Back in October, when I walking around the booths at Giftopia's event, I spotted a familiar brand that I really love! That brand is Que Origin, and I fell in love with their very first products back when I was reviewing their Natural Shower Bath. You may view my review of them here!

I love the scent of this, and it leaves a light scent on the skin after use. Initially, when I first used it, I applied it on wet skin and tried to scrub but the product would simply just slide off the skin, making it very hard to use the product properly. It was only until I used it on dry skin then the scrubbing potential was unleashed!
To illustrate how effective the scrub is, I tested it on the back of my hand with 3 types of makeup: foundation, waterproof & smudge-proof eyeliner and blush.
The finer grains are very effective at scrubbing away all 3 types of makeup and I believe that it is the finer grains that would work well at cleansing and polishing away all the dead skin cells. The bigger grain only managed to remove the foundation and blush but had some spots of the eyeliner left, I personally find that the coarser grains are more effective at improving blood circulation underneath the skin and would work great for areas like the thighs and heels.
Other than that, I would love if the product size was slightly bigger because I foresee myself using it up with less than 10 full body scrubs session.
POTION LOTION BODY
Ever wanted a body lotion that is not greasy and oily yet choose your favourite scent in it? This is it! We present you 3 reasons why Potion Lotion is the answer.
To Use:
Apply right after shower or bath as that is the time where your skin is clean, in need to seal moisture and absorb nutrients. Apply sparingly and layer bit my bit to allow your skin to fully absorb the product. Thus, getting the right Potion plays a greater role than the amount applied.
Give a gentle shake for the Oiless Satin before use to prevent the Arrowroot powder from sitting on the bottom.

Oiless- Lightest in viscosity, but took the longest to be absorbed
Potion 50- The medium of both extremes

As with all of their products, I love the scent of this!Even though I noted that there is a slight difference in scent among the variants, it is nothing major. Potion 100 has a more rounded floral scent compared to Oiless Satin's sharper floral scent. However, what really sold my heart away was how non-greasy their potion lotions are, even the Potion 100.
To decide which variant is ideal for you, I would suggest Oiless Satin if you are constantly outdoor or in a humid environment. Potion 100 if you are constantly indoors with an air-conditioned environment. And lastly, Potion 50 if you are clueless or are in both types of environments.
