I bought this cream because I thought it was dreamy that its pale lavender color comes from the "bright blue natural pigment of guaiazulene." It seems to remove any yellowness from the skin, leaving it looking beautiful. I've also applied the Merry Fairy Dust Compact (powder), also from Watusa, on top. I don't like the finish of strong skin tones, so this combination is calming. I also love the cute, slim lavender and pink packaging.
I purchased the full-sized product, but first tried using the sample pouch that came with it. I put a little on the back of my hand and spread it, and it was very fine, but the glitter was very strong and it looked very shiny!? I was a bit worried. But when I spread a thin layer on my face, the glitteriness lessened and my complexion became brighter, a slight pink. It gave off a very radiant finish, and when I layered liquid foundation and loose powder on top of that, it created a beautiful finish! It's a light cream that's very easy to spread, and it has just the right amount of moisturizing without being sticky. I would have preferred it to have a stronger sunscreen function, but the feel and finish were better than I expected, so I really liked it♪
I've been a fan of Watusa for a long time. I use noble violet in my foundation, so I bought the primer. It tones up my skin with a pink aurora-like glow. It also has sunscreen properties, gives a thin, veil-like finish, and my foundation adheres perfectly. I wonder if the azulene is to blame for my good condition after cleansing. It was reasonably priced and came with lots of samples, so I'm glad I bought it. I recommend it for combination skin and those who are concerned about makeup breaking down.
I love Watusa's Azulenia Protect Perfection Cream, which soothes rough skin, and when I found out it contains the same azulene, I bought this. The color is a whitish-pink pearl that glows. It doesn't hide dark spots or freckles. For me, I need at least a beige loose powder as a powder foundation. I wonder if people with fair skin can use this alone... The texture is soft and like whipped cream. I have thin skin that's sensitive to irritation, but this doesn't feel rubbing when I spread it, so it feels nice. Because it contains azulene, I feel like it's a primer that I can use with relative peace of mind even when my skin is rough. Even when my rough skin is so rough that I'm afraid to wear makeup, there are times when I need to wear makeup, so it acts as a kind of talisman, like "I'm wearing this, so it won't get worse, everything's okay." I think I'll buy it again.
I received a stick foundation, so I bought a primer (I wanted to match the foundation and primer from the same brand). I was surprised to find that it has an elegant, luminous finish with just the right amount of coverage! I was impressed (it's similar to Chanel's liquid primer "Rose"). It's a pretty perfect primer, and even after a while, it doesn't smudge or come off, even when wiped off with a tissue... I think it's good.
