Sometime in Jan 2007…
After walking around Times Square, dead tired, I wanted to reach the monorail train station ASAP. I was stopped by a Malay girl. She pitched something and I glanced at the booth (there were several booths having beauty/accessories fair). Lots of small white plastic bottles with purple wordings and logo arranged neatly on the table, most of them in a pack of 3 inside a sealable plastic bag. Then she grabbed my hand and pulled me to the front, then she promoted this product.
She said more than asked, “Nak cuba.”
She applied Dempo Snow on my hand and explained about the usage of the products non-stop. “Ah, tu bang saya. Tengok sekarang kulit dia merah-merah cantik, kan? Dulu dia banyak jerawat.” She pointed a man who looked older than her 10 years. Indeed, he had the bright pink tanned skin on his face. Like a drunk man.
Trying to get on my side, she tried to speak in Cantonese and Mandarin for some skin problems terms but I couldn’t get what she meant. Chinese languages are complex. 1 spoken word has 4 tones, each with different meanings (and character spelling).
“Boleh guna sebagai mask juga. Biar dia kering, lepas tu sembur air sedikit. Sikit saja cukup. Guna kain untuk dab. Sapu 1 hala. Ha… nampak tak, yang tu kulit mati.”
“Sekarang, ada promotion. Kalau beli 1 pek - ada 3 dalam,” she grabbed a pack, “dan percuma 1 botol. 1 pek RM##.”
“1 botol saja?”
“RM##. Tapi kalau awak ambil pek, lagi baik. Boleh guna lama. Ni pasti berkesan. Nanti muka dan kulit sangat cantik.”
The price listed on the sticker of the bottles - RM15. It’s something like Hazeline Snow but with cheaper looking packaging.
“Tak mau la. Tak cukup duit. Saya cuba 1 dulu.”
“OK, awak beli 2, saya bagi awak 1 percuma lah.”
“Ha? Mengapa?” I was shocked.
“Saya nak ambil commission.”
“Banyak ke commission?”
“Err.. ada la..”
“OK la. Saya ambil dua.”
Hehe. My Buy 2 free 1 is cheaper than Buy 3 in 1 pack free 1.
I have been using it for a month, everyday - if I could remember it. My face still have pimples around the chin. During that Jan, I had pimples on my forehead but not on my chin - ate too much biscuits even before CNY hoho. My legs still have scar marks.
As for removing the dead cells, the mask dries up and when you sweep over it (hard & repeatedly), the dead cells come off together with the dried mask. Afterwards, the skin does seem smoother although not fairer.
I still have 2 more bottles to go. I have to say, the effects are very mild.
Pos Metro Balikpapan - Ada Konter Cream Pembersih Alami
It’s from Indonesia?
It’s distributed by Am’Co Trading in Sungai Petani, Kedah (as printed on the sticker).
According to the promoter, “Carrefour ada jual ni.”
Had the same encounter with a dempo snow salesgirl at an expo recently. Very persuasive, yes! and annoying but then it sales.
They had the dempo snow in a pack of 3 too. Its $15 per bottle but if beli yang satu pack 3 tu, ada harga promo. I bought only one.
Gave her $20, expecting my $5 change back but instead the salesgirl persuaded me again saying that I just need to add another $15 to get the pack of 3 but I didn’t. But she gave me a bottle for the price of $5 (my supposely $20 change)
Honestly, I like this product. Feels nice on the skin. Haven’t cuba it as a mask thou. Will later tonite. Thank you for the info (:
i bought this product…but i stop using it now cos i am a bit curious with the ingredients. they didnt state whats inside the product. dunno whats the side effect for long term
curious about ingredients? me too. but i dont think there s any side effect. the cream is too plain simple. my concern is on the halal status. since the salesgirl is Muslim…i bought it..the regret came later…haiyaa..! manusia..manusia…
dempo snow is made of sea weed, no chemicals
hi..where i can get the dempo snow in Kuching, Sarawak????thanks…
my gf n i bought it last week.
strangely it did not stated the main ingredient n how2 use.
no manufacturing n expired date as well
Today my father had been forced tp buy 3 packs of this product with price RM70
i’m not sure it is worth or not but i’m totally angry and cant accept the promoter style.
they dont have right to put any “things” to consumer body without permission.
i feel that my dad had been forced to buy after his money change was not been return by the promoter then offer for 3 packs..
huh..!!! if i’m there, i feel want punch his face. RM70 can buy more important things instead of that !@#!%$..
i just want to share for those have same opinion with me.
for me, be a professional in selling. not by forcing customer to buy your product.
i’m seriously say that the promoter will regret if they try to sell to me with this kind of method.
say to them not to face with customer with me!!!

I bought Dempo Snow product and have been using it for about a week, i noticed the different below my eyes..Then was quite black and now became brighter. It contains Sengkuang (fruit) extract which can removes dead cells, tighten your skin texture and ETCs..
where can we buy the product???
i mean in kuala lumpur,where did they sell their product???
babygurl, you can find it at Carrefour outlets
I too have recently purchased this product, Gadong Mall, Brunei $15 ea packaged in box of 3 pay $40. Same sales technique. Yes there does not appear to be information on ingredients in product and how to use plus benefits. Skin does feel fresher and smoother. I need to know correct usage, and can you you with your other cleansing/moisturising routine. The Sales rep said it is good for skin pigmentation, pimples and chicken pox……..do they mean for scarring
babygurl, I passed by Times Square & there was a booth selling this in the fair section (middle) but I forgot which floor. It was next to sth Diamond.
