Pros
I've been using it for over a decade. It's moisturizing and has a satisfying, nourishing feel, so I now use it as an essential even on no-makeup days. It's like a daily moisturizer and light sunscreen in one. I also like Bobbi Brown's signature packaging. The amount is quite generous, so a small amount can cover the entire face, making it last a long time even with daily use.
Cons
The price? There's really not much to complain about... though you can get it for under 100,000 won at the duty-free shop.

Pros
This life cream is indispensable for my dry skin. ㅋㅋ I always use it before applying makeup, especially in the winter. Although it's expensive, I only need to use a small amount, so it lasts quite a long time.
Cons
There's nothing particularly bad about it. As long as you apply it properly and adjust the amount, it's the best cream.
Tip
Just use a tiny amount, melt it with your fingertips, and apply it to areas with a lot of dead skin. Gently press it in to help it absorb. (If you apply too much or use it like a regular cream, it can feel heavy. ㅋㅋ)

Pros
I'm an amazing beauty enthusiast, but I didn't know much about cosmetics until I went to a department store and tried out some oil and cream products. I was so impressed by how well the makeup absorbed that I ended up buying them. They are expensive, but they last a long time. If you apply them before foundation, they definitely keep your skin hydrated for longer and prevent cakiness, so I've been using them comfortably. I highly recommend them.
Cons
I haven't had any particular skin troubles, and the products seem to work well for my skin type, so I'm still using them. However, I wouldn't strongly recommend them to those with oily skin types.

Pros
Additionally, this product has been very helpful for me during periods when I'm undergoing skin treatments or procedures, as I'm unable to apply heavy makeup during those times. Using this Moisture Balm daily provides sun protection while also creating a protective barrier, which has been a great benefit. Most importantly, it helps maintain the right balance of oil and moisture, which has been crucial, especially during the winter months. Having just moisture without the right balance doesn't prevent dryness or excess oil production - the balance is key.
Cons
That's a great question. I'm really curious about this as well - are there any moisturizers out there that can maintain that initial hydrated, plump feeling throughout the entire day, even for those with changing skin conditions? For me, this Moisture Balm does keep my skin feeling moisturized for well over half a day when my skin is in good condition. But when I'm under stress or working late hours, and my skin becomes more sensitive, the effects don't seem to last as long. I imagine the effectiveness can vary quite a bit depending on skin type. But I do sometimes feel like the surface-level hydration wears off quickly, even if the product is working well overall. It would be great to find a moisturizer that can truly lock in that initial plump, dewy look and feel all day long, regardless of fluctuations in my skin's condition. Do you have any recommendations for products like that?
Tip
I haven't experienced any breakouts or issues with this product. However, when I layered it with a thick sunscreen, the combination would sometimes create a heavy, cakey texture that would slide around. To address this, I switched to using a more lightweight, fluid sunscreen essence instead. I found that works well when applied over this Moisture Balm. As for makeup on top, I've found that a light foundation or cushion compact is the perfect complement to this product. Anything too heavy or layered tends to emphasize the rich, balm-like texture.

Pros
The product has a generous amount and good spreadability, so it lasts a long time. The fragrance is pleasant..
Cons
I have sensitive skin and used the Bobbi Brown moisture cream instead of sunscreen, but after using it, I started getting reddish allergic reactions on my cheeks, and when I switched to Elo Elo, it got a bit better, but my cheeks are still itchy in the evenings.. At first, I thought it was a pollen allergy and kept using it, but when I switched to the La Roche-Posay sunscreen, it got better, so I was like, 'Ah!' and compared the ingredients of the three products, and La Roche-Posay has milder ingredients. Bobbi Brown and Elo Elo have a lot of common allergenic ingredients. I guess I need to use a gentle product. People with sensitive skin should be careful. And honestly, I said it works well when I apply this and do my makeup, but I'm not sure about that... The fragrance is nice, but it's too strong. My cheeks are too irritated.. I've been applying this for a year, thinking it was something I ate wrong or another allergy.

Pros
My face used to feel so tight in the winter, but I've tried every product out there. This one has solved the problem! I've been using it for 3 winters now~The price is a bit steep, but a little goes a long way so it lasts a long time.
Cons
The price is quite high, yes~ It's a bit heavy for use outside of winter, but the quantity is also a bit much just for winter use, so a smaller size option with a lower price point would be great.
Tip
You have to melt it down to use it at night, but it all gets absorbed into the skin and there's nothing left over. You can rub it between your fingers and apply it all over your face that way^^

Pros
This is a really essential item, especially for dry skin. In the winter, I couldn't get through a single day without it. My skin feels so moisturized, glowy, and great. Once you buy it, you can use it for a long time.
Cons
I think it's better to apply it around the eyes. For me, it kept irritating my eyes. Some people say it's fine, but since I'm sensitive, when I apply it around my eyes, my eyes feel irritated all day. I think a little bit gets into my eyes.

Pros
The cream can be scooped out and melted for great absorption, moisturizing power, and smooth application. You'd usually need to use two to three bottles, but I've been using this for almost 10 years. It's especially great in the winter, and I just use it as is in the summer too. In the winter, you can use a generous amount without it feeling heavy, and in the summer, just a little bit is enough so it doesn't feel sticky. Another plus is that you don't need to apply a separate sunscreen, as it has a high SPF. The price may seem a bit steep, but it's worth it, and since you only use it in the morning (due to the high SPF), it lasts a long time. I can easily get 10-12 months out of a single bottle.
Cons
I didn't have any issues using it, but after installing the Hwahae app and finding out about the harmful ingredients, I had to stop using it. I really loved this product, but now I'm unsure if I should use it again even after giving birth.
Tip
Make sure to melt it thoroughly with just the tips of your fingers before applying. The effect is very different from when you don't melt it properly. If you don't melt it enough and then apply BB or CC cream, it will pill up.

Pros
It was good that it was rich but not oily and didn't tighten the face. Especially, I used it all year round as I didn't need to apply sunscreen additionally. As it's a night type, I could use it for a long time, and the day cream seems to be the best of its kind - I'm sorry to have used it all up.
Cons
The price is quite burdensome.^^ When it's busy, it can be cumbersome to have it absorb into the skin.
Tip
It's more comfortable to spread it thinly without rubbing it in with your hands, and then gently transfer the warmth by covering your face with your whole palm!
