Sudden q hand grabbed me. ...from a stall that sell jamu skin care products aka Indonesia based skin care.
One man and a woman start rubbing a white cream on various parts of my hand claiming the cream can removeskim imperfections be it dry skin or rough skin or dark patches etc. Basically a cure all. At their stall they had pictures of really horrible skin problems and the "after: picture showed the skin healed perfectly.
I was tempted because I have a 3mm patch of slightly darker skin on arm that I tried many other creams to no avail. The product is called Lotus Snow.
.
I was interested to try since nothing from pharmacy works.
The man at the shop said 3 tube $80 only. I found it a bit steep ..he threw in an extra tube for free. I said no...he said j an buy just one tube for $25....I decided to walk away as my last impulse buying of super glue after a pasar malam demo did not work out well. As I walked away they kept dropping price until around $15 but I did not turn back.
After that I found the product on shopee ...it sells for 3 tube for $19 with many good reviews.
I decided to buy and try.
It's my 2 week of use.
The cream actually works. ..I am not sure why. Although called hydrating cream, when I apply to the problem area, it seems to cause the skin to die off peel away removing the problem skin.
They are at various places - Shopping center, Parser Malam. Last month they were at Yew Tee Mall. I avoided their stall. Last year I had similar experience. I was stopped and the guy quickly rub the cream on my eyebag. After that he shoved the mirror in front of me and said the skin under my eye looks smoother and cleaner. I told him I don't see the difference and not interested in the product. He then applied the cream on my hand. I told again I don't need it. He then shoved a tube into my hand and say sell you cheap $10 only instead $20. Seeing his persistent and desperation in getting a sales I just take the tube and give him $10.
Please take care to check the expiry date on the fine print 12123022 and the expiry date at the base of the tube 12122023. What they selling you cld expired products which they bought cheap. To get a quick sale they will grab you.
