  Pros

  My skin tends to get unusually dry during the winter, so I've been searching for a moisturizing cream while also looking for a gentle product since I'm prone to getting milia. I haven't been able to settle on a single product until I tried this one as a sample for a few days. When I first used it, I really liked the scent - it had a strong honey aroma, and I was worried it might be overpowering. But the honey scent was actually quite subtle, and the predominant fragrance was more of a soap-like scent. So applying the cream was a pleasant experience. The moisturizing power seems quite good. When I use this cream in the morning as part of my skincare routine, my skin doesn't feel dry throughout the day. And it doesn't feel heavy or greasy either (at least for my dry skin type). One of the most important factors for me when choosing a cream is the oil content, and this product doesn't feel overly oily. It provides just the right amount of oil for my skin. The texture is also pretty good - a bit thicker than some gel creams or watery creams I've used, but still easy to apply. Even someone like me who prefers lighter textures found this cream to be quite usable. The best part is that you don't need to use a lot of this cream. It spreads really well and evenly on the skin, providing sufficient moisture without feeling heavy. If I can't find an even better product, I think I'll stick with this one.

  Cons

  My room is quite dry, without a humidifier, so it gets pretty dehydrated in here. When I use this cream at night and go to bed, my skin feels extremely parched in the morning. For comparison, I use the Innisfree Canola Honey Lip Sleeping Pack on my lips, and they stay moisturized, but my skin feels just as dry as if I hadn't used anything at all. It's not to the point of feeling tight, but it's just as dehydrated as if I hadn't applied anything the previous night. So I don't think this cream works well as a night cream. Even when I use a face mask before applying this cream at night, I don't see a significant difference. Of course, the dryness of my room is a major factor, but for those with similarly dry environments, I wouldn't recommend this cream.
