So... Cut the story short, I had wanted to review on my MAC Bronzing powder but something came into the picture instead that made me want to review this before my MAC. There's this brand from Japan that recently hit the Singapore market. What caught my attention was their intensive advertising done at all the MRT stations (Marketing team, if you see this, your advertising effort works!). So what brand is it? It is ..... ORBIS. What drawn me to it then? Well, I am a sucker for Japanese related products/services. Japanese always have this very strong market in terms of skincare and beautifying and somehow, the word 'Japanese' gave me the confidence to try it out.

Isn't that fascinating enough? =)
A friend recently told me she purchased collagen from Orbis and I was like.. 'OH GOSH, I HAD WANTED TO TRY THEIR PRODUCTS!' and so, on one fine Sunday evening, she brought me to the counter. Boy, am I overwhelmed by the products that lie ahead of me. I walked home with many products that day but let me just focus on one of the products for today and that is the Orbis Aqua Peeling Gel.
The sales personnel squeezed a sample on my hand and within 5 seconds of rubbing, I could see so much dead skin coming out!
Here's a picture of how the product looks like:
It's a clear gel form and look what happened after rubbing it on my hand for just 5 seconds:
Saw the dead skin? It came out very easily!
I just tried it out on my face and neck while in the shower earlier on and I must say, I'm loving this a lot! This is a very awesome product to use before your facial masks as it removes the dead skin and enables better absorption of your masks. Without removal of dead skin, you won't be able to absorb the nutrients in your masks fully as there will always be a barrier sitting on your skin.
Now, a closer look at its packaging.
The ingredient that I always trusted is Hyaluronic Acid. It is a very important factor in my daily skincare products. I even read a website that describes Hyaluronic Acid as a 'Fountain of Youth'. Indeed, no dry feel after using and my face felt moisturised and soft. I think I shall mention about Hyaluronic Acid on a separate post and not snatch the limelight off my new-found love - Orbis Aqua Peeling Gel.
This product is very reasonably priced at SGD $26.50 and can be bought at two outlets currently:
ROBINSONS ORCHARD (THE HEEREN)
260 Orchard Road
Singapore 238855
Tel: 6836 2837
BISHAN JUNCTION 8
9 Bishan Place, #01-46
Singapore 579837
Tel: 6334 2768
They do not have a membership scheme yet for the Singapore market as it is a very young market. I'm hoping more can get to know of this brand and soon, I believe a membership scheme will come in place so that not only are we buying the products, but we will actually enjoy some good benefits from supporting the brand! =)
Together with this Aqua Peeling Gel, I've also gotten myself the Sebum Control Essence and Meal Replacement which I will review on a separate post after I've personally tried them out.
Drop by any Orbis counters to understand more. I'm sure the sales assistant will be more than glad to assist you! ;)
