Personally I find skin care samples extremely useful. You can test without buying a full size product that could end up unused and being a complete waste of money if it didn't work for you. If you buy asian cosmetics online often you know how easily you can build a sample stash from the freebies.
I've been looking to include some new products to my skincare routine so I've been trying some the samples I already had along with some masks and here are my first impressions of some of them.

Personalmente creo que las muestras de cosméticos son muy útiles. Puedes probar algo sin necesidad de comprar un producto entero que pudieras terminar no usando y siendo un desperdicio de dinero. Si compran cosméticos asiáticos en lÃnea a menudo sabran con que facilidad puedes acumular muchas pruebas gratis.
He estado buscando incluir nuevos productos de cuidado de la piel a mi rutina por lo que he probado muestras que ya tenÃa junto con algunas mascarillas y aquà están mis primeras impresiones de algunas de ellas.

Etude House - Collagen Eye Patch
This patches are in sheet format, come soaked in essence and are intended for your under eye. Here are their claims and I found they do hydrate and tighten the skin, the lines under my eyes got softened too. I didn't saw any changes in my dark circles though and the effect was only temporal.
Would purchase? Maybe, they might work well for special occasions.

Estos parches son de algodón, vienen empapados en esencia y son para el parpado inferior. Aquà está lo que hacen y encontré que sà hidratan bien la piel, las lÃneas debajo de mis ojos se veian menos notorias. Aparte de eso no vi que aclararan mis ojeras y el efecto pareció ser temporal.
Lo comprarÃa? Tal vez, podrÃan funcionar bien para ocasiones especiales.

Missha - Super Aqua D-TOX Peeling Gel
As you might guess from the name this is an exfoliating gel. The gel was clear-whitish and you massage it to remove dead skin. It worked pretty well, I didn't saw any major visible changes on my skin asides very slight brightening but my skin did felt softer to the touch and cleaner. The packet had enough for for 3 uses.
Would purchase? Yes! I really liked the results and the full size bottle is affordable.

Como podran adivinar por el nombre se trata de un gel exfoliante. El gel era transparente-blanquecino y se masajea para eliminar la piel muerta. Funcionó bastante bien, no noté algún cambio visible pero mi piel se sentÃa mucho más suave y limpia al tacto. El paquete tenÃa suficiente para 3 usos.
Lo comprarÃa? SÃ! Me gustaron mucho los resultados y la botella de tamaño completo es muy económica.

Mizon - Let Me Out Blackhead Peel-Off Mask
This mask is very similar to the popular Biore pore strips (reviewed here) that remove blackheads and other gunk out of your pores, it works exactly the same. It did remove blackheads but not all of them, I'd say around 550-60% of them only.
Would purchase? No. I finally realized that this kind of stripes are way too harsh for me and even if they weren't the effectiveness wasn't that good.

Esta mascarilla es muy similar a las populares banditas de Biore para los poros (reseña aquÃ) que eliminan los puntos negros y otras imperfections, funcionan exactamente igual. Elimino algunos puntos negros pero no todos, yo dirÃa que alrededor del 50% a 60% de ellos solamente.
Lo comprarÃa? No, finalmente me di cuenta de que este tipo de bandas son demasiado irritantes para mà y aunque no lo fueran la eficacia no fue tan buena.

Hanyul - Rice Essential Moisture Cream
I hadn't heard much about Hanyul until recently so I was happy to rediscover this sample. This cream was very light, similar to a lotion. It was moisturizing but not as you would expect from a cream and not enough for my dry winter skin. It felt nice in general. The packet had enough for 1 use only.
Would purchase? Maybe, I think this might work great for summer when my skin is not as dry.

No habÃa oÃdo mucho sobre Hanyul hasta hace poco tiempo, asà que me alegre al ver que tenÃa esta muestra. Esta crema es muy ligera, similar a una loción. Es hidratante, pero no como lo esperaba de una crema y no lo suficiente para mi piel en invierno. Se sentió bien en general. El paquete tenÃa suficiente para sólo 1 uso.
La comprarÃa? Tal vez, creo que podrÃa funcionar muy bien en verano cuando mi piel no es tan seca.

Sulwhasoo - Snowise EX Ginseng Exfoliating Gel
This gel is the kind that has small particles to physically exfoliate your skin as you massage it. It was yellowish and had a strong herbal scent. Given that Sulwhasoo is a premium brand I expected to see great results but I didn't saw any changes at all asides cleansing, maybe it's too gentle for me. The packet had enough for for 3-4 uses.
Would purchase? No. For me it wouldn't be worth the price, there were no visible benefits at all. A better option would be the Missha one above.
Hope it was useful and until next time!

Este gel es el tipo que tiene partÃculas pequeñas para exfoliar fÃsicamente tu piel a medida que masajeas. Era de color amarillento y tenÃa un fuerte olor herbal. Teniendo en cuenta que Sulwhasoo es una marca premium esperaba ver grandes resultados pero no vio ningún cambio aparte de limpiar, tal vez es demasiado suave para mÃ. El paquete tenÃa suficiente para 3-4 usos.
Lo comprarÃa? No. Para mà no valdrÃa la pena el precio, no hubo beneficios visibles en absoluto. Una mejor opción serÃa el de Missha arriba.
Espero que haya sido útil y hasta la próxima!
