I've attached a photo, but please be aware it might be a bit graphic. My cheeks were always red, but after applying this cream generously before bed, I'd wake up to see the redness significantly reduced. I've almost finished the jar now, and my complexion has become much more stable. It seems to work wonders for blemishes too. Whenever I feel a small pimple coming up, I apply a thick layer of this cream like it's a spot treatment. After a few days, it gradually subsides and disappears. While its hydration might not be as intense as Cicative Calcium, it's clear that its soothing properties are more prominent than its moisturizing effects. If your skin is feeling particularly sensitive or your skin condition isn't great, try using it as an overnight mask. Apply it generously before bed, and you'll likely notice a significant improvement in your skin's condition the next morning. Personally, I've seen amazing results with closed comedones. My skin was in terrible shape at one point. I tried using Stridex (the red box) for daily exfoliation and slathering on Aromatica's aloe gel, thinking closed comedones were caused by dead skin cells and dehydration. But instead of improving, it just got worse. I bought this cream on a whim because it was cheap, intending to use it as an emulsion. But the results were incredible. As you can see in the photo, my entire cheeks were covered in closed comedones that wouldn't pop. I'd heard that whiteheads were sebum plugs trapped by dead skin cells, so I tried managing it with Stridex, but it didn't help. Stridex is expensive and needs to be imported, so I did some research and found a much cheaper alternative available in Korean pharmacies called Cleartin. It has the same ingredients as Stridex. I used Cleartin for exfoliation and this cream instead of aloe gel. After a few months of consistent use, my skin improved dramatically! As you can see in the photo, the bumps have subsided, and the red marks are just scars from previous breakouts. I really hope this combination of Cleartin and this cream can help those struggling with deep, unpoppable blemishes or closed comedones. I bought the Aromatica aloe gel after reading reviews saying it was good for closed comedones, but it didn't work for me at all!
ConsWhile Cicative Calcium has a soft texture that absorbs well into the skin, this zinc cream doesn't feel like it absorbs as effectively. It's fine if you apply a small amount, but if you use too much, it doesn't seem to sink in. Instead of absorbing, it feels more like it's sitting on top of your skin, almost like a mask. The texture is soft but slightly thick, which makes it a bit challenging to use as a moisturizer before makeup. It can leave a white cast, especially if it gets into your eyebrows. While the residue does eventually disappear, I wouldn't recommend using it in the morning before applying makeup unless you use an extremely thin layer. My suggestion would be to use Cicative Calcium in the morning, and save this zinc cream for nighttime use, as a spot treatment for blemishes, or as an overnight mask when your skin is red and irritated. That's when it seems to be most effective.
TipThis product works best when used: - On reddened skin - As a spot treatment on areas with blemishes - Applied generously all over the face when your skin condition isn't great If you have very dry skin, I'd recommend Cicative Calcium. For those with dry but sensitive skin, try using Calcium in the morning and this zinc cream at night as a sleeping mask. This approach seems to yield the best results.

I purchased it solely based on its soothing effects, but then I saw reviews saying it's not good for sensitive skin and leaves white residue. However, that's not the case at all! I have super sensitive skin that can't even handle basic drugstore skincare, but this cream is amazing. When I applied it thickly on areas with blemishes, they calmed down. It even helped with some hive-like bumps. I'm not sure if it has brightening effects, but my complexion seems slightly improved. I'll definitely repurchase!
ConsIt makes my skin look way too white when applied! Even when I'm just staying at home in the morning, if I come out of my room after applying it, I get teased for looking like a ghost.

I love that I don't even need to use a separate brightening moisturizer!
ConsI applied only this zinc cream as my base at 2 PM and went out without makeup, returning at 7 PM. My skin was completely irritated! I have super sensitive skin, but this reaction was extreme. I bought it hoping for a soothing cream, but after just one use, I'm ready to toss it out.
