Hello Girlfriends!
Yes another review for this week, yey!
Have you ladies wonder why your pores are getting bigger and more visible, to the point that you don’t need a microscope to see it?
Yeah, I always wander back then. I told myself, maybe my beauty routine isn’t enough. So I hunted for the most effective way to make my pores tighter and smaller.
Going for a facial is not yet my option, because to be honest having a facial is quite expensive. You’ll spend a thousand bucks for a few minutes session, and it doesn’t guarantee that your issue will be gone unless you book for another 2 to 3 sessions, then you’ll see the difference (imagine the total costs for that).
Besides, I still believe there should be a beauty product that could save me from my pore issue. It is impossible that there is NONE, knowing how much vain people are nowadays, especially here in Asia.
So going out for facials is off the list, then a few months ago I decided to visit SM Mall of Asia and partake myself for a “beauty trip” – visiting new beauty shops, and browse its products and report back, blah, blah, blah.
*****
While walking, I suddenly thought about my sink that was clogged days ago (you know, due to washing dishes, blah, blah).
If you have someone cleaning your home, maybe you might not get relate to what I’m going to tell you now.
No one is more irritating in the morning than a clogged sink.
The feeling of you have a lovely 8-hour sleep, but then you need to rush at work, but you don’t want to leave dirty dishes so you’ll wash it first and tidy up, then shit your sink is clogged again!
My fault coz there have I accidentally washed all my dishes without filtering first.
I’m always in a hurry and damn got too lazy or overlooked something.
It’s really irritating!
So I unclogged my sink using my favorite cleaner (thank God they are awesome and smells effin good!) checking every corner, then it’s good to go.
I have a functional sink again, and the waters are flowing freely down my pipe!
I’m an awesome homemaker…. Yeah sometimes, lol.
I suddenly realized, if I could unclog my own sink, I could also do that to my clogged pores!
Clogged pores are becoming bigger and oilier, because of dirt that’s been stocked in our pores, including all those sebum/residues from our facial soaps that we are using. Pores are getting bigger and bigger giving spaces and welcoming that dirt.
Eeeeewww!!!
At that moment, I was in front of Beauty Bar, and I saw this CURE Natural Aqua Gel. And I will tell you this – it got me.
I felt like there is a magnet, trying to pull me inside that store and grab that product, without thinking twice and leave.
And I did.
I realized I need this facial cleanser/exfoliators to clean out my pores issues.
Heard a lot of positive review and testimonials about this exfoliator but I thought I should try it myself.
It is rumors that CURE Natural Aqua Gel exfoliator bottles sells every 12 seconds, and it is very famous here in Asia. If this sells faster than hotcakes then this product doesn’t just promise…
So I bought it for Php1,500 (approx. $32) and the beauty assistant gave me a free CURE Water Treatment hand cream! Such a good deal and sweet!
CURE Natural Aqua Gel does an amazing job on my face. This is an exfoliator that gently peels off dirt and dead skin cells while massaging your face. You won’t feel any irritation or see any redness while it is working, only you’ll feel a little grossed to see your face peeling. The more it peels off means the more dirt our face has and it needs to be cleaned.
How to use CURE Natural Aqua Gel?
After removing your make-up and washing your face with your usual facial cleanser, dap your face with a dry towel. Then pump some CURE Natural Aqua Gel on your palm (just 2 pumps are enough for the entire face). Then massage the aqua gel on your face for few seconds, then you’ll see it started peeling off your dead skin cells.
I took the liberty of capturing myself on video while using CURE, check this out:
After rinsing my face with water, I am surprised how much my face is soooo cleaned and becomes baby smooth again! Yeah, you could see and feel the effect right after your first use.
CURE Natural Aqua Gel is a genius! Totally worth it!!!
This cleanser/exfoliator has no preservatives, no fragrance at all, no artificial coloring, and no alcohol – and 90% water which adds popularity. Since this formula is free from those mentioned, this is definitely suitable for any skin type.
But to be honest, every time I saw this in my bathroom, there are times that I feel off or smirk to this product.
Honestly, the first time I saw this on the beauty counter, I initially thought: “Damn this formula is so cool and kind of naughty.” Why? The solution looks like my joy juice!
I even showed it to my Italian boyfriend, and he laugh about it… he agrees with my funny and witty thoughts :D
CURE Natural Aqua Gel exfoliator is made in Japan and is distributed in most beauty counters and also online. Here in the Philippines, it is available in all Beauty Bar stores. One bottle costs Php1,500 (US$32) for 250grams, but when I searched it online, this costs US$44 in the US. Oops!
I love this exfoliator and for now, I’m going to continuously and religiously use it. Ideally, you use this twice a week, but I personally use this every one day. It doesn’t harm my face, on a contrary, this makes my skin even glowing :D
You can also use it on other parts of your body – on your arms, body, and your legs!
