It's completely oil-free and leaves such a refreshing feeling that you'll find yourself reaching for it again and again.
ConsSince it's oil-free, I wouldn't recommend it for those with dry skin.

I think if I apply it consistently, I'll see even better results. Of course, results may vary from person to person!
ConsThere's not really anything disappointing about it, but if I had to say something... It can be a bit of a hassle to apply, and it takes some time to see the effects...

I've been skeptical of Etude products since middle school, as we didn't have ingredient analysis apps back then. Even when using Hwahae, I never gave Etude a second glance. But after struggling to find the right cream and reading reviews, I decided to give it a try despite my doubts. It really fills in that missing hydration perfectly! It's packed with moisture and finishes with a fresh feel, without any oiliness. Since using this, I haven't had any milia breakouts. I used to use products with more oil content, which led to milia, but not with this one! However, since it's so hydration-focused, I add a tiny bit of Etude's Soon Jung Cica Balm to balance the oil and moisture. This combination definitely makes my skin smoother.
ConsFirst off... I should have bought another one earlier. It seems they've discontinued it...? I checked two local Etude stores and even their website, and it's been discontinued. Why... So I switched to the Soon Jung Emulsion, haha... Actually, since this product and the Soon Jung Cica Balm worked so well for me and were so gentle, I developed a really positive image of Etude's skincare line. That's why I switched to the Soon Jung Emulsion! I'm really enjoying that one too. If I had to mention any downsides from when I used it, there was some pilling, and for my combination skin in winter, the oil-moisture balance wasn't quite right, so I needed the Cica Balm. If I had used it in summer, this cream alone would have been enough!

I received this as a mini kit sample from Etude a couple years ago. I tried it first and loved the texture right away. It applies smoothly without any stickiness and feels refreshing. After using it, I noticed a reduction in excess oil and sebum. It didn't completely eliminate them, but there was a slight decrease. As I mentioned, I have combination dehydrated sensitive skin, and many popular products have caused my skin to react badly. However, this one didn't irritate my skin at all - it was amazing! I finished the sample and immediately bought the full-size product. I've been repurchasing it ever since. Highly recommended for oily skin types! Those with dry skin might find it a bit drying. When I apply a generous amount before bed, I wake up feeling like my pores have slightly shrunk - it's truly wonderful! I think it would be great for students like me who are going through a phase of excessive sebum production. The scent is also lovely - not a harsh chemical smell, but more of a fresh, subtle herbal fragrance. The scent is so good! It's not overpowering, just a light, refreshing aroma. In summer, I like to keep this cream in the fridge and apply it cool to my skin - it seems to have a soothing effect too! This is my holy grail product!
ConsIt's hard to find 20 characters worth of negatives... While it worked very well for my skin, results may vary for others!
TipAs mentioned above, results can vary, so I recommend trying a sample first like I did, and if it works for you, then purchase the full-size product. For those with dry skin, it might be slightly drying, so you may want to apply an additional cream. This cream is especially great when kept in the fridge during summer - applying it cool to your face provides an amazing soothing and cooling effect! I applied it generously after a hot summer sports day, and it was so calming and refreshing. If you try a sample and it works well for you, I recommend stocking up during sales! If you have any questions, please leave a comment right away! I'll respond as quickly as possible!

ConsThe amount of product inside seemed quite small, so I found myself repurchasing it rather quickly.
TipFor those with oily skin, I'd recommend using this before bed rather than in the morning.

My skin produced a lot of sebum and was prone to blemishes, but after using this, my oiliness decreased while my skin stayed hydrated!
ConsWell... there wasn't much I disliked. It comes in a jar, which might raise hygiene concerns, but they include a spatula. If I had to mention one drawback, it would be the lack of a larger size option.
TipIf blemishes cover your forehead and cheeks, try this routine. It cleared mine in just a week: 1. Cleanse with a volcanic scoria pore foam - Helps control oil and cleanses thoroughly - I recommend Innisfree Volcanic Pore Cleansing Foam 2. Apply 2% Cleartine solution to blemish-prone areas - Skin issues aren't always solved by cosmetics alone - Sometimes you need medication. This one doesn't cause resistance! 3. Apply Etude Fresh Gel Cream - Hydration without oiliness! Add more moisturizer if needed. For acne scars, I consistently use Noscarna gel, which has been effective in fading them. Let's not stress over our skin, please!

It absorbs well and doesn't leave a greasy feeling!
ConsI can't think of any downsides. It seems perfect for oily skin types!

Incredibly lightweight and refreshing feel. Even my mom tried it and agreed. Of all the creams I've used, this one leaves the least greasy shine and feels the most refreshing. 2. Keeps oil at bay. When Etude House promoted this cream, they claimed it suppresses sebum and is an oil-cut gel cream. They weren't kidding! It really does keep oil production down! 3. Doesn't cause blemishes. I'm on my third repurchase because of this... It's truly the first cream that isn't too rich and suits combination dehydrated skin so well. When I finished this and tried a different moisturizer, I got blemishes due to excess oil production. Sigh... I've come back to this one, and at least it doesn't cause blemishes (though other products might still cause them).
Cons1. Small amount of product. The jar looks big, but the actual amount of cream inside seems a bit less. You can finish one jar in about a month and a half.
TipEtude House is a road shop brand! For road shop cosmetics, sale prices are the real prices. They often have half-price sales, so if you want to buy, wait for those sales!

In summer, my oily skin usually gets super greasy overnight with other moisturizers, but with this one, only my nose area gets slightly oily while the rest of my face stays oil-free! When I apply makeup after using this, it really adheres well and creates a smooth finish. I initially bought one bottle, used it all up, and recently purchased two more during a sale. It's truly amazing!
ConsThere wasn't anything particularly disappointing! If I had to nitpick, in winter, even though I have oily skin, it can get slightly dry while still producing oil. When I use this product alone, it controls the oil but my skin feels a bit dry. So lately, I've been applying this first and then layering another moisturizer on top. It's perfect for those with oily skin, but those with dry skin might find it a bit drying!
TipWhen doing your base makeup, try applying this first, then use a primer on areas with visible pores before applying your makeup. It creates a smooth, matte finish that helps your makeup adhere beautifully!

It's seriously amazing - my holy grail skincare product! If you have oily skin, I highly recommend this: - As someone with oily skin, I often find moisturizers too sticky and they don't absorb well. But this one absorbs beautifully! It has a light, soothing gel-like texture. It's great to use as a toner before makeup: - It really helps control oil production throughout the day. It truly lives up to its 'sebum zero' claim! I usually get tiny bumps on my forehead after cleansing and applying toner, but not with this product: - My forehead is very sensitive, so I could only use soothing gels before. But since finding this product, I've had no issues at all. My forehead stays completely clear!
ConsThe only downside is that there isn't much product in the bottle. The sample I received only lasted about 2 weeks.
TipIf you have oily skin, this could become your holy grail toner!
