Review: Sariayu Martha Tilaar Lotion Jerawat

Still about product of Martha Tilaar..

Before, i've tried the acne care facial foam and it's not bad :-) you can read it here.

Sariayu Martha Tilaar Lotion Jerawat (Acne Care Lotion)

This is an acne care lotion (In Bahasa Indonesia: lotion jerawat) produced by Martha Tilaar. I was attracted to buy this lotion because I was soooo confused of finding some products that will cure my acnes because first, I was still a teenager and that time I thought it was just hormonal acnes. So i would not make my skin heavy of any acne care product. Second, I didn’t have any idea what products I would need. Third, I used to assume that more pricey a beauty product, the higher my skin’s chance got cured.

BUT… Now I know, now I’m more experienced by a method called “trial and error” J I will explain it next time!

Back to topic, it comes with a palm-size bottle sealed by green plastic contains of 100 ml of acne care liquid. 100 ml is pretty much for daily use! This product claims no animal testing and dermatologically tester. There is a cap to cover the flip-top lid.

Covered with green plastic seal

Here’s what the back cover says:

“With fine sulfur and Pegagan to help reduce acnes”

In Bahasa Indonesia: “Mengandung belerang halus dan Pegagan untuk membantu mengurangi jerawat”

Hmm… is it true? :3

See the liquid? It is pink with yellowish granules. I think the yellow ones are the fine sulfur. So you have to shake the bottle before use. Don’t forget to clean your face well first! For optimal result use Sariayu Acne Care Mask and Acne Care Facial Foam (Busa Pembersih Jerawat). Unfortunately, I have spent the whole foam before I bought the lotion X’D

The back side cover...

And here’s the warning:

“May irritate sensitive skin, especially for the first time user. The color might change due to the nature of natural ingredients used without effecting the quality.”

“Hati-hati penggunaan pada kulit sensitif, terutama pada pemakaian tahap awal. Karena kandungan bahan alami, sewaktu-waktu warna bisa berubah tanpa terjadi perubahan kualitas produk.”

I must say the first point is true. It would like sting your acne when you applied the lotion. So my suggestion to you is not to apply on your open wound, I mean open acne. I know you are tempted to pinch those “ripening tomatoes”! I did it too LOL. That would be very very hurt and cause a pus on your acne (In Bahasa Indonesia: jerawat bernanah karena iritasi).

This product is registered on BPOM, and it shows the expired date

Mission: to conquer the tomato twins on my left cheek lol

I tested the lotion to two red “tomatoes” on my left cheek which I guess it caused by mosquito’s bite and i scratched them unintentionally when i slept. After face-washing I wanted to know how it works so I applied it pure without using other product (I usually use Acnes’ *cough cough*) before I went bed. It also has a sense of menthol(?) when it touches your skin.

Comparing: Oct 6 - Oct 26 - Nov 10

As you can see my bare face, there's red area which was also acnes that came out before the 'twins'. I applied the lotion on the all of redness area. Nah, the evidence talks! :D

So here’s my evaluation of Sariayu Martha Tilaar Lotion Jerawat:

Positive Points:

1.      Economical usage.

2.      Cheap, about IDR 25,000,- and you can save your money for months!

3.      Contains sulfur. I heard it’s good for skin problems.

4.      It does reduce your acne.

5.      It has good scent. I don’t know how to describe scents I’m sorry DX

Negative Points:

1.      I doubt about this product availability on another country. I haven’t asked the company.

2.      It may cause an irritation.

3.      It may hurt your skin.

4.      Not travel-friendly. You have to share it in a small bottle.

5.      It may dry your skin.

Scores: 4 of 5 stars

Possibility to repurchase: No, i still have much of it and I’ll use another acne care product of Martha Tilaar :D

Sariayu Martha Tilaar Lotion Jerawat may good for you who:

1.      Looking for cheap but great product!

2.      Loves local product :3

3.      Has no problem with sulfur

4.      Has no sensitive skin

5.      Can deal with scents. It doesn’t too fragrant, anyway.

Sariayu Martha Tilaar Lotion Jerawat may bad for you who:

1.      Has problem with sulfur

2.      Has sensitive skin

3.      Has dry skin, because it may dry your acne area.

4.      Can’t deal with fragrance, though I think it’s not too fragrant.

After Face. I fought the "twins" and won! XD

Review: Sariayu Martha Tilaar Busa Pembersih Jerawat

Speaking of beauty care..