Have you tried this NUMBER ONE EXFOLIANT Skincare product, CURE Natural Aqua Gel? How’s your experience? Share your stories here! I would love to know yours :D

You have beautiful skin. I've always struggled with mine, even seeing a dermatologist and getting professional treatments. I didn't wear a stitch of makeup this summer, washed twice daily (I've always done that) and have been giving myself masks and I seem to have a more clear complexion. This stuff looks amazing!
ReplyDeleteThank you Julie, yeah you should it. Suitable in all skin-type :D
DeleteHave you noticed any difference in your pores? Do you have a before and after by chance?
ReplyDeleteYeah it made it my open pores smaller and tighter... before if it very visible like even two feet away, LOL its crazy.. now it looks better, and no more oily cheeks :D
DeleteI am definitely going to have to try this out! I feel like my pores just keep getting bigger and bigger as I get older!
ReplyDeleteHahaha I have that feeling too back then. Now I'm more confident to go bare face. Try it!
DeleteLooks like a great product! My skin is super sensitive so I would have to read the labels thoroughly before trying them. They look great though!
ReplyDeleteThis gel is made of natural ingredients, well so far I haven't experience any itch or rashes.. none!
DeleteI can't believe it costs almost $50 year in the US. For that price it must be AMAZING! I will admit your skin looks great after you used it!
ReplyDeleteThank you Roxy!
DeleteThis is interesting. I use doTERRA's skin care line and have seen improvement. I haven't heard of this before. I'll have to look into it.
ReplyDeleteThat's great! Thank you Jill!
DeleteGreat that you're very positive about it. I always enjoy trying out new beauty products! I had never heard of the CURE Natural Aqua Gel before. I'll check if it's available in Europe as well.
ReplyDeleteHello Carola - I believe you can also get it via Amazon.
DeleteNever heard of Aqua gel but it looks great after reading your review. Is it available in the US?
ReplyDeleteYes it is available, via Amazon.
DeleteIs it helpful for all skin types?
ReplyDeleteYes it is. This cleanser is for all skin type. I'm a dry to oily skin, and this works on me.
DeleteVery cool. I think a good cleanser is always important to any beauty routine.
ReplyDeleteI agree! Thanks Valerie
DeleteI love reading the review posts.the video is awesome. Thanks for sharing this. Clogged pores are a major problem.
ReplyDeleteThanks Laveena, a little natural help won't hurt :D
DeleteSounds like you really got a good deal there. Your skin doesn't look clogged in the first place but it is still good to have it unclogged once in a while.
ReplyDeleteYeah I agree. But total cleansing is a secret for a good skin. If you have a good and clean skin, no need for applying tons of make-up and contouring :)
DeleteThis looks like such an innovative product! I'm intrigued to try it out!
ReplyDeleteHello Shane, yeah better try it for yourself and see if this suits you. This is available also via Amazon.
Deletewow the product do magic. nice recomendation
ReplyDeleteThank you Pamela :D
DeleteI never struggled with large pores until recently. This seems like a good product that would work really well!
ReplyDeleteHello Krystal,
DeleteYou may use this like twice a week at least.. mine I use regularly because of so many pollutants here in my city.
I just stick to essential oils on my face! Have you tried using them as an alternative for face wash?
ReplyDeleteHi Divya,
DeleteI did and it's also great! However, I can't stand the scent sniffing right under my nose. So I switch to unscented oils.
I'm really bad in the beauty department. I never take the time to give my skin a -proper- daily routine. I've always been blessed to not have acne problems and definitely take that for granted.
ReplyDeleteAcne is kind of worst, and its good that you don't have that problem :) But taking care of skin is a preparation for our future looks. In my case, I am aiming to still look young even when I reached my prime age. That means something for me :)
DeleteGreat result. I have seen this around and tried once love the effect too.
ReplyDeleteHahaha! Now that I found this exfoliator that suits me, its always in my beauty shopping list. A must-buy!
DeleteSeem a good products. I looking for products that really can clear my pores and seem I found this. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteHello Betty,
DeleteYeah it is made all natural, and 90% made of water. Or you can ask the beauty counter for a sample pack. They give it for FREE.
I don't think I have seen this in my country. But if it can help my pores I'm gonna hunt them lol. I'm currently using b.liv shrink and tighten serum, so let's see if this one works first
ReplyDeleteYou should try! Ohh how's the b.liv? If its good I would like to hunt it too and try :D
DeleteI've heard so much about this! But it's pretty pricey for me so I won't have the chance to try it out. But it looks really good!
ReplyDeleteHello Audrey,
DeleteIf you want to try it and not yet sure if its worth it, you can ask for a sample pack from CURE beauty counter. They give it for FREE. :D
I am definitely going to have a look in to this, as my pores are really clogged.
ReplyDeleteHello Dannii,
DeleteYeah and its all natural, wont hash your skin. You can try it first to your arms and legs :D
Your skin looks so radiant and clear after using it.
