Naruko Raw Job's Tears Supercritical CO2 Pore Minimizing & Brightening Essence

 



Pricing/Packaging:

30ml (1.05fl.oz) for ~33$. US shoppers can find it here. This product comes in a good quality tinted glass pump bottle, which will help keep active ingredients intact. Also I do like this packaging from an aesthetic point of view as well.

CeraVe PM Facial Moisturizing Lotion





Packaging/Pricing:


89ml (3fl.oz) for ~11-16$. Opaque plastic pump bottle will keep ingredients safe from sun and air exposure.

Ingredients:


Water, Glycerin, Caprylic/Capric Triglycerides, Niacinamide, Behentrimonium Methosulfate, Cetearyl Alcohol, Ceteareth-20, Cetearyl Alcohol, Ceramide 3, Ceramide 6-II, Ceramide 1, Phytosphingosine, Hyaluronic Acid, Cholesterol, Dimethicone, Polyglyceryl-3 Diisostearate, Potassium Phosphate, Dipotassium Phosphate, Sodium Lauroyl Lactylate, Disodium EDTA, Methylparaben, Propylparaben, Carbomer, Xanthan Gum.

Excellent (very beneficial ingredients, proven research)
Good (mostly beneficial ingredients, not extensive research available or just not quite outstanding properties)
OK (mostly thickeners, emulsifiers, mild preservatives, pH adjusters, all that is necessary formulation wise, but not a skincare per se) 
Bad (anything that shouldn't be in skincare, irritants and fragrance)

Naruko Am+Pm Super Triple HA + B3 Brightening Complex



Packaging/Pricing:

 

30ml (1.05fl.oz) for 35$ (naruko). It is not a cheap product, but it is still affordable, considering they always offer promotions on the website. Opaque tube is perfect for storing a serum. Overall design is sleek and minimalistic. I have to mention that the outer packaging (paper cylinder) is rather cool looking.
