Review: Skincare: Kanebo Blanchir Night Conditioner

August 11, 2007 Paris B 3 Comments

Onto the night regime for the Kanebo Blanchir series of skincare. I use the Blanchir Whitening Night Conditioner. The picture below shows the Moisture version which is for dry skin and maybe more suitable for those in colder climates where the air is drier. Here in Malaysia, its hot and humid so I go with the normal one (the packaging is the same, just that it doesn’t say “Moisture” on the front).

The Whitening Night Conditioner comes in a tub. I don’t usually like creams that come in a tub because of the hygiene factor. Realising this perhaps, Kanebo has included a little spatula with the tub. A flexible plastic ring is included, that you can slip over the top of the tub, with a little slit for the spatula to sit in. Quite ingenious.

The texture of this night conditioner is similar to that of the milky conditioner, except that its thicker. Its almost a gel texture and has a translucent cream shade. This runnier texture means that you end up using less on your face, thereby stretching your dollar. I found that if I put too much, my face felt a bit sticky. So, I only use a tiny little dollop from the spatula, and its more than sufficient to cover my whole face.

What I like about this Night Conditioner is that is makes my face feel so soft after application. It sinks into the skin almost immediately. The next morning when I get up, my face looks dewy and fresh. Its awesome that way!

As for the whitening properties, I have stated before that there are less “whitening” than “brightening” properties. I have been using the entire line for a couple of weeks, and I find it works but I can’t vouch for the brightening qualities of each individual product. However, I love this cream simply because it makes my face feel fresh, moisturised, not oily, soft and dewy. You couldn’t ask for more in a night cream.

A tub retails for RM168 for 40g. It sounds expensive but it will last, simply because of its light texture. You don’t use a lot of it at all. For me, this is a keeper!

Update April 2008: I’m no longer using this as a night cream because I found it too light. I was recommended to layer it over the day moisturiser but I felt it would defeat the purpose. Maybe my skin is getting drier now. I’ve reflected this update in the rating.

Here is the ingredient list collected from this link:

Ingredients:
Ascorbyl Glucoside??Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate??Water, Dimethicone, Butylene glycol, Dipropylene glycol, Octyldodecyl myristate, Rehmannia Chinensis Root Extract, Glycerin, Polyacrylamide, Hydrogenated Lecithin, Isoparaffin, C12-13 Isoalkyl Acid Cholesterol Esters, Cholesterol, Potassium hydroxide, Xanthan gum, POE Laureth, Sambucus nigra flower extract, Carbomer, Triticum Vulgare (Wheat) Germ Oil, Suik Kazura Ekisu (JTN), Ethylparaben, Saxifraga Sarmentosa Extract, Coix Seed Extract, Daucus Carota Sativa (Carrot) Juice, Magnolia Obovata Bark Extract, Alcohol, EDTA, Methyl Serine, Pyracantha fortuneana extract, Licorice(glycyrrhiza glabra) extract

Pros: Light, lasts a long time, leaves face feeling fresh and dewy

    @Tee : “too light” here refers to the texture. I found it too light and not moisturising enough. I did not notice much lightening but I am already quite light skinned.

2022 – Hello World

Instagram @parisbmws – You don’t know what you’re missing

Popped out of my hermitage to visit the amazing Jo Popped out of my hermitage to visit the amazing Jo Malone installation at Mid Valley Megamall 😍 Jo Malone has always made gifting an experience, both for giver and receiver, and this is what their Jobots are here for - to help you find that perfect gift whether for a friend, family, or for yourself each time you manage to dodge the C-bullet 😆
Go check out the Jobots at Mid Valley Megamall Centre Court & experience their signature hand and arm massages, gift boxing, personalised engraving of your perfume bottles & candle jars & play with the vending machine. You could get lucky! 
No prizes for guessing which Jobot installation was my favourite! The one with the dog of course! They also had a key chain with a dog. So. Bloody. Cute!! 
And after so many years finally got a photo with event organizer extraordinaire @cyrus.chin because we didn’t get the white & beige memo and came instead in (unplanned) matching sunny coral instead 😂 
It felt good to have makeup on, dress up and go out for a tiny little bit, and meet people I haven’t seen in literally years! Also to enjoy the scents (hard to smell with a mask on though) and the visual delights. Go check it out. They’re there at the Centre Court until Sunday 3 July.

Not everyday I wear something decent (I still live in crummy t-shirt, shorts & sweaty athleisure most days) so it merited a photo! 😆 
I put on a full face of makeup today and when it came to my eyeshadow, I had a brain fart moment and forgot where they were! 😂 Looked through 3 drawers before I saw them and even then I thought “Did I ever have THIS MANY?!” I guess I do. And before you ask, yes they’re all expired 🫢
