Okay, this is another skin care line I've heard about recently and I was just wondering if anyone else has heard of it or used it before? It's called Dr. Ci: Labo Medical Cosmetics, and it only seems to be sold in Asia (Tokyo and Hong Kong) and it also has a location at the Hyatt in Hawaii.
The product that interests me is the Aqua Collagen Gel which I've read can be used as a toner, cream and a base! It supposedly maintains moisture and is especially recommended for dry elbows, knees or cuticles during the winter. I have no idea what the prices are though!
Has anyone else heard of this line or tried it? I'd be interested to learn more about the products and whether they actually work.

Oh, and apparently there's supposed to be a version with Aloe Vera that's good for sunburns without peeling and if you keep it refrigerated, it can be used to prevent itchinesss for longer periods of time!
I'll post if I hear anything new about these products! |

Mel,
Dr. Ci: Labo is the lastest rave in Taiwan as well. Heard a lot of good things about their products. Also heard they may be available in NY in the future.
I have heard tons of rave for this brand and albion. Very tempting... |

Here's the website, to find out product info, it's probably best to look under "English" on the main page and go from there.
http://www.ci-labo.com/
The online shop under the USA link is all written in Japanese, so no help there! but it does have the prices listed there, so that helps! Oh, and they seem to have several stores in HK, so it should be easy enough for you to find, aprilha!
Also, for those of you in the US, you can get free samples, unlucky for me I live in Canada!
Let me know how the products work out if any of you get to try them! My friend lives in Hawaii so if they're worth it, I may get him to send me some! |

I am using it. A clear all in one gel (toner, hydrate & moisturise) actually improves my skin texture. you don't need to apply much in the summer time, sizeof a dime over the face. But it's too sticky for me in the summer. I think it's suitable for normal & comb skin. Not moisturse enough for dry skin in winter.
Their other peeling products are the best I have ever used. |

Where do you get yours? I live in Tokyo at the moment and went looking for it today, but haven't found it yet... |

I am surprised, the product is from Japan.
I bought in Seibu in Hong Kong. Search by the name in Yahoo, may be it'll help |

| I tried it when it first came to Hong Kong last year or so? Personally I do not think it is anything very special. It is a hydrating cream/ gel type moisturiser. That's it. I haven't tried the new version with aloe vera which may be better? |
