Cure by Toyo | Aqua Gel Gentle Exfoliator | Clear and Softer Skin | Non-Abrasive Face and Body Cleanser | Sensitive Skin | Big Size 8.82oz

THIS PRODUCT IS AMAZING.When I ordered this product, I had previously done a whole research on Asian skin care products and found out that most of them were really expensive and sometimes didn't even work. So when I came across Cure Natural Aqua Gel on a Youtuber's Channel and found it was really inexpensive, with positive reviews, I was really excited to try it out. It arrived really fast and with no problems. My product was easy to apply since it came with English instructions on the back. When I applied it on my face, slowly and gently massaging it, I felt a bunch of little balls coming off. I was surprised that such a soft and gentle exfoliator could have such an enormous effect, so I checked the product to see if it had any hidden balls within it but found none. So, as I like to think, I conducted a small experiment that goes as follows:"Since some parts of our bodies have higher or lower concentration of dead cells, if I use the same amount of product on these areas I should get a different amount of dead cells. And if I get the same amount of "balls" it means it is all within the product. (Making sense? It does in my head XD)I decided to test two areas: 1) The elbows, 2) The faceWhy? Well, if there is a part of the body people clean(or at least within my family) it's the face. I know I am too lazy to scrub my body every single day and thus my elbows don't get such a nice treatment. Besides, elbows are a joint where skin accumulates, thus more dead cells. ( I am not an expert)Procedure:So I pumped twice and applied it on my elbow which I know has a big concentration of dead cells. And as hypothesized( if you like to think of it that way ;D) a big amount of balls formed. Then, I applied the same amount of product to a part of my dad's face as equal in surface area as that of my elbows (I had already exfoliated mine so it doesn't count). My conclusion was that the product truly works, because the same amount of product generated different amounts of balls, meaning it must have reacted to the skin.It's a weird way of testing it out and I know many factors could have influenced the answers but all you really need as proof, is the feel of your skin.Review:To really appreciate a product I write down my expectations VS. reality and with these, I draw my "real expectations" because having realistic expectations in mind really help to appreciate any product and understand it's value.For me these were my Expectations Vs RealityExpectationsYes, we all have wished our acne would simply disappear, together with the scars and all those skin problems after one application. "My skin will turn to a beautiful and healthy glowing and perfect skin."RealityAfter years of doing nothing to my skin( I am guilty -.-), it won't go away magically, and if it does call me. Skin needs time to repair, so I have to be patient. There is no "perfect" skin so I should love my skin the way it is even though I look like a Mexican version of a vampire.ResultsThe product is as gentle as you want it to be( if your not gentle with your skin you can scar it even more -.- like I did when I exfoliated with sugar and rubbed so hard on my skin). It has only being 2 weeks, and My acne is still there, but it has tremendously dwindled. I used to have acne all over my cheeks and now I only get one pimple every other day. My skin doesn't "glow" in the dark (LOL) but it does look a little more healthy and not so dull. The product has caused no "after effects", it is pleasant to use and has done close to magic for my skin \(^_^)/OVER ALLI am so happy with this beautiful product sent from heaven. I have lived with acne my whole life like a lot of people, and I did my research, bought this product and now I am happy. It is worth every penny, and it does wonders(at least to my face), fast shipping, you name it.I use this product with my skin care routine which is as follows:1) A make up remover (if you wear make up, I don't so I can't recommend any but oils are good too if you want a more natural way)2) A cleanser- use any of your preference, i haven't found a favorite yet.3) An exfoliator- THIS ONE!4) A toner- for this I use half Apple cider vinegar and half water because i don't like the idea of rubbing any alcohol product on my face.5)A moisturizer- Even if I have oily skin, I moisturize my skin(I think is very important but can't tell if it will make it worst for others or not) I recommend Aveeno6) Masks- sometimes I use honey for my red scars, or clay masks work too (Indian Clay)7) A Spray - Avene Thermal Spring water spray is great to keep face moisturize if you don't want to apply face cream often, its a lighter feeling.Sorry for my bad English, Spanish is my first language. This is only my opinion and my craziness :D

I have a VERY sensitive skin. My skin is so sensitive I’m limited to certain product. But THIS is amazing it remove dead skin and doesn’t give me a rash or have my face feeling like I rip a layer off. You would think “oh won’t you breakout the next day?” No as long as u follow the introduction and moisturize. I only use this once a week instead of twice a week since my skins is so sensitive.

Have you ever had a nightmare where you looked into a mirror and watched the skin melt off of your face? This is kind of like that.After trying several products in an attempt to even my complexion and perhaps help make my T-zone look less like a russet potato, I stumbled across this Japanese marvel. After reading several positive reviews across multiple websites, I threw thirty dollars into the internet and received the product less than two days later, presumably delivered via techno-wizardry. My curiosity (CURE-iosity? Get it?) reached a melting point; I had to use it instantly.The first thing you notice is the big blue ambiguous word on the bottle: Cure. If you saw this product on a shelf without researching it first, you would have no idea what it does. Is it hand-soap sponsored by Robert Smith? Is it sanitizer? Is it the cure for EVERYTHING? It also reads in small text 'natural aqua gel', which makes no sense. After using this product, I'm pretty sure that nothing about this product is natural. It's the stuff of witches. Let's squirt some into our hand, shall we?Cure 'Natural' Aqua Gel is a cloudy clear color, and the consistency is that of jello when you take it out of the fridge too early (Stop being so impatient). The product claims to be 90% water; if this is to be believed, I can only assume that the remaining 10% is voodoo magic.I pumped some into my hand and rubbed it on my face; it's unremarkable at first. There's no lather, no cooling or warming sensation, and no little gritty bits scratching your face, as there is in exfoliating scrubs. I'm standing there in the mirror, massaging this smooth, watery goop into my face for about fifteen seconds wondering: "What did I just spend 30 dollars on?". Then it happens.As I massage the gel in circles on my face, suddenly that smooth feeling under my fingers starts to get a bit... gritty. I squeeze a bit more gel on my hands and continue, thinking maybe the gel is coagulating or something. The gritty feeling intensifies, and begins to feel more like i'm massaging rice into my face, and upon leaning closer into the mirror, I have to keep myself from screaming. It's skin. Oh god. THERE'S SKIN EVERYWHERE. I felt like a cicada shedding it's exoskeleton; there was balls of dead skin covering every inch of my face and hands. It's like when you were a kid and got craft glue on your hands, and got it off by rubbing them together. Except it's skin, and it's on your face.I spent the next two or three minutes shouting 'EW' and 'OH GOD IT'S SO GROSS' while continuing to rub my face; by this time it due to morbid fascination rather than desiring even coverage. I eventually couldn't stand the feeling of all the shedded skin on my face and hands anymore, so I leaned down to the sink and washed up. After drying my face, it looked like I just took off a mask; my face was clear, vibrant, soft, and squeaky clean. I put on some lotion and stared at the bottle of hoodoo magic for a bit before setting it on the counter. I've decided i'll always have a bottle of this.I have used it every two or three days for the past month; while I haven't had the same amount of dead skin sloughing off my face as the first time, there's always a good bit, and it's always slightly unnerving. Since then, my face has become soft and silky, free of blemishes entirely, and has started to clear up blackheads as well. It's as effective as it is disturbing, and I highly recommend it to anyone that wants to get real results with an exfoliating product. Just be ready to be grossed out.
