It's been a real struggle. I was looking for a suitable moisturizer for summer and decided to give this a try. Usually, everything I put on my face turns into an oil slick, so I visited Olive Young hoping to control some of that sebum. The absorption seems good. I applied it meticulously, using just a small amount on my fingertip to cover my entire face. For the first 30 minutes, it felt matte.
ConsThere's a slight stickiness, and my hair tends to stick to my face. After about 30 minutes, oil starts beading up in every pore. It's so greasy that if you press a tissue to your face, it sticks. Is this really matte? Maybe it's just my extremely oily skin... I still need to use oil blotting papers, which is inconvenient. It feels matte but sticky at the same time, like I've used a pore-blocking primer. And then, small blemishes started appearing one by one. I'm not sure what didn't agree with my skin, but after two days, I had to stop using it due to the increasing number of blemishes. When I stopped moisturizing altogether after cleansing, the blemishes disappeared. It's a hot and humid rainy season, but even with the air conditioning on indoors and no sweating, why does it feel so sticky? Other products don't feel this way. This Sensitive line doesn't seem suitable for very oily skin. After cleansing, as it dries, a white powder appears from the pores. Anyway, if you have seborrheic dermatitis, oily skin, or are prone to inflammation, it's probably best to avoid this in midsummer. The price is quite steep... I might try it again in fall or winter.
TipNo additional comments as I stopped using it after just two days.

First off, I think there's a sense of trust that comes with the Bioderma brand! Plus, the packaging is pretty, and the nozzle allows for good control of the amount dispensed!
ConsUnfortunately, it didn't work for me. Even though it's a hydrating cream, and the Hydrabio Emulsion was a perfect match for me, I had high hopes when I bought this, but: 1. The fragrance felt artificial and I didn't like it. 2. I have combination skin, and on the drier areas, I immediately developed small bumps after using it... I used it twice, and the first time it seemed perfect, but the next day, the bumps appeared right away. So I wouldn't recommend using it daily...

A little goes a long way, which is nice.
ConsAs someone with super sensitive skin, I was exhausted from searching and chose Bioderma as the safest option. However, after using it, I kept getting small blemishes like millet rash and my face became itchy.

It seems to be a good option for those with oily skin.
ConsHowever, it caused serious breakouts on my skin ㅠㅠ The pore coverage is limited, and it's much less moisturizing than I expected ㅠㅠ Of course, cosmetics can vary in their effects on different people ㅠㅠ
