So even if it doesn't quite match, my skin gets red and very irritated, so I've been trying various products to find the right basic skincare. Coincidentally, I came across the Laneige brand and when I needed a cream, I found and ordered this one. The texture is a bit thick and doesn't spread smoothly, so you have to gently pat it in to absorb it. But since I'm very dry, I actually like the rich, heavy feel. After applying, there's no stickiness and it leaves a soft, powdery finish. The hydration seems a bit lacking though. I use a face oil as the final step, which really boosts the moisturizing power and makes it last much longer. I haven't used it for a long time yet, but there was no irritation when I first applied it, so I'm continuing to use it. As long as my skin doesn't get irritated, I plan to repurchase once this is finished.
ConsI wouldn't recommend this for oily skin types! While the product doesn't feel overly oily, the formula and various aspects make me think it could potentially clog pores and cause breakouts for those with oily skin.
TipIf the thick texture makes it hard to apply, you can mix it with a face oil before applying - that will improve the spreadability and really boost the moisturizing power!

I think it would suit those with dry skin. It seems better to use it in the winter than in the summer. The formula is a bit scary and slightly thick, so I'm a bit worried about applying makeup on top of it. I'm using it as a nighttime product. After toning, I apply it thinly without an essence, and it's moisturizing and doesn't tighten the face much, which is nice. I'll have to try it with makeup on and update the review later.
ConsIt's a bit heavy to use in the summer. In the summer, only the inner part is very dry, while the outer part is quite oily, so a lighter formula would be better, but this one seems more moisturizing? It might be good for the winter. If I apply it under sunscreen, foundation, and other layers, it seems like it would lift and slide around, so I don't apply it before makeup. It also seems to leave a slightly oily surface.

There were milia the day before, but the next day they were cleared up. I applied the toner and essence generously, and then the eye cream. The oil content is just right for me. The texture was similar to the highly concentrated Huxley Cream. A small amount spreads out thinly and doesn't feel heavy or stuffy. The makeup doesn't slide off even when I apply it in the morning. The oyster seems to suit me well~ It doesn't make my skin look as white as regular tone-up creams. I'm not a big fan of tone-up creams, so this is great! Even though it's a 50ml size, it's not heavy, so it's good for carrying around.
ConsHmm~ It's a bit thick, but it spreads out well. However, I had to apply it carefully and generously. I applied a bit too much, so I felt more of an oily sensation than a moisturizing one, and my pores looked more prominent.
TipAfter working out and applying the toner, I just quickly slapped it on and the makeup went on well! It's lightweight, so it's convenient to carry around and apply lightly after exercising.

I personally dislike strongly scented cosmetics, so this was good for me. After washing my face in the morning, my cheeks felt soft and smooth. The texture is in between a balm and an ointment - slightly waxy. Perhaps because of the texture, I tend to use a small amount at a time. It's easy to apply in a thin layer. It gives a feeling of my face being perfectly coated. It doesn't make my face overly shiny or feel too heavy. As the weather becomes less humid and a bit colder, and the seasonal changes begin, I plan to take this out and use it again... For now, I want to use something a bit lighter...! It contains shea butter, but even with the thin layer I applied for the current weather, I didn't feel it was too heavy or uncomfortable. I had a small pimple around my mouth that had been there for a few days, but in the morning, it felt calmed down. It's hard to describe, but when you apply it, it has a glowy finish, but it also feels like the skin has absorbed it? It's not just sitting on top, nor is it overly shiny and coated, but it has this comfortable, absorbed-into-the-skin kind of feeling. I thought the amount was small, but the texture is quite dense, so I end up using only a little bit each time. I think it will last me a while. +) These days, my skin has been irritated and patchy due to not feeling well, like during seasonal changes. But after applying this and the hydrating ampoule religiously, the redness calmed down in just a few days. It didn't sting much, and it seems to be nourishing and hydrating well. So I'm adding an extra star! My skin tone has become more even.
ConsI was curious about the effects, so I cleansed with a micellar water, sprayed it twice with a mist, and then just applied this. But within two hours, my skin felt dry. It doesn't seem to provide enough hydration. However, if I use an ampoule or essence to quench my skin's thirst and then apply this thinly like a coating, the moisture seems to last longer. It may be a bit heavy for very hot weather. I noticed a red spot appeared around my mouth in the morning. My skin doesn't seem to be particularly calmed by this. But it does feel like it's creating a good protective barrier? I think it will be better when the weather gets colder and flakiness starts to appear.
TipMake sure to thoroughly mist and hydrate, and then apply this thinly. Overnight, you'll feel the lasting moisture. Using this alone isn't enough to fully hydrate.