Speaking of beauty care, no matter you are female or male..

You guys are definitely washing your face regulary, right?? XD

I’m going to review one of facial wash product I ever used: Sariayu Martha Tilaar Acne Care Facial Foam aka Busa Pembersih Jerawat (written in Bahasa Indonesia). This is my first time using facial foam from Martha Tilaar (usually I use Acnes’ *cough cough*). The product is produced by PT. Martina Berto, Jakarta, Indonesia.

Here is what the tube look like. Pretty simple!

It comes with white tube and transparent flip-top lid, contains 75 grams of white cream. At the tube front cover you’ll see a white background with picture of Pegagan. Do you know what Pegagan is? Pegagan is the name of plant, vine with edible leaves, often planted on sides of rice field to prevent erosion. It is usually found in every side of rice field so I guess most of us never see that kind of plant as a human living in urban city or even only heard the name =.=”

Helps reduce acne and take care of the skin

It also said: “helps reduce acne and take care of the skin.” Actually I don’t know what Cananga is, since it’s not written in Indonesian. And thank Wikipedia for giving me some info! You can also check it for further information . In Indonesia it means Kenanga: a kind of plant valued for its fragrance. The essential oil derived from the flowers is used for aromatherapy. I think the flower smells like jasmine.

The transparant flip-top lid

And here’s what the back cover said:

“Get a clean and healthy face with Sariayu Acne Care Facial Foam. Face soap which contains Pegagan extract that helps to treat blemished skin without making it feels dry or irritated and Cananga oil as a soothing aromatherapy.”

In Indonesian:

“Dapatkan wajah yang bersih dan terawat dengan Sariayu Busa Pembersih Jerawat. Sabun wajah untuk membantu merawat kulit berjerawat tanpa membuat kulit menjadi kering dan teriritasi. Mengandung ekstrak Pegagan dan bahan lainnya untuk membantu mengurangi jerawat serta diperkaya dengan Cananga oil sebagai aromaterapi yang memberikan ketenangan.”

This product has no animal testing, dermatologically tested, and warning: Stop usage if sign of irritation/allergy occurs. You also can see the ingredients in the picture below. Sorry for the low quality *bows*

The back side of the tube

This tube contains soft white cream but not sticky. If you apply it too much on your hand, the cream is rather watery so it may run out and drip so be careful while you apply. The cream also smells like flowers! I guess the smell of Cananga ^o^

See that white cream? :3

Just apply required amount of this facial foam on my hand, wet with water until bubbly (produces much bubbles!), rub gently and rinse thoroughly. Remember, you need to really rub your face, make sure the water you usually use is clean. If not, you will see white heads still appear on your face. ( =3=)//


I have been using this for 3 months but there is still much facial foam in the tube. I need about two weeks to spend the rest 0.0 Unfortunately, this isn’t gonna be my favorite one. It says help reduce acne but my face is still attacked by acnes as usual, or even worse. I bought this at department store for IDR 11.800,00 on the beauty corner. You also can find the facial foam at minimarket and the price may be different a bit.

So here is my conclusion:
Pros:
· Smells good
· Has soft texture
· Cleans your face well
· Economical Usage
· Easily found locally.
· Has well scent of aromatherapy
· Can be used on oily skin

Cons:
· Not sure it's available on another country.
· Doesn’t reduce acnes of my face.

Possibility to repurchase : No, I will look for another product. Rate : 3,5 of 5 stars.

Sariayu Acne Facial Foam may work for person:
· who is concerned about acnes
· who doesn’t really like fragrance
· who has oily skin, or dry skin, or combination. I think it's for all skin types.
· who look for daily-use product with low price (like me, LOL)

This blog is not for judging whether the product suits your skin or not. You need 'trial and error' to know it ;) Well, just doesn’t work well for me but this facial foam may be useful for you, wanna have a try? ^.^
Have you ever tried this product? How is the result? What’s your favorite?
