Pros

I heard the founder who developed this has atopic dermatitis. My whole family tried it, and none of us experienced any irritation. The ingredients seem great! It's also convenient to carry around. I love that I can wrap my face and fingertips in deep hydration during the harsh winter. I liked it so much after trying one that I bought another. Even those with extremely dry or super sensitive skin can use this without issues.

Cons

How to describe it... There's a strangely unfamiliar scent. You get used to it after a while, but still. Also, it runs out much faster than expected, unfortunately.

Tip

It's great that you can apply it on your lips, around your eyes, and all over your face.

Pros

The stick format makes it convenient to use. With consistent application, it softens dry heels.

Cons

It's a bit stiff. The quantity is too small. The twist-up mechanism in the container tends to break easily.

Tip

It's beneficial to apply regularly before bed on very dry fingers and heels.

Pros

As someone with dry and sensitive skin, I noticed more dead skin cells and tightness during the seasonal change. I decided to try this product. It's not too soft, but firm and flat, making it easy to apply over a wide area. It's also convenient to carry around, so I can reapply whenever my skin feels dry. Since it contains oils I typically use, it suited my skin well without causing any blemishes. I like that I can layer it on as needed.

Cons

When I fully extended the stick, I realized there's less product than I expected. The scent is a mix of olive and herbal notes, which takes some getting used to and lingers around your nose. Even though I have dry skin, it feels like it sits on top of my skin and is a bit sticky. I apply it by swiping the stick and then gently patting it in with my fingers.

Pros

It feels incredibly rich and the stick has gentle ingredients, making it pleasant to apply

Cons

It has a sticky feeling like petroleum jelly, so you must make sure it absorbs well after application. Otherwise, dust sticks to it, unfortunately

Pros

The Multibomb gets more comfortable the more you use it, so I was using a couple of different brands (like Sung Yuri's, Gahee's, and Yuriaaju's). But at some point I stopped using it because it was hard to control the amount and it felt too heavy on my skin. Especially when my mom bought the Gahee one from a home shopping channel, both of us felt it was not very good, so I ended up selling the rest on Danggeun Market. I first saw this one on Makers, but missed the purchase period, so I just bought it on Naver later. I was curious because it's organic, so I tried it once. I think I'll just use this one from now on. The reasons are as follows: 1. It's great at calming down peeling and redness. I'm really scared of fall. As soon as fall comes, my skin gets so tight that it turns red and flaky, not just on my face but gradually spreading from my ankles. It's itchy and painful when I scratch it, but when I applied this, it became so moisturized and nice. It even seemed to reattach the flaky skin. And it also calms down the redness on my face really well. 2. The application is amazing. This is undebatable, I think. It glides on just the right amount of sheen, and when you rub it into your face, you can feel the moisture seeping in. And after that, unlike regular lotions, my face doesn't feel tight at all. Most importantly, I don't get any more bumps now. 3. The scent This could be subjective, but I love the aromatic scent when I first open the lid. And when I apply it, it has a subtle floral scent, not as strong as Sulwhasoo's, but more natural-feeling. I keep sniffing it. 4. The value As someone who cursed at paying 40,000 won for a 5g Multibomb, I thought this Multibomb was a steal. It's organic and lasts quite a long time. I want to use more, but it's a hassle... Anyway, it's a good price for the amount, so go ahead and try it.

Cons

Nothing in particular seems wrong.

Pros

🍒My Lifesaver Product Review🍒 Skin Condition: Dry, sensitive skin. When my skin condition is poor, I experience redness and itchiness. Makeup often cakes and my skin feels dry. Before meeting this product, I was constantly worried about my dryness. Even though I'm not completely out of the woods yet, it's so much better than before. I used to slather on moisturizer before bed, but would still wake up with skin as dry as if I had washed my face overnight. The first thing that caught my eye was 🍯Vaseline. The idea was that applying Vaseline to the skin would improve it, but that didn't work for me at all. It just clogged my pores and caused breakouts. 🍯That's when I found this product. It has a rich, creamy texture, and they've recently reformulated it to be even softer and more hydrating. I no longer have to worry about irritation. 🍯Applying this as the last step in my skincare routine is like coating my skin in a protective barrier. It tackles dryness like a marine commando, while delivering all the benefits I wanted from Vaseline without the breakouts. 🍯Another great thing is that it's portable and easy to use. The stick format means I don't have to worry about getting it on my hands. I can just swipe it on, touch up my makeup if it starts to look dry, and my skin is back to its dewy, hydrated state.

Cons

Those sensitive to the natural scent of this product may find it unpleasant.

Tip

It can also be used on dry elbows or pet paws. When I'm almost out, I even use the leftovers on my dog's paws! It's occasionally available on Kakao Makers, and you can sometimes find it at an even better price if you keep an eye out.

Pros

The ointment is very effective for eczema. As the steroid ointment became less effective over time, I tried this product and saw significant improvement!

Cons

It's 25,000 won, but the amount is really small... I use it like a medication, but it's disappointing... It's expensive, but I end up repurchasing it anyway :(

Pros

This multipurpose balm can be used without hesitation on the eye area, neck wrinkles, cuticles, lips, and more. It has a firmly compressed feel, so it doesn't become too soft and is easy to use. Even with my sensitive, dry skin, I didn't experience any breakouts!

Cons

While it's made with natural ingredients, the fragrance is rather strong. It feels moisturizing, but there's a slightly sticky sensation when using it. The price also feels a bit high considering the amount of product.

Tip

If you apply hand cream and then immediately put this balm on your cuticles, the moisturizing effect will last longer. When the crow's feet or neck lines become more pronounced, just dab a small amount on the fingertips and lightly pat it in for a quick, smooth finish.

Pros

First of all, since it's organic, I didn't have to worry about the ingredients and bought it with confidence. While it may feel a bit thick when first applied, that feeling goes away in just a few minutes. If you apply it generously in the evening and go to bed, you can wake up with a dewy, glowing complexion. I have dry skin, so I also applied it to my trouble areas like the elbows and heels, and they definitely became smoother. In the summer when I need to wear short sleeves and sandals, this will be great for managing my skin. I'm using it very well!

Cons

If you apply too much, it can cause some eye gunk, but other than that, there are no major issues. If you have oily skin, you should apply it thinly.

Tip

After my basic skincare routine, I also apply a moisturizing cream, and I'm careful to apply a little extra around my eyes, lips, and forehead. This helps prevent any potential breakouts.

Pros

First of all, as someone with atopic dermatitis, I applied it liberally to dry areas! Especially in the winter, it's an essential item to have on hand!! And it's really gentle, so there were no issues at all!!

Cons

First of all, since it's in stick form, it was difficult to apply to uneven areas ㅠ If you could make it like a moisturizing lotion, I would definitely stick with it!!

Tip

It's also useful as a lip balm!
