About Amethystory
Amethystory Logo
The main ingredient in Amethystory is amethyst. Amethyst is often believed to be a natural tranquilizer for dispelling intoxication, relieving stress, soothing irritation, balancing mood and inspiring the intellect.

Amethyst is well-known as a natural aid for our body. It produces small, detectable magnetic field & emits beneficial far infrared radiation & negative ions that enhance circulation, promote anti-oxidation & rejuvenate skin cells, all of which are essential to help smoothen & beautify skin.

A coveted gem desired for its power to heal and rejuvenate, this purple quartz gemstone, Amethyst, is uniquely incorporated into the latest skincare series from Amethystory which contains real amethyst granules with triple functions: Cell-rejuvenation, anti-oxidation & promotion of micro blood circulation for a healthier and more luminous skin.

What's more? Its endorsed by Taiwan celebrity Cynthia Wang/王心如! She's so pretty! Remember her role as Shan Shan in Devotion 阿娣?

Here are the products that I received for review.

Amethystory Mineral Aqua Gel $24.90

amethystory aqua gel

Product Claims:

No colouring, no fragrance, this gentle formula is specially blended with Amethyst, Hyaluronic Acid & Bio Energy Fluid to help enhance the removal of dead, dry & rough skin & promote skin rejuvenation. After removing the dead skin layers that form a barrier, your skin would be in a optimal condition to absorb skincare nutrients!

Instant results after use: skin feels fairer, more hydrated, and clearer. Make up can glide on easier & more lasting with a natural look.

Use the Amethystory Mineral Aqua Gel as a more natural way to improve your complexion!

Directions:

Apply on skin to remove dead skin layers. Use daily on dry skin with dry finger.

Pump a sufficient amount and gently massage in circular motion for around 1 minute. White flakes that appear are the dead skin cells being removed. Rinse off with water or Amethystory Mineral Purify Facial Cleanser after use.

Can be used for face & other parts of body.

My thoughts:

I had high expectations of Amethystory, especially after I have tried many different types of peeling gels. The first time that I tried Amethystory Mineral Aqua Gel, I used it on my face. I really didn't like how it felt because it feels rather sticky even after I rinsed it off. I had to follow up by cleansing my face with Amethystory Mineral Bubble Face Wash.

Since it was stated that it could be used on other parts of the body and my feet needed some pampering so I thought why not try it on my feet. After I finished massaging my left foot and rinse off the impurities, my left foot looked significantly brighter than my right foot. In fact, it looked a bit yellow, similiar to that of jundice. I was so awed by it that I couldn't believe my eyes. After I finished massaging and rinsing my right foot, my right foot now looked brighter than my left foot. It was then that I came to a conclusion - the brightening effect is temporary and that it goes away after a while. Don't get me wrong, it is still brighter than before but not as bright as I have just finished massaging and rinsing off my foot.

I'm giving it 3 stars only because it helps to brighten skin (a little) and that it can be used on other parts of the body apart from the face. I still don't really like it on my face because it just feels too sticky and also because I am required to wash my face with cleanser (an additional step) which other brands of peeling gels don't require me to.

Amethystory Mineral Bubble Face Wash $14.90

amethystory bubble face wash

Product Claims:

Specially blended with 3 exquisite and effective ingredients for your skin - Amethyst, Hyaluronic Acid & Bio Energy Fluid, Mineral Bubble Face Wash is enriched with moisture factors & mineral nutrients to cleanse and remove impurities, dirt & oil from pores. After wash, it would still continue to provide long lasting moisture to the skin.

Regular use of Mineral Bubble Face Wash will polish away dull skin resulting in a smoother and more supple looking dewy complexion.

Directions:

Pump sufficient amount on palm. Smooth it on your face and massage in circular motion to make sure that impurities, dirt and oil are being effectively removed from your skin.

Rinse with water. Gentle for daily use.

My thoughts:

When Brand X came out with a bubble facial wash, it caused such a huge saga. Almost all of my girlfriends, cousins were all telling me that they wanna get it. But I just brushed them off by saying, "Just use a facial wash net.. its the same."

However, when I tried this out, I was sold at how convenient it is to have my cleanser already foamed without me having to do it manually. Speaking of which, Amethystory Mineral Bubble Face Wash is the 2nd foaming cleanser that I have tried. The first foaming cleanser that I have used prior to this is Sebamed Clear Face Antibacterial Cleansing Foam. If I didn't remember wrongly, I used it back when I was in Poly Year 1 or 2 to combat pimples.

Anyway, what I like about Amethystory Mineral Bubble Face wash is that after cleansing, it doesn't make my skin feel tight, neither does it strip my face off its natural oil. In fact, it did leave my face feeling rather smooth to touch.

Scent wise its rather mild. Except that I have to be extra careful not to let it get into my nose if not it would irritate my nose. Blame that on my sensitive nose. Apart from that, I don't see why anyone would not like this face wash.

Amethystory Mineral Aqua Whitening Enhancer $19.90

amethystory enhancer

Product Claims:

This unique formula is specially blended with Amethyst, Tranexamic Acid & Hyaluronic Acid to boost the hydration & whitening of skin & enhance the penetration of skincare products for full absorption.

Regular use of Mineral Aqua Whitening Enhancer will provide skin with minerals for better skin rejuvenation & at the same time lighten complexions evenly for a fairer, radiant and youthful glow.

Directions:

After cleansing, pour an adequate amount onto your palm and gently pat onto face to let it be completely absorbed by the skin. Skin will feel supple and smooth after the Mineral Aqua Whitening Enhancer has been fully absorbed. Skin becomes fairer and more radiant with regular use!

My thoughts:

Although its called an enhancer, but I think that the consistency is akin to that of a face lotion. As compared to face lotions of other brands, Amethystory Mineral Aqua Whitening Enhancer is rather thin. Hence, instead of the recommended way of patting the enhancer onto the face to allow absorption, I pour about 6-8 drops of it onto a cotton pad before swiping it on my face.

I have also tried to pat the enhancer onto my face but somehow it doesn't really absorb into my skin well. I find that it works better if I used cotton pads instead. I might try this with my mask tablets as a lotion mask sometime soon and when I do, I will definitely share my thoughts on how it goes with you girls.

Rating: ★★★☆

Apart from the 3 products that I was sponsored, Amethystory also carries Mineral Purify Facial Cleanser ($8.90) and Eye Contour Brightening Amethyst Roller ($16.90).

While the roller doesn't appeal to me that much, I would love to try out Amethystory Mineral Purify Facial Cleanser with my face wash net. Facial Cleanser fanatic? You bet! I don't know why but I can't seem to stop buying cleansers, especially foaming ones, moisturizing ones and of course, whitening!
