*This is a post from my other blog which I'm intended to close. So before I close it, I'm transferring all my reviews to here*
I was kind of anticipated the release of this new skincare line targeting pore and oily skin which are my major skin problems.
So when they're released, I grabbed myself a toner, an emulsion, a serum and a smooth pore cream.
I've been using these for more than 2 weeks, twice a day and here is my review. I was not paid to do this review. This is my honest opinion.

Results
I used these 4 products alone, twice a day for more than 2 weeks and I did not mix with other products. And I did not edit any of the result pictures *honest!*and I used as best as I can the same lighting, camera and everything.
Cleanser ----> Apple Sparkling Toner ----> Apple Sparkling Emulsion ----> Apple Sparkling Serum ----> Apple Sparkling Smooth Pore Cream ----> Peach Sake BB Cream No 2 -(review here) ---> Black Egg Pore Finish Powder
Instant Result (upon application)
1. Bare face (no skincare)
2. After all 4 products of Apple Sparkling
3. After BB cream and loose powder
Up-close, I'm amazed at the instant pore concealing effect.
1. Bare face
2. After 4 products of Apple Sparkling
3 & 4. After makeup
Looking at my whole face pictures, there is not much of the differences except for my face have become more radiant and looks smoother.
After 2 Weeks
Both bare face.
Thumbs Up
1. Looking at my results, I'm amazed at how smooth and radiant my face has turned into. I'm very happy.
2. My makeup never stays this long. Whole 6-7 hours without blotting *trust me, this is an achievement for me*
3. No break outs. *the breakouts are because I was sleeping with my makeup on for 2 days in a row. Don't do that*
4. Like I stated in no 2., my face has become 'normal'. Less oily than before
5. My pores have become LESS VISIBLE.
Thumbs Down
NONE. I'm a happy user. :)

Repurchasing
Definitely. This time, I planned to buy whole range. :) and see the overall effect.
