Cons❎The product is too lightweight even for a gel cream. It is not recommended for dry or extremely dry skin. ❎Even with my normal (combination) skin, it was too lightweight for summer (and yet still felt like it was sitting on top of the skin). I believe a cream needs to be coated to prevent the moisture from escaping, but this product lacks the inherent performance. ❎The oil-moisture balance feels off. Even with normal, combination skin, different areas of my face felt like the product was just sitting on top. ❎I'm puzzled by this moisture cream that seems to change with the seasons. In the height of summer, the moisture just gets absorbed while the oil doesn't, leaving my face feeling greasy and shiny. Then in the fall, I apply it and can barely tell I've put anything on, as my face quickly dries out. ❎For dry, combination, or normal skin, I recommend applying more than one layer.
Tip🌟3 out of 5 stars🌟 To be honest, even 3 stars is a generous score... Good thing I bought it as part of a set. No plans to repurchase.

ConsIt does have a bit of a greasy feel But if you control the amount well, it absorbs quickly There is a slight tightening sensation

I felt the oil-water balance was good, with a slightly higher oil content, around a 6:4 ratio. - Alleviates Surface Dryness These days, many creams focus on addressing internal dryness, but as someone with combination skin, I have both surface dryness and internal dryness. I was looking for a cream that could tackle the surface dryness, and this one doesn't feel too heavy or cause any trouble, while effectively addressing the surface dryness. - Ingredients As it's vegan-certified, the ingredients are very gentle and suitable even for sensitive skin. The carrot pads from the same line have similar ingredients, so using them together created a nice synergy. I highly recommend this to those interested in clean beauty or vegan products.
Cons- Absorption There is a slight oily residue that doesn't fully absorb. However, it goes away after patting it in. - Longevity Despite the moisturizing feel, the effects don't last very long. This cream alone may not be enough to address internal dryness.
TipThis cream may be a bit heavy for summer, but it could be a good option for dry skin in the summer or during the transitional seasons. Using it together with the carrot pads from the same line is recommended.

ConsI was aware that it had a calming effect and the reviews were generally positive, but personally, I didn't feel like it was absorbing into my skin. The thin consistency made it feel like it was just sitting on top of my skin, so it didn't work well for me.
TipI recommend trying it out for yourself before making a purchase.

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsPersonally, I liked the fragrance. Some describe it as an earthy or herbal scent, but I think this is a matter of personal preference. The cream is very thin and light, with minimal oiliness. As an oily-skinned person, I can just apply it in the morning and by the time I reach the front door, my skin already feels soft and smooth.
ConsEven though I used the carrot pad very well, I ended up really regretting buying this cream. I didn't feel any calming effects at all. In fact, the Seuppu Wateriness Lettuce or Pantothenic Acid line worked better for soothing my skin. Additionally, when I applied it, a white cast would appear and linger on the surface. At first, I thought it was because of my oily skin, but it's a different feeling from the occlusive barrier created by rich, moisturizing creams. It just felt like the cream was sitting on top of my skin and then evaporating. I barely finished one jar and had to use the second one as a body lotion. For a 180cm tall man, applying it from my neck to thighs used up the entire 300ml bottle in almost a month, whereas the 55ml carrot cream was gone in a flash. I'm not sure if I slathered it on too thickly out of eagerness to use it up, or if it was just that thin and lightweight, but it got used up incredibly fast. And the glass jar is inconvenient. It's hard to scrape the bottom and sides with a spatula, so I ended up just sticking my fingers in (not a pig 🐷❌️). I swirled my finger around like making cotton candy to get every last bit. Making it in a tube format might be a better idea, like the sample.

The next day, my skin was truly calmed and soothed.
ConsThe scent may be divisive. It has an earthy, just-pulled-from-the-ground carrot-like fragrance that gives a healthy feel, but for those sensitive to scents, that lingering aroma was quite bothersome. The small size is a bit disappointing for daily use.

ConsIt's more like a lotion than a cream ㅠㅠ In my opinion, the moisture evaporates too quickly and there's an oily residue on the surface, which was disappointing...
TipRather than using it as a final moisturizing cream, it's better to use it to deeply hydrate and then finish with another product...

It's hydrating. Personally, I didn't find it too heavy either. However, I feel like it would be better to use it around fall, so I'm a bit disappointed by the lack of seasonal appropriateness. It's said to be effective for soothing, and I do feel there is some soothing effect, though not extremely so. The packaging is nice and comes with a spatula.
ConsI find it slightly superficial. I'm not sure if it absorbs quickly. The fragrance is lacking. Many people seem to like it, but I prefer fragrance-free. The container is heavy. These days, tube-type products are doing well, so I'm not sure why they put a runny formula in a jar. The fact that the container is not recyclable is disappointing.
TipI would recommend it as a night-time product for the summer.

It has the feel of a moisturizing cream, but it's not too thin, so it doesn't dry out quickly after application. Instead, it creates a moisturizing barrier on the face. Even though I have dry skin, in the summer, products that are too oily or thick can cause excess sebum production. This cream seems like a great option for dry-skinned people to use in the summer! + The application is also very smooth! 🌱Ingredients🌱 The ingredients are definitely a pass!! I really liked that it's vegan-certified! 💐Fragrance💐 The fragrance is quite strong, I'd say. But I don't mind fragrance in cosmetics, so it was fine for me. It's not overpowering, but it's not very light either..! ☘️Packaging🍀 I really liked the packaging! I'm glad they used paper cushioning instead of plastic or styrofoam. And the product design and color are so pretty! 🐥
Cons😢 The absorption could be a bit better! The absorption wasn't terrible, but after application, there was a slightly 'sitting on top' feeling. 😢 For oily skin types, this might be a bit too much in the summer..! For oily skin, this would probably be better suited for winter use! 😢 The price doesn't seem very affordable considering the amount of product.
Tip☘️ The moisturizing power is quite good, so a small amount can be used effectively!

I felt good every time I applied it. The cream has a moisturizing formula, making it easy to apply and suitable for summer use. It spreads smoothly and does not leave a tight, dry feeling over time. I had drifted away from Skinfood products, but I'm glad to have found a satisfactory product again.
ConsThe product comes with a spatula, which I used to dispense it, but I had trouble controlling the amount and ended up taking out too much. When I applied it thinly and waited a bit before adding more, the cream did not absorb into my skin and just sat on the surface. My face also felt greasy. The amount you normally use for your regular cream may differ, so try applying a small amount and find the right amount for your skin.
