A while ago, I received an email from Q-Depot.com offering to send me a korean skincare product for my review. Being a huge fan of Korean cosmetic and skincare, naturally, I could not say no. So I asked the product to be sent to me, and I received it within 2 weeks.


For those who do not know, Q-depot.com is an established online store offering a wide variety of high quality Korean cosmetics and skincare for wholesale or retail consumers worldwide. All their products are shipped directly from their warehouse in Korea and all purchases on Q-depot are guaranteed to be 100 % authentic, new and without defects and damages.


Q-depot offers one of the largest Korean cosmetics and skincare online with 30,000+ products from over 60+ brands. But the best thing is they offers a 30 days free return policy with no questions asked. Return is  accepted at their cost if any items you received is damaged, defective or incorrect. Return is also accepted for other reasons, but at your cost. But please make sure the products are new and unopened.

Free shipping is available for orders over US$49. For orders below US$49, shipping is fairly affordable. Flat rate shipping fee starts from US$2.99 will be applied for Asia and US$ 4.49 for US, Canada and Europe, regardless of weight and the number of items you purchased.

But what impressed me the most is their strong sense of social responsibility. The company will donate 3% of their net profit to the under-privileged in different countries. This means that the more you buy from them, the more you will help the needy people.

The Face Shop Arsainte Eco Therapy Extreme Moisture Aqua Radiance Cream

For my review, I received the Face Shop Arsainte Eco Therapy Extreme Moisture Aqua Radiance Cream. The product is packaged nicely in a box and is shipped directly from Korea. It took slightly over a week for the package arrive.

A few years back, I have wrote a review for the Face Shop Arsainte Eco Therapy Extreme Moisture Essential Cream. To be honest, I did not like the product at all because it smell strongly of fragrance. thus might not be suitable for people with sensitive skin.


The Face Shop Arsainte Eco Therapy Extreme Moisture Aqua Radiance Cream formulated with Bamboo and Wild Pansy extract, which are believed to help retain moisture and provide nutrients to the skin. It is free from 7 harsh chemicals - Paraben, colorings, alcohol, raw animal ingredients, benzophenone, mineral oil and triethanolamine. But unfortunately, it is not fragrance free.


The cream comes in a small glass-like pot containing 80 ml of the product. The glass jar is quite thick, which makes it durable enough to survive most of the fall. Despite being small in size, the glass jar is quite bulky and might not be travel friendly.


As for the texture of the cream, it is rich and thick with a runny consistency, so a small dab of it actually goes a long way. My face actually feels a little greasy after application, thus might not be suitable for people with combination or oily skin, especially those who live in a hot and humid country.

However, it should works great for people with extremely dry skin. The cream is very moisturizing and leaves skin looking clear and glowing. Despite its thickness, the cream is easy to spread and absorbed by the skin.

Will I recommend this product to anyone? Well, probably not, since I am really not a fan of it. Even so, I still recommend checking out Q-depot.com if you are a huge fan of Korean skin care and cosmetics.
