Hydrating

If you have dry skin, dampen your face with tap water or mist with purified water before moving on to toner. The toner and essence steps are essential. After toner and essence, if your skin is too damp when applying the emulsion, it can become dry later. Let it absorb a bit first. Use different amounts of emulsion depending on the season: summer < transitional seasons < winter. Things to pay attention to: Start by applying water, use the right amount of toner and essence (not too much or too little), don't over-absorb or under-absorb, don't use too much or too little emulsion, and adjust the amount based on season and humidity. This might sound confusing, but understanding it will help your skin suffer less. The same product can work or not work depending on how much you apply, and the level of absorption can determine whether your skin becomes dry or not. I hope someone reads this and finds it inspiring!

It's not very hydrating when used alone. You need to use toner and essence well. For those who find it greasy, make sure to properly hydrate in the previous steps before applying. For combination dehydrated skin, when it's dry (lacking water, not oil), it produces more oil. Combination skin = compromised barrier, so avoid harsh cleansing. It damages the skin and produces more oil. Dead skin cells are precious - don't exfoliate! Lots of flaking? It means 'I'm hurting, I'm dry, I'm in the process of healing.' Exfoliating = picking scabs, preventing skin regeneration, and aging faster.

I've been using this emulsion for almost 10 years. No other moisturizer works for me... I struggled for so long to find the right one. It's a holy grail for super sensitive skin. Madagascar emulsion + tea tree cleanser = perfection! Using toner and essence well, then applying this centella emulsion long-term really helps improve many skin concerns.

마다가스카르 병풀 로션

From the second day, I felt a slight tingling sensation and noticed an increase in blemishes, so I stopped using it

I decided to try this since I've been enjoying the body cream from the same line, but it didn't suit my face

According to the emulsion comparison chart on Sidmool's product page, this leans more towards hydration (freshness) rather than rich moisture (high hydration). So when used alone, you might feel a bit of dryness. To combat deep dryness, it might be better to first charge your skin with hydration using a toner or watery essence before applying this emulsion.

I love centella extract as an ingredient, and this product contains a high concentration of 80% centella extract along with standardized centella extract, which is great. It's been a while since I've used an emulsion type product. I usually use watery ampoules or essences, but this non-runny emulsion texture is easy to apply without dripping. The application is light, moisturizing, and hydrating without being sticky, which I'm really satisfied with. I love how it makes my skin feel firm and supple. The pump packaging is convenient, and although I used to apply a lot, I found that 3-4 pumps patted into the skin absorbs quickly and feels refreshing.

I wonder if the packaging could be a bit more minimalist.
But the more I look at it, the more it grows on me... For the Madagascar line,
this cute packaging style seems to fit well!

Quick review:
Great ingredients and soothing effects, but sensitive skin types should patch test first!

I felt a slight tingling when I first applied it.
There might be an ingredient that doesn't agree with me,
but I haven't had any blemishes, so I'm continuing to use it.
It's really a case of 'your mileage may vary' - those who find it suitable will love it!

Firstly, the hydration is perfect for combination dehydrated skin.
It absorbs quickly, so there's no pilling when applying makeup or sunscreen.

I love that it's fragrance-free and has a natural scent from its ingredients.
Sidmool really seems to excel at this kind of product.

Probably due to its high centella asiatica content,
when I apply it before bed, any redness
is completely gone by morning.

If only it didn't tingle...
It could have been my holy grail emulsion.
What a shame...
Make sure to test it behind your ear before using it on your face!

It works well for me, so I don't have any particular complaints. If you want to try a centella product but find the Madagascar moisturizer too pricey, I'd recommend this one.

The centella asiatica is great for daily soothing. The texture isn't too thick, but soft and smooth, so it should work well for all but very oily skin types.

There's nothing particularly bad. Well, there's a slight white cast when applied, but it disappears over time... so I really can't think of any drawbacks.

The ingredients are great! It contains 80% centella asiatica in the emulsion and 4 key powdered centella components. It definitely provides effective soothing care.

