I don't need to apply much, just a little bit, and it's absolutely fantastic. When I wake up in the morning and cleanse my face, my skin feels incredibly soft - it's a whole new world!
ConsThe only downside is that the scent might be a bit polarizing. To me, it smells slightly medicinal. These days we're wearing masks a lot, and when I apply this and put on a mask, I keep smelling the fragrance with every breath. Still, I don't dislike it and I'm using it happily!
TipIt's called a blending cream, meant to be mixed with serum-like products, but I don't have a separate serum so I use it on its own, and it still works great. Rather than applying a lot at once for absorption, I find it's better to apply a small amount all over and then add a bit more to particularly dry areas.

It also didn't seem to pill, so it felt comfortable to use.
ConsThe scent... oh, the scent... It had this indescribable parsley-like smell that made it really challenging to use. The fragrance was so strong that it made application quite difficult.
TipI recently discovered a great combination after experimenting with different products. Mixing this cream with Tony Moly's Mochi Toner gives it the perfect consistency and amount for application. The ideal ratio is about a 500 won coin-sized amount of cream with one pump of the Mochi Toner. This combination works wonderfully!

First off, the hydration power is incredible! When I apply it before bed, I wake up with no deep dryness, just plump, moisturized skin. While I'm sure it's packed with many beneficial ingredients, I particularly trust it because I recognize some, like Centella Asiatica extract and sodium hyaluronate. I'm definitely considering repurchasing once I finish this one!
ConsThe subtle scent is a bit off-putting. It reminds me of medicinal ointment. I'd prefer if it were fragrance-free! Despite this, I continue using it because the hydration is so good!

Absorption First, let's talk about how it applies! It had a slight whipped cream texture, but not quite. The absorption was pretty good too! It strikes a perfect balance - not too slow to absorb, which can feel heavy, nor too quick, which can leave your skin feeling dry. For me, it was just right! I was really satisfied with how smoothly it glided on without causing any irritation to my skin. 2. Hydration The hydration level met my expectations. It provided ample moisture without feeling suffocating or like I'd applied too thick a layer. The hydration was just right for me, and I could still feel the moisturizing effect the next day, which was impressive. 3. Scent To be honest, I'm not particularly sensitive to fragrances, but this one reminded me a bit of the ointment smell you'd find in a pharmacy. However, I appreciated that it didn't have an overly sweet scent or excessive fragrance. 4. Ingredients I was really satisfied with the ingredients. There were no concerning components or potential carcinogens, which was great. 5. Overall Impression I was so excited when I received this cream! Not only because it was my first time being selected, but also because I've been using it daily for this review. It's been great for both makeup application and nighttime use. These days, I only use this cream and toner before applying makeup or going to bed. It feels less heavy and doesn't give that thick layer sensation, which I love. So, I'd definitely consider repurchasing when I run out! I heard this cream can be used for DIY skincare, but I haven't tried that yet since I haven't been wearing much makeup lately. When I start wearing makeup again, I'll definitely try using it that way!
ConsThe Downside! To be completely honest, the only real downside for me - and this isn't an exaggeration or false claim - is the scent. As I mentioned in the positives, it has that pharmacy ointment smell, which might be a bit polarizing for some people. Also, after using it for about two weeks, I didn't notice any major changes! It didn't make my blemishes disappear or anything like that.
TipThis product would be great for those with super sensitive skin. With zero concerning ingredients and its smooth application, it caused absolutely no irritation. As I've mentioned several times, if you're not a fan of that ointment-like scent, this might not be your cup of tea - just my personal opinion!

Overall, it seemed well-balanced. It has a typical hydration level rather than being super moisturizing, with a slight richness? I noticed that when I only applied this with toner, my skin felt a bit dry after some time. The texture is slightly thick.
ConsThe scent is a bit... though not too strong. At first, I wondered what the smell was, but it's similar to traditional herbal medicine? That's how it smells.

As autumn arrived, the air became drier and heating devices were turned on. Even after applying cream, my skin would quickly dry out, leaving it dehydrated underneath while the surface felt greasy from unabsorbed product. I was struggling with this when I received this product to try. 1. Packaging - The first thing that caught my eye when I opened it was the simple packaging. Unlike other products that list ingredients or functions, this one boldly displays the product name and a striking purple color. 2. Scent - I'd describe it as typically 'derma-like'. It smells like a skin ointment with a hint of shea butter. It's similar to Physiogel but slightly stronger. At first, it might seem a bit intense, but you get used to it and it's not overpowering. When mixed with other products, the scent disappears. As someone whose skin reacts to fragranced products, I actually welcomed this kind of scent. 3. Texture - It's a milky white cream with no transparency and a rich feel. However, it's not too thick and applies lightly, living up to its name as a 'blending cream' that mixes well with any product. 4. User Experience - For me, it's excellent. I rate products based on whether I'd spend my own money on them, and this gets five stars. I'll likely purchase it when I run out. As someone with dry skin, I use shea butter products, but this feels as light as Physiogel even in summer. When the weather turned cold, my skin was suffering from deep dryness and unabsorbed oil on the surface, emphasizing wrinkles. Even mixing oil balm didn't help, but this product made my skin feel comfortable. The product description suggested mixing it with serums from J's Derma's other lines, but since I didn't have those, I tried it with my own serums and cream oil balms. I start with an exfoliating toner as a first essence. During the day, I finish my routine by mixing this cream with a small amount of oil balm. At night, I mix it with serum for a light application, followed by a mix of oil balm and cream. Even with the heat from my warm water mattress, my skin stays hydrated until morning. When I touch my face during my morning cleanse, there's no dead skin cells and my skin feels smooth. This product feels like a makeup base for skincare. When blended with other products, it helps them absorb better and last longer. If your skin tends to get red and hot, this might help as it contains Centella Asiatica extract for soothing effects, and it definitely keeps the skin cooler than when not using it.
Cons1. If used alone, it might be a bit dry for those with very dry skin. However, this issue is resolved when mixed with your existing products. 2. Due to the shea butter content, those with oily skin might find it a bit greasy. 3. If you dislike the scent of ointments, you might find the fragrance a bit overwhelming.
TipThere's a reason why it's called a blending cream. Try mixing it with serums or balm-type products. I'm currently using Kim Jung Moon Aloe oil balm, and when mixed together, it's not sticky at all and doesn't rub off easily, which I love. I think it would work well with other oil balms too. If you exfoliate to smooth your skin texture before applying, it absorbs even better and makes your skin look really good.

I was pleasantly surprised by how gentle it felt. It's so hydrating that you could get away with just using this cream alone! As someone with sensitive skin, I usually avoid products without reviews, but this one is so mild that even I can use it without issues. I only applied this at night and didn't experience any discomfort. In fact, the more I used it, the more I felt like my blemishes were actually calming down! My cheeks are dry, but my nose area is extremely oily. Usually, rich products make my nose area explode with oil, but with this one, I can barely notice any excess oil.
ConsI personally prefer products with a slight fragrance, but this seems to be unscented. If I had to describe the scent, it's reminiscent of hair dye, unfortunately. Also, I really dislike when products leave an oily residue on my hands after application, and this one does leave a slightly greasy feeling.
TipThey mentioned it works well with other serums, so I highly recommend trying it in combination with your favorite serum!
