The cream has very little oil, so it seems suitable for combination or oily skin types. As a person with combination skin that lacks moisture, I found that it did not cause excess oil the next morning and felt comfortable. Surprisingly, it also effectively addressed dryness. Even with my sensitive skin, I experienced no breakouts or irritation while using this product. Instead, my skin texture became smoother and more comfortable. This is likely due to the adequate moisture supply, which helped regulate sebum production. Although the price is a bit high considering the volume, I plan to repurchase this product.
ConsThe application is not smooth. It is very thick and sticky!! Applying it makes my skin feel like it's being pushed, as if wrinkles might form... But aside from that, everything else is good, so I just continue using it... The small volume is disappointing, as it gets used up quickly. If you have dry skin with insufficient sebum production, this product may not be enough. I would recommend using an additional facial oil.

However, this is a product that can give you that 'holy grail' feeling for a while. I say this because I think I'll continue using this product even as my skin gets drier with age. I started using this product after hearing good things about it from those around me. In my research, I found that this was one of the least oily products, so I gave it a try. Now, I've stopped making my own creams and am on my second bottle of this product. I haven't been able to review it for a while since I stopped using other commercial products. Looking at the ingredients, there's hardly any oil. The main active ingredients that directly affect the skin are glycerin, panthenol, and caprylic... just those three. Caprylic... that's an oil, but it's listed after panthenol, so the oil content is probably no more than 5%. This product contains 5% panthenol. The rest are just additives like texture, emulsifiers, and preservatives. But as they say, panthenol is very hydrating, and this product does feel very moisturizing and cooling. However, with minimal oil, this may not be enough for more mature skin. I don't use this alone either. There are two types of moisturizers - occlusive and humectant. Occlusive is mostly oil-based. In other words, there's hardly any occlusive moisturizing here. Personally, I apply this and then mix in some jojoba oil, vitamin E, and squalane as a face oil. It's also great under sunscreen, as it's non-oily and very hydrating. Among the sunscreens I like, the ones that are too oily or drying work well with this. In theory, this should work for both oily and mature skin types. But individual skin may react differently.
ConsIt's quite thick. I've seen reviews saying this can be problematic. The thickness makes it hard to spread evenly on the face. I don't really like that feeling of the product sliding around. Probably has to do with the xanthan gum in the formulation.