KP, Correct usage - better ask the salesperson. According to my salesgirl, it can be used as moisturizer & mask. Colouring & lightening scars.
i ve bought them for RM45 AT TESCO. As da promoter said that it able to give good effects in only a week so i bought it witout doubt.But afte 2 days i used it,there a lot of pimples occur on my entire face and it became worst day to day.I made a call to da supplier but surprisely he yield at me.So rude!!!!!!!!!!!what a such liar!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Went to a mall this week with friends…guess what, my friends been stopped by a dempo snow promoter while i was buying mcd’s ice cream. The promoter, persuaded my friends to buy 2 bottles of the cream for rm20. She tried to make me ‘fall’ into such plain lies about the product. Yea, right. I ask her if there were any chemical in that cream since the fragrance is too strong. She said no. It is all natural. As far as im concern, no natural-based product has a smell that is so strong! And why there is no information about the ingredients? As if they want to cover up something. I mean, dont u guys wanna know, what stuff u put on ur face? If they put seaweed and sengkuang or whatever, surely the process of mixing the ingredients naturally, without any chemical involved gona takes time and costly. But the product is abundant in number and quite cheap (compared to other natural beauty stuff)

been using the product for 2 weeks now…the smell is quite strong becuase of the bengkoang(sengkuang)..so far so good and the effect is much better and faster than the $$$$$ branded that i’ve been using for almost 20 years.. my skin looks supple and tight now.
Its using natural ingredients seaweed/bengkoang which is famous for its good effect..
i think it depends on the person’s skin itself..
there’s lots of different sequences regarding the dempo snow. some have got better result but some get worse.
I also really curious bout the ingredients… is it true from the seaweed..
(macam la ade byk sgt laut kat kl nih)
Whilst holidaying in KL my sister bought this product for us both plus a spare bax of 3. i laughed at first because i thought she just got sucked in by the lady selling it but guess what… it is the best thing i have tried on my face and the best results. i am over 50 and fine laugh lines around face and was dark under the eyes. well not now…. when you get people who comment on how fresh and young you look and all you have on your face is the Dempo snow.. you know it is working.
i bought this product for my 12 y.o. daughter. she has uneven skin tone,she s still very young so no pimples problem. i thought, since this is purely made from sengkoang plus it has no overrated chemicals, it shud be safe for her skin ..
she used it for about 10 months, it didnt do any good for the uneven skin tone but it did help when she has occasional pimple break-outs! it leaves no scar and she s happy :)
i thought, why dont i try this product, so, as we are speaking, i have been using it for 6 months now and i m happy with the result (less-oily, smoother skin, pimples dry off faster, old scars fading).
few weeks ago, my daughter sweared she s not going to use dempo again. she found fungus in her dempo!!
may i know whether this product is halal or not?
i heard b4 that hazeline snow have used an animal to produced this product. is it the same with the dempo snow???
My wife buy this stupid snow fucking cream even i say dont buy it. the idiot sales person keep holding my wife until she buy. from RM45 then drop to RM10 2 bottle. After we came back to our house she try to apply to her skin but, and 5 minute later buang the stupid cream. hahaha anyone want to buy this cream just forget it. no used. if you notice the cream just like Nivea Cream (Blue Tin) or Hazelin snow. So i strongly percaya nie tak leh pakai. next time if you see this kind of product just ignore or slap the sales person. now days so many product especially beauty product not a good one. Dempo Snow also if u notice no expired date, Tested or been approve by expert. so be careful. Maybe NON- HALAL or worse thing maybe can course you skin canser.
count me in guys! i’m also a victim of this product. the sales person managed to apply this shitty cream on my mums face when we were shopping shopping in GIANT Batu caves. they sold her 3 bottles for RM 45 ( yeah! she got 2 more bottles free lol ) i dont know the mystery behind this product! it works up to a certain extend. you wont get 100% results. but it works
i used this product..
1stly, i never thought it wud be any different, because my skin was sun-burned and haiya..so many tiny pimples..
it makes ur skin feel like mint.. very fresh..
and breeze..
i used it for two months..
when i came to my ex student gathering, that time i realized, that my skin turned smoother, no more pimples, and it covers ur pimples scar..
although it works, i never use it now..
because so lazy to put it on my face before sleeping..
haha..
anybody wants to try it can contact me, my close fren sell it.. (kayrill@gmail.com)
Hi..i’ve read so much of all the comments here about that beauty products. I agreed! I was one of the victims too. A salesgirl called me while i was walking at one of the shopping centre in Kuantan. She applied some of it on my hand just to demo how the cream works. At first i believe that it works, because when she rub it on my hands, i saw the dead cells coming out from my skin. It works pretty much like the ginvera marvel gel.
Same tactic, 3 bottles for RM45 and get another bottle free.But i didnt bother to buy as i thought that they might cheat me. Den again they persuaded me to try first..so i did lah buy just 3 bottles for 30 ringgit.
I think my bro did use this same cream too. Well it works. His skin is brighter than before. I’ve been using it for 3 weeks already and the result is amazing for the first few days. But after that, i realise, there’s pimples on my forehead. And more of it coming out. I was so frustrated. Now i felt cheated. But somehow, my skins do get brighter than before. Maybe..it depends oso on certain skin?
