K-Beauty Battle #10 :Corsx Pure Fit Centella Cream vs Cosrx Centella Blemish Cream
It's been ages since my last K-beauty battle and today, I'm back with an exciting battle.
Today's contenders are two of Cosrx's Centella products, one of which I've claimed as my ultimate Centella product for years.
About Cosrx
If you're new to Korean skincare, Cosrx is probably one of the first brands that you'll get introduced to. As a well-acclaimed Korean skincare brand, they target skincare concerns through various product collections. Many of their products have achieved cult-favourite status because they are so well-loved by the Korean beauty community.
About Centella Asiatica
Comparisons:
Texture + Application
The biggest distinction between the two is their texture.
Unlike its name, the texture of the Pure Fit Centella Cream is remotely similar to a cream. I'd say that this is more of a gel, considering that it is translucent and lightweight. When applied, it's refreshing on the skin and absorbs nicely.
The Centella Blemish Cream, however, is heavier and oilier. This why I use this for night treatments only. It's difficult to blend and I prefer leaving it as small dots on top of the blemishes that I'm trying to target. If blended, this leaves a white cast on the skin and can get tacky.
Verdict: I'd recommend using the Pure Fit Centella Cream for daytime use and the Original Centella Blemish Cream for night time treatment.
Packaging
Effectiveness:
When it comes to soothing the skin and fading acne scars, the original blemish cream has impressively proven its effectiveness to me numerous times. I fell in love with it after my first use because this worked so well in reducing the appearance of my acne scars. The Cosrx Blemish Cream has the additional benefit of reducing acne.
The Pure Fit cream doesn't claim to fade scars, but it works well in soothing the skin. Unlike the Cosrx Blemish Cream, the Pure Fit Cream also helps to hydrate the skin.
But let's dive in a bit deeper. In terms of ingredients, the Pure Fit Cica Cream is better for people with sensitive skin. This cream has completely EWG safe. The Blemish Cream, on the other hand, contains Tea Tree Oil which can irritate the skin.
Verdict: If you're looking for a cream that soothes and helps with acne scars, the Centella Blemish Cream is my choice.
Price
For my Singaporean readers, the Cosrx Centella Blemish Cream is available at Watsons stores and retails for SGD$30.90. It's definitely quite pricey, but you can get this cream for cheaper through Shopee.

Verdict: Both do similar damage to my wallet...so, It's a tie.
Overall
Both products have their own unique purpose. If you're wondering which one to get, my question for you is: what skin concerns are you targeting?
The Blemish Cream is good for reducing acne and acne scars efficiently. The Pure Fit Cica Cream is great for hydrating and soothing the skin. It can be used as both a day and night moisturiser.
Thanks for reading and I hope this was useful.
