  Pros

  The absorption and application were both excellent. I applied it generously before bed, and when I woke up, my skin felt smooth and supple. It's absolutely amazing!

  Cons

  It seems suitable for all skin types due to its balanced moisture and rich texture.

  Pros

  I received a sample and I'm using it. The texture is quite thin and it feels moisturizing. It's just a nice, easy-to-use cream. The scent isn't overpowering either, just a subtle, natural fragrance of the cream itself.

  Cons

  It's quite oily, so I wouldn't recommend it for those with oily skin....

  This is a review from The Hwahae Testers. Thank you for giving me this great opportunity. First, I have dry-oily, acne-prone, and super sensitive skin. I'm prone to blemishes and my main concerns are acne, acne scars, and skin texture. I can't use products with harmful ingredients or irritants, and my skin tends to act up when the weather changes drastically. The texture is gel-like, somewhere between a gel and a cream. It's not heavy and applies lightly, but the hydration is substantial. It feels sufficiently moisturizing with a slight oiliness that seems to lock in the hydration. For those with dry skin, this product alone might not be enough in your skincare routine. If you have oily skin, you might experience some shine after application and throughout the day. I found that applying it my way and using some powder once during the day works well. Here's a tip I use with this and other products: if it feels a bit heavy, I mix it with a hydrating gel I have on hand. I use aloe or tomato gel, and you can adjust the ratio to your preference. These are purely hydrating gels. If you don't have any, mixing with your toner might work, but it could become too watery, which is why I prefer gels. My routine goes: [hydrating mist - watery toner - Cica Bio Placenta Cream + hydrating gel]. I've been using it for a little over a week. As you can see from the ingredient list, there are no harmful substances, and it contains centella asiatica extract, which is great for acne-prone, oily, sensitive skin like mine. What caught my attention was the bio placenta ingredient, which is said to strengthen the skin's immunity, promote cell growth, even out skin texture, and help with healing wounds, marks, and redness. It's an uncommon ingredient that seems perfect for my needs. Given its impressive functions, a week wasn't enough to see significant results. However, before using this product, I was struggling with skin that felt hard, stinging, rough, cracking, or peeling. I even visited a dermatologist who said these symptoms were due to a compromised skin barrier. After using this product, those symptoms completely improved, and I didn't feel any tightness even when exposed to cold wind outside. In conclusion, I'm satisfied with how comfortable my skin feels and its good hydration. Although the price is a bit steep, it's a product I'd like to repurchase.

  Cons

  As mentioned above, those with dry skin might find this product alone insufficient. If you have oily skin, you might experience some shine after a while. Other than that, the only downside is the high price point.

  Pros

  First off, I love that the ingredients are super gentle. I thought a cica cream would have a thick or heavy texture, but I was surprised to find it had a gel-like consistency when I opened it. I prefer lighter products with good hydration over overly oily ones, so this really appealed to me. It even comes with a spatula, which seems much more hygienic. The application feels incredibly moisturizing. It's like applying water to your face - so hydrating and it absorbs really well. There's a ton of hydration. After applying, my skin feels bouncy when I touch it. However, the residue left on my hands feels a bit sticky, which I'm not a fan of. Usually, I apply minimal skincare before makeup to prevent pilling, but this product doesn't pill even under makeup and provides great hydration, which I'm really happy about. My previous cica cream would pill slightly after absorption, even when applied over toner and serum. I was worried this might do the same, but there's no pilling at all, even when I rub my skin! I had some small blemishes, and while I'm not sure if it's due to time or the cica cream, they've mostly cleared up! I'd say it's probably thanks to this product!

  Cons

  In this season, many people might find it a bit drying. Even though I tend to have oily skin, I think for now it needs to be used with a heavier cream. Also, I didn't notice any significant improvement in larger, more visible blemishes...

  Tip

  For winter, since the texture is light, I apply it right after toner, then follow with serum or essence and a nourishing cream. This really boosts the hydration and moisturization! I'm also applying it a bit more generously on areas with small blemishes or acne, letting it absorb well!
