STEAMCREAM: The Pseudo Review

Bought a tin of STEAMCREAM back in June because it was on sale and I finally finished the tin at long last, which was just as well because the expiry date was last week (there's a sticker on the bottom). 

It's a UK product, imported locally by Serendipity: Cult Beauty Discoveries (which by the way, is a great site to check out) from RM60 each.

STEAMCREAM represents the latest concept in skincare. A longer lasting, intensive and effective moisturiser that is suitable for all skin-types and can be used on face, body & hands.

Natural and revitalising, STEAMCREAM is the ultimate multi-tasking moisture injection. Our unique STEAM process blends fresh, natural and traceable vegan ingredients for a deeper-reaching all-in-one cream.

STEAMCREAM breaks down immediately on contact with the skin, dispersing each ingredient directly to the area it’s designed to benefit. Plant extracts including oatmeal, orange flower water, organic jojoba and lavender oils can reach where they are needed instantly.

One Moisturiser – Many Designs.
STEAMCREAM comes packaged in a Japanese designed, flushed-lid, aluminium tin.Once sold out each eye-catching and constantly changing limited edition tin becomes a collectible and usable piece of art. Handy sized tin for on-the-go lifestyles at an affordable price.

Designed to suit today’s busy lifestyles – convenient to slip in your bag, take to work, the gym, on holidays or just keep at home. And its hand-luggage friendly at just 75g.

While they say it can be used on both face and body, I mainly bought it to use as a face moisturiser. It was a tad too greasy for my own face, so to finish it I've been using it on my body after showering whenever I remember to since, which absorbed way better than my face did. By that extension, it also works great on hands.

I liked the packaging, but I'm not about to start collecting the cute tins. The smell I'm okay with. Not too sure I want to spend over RM50 for a small tin (75ml) of body moisturiser when there are more reasonably priced ones in local drugstores, if you know what I'm saying. Odds of me spending my own money on this again: pretty slim. Not a must have for me, but if you can get it cheap, try it.
