Paul & Joe Brightening Kit 2011

The Paul & Joe Brightening Kit 2011 is now available at Isetan Orchard. I purchased the last set there a couple of weeks ago but when I passed by the counter today, it had received new stocks (not sure about Isetan Scotts and Takashimaya). The set looked like a very worthwhile deal as it includes an Intensive Whitening Essence 100ml, Light Cleansing Milk N 25ml, Refreshing Skin Toner 25ml, Whitening Serum 5ml and a drawstring pouch for just S$66. According to the SA, the Intensive Whitening Essence alone usually costs about S$125. In Japan, the Brightening Kit retails at 5775yen (S$86).

All the products were made in Japan in December 2010 and have a shelf life of 12 months. Paul & Joe's skincare products usually have an orange flower scent.

The Intensive Whitening Essence is a clear liquid that absorbs readily into my skin without any stickiness or shine. I haven't used it long enough to be able to say if it's effective, but I'm hoping that it will help to make my skin more even toned by lightening the skin pigmentation and acne scars.
