ConsAh... it's really oily, not much moisture but plenty of oil content ㅠㅠ
TipFor those with oily skin, use just a little... I wouldn't recommend it for those looking for more moisture.

It's quite unremarkable, but I've been using it without any breakouts. After finishing the first bottle, I felt like it had a slight effect in calming my acne. At first, I thought it was just an ordinary, so-so cream, but after using it up, my blemishes seemed to have subsided a bit.
ConsThe cream doesn't really have any distinctive features. It lacks both oil and moisture, feeling more like sunscreen than a moisturizer. There's no hydrating effect, so it might be quite drying for those with dry skin.

It's suitable for users who dislike oiliness.
ConsWhile it doesn't have an oily feel, users with dry skin may feel a lack of moisture.

When doing Fraxel treatments, the face can get quite hot, so I've been relying on this ointment, especially on the first day. Although I don't like products with a lot of oiliness, this is closer to a base than an ointment and has almost no oily feel.
ConsThe blue...it's blue in color, but it doesn't absorb at all, so it just sits on the skin ㅠㅠ That's why the blue color just gets smeared around, which looks quite unpleasant ㅠ I understand it has no oiliness, but even after applying, my face quickly feels dry and lacks moisture ㅠ
TipI'm not sure if it's effective for skin regeneration and soothing, and since the absorption is poor, I can't recommend this product...ㅠ

When it first became irritated, I went to a dermatologist and did not use any cica creams. Now that there are almost scars left, I have been looking for cica creams to help calm them down. Cica creams have become quite popular lately, and there are quite a few brand products available. Based on my friend's recommendation, I started using the Avène product. I'm aware that the SOS cream is well-known, but I don't prefer products with oiliness, so I used the blue gel. Applying this consistently has prevented any new acne from forming! The acne scars are also gradually fading, but I'm not sure if this is due to natural fading over time or the blue gel. I'm just satisfied that I'm no longer getting new breakouts. Initially, I applied it right after toning, and it felt a bit drying. So now I apply it after using a toner and essence.
ConsI had high expectations for the cica cream since I've read many positive reviews about its benefits for the skin, but I didn't really see the effects I was hoping for. I'm not sure if it's because my skin condition was quite severe, but the scarring didn't improve significantly. Additionally, using it alone feels a bit drying, as it lacks oil. I think I need to add a bit of moisture back to my skin before applying the cica cream.

I don't know what came over me, but I started frantically rubbing my face with a cotton swab. As a result, my skin peeled off, became irritated, and turned extremely red. I really felt like the world was crumbling down😭 I know I shouldn't have squeezed it, but I almost cried out of regret😭 So while frantically searching Hwahae for information on healing creams, I saw the SOS cream, but it was said to be too thick and rich, so I was hesitant... Meanwhile, the Blue Gel had just been released and I saw a lot of ads for it. Coincidentally, Olive Young was giving away cleansing gels, so I just bought it all! (I've been meaning to write a review, but I've been changing my skincare routine a lot during this period, so I wanted to try it out a bit more before writing. Today's the day!) The result is satisfactory (though not completely satisfied)⭐️ Since I've used a product that claims to have a soothing effect, I'm not sure if that's the reason, but the redness was significantly reduced the next day, and my makeup didn't look too cakey (though having a good skincare routine helped too). The ingredients also seem gentler compared to the SOS cream. There's only one type of alcohol in it! The fragrance is unscented. There's no fragrance at all. The product is called Blue Gel, and it really is a blue-colored lotion. And I think 'lotion' is a more appropriate term for this than 'cream' (it's not even categorized as a cream). The tube has a narrow opening, so it's easy to control the amount. Anyway, if you need quick soothing relief, I'd recommend gently applying this morning and night👍
ConsIn my experience, it has 10% moisture and 0% oil! It only feels moisturizing at the moment of application, but afterwards, there's just a slightly cooling sensation and hardly any moisture left. (That's why I'm taking off one star!) I think this is because it's for fall/winter. In the summer, those with oily skin might find this enough on its own. As for me, I'll still use a cream on top... It doesn't simply make the bumps disappear. The 'soothing effect' I'm referring to is the calming of irritated acne, not the disappearance of closed comedones. Around 2-3 out of 10 people say this product really doesn't agree with them... So please use it cautiously. Don't apply too much!! It can cause small breakouts to pop up. Always use the right amount☝️
TipI've heard that using the Blue Gel and SOS cream together can have a synergistic effect. I'll try that out and if I remember, I'll come back and write about it later 👋