ReplyDeleteThank you Pooja! Yeah it is, now I'm loving this exfoliator.
DeleteIt's kind of big bottle. How many ml is it?
ReplyDeleteits 250grams, and you can you could finish it till 4 months. Saves a lot!
Deletewow it looks great.. we dont get this product in India :(
ReplyDeleteOh you can order it online!
DeleteHey, i have this at home too! Love it. The satisfaction when your dead skin flakes away
ReplyDeleteHello Aliza,
DeleteIt's good right?! Welcome to CURE club! LOL
Is this a sponsored post? Your skin looks great, I can't imagine you ever having visible pores girl!
ReplyDeleteHaha nope this is NOT a sponsored post.
DeleteI bought this product because I've heard a lot of good reviews about it, and also had a problem with my pores. Even its a little pricey, its okay because its worth it.
If they will sponsor me for supply, then I will accept it! lol I can't say no for gifts :)
Looks pretty amazing.. I want to go look for it too... thanks for the recommendation
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome Meira :)
DeleteI have been using it for years. nice product it is.
ReplyDeleteI considered myself a newbie user of this and I am very glad I found it. Its amazing that it thoroughly cleanses my face. And it's so gently to use.
DeleteJoy Juice ? lol Interesting product I need to look for something like this here in SA.Love the lil video clip.
ReplyDeleteJoy juice, LOL oopps, this is something NSFW term. You can guess *wink
DeleteSeems like an awesome product!
ReplyDeleteYour review is so well done.Huge packs like this saves on cost too.
Exactly! For every wash, I've only consumed two pumps, and until now I haven't finished half of it. :) Truly savvy!
DeletePlease tell me this is available in Australia *frantically googles...* I hate having large pores, and I suffer most around my nose area. Love that it's natural too!
ReplyDeleteSeems like a new brand in the market? Looks like a super find!
ReplyDeleteThe labels says you can consumed the whole bottle for 4-months, and I think I will consume it more than that... maybe 6 months!
DeleteDo they sell in Malaysia as well? This product looks soooo good =D Want to try it too to get pores free dkin too!!
ReplyDeleteHello Sharon, I believe it is also available in Malaysia. Do you know the Singaporean blogger Bon Qiu Qiu? She's also raving about it I think a year ago, and that's when I got curious about it. It works on me :)
DeleteI have seen this product and it looks pretty decent. Might try out.
ReplyDeleteYou should dear!
DeleteI enjoyed reading your review. This looks like a very good product to have a smoother skin. I wonder if I could find it in Italy too...
ReplyDeleteHello Paola, you can order it online via Amazon.
DeleteI hate going to parlors and salons...for the mere fact that they are so time consuming and they try and talk you into trying other stuff. But when you can do something cool for your skin at home, I am all for it! :D
ReplyDelete... and no need to give tips! Saves us more money :)
Deletesounds a great product concerning the weather down here in my country. unfortunately i havent seen this down here.
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting :) You can also grab this online, via Amazon.
DeleteI'm looking for something similar to take care my pores, will check out this product :)
ReplyDeleteYeah you should Ivy. If you are in Asia, it is available at most beauty stores.
DeleteThe product seems good. Big pores are really common and difficult to get rid of. Coming up with a good product can be a task.
ReplyDeletePores only get bigger and bigger (like a tunnel, lol) when it is clog and the dirt's are stacked, like pipelines. So it is better to get rid of it, by using this type of exfoliator, to cleanse our skin.
DeleteCool, I would love to give this a go - I wonder if they sell it in Germany. Frankly I suddenly noticed my pores last year some time - never had a prob with them before and now I think they've gotten worse. Must be city pollution.
ReplyDeleteHello Erin,
Deleteyeah you can get it via Amazon.
I love this brand but it's very expensive to be honest! Feel painful for my wallet every single time lol
ReplyDeleteHello Arisa,
DeleteYeah quite expensive but in a long run it is not. I mean I could finished this more than 4-months and so, and in my opinion buying it is cheap.
I can't compromise buying inexpensive products then only to consume for a month and so and got giving me the expected result. This is better!
wow can it make my pores smaller! i will try every product that claims it can just coz i can't stand my large pores.
ReplyDeleteHello Leona,
DeleteYeah it did made my pores smaller and tighter, its crazy but you better tried it. I even use it to scrub my armpit, and my whole body, OMG its refreshing!
Do you know any stores here in the Philippines that distribute legit CURE Natural Aqua Gel product? May you please suggest it to me? Thank you so much!
ReplyDeleteHello there!
DeleteI've got my CURE Natural Aqua Gel from Beauty Store shop with branch in SM MOA. Most of SM Malls have that Beauty Store shop. I don't know others who distributes legit CURE. Just buy only at that shop :D
Sorry, correction - the store name is called, BEAUTY BAR! :D
