from the bed haha!
Anyway, I started using the gel on 19th June 2008 --
Note how clearer and smaller the pores are at the tip of my nose. But as yet, my stubborn whitehead are not completely eliminated... the blackheads are visibly gone though. Let see in 1 month times...The gel is slightly sticky, clear in colour and odourless. One small pump is enough.
As adviced by an experienced user, I daubed one pump of gel twice a day for the 14 days trial, once in the morning and before going to bed.
The process; after washing face, dab on toner, then Cellnique gel before applying moisturiser and make-up as usual.
Waaah... so much to do eh. But after 14 days, can just apply the gel once a day or twice a week or as needed.
But i think for a hard case like mine... I may need more 'twice a day application' days.
There is a slight tightening feeling after application, but it's too mild for me to really notice as I'm usually in a hurry. No cooling sensation or anything though.
As of now, am not totally in love with this gel yet... but it sure helps my nose look less monstrous haha... we'll see after 1 bottle is finish.
So how much is it? Forgot actually hehhe... but ranging from RM110 - RM140.
Any of you tried this product before? What's your testimony?
*I'll share an update on how long the bottle lasted me and on how my nose is doing and whether I am persuaded to buy a second one after I finish this first bottle :)*

normally what i see in a blog is photo first then follow by the story. lol.. i tot it was someone's nose. turned out , it's yours!.. hehehe
well, to have a better photo, or for your nose comparison, you must make sure the flash exposure is the same for before and after.
frankly, i dont see any difference...for now :) coz it has different photo exposure. -

Hi Syura: Entering 4th week I think now... so far so good :) Pores look much smaller now. No more blackheads... but the whites are pretty stubborn, but at least verry fine compared to before.
