  Pros

  Texture: It looks thick, but it applies surprisingly smoothly and softly. Hydration: This product is perfect for winter moisturizing. As the final step in my skincare routine, I apply it generously. For my dry skin, it creates a protective barrier that keeps me less dehydrated until the next morning.

  Cons

  However, now that the weather is getting warmer, unless it's an especially dry day, my skin tends to reject it, which is a bit disappointing. Also, I prefer squeeze tubes over jar packaging, so that's a minor drawback, but it's not a deal-breaker.

  Pros

  I started using this product after receiving recommendations for my severe inner dryness following winter. When applied as the final step in my evening routine, it keeps my skin hydrated until the next morning. Despite being sensitive to artificial fragrances, I find this product's scent unique and pleasantly subtle. The texture isn't thick; instead, it melts into the skin like a cleansing balm, transforming into an oil-like consistency. Although the quantity seems small, a little goes a long way for sufficient coverage.

  Cons

  Being a rich formula, it does take longer to absorb into the skin. While this product is part of a firming line, the effects on skin elasticity aren't particularly dramatic.

  Pros

  I've been using this for years and love how it keeps my skin hydrated without any dryness. The rich texture is perfect for my skin.

  Cons

  For dry skin, the high oil content creates a dewy effect, but it might not be suitable for oily skin types.

  Pros

  I love the ISOI brand, but it's a bit pricey for a budget-conscious homemaker to buy everything that's recommended. So, I try products once and stick with the ones I like. Among those, there's one I've been using for over 4 years - the Intensive Energizing EX Cream. I ran out and repurchased after 3 months, and I'm still recommending it after using it again! The skin firming and hydration effects are absolutely fantastic! Especially on dry skin, its rich formula provides both moisture and nourishment simultaneously, which is wonderful. Applying an extra layer before bed is as effective as using a mask. Unless you have very oily skin, I highly recommend it. Even though it feels a bit rich, there's no stickiness, which is great. As my skin is becoming drier, I find it's not too heavy even for morning use. It doesn't cause my makeup to pill, which would be a deal-breaker. Above all, if you're looking for products with great ingredients, this is a must-try! You'll notice the difference when you wake up in the morning!

  Cons

  The slightly heavy texture might make it feel slow to absorb, but using it as a night cream alone is sufficient for great results.

  Tip

  I've been using ISOI Intensive Energizing Cream for 5 years now. In summer, I mix it half-and-half with a soothing gel or lightweight moisturizer for a lighter application that's still packed with nourishment!

  Pros

  I don't use it every day, but rather intermittently (my skin isn't particularly dry). Sometimes when I press my skin, it feels firm underneath. While it feels rich when applying, the next day my skin feels plump! I think it would be even better for those with dry skin!!

  Cons

  The rose scent is a bit too strong... and the texture is slightly rich (though those with dry skin might find it absorbs quickly)

  Tip

  I didn't use it daily, but rather about once every three days!

  Pros

  This cream is incredibly rich, so when I apply it on dry nights before bed, my face doesn't feel tight the next morning.

  Cons

  - Scent: The fragrance is truly unpleasant. It seems to be a rose scent, but it's just irritating. That's why I only apply it right before falling asleep. Regardless of other factors, I strongly discourage purchasing this due to the scent. I highly recommend smelling it first, whether it's a friend's or a sample. - Oiliness: I have combination dehydrated skin, but my nose is oily. When I apply this, it causes an oil explosion, so I avoid putting it on my nose. - Price: I absolutely won't buy this again at this price. I'll use it up quickly by applying it to my arms and legs just to finish it.

  Tip

  I'm extremely disappointed, especially given how high my expectations were.

  Pros

  I've been using this product religiously for years, from fall through spring. Even my mom, who's tried many department store brand creams, switched to this one, saying it's incredibly effective (especially considering the value for money). Highly recommended for dry skin. It's non-irritating, so even those with super sensitive skin can use it with confidence. However, if you currently have blemishes, I'd suggest patch testing first.

  Cons

  There's nothing particularly negative to say. Although the size is small, a little goes a long way in terms of hydration, so it actually lasts quite a while.

  Tip

  For the ultimate lifting effect, try using this alongside the Estée Lauder brown bottle serum.

  When applied as the final step of your skincare routine in winter, it keeps your skin hydrated until morning, combating dryness effectively

  Cons

  The downside is its somewhat high price, and if you apply too much, it can make your skin look a bit greasy

  Tip

  I use it as the last step in my skincare routine

  Pros

  Most Isoi cosmetics seem to perform above average. Although the volume is quite small at only 30ml, which is disappointing considering many products now come in 100ml sizes, it's still great for my skin. As someone with extremely dry skin that feels deeply dehydrated in winter, I find the hydration excellent. If you use it as an intensive care cream only in the evening, it should last quite a while. However, if applied morning and night, you might go through it in about two weeks. I can slather it generously all over my face without getting any blemishes, but those with combination or oily skin should be cautious. The scent is unique - I can't quite place it. Personally, I'm not a fan, but since it makes my skin feel so much more comfortable when it's painfully dry, I can overlook the fragrance. It works well when applied sparingly as the final step in your skincare routine.

  Cons

  The volume, that's it! Everything else is fine. If I had to nitpick, maybe the scent?

  Tip

  As someone with access to the military PX, I can purchase this at a very affordable price there. If you know any military personnel, you might want to ask them for help!

  Pros

  As someone in their mid-40s with dry skin and concerns about wrinkles, I found this cream to be incredibly hydrating and effective at combating dryness, especially considering its price point.

  Cons

  While it doesn't keep my skin moisturized all day when applied in the morning, the hydration does last for quite a long time.

  Tip

  I've discovered a great application technique: warm the cream between your palms, then gently press and roll it onto your face. The result is so deeply hydrating that on lazy days, you might even skip your usual mask routine.
