I'm not sure if it was the cream itself, the gift sheet mask pack, or the combination that worked so well.
ConsAt first, I really liked the feel of this product, so I applied a generous amount when my skin was tired and fatigued. But then my skin almost became inflamed, with reddish patches popping up. I was able to calm it down quickly, but I'm hesitant to use it again.

ConsWhen I applied it to my face, it stung a bit and felt quite irritating, so I thought I'd get used to it, but the next day I tried it again and it backfired. The niacinamide ingredient doesn't seem to agree with my sensitive skin. Next time, I'll have to try a daily lotion without niacinamide.

I used to get sensitive to even small stimuli (like temperature changes, after working out, after using a face mask, etc.), but lately I hardly feel any irritation, as my skin has become very resilient. 🍀There is less oil buildup The dermatologist recommended this to me because my seborrheic dermatitis was causing oil buildup, and after using it, I really do feel like there is less oil buildup. After washing my face, the oil explosion would start in about 3 hours, and I'd have to carry oil blotting papers with me all the time, but after using this, I don't even need the oil blotting papers anymore. 🍀The redness has gone away! I used to always have redness, but after using this, the redness has significantly faded. 🌝Overall Impression: It's very gentle, and the ceramide ingredients really seem to strengthen the skin. It also absorbs quickly, and after absorption, it feels like a thin protective layer is left behind.
Cons🌚Since it's not a moisturizing cream, when used alone, there is a slight drying sensation. ————————————————————- 5/16 Update 🌚About 3 weeks in, my skin has strangely flipped out. My skin was itchy every day, and I thought it was because of mites, but when I looked into it, I found a lot of people like me who suddenly had itchy and flipped out skin... I wonder what's causing that? ㅠㅠ It's very unusual for my skin to flip out like this - the last time was 7 years ago after high school. I'm so upset. ——————————————————————- 5/24 Update I went to the dermatologist last week, and they diagnosed it as folliculitis, not a reaction to the product. After treatment, I started using it again, and it seems to be fine! I unfairly took it out on Cerave. ㅎㅎㅎ...
TipCerave PM: Used alone, it feels a bit drying. Cerave PM + Cerave Moisturizing Cream: Feels like an extra layer is built up, but still a bit drying. Serum + Cerave PM + Cerave Moisturizing Cream: Not extremely moisturizing, but the Cerave Moisturizing Cream feels like it's coating the serum so it doesn't get absorbed too quickly, which was nice.

ConsI don't know why, but my skin seems to have turned inside out after using this...

A blog that analyzes ingredients said it contains ingredients like conditioner and parabens, which is a bit concerning. But it seems to have a lot of ingredients that provide good spreadability, and the initial application felt light and moisturizing.
ConsSeborrheic dermatitis causes inflammation and itchiness. But after applying this, the itchiness went away, so I kept using it. On the second day, little bumps started popping up. My existing seborrheic dermatitis remained, and now I also had these bumps. I stopped using it after just two days. I'm so frustrated - I even had to pay for overseas shipping when I bought this (from Gmarket). I don't know if the seller was selling expired product. I've gone back to just using an antifungal cream and my regular moisturizer. I don't know what to do about my seborrheic dermatitis. I want to use a moisturizing cream with some oil, but I just can't find one that works.

ConsThis product gifted me the worst skin flip-flop Don't ignore the slight tingling when you first apply it. After applying it for the second time and waking up in the morning, I looked in the mirror and my entire face was covered in numerous comedonal acne and bumpy blemishes Brilliant redness and peeling are a bonus My face was tingling and burning at the same time Even after ten days, I'm still recovering

The container is small and easy to grip The container is small and has a good grip. It would be convenient to take with you when traveling as the container is small. 2. Good ingredients It contains all the ingredients for strengthening the skin barrier. From long-chain and short-chain ceramides to cholesterol, phytosphingosine, and niacinamide, it seems to be one of the rare products that contain ingredients that help strengthen the skin barrier and modify sebum composition. Moreover, as it is an oil-free, non-comedogenic product, it is said to be well-suited for oily yet sensitive skin. That's why my expectations are high.
Cons1. Skin irritation ㅠㅠ I don't know what didn't agree with me, but my skin became noticeably red and blotchy the second day after applying it... By the way, I thought I had extremely oily and non-sensitive skin, but after testing a few cosmetics recently, it seems my skin is closer to sensitive skin..😂😂 I don't know if it was the niacinamide that didn't agree with me or if there was another ingredient that was the problem, but it turned red like an allergic reaction, so I immediately stopped using it ㅠㅠ I'm trying to use good quality products with lipid ingredients instead of the common essences, lotions, and moisturizers available in stores, but why do they all seem to not agree with me? ㅠㅠ 2. Available only through overseas direct purchase Unfortunately, this product can only be purchased through overseas direct purchase, so that may be a bit inconvenient. If I could find the perfect product for my skin, I think I wouldn't mind doing overseas direct purchases for the rest of my life... And if you purchase it, you should check if it's the renewed product. The difference in ingredients between the pre-renewal and post-renewal versions is not significant, but the concentrations seem to be a bit different. I didn't check properly and ordered from the cheapest place, and the pre-renewal product arrived ㅠ It took a week to arrive from overseas, and I had to go through the hassle of exchanging it and waiting another week, paying for the return shipping... I was so disappointed that it didn't work for me, given how high my expectations were. 3. No expiration date indicated Since it's a US product, the manufacturing date and expiration date are not indicated. It has parabens, so the expiration date is likely quite long. But I still feel uneasy about it. There is a product number on the container or packaging, and I found online that if you inquire with Cerave using this number, they will provide the manufacturing date, and the shelf life is around 3 years from the manufacturing date. So I emailed Cerave's headquarters with the product number, but since my address is in Korea, they said I should ask the place I purchased it from, as they are not responsible for that... I purchased it directly from an online store that ships from the US on the same day, and they're saying it's not under their jurisdiction? ㅠㅠ But I'll just have to trust that they sent me a recently manufactured product since it has parabens.
TipEven though I waited over two weeks, made inquiries, and had really high expectations, the skin irritation is so disappointing... Despite that, the reason I would still recommend this product is that although it didn't work for me, I haven't been able to find a moisturizer with this kind of ingredient composition that would be suitable for my skin.ㅠ I'm really envious of those for whom this product works perfectly.😭😭 It seems I'll have to continue my nomadic lifestyle of trying different products.

ConsI have sensitive skin, so I agonized over buying this, but it caused breakouts and my skin completely went haywire. I guess it affects everyone differently, though.
