Brilio.net - In skin care, moisturizer is a product that should not be missed. Various types of moisturizers are available on the market, but recently gel moisturizers have become increasingly popular, especially among skincare lovers who want products with a light texture and are easy to absorb.
In contrast to thicker creams, gel moisturizers usually contain more water, so they provide a cool sensation when applied and do not leave a sticky feeling. This type of moisturizer is very suitable for oily and combination skin, but can also be used by all skin types, especially in hot and humid tropical climates like Indonesia.
In addition, some gel moisturizers claim to have a non-comedogenic formula. The light texture means that the gel moisturizer does not clog pores, making it suitable for skin that is prone to acne and oily skin.
There are various kinds of gel moisturizer products circulating on the Indonesian beauty market. Now the mosturizer gel products that are going viral are The Originote Cica-B5 Soothing Moisturizer, The Originote Hyalucera Moisturizer Gel, and GLAD2GLOW Glad To Glow Centella Allantoin Soothing Gel.
The three products that were viral then attracted a beauty enthusiast, namely SkinOppa, to review and conduct product battles. The three products that have been used are then dissected one by one.

At the start of uploading the video on its YouTube channel, skinoppa compared the product The Originote Cica-B5 Soothing Moisturizer with The Originote Hyalucera Moisturizer Gel.
The Originote Hyalucera Moisturizer Gel has the ability to repair the skin barrier. This product contains active ingredients in the form of ceramide and hyaluronic acid . There is no clear measurement for these two ingredients regarding the percentage of content present.

The shortage of The Originote Hyalucera Moisturizer Gel made the brand re-produce it in 2023. The new formula of The Originote Hyalucera Moisturizer Gel actually makes the skin hydrated and moisturized.
Meanwhile, The Originote Cica-B5 Soothing Moisturizer product is formulated to treat facial acne. The active ingredients in The Originote Cica-B5 Soothing Moisturizer are centella asiatica and panthenol.
"I've only been using it 10 days, so I can share, it has oil control benefits and will make oily skin shine-free," he explained.
This product has a soft gel texture and high hydration level when used on oily and combination skin. However, for those of you who have dry skin, these two The Originote products seem less effective. But this suitability depends on each skin type.
"The contents are the same, 50 ml, both cost under IDR 50 thousand. In my opinion, it's worth trying. In my opinion, The Originote Hyalucera Moisturizer Gel is more effective," he added.

In the middle of the video, Skinoppa shares the product battle The Originote Cica-B5 Soothing Moisturizer and GLAD2GLOW Glad To Glow Centella Allantoin Soothing Gel. Both have the same content, namely centella asiatica or gotu kola. These two products have the same texture and color.
Even though it has the same texture and color, GLAD2GLOW Glad To Glow Centella Allantoin Soothing Gel has deeper hydrating abilities. Meanwhile, The Originote Cica-B5 Soothing Moisturizer has moisture that disappears quickly. Even so, both products are still effective for use on acne-prone and oily skin. However, it all depends on the type of skin each individual has.
"You must use moisturizer. Choose a moisturizer that suits your skin type or skin condition," explained skinoppa.