Scent: It has a clay-like smell, similar to what I've often encountered in unscented products. However, the scent is quite strong and lingers for a while.

Oiliness: It's quite rich. Compared to the green tea cream I used before instead of emulsion, there's a noticeable difference. It leaves a shiny finish.

Hydration: If you have dry skin, you might find it insufficient. Even with my combination dehydrated skin, I feel some deep dryness. Also, it absorbs rather slowly.

I bought this because the reviews on the homepage were good, but I should have checked the Hwahae reviews too. I don't think I'll be able to use this well. I'll probably stick to my usual cream.

To be honest, there's not much I can say that's positive... The texture is quite thin.

Hmm, there were both pros and cons, I guess... It was just an ordinary lotion without any major issues.

It's nice to use the centella skin and lotion as a set.
It's ordinary, good for gifts, and the moisturizing effect seems moderate.
I used it when my skin was sensitive, but I didn't notice a big difference even when I skipped it.

I tried using this instead of Stiva A, but I'm not sure about the skin regeneration effects.

It seems I just used it normally.
Absorption doesn't seem to be that great.

 Pro Tip: Try mixing in a drop or two of jojoba oil. It makes the lotion more moisturizing and absorptive, with no sticky residue. You'll find the blackheads have melted away by morning. I'd recommend this to sensitive, dry skin types who respond well to centella.

 👉 Downsides

1. Slow absorption.
Since it's a formula with simple, gentle ingredients, the absorption is not as great. There's a slight white cast when applying, but it disappears quickly if you gently pat it in. You'll need to take the time to let it absorb properly.

(Updated)

2023.04.30
As I've been using it, I've noticed some small blemish breakouts, possibly due to the oiliness. It was fine for the first few weeks, but the warmer weather may be a factor. I don't recommend this for dehydrated skin types. Those with dry skin who respond well to centella would likely find this product suitable.

 ❤️ One-line Overall Review: Moisturizing Soothing Recovery Lotion ❤️

👉 Skin Type: Highly Sensitive, Dehydrated

👉 The skin has experienced steroid ointment side effects. Although it has recovered to some extent after treatment, there are still reddish scars and redness, and the skin has become highly sensitive and prone to inflammation.

👉 Verified Recommended Product:
I will update the product review I wrote for the 'Cynic The Simple Daily Lotion' product.


❤️ Centella Asiatica Lotion from Sidmool

👉 Product Features

1. Ingredients: It contains 80% centella extract and 4 types of powdered centella ingredients. Centella ingredients help with problem skin and barrier management. It would be suitable for those who respond well to centella, sensitive skin, and those recovering from subsided breakouts.

2. Texture: It's a lightweight, watery lotion type. It spreads smoothly and softly. However, due to the minimal ingredients, it absorbs slowly and has a slight white cast. You'll need to pat it in gently for absorption.

3. Moisturizing: As I have dehydrated skin, I feel it's a bit oily for me. Those with dry skin will likely find it sufficiently moisturizing.

4. Efficacy: Personally, as someone with highly sensitive skin who has experienced steroid side effects, this lotion quickly calmed the redness and most importantly, it balanced my oil and moisture levels, leaving my skin feeling moisturized without any residue.

👉 What I Liked

1. Gentle, centella-based formula!
You know sensitive skin should avoid products with too many functional ingredients, right? The simpler and gentler the formula, the better it suits sensitive skin, and it's also easier to identify the problem. This lotion has centella, the key ingredient for skin recovery, as the core component, and it's formulated with other gentle ingredients, making it suitable for sensitive skin types. Even with my highly sensitive skin from steroid side effects, the soothing effect was excellent.

I won't be repurchasing.
It's a basic, basic item. If you have no trouble and want to use it gently, go ahead and buy it!

I wanted to see the centella effect, but it feels like the skin barrier is weakened.
It has no effect at all.
So I recommend it to normal skin types.

You have to pat it on heavily to make it look white.
The moisture is weak. It's a moisture dew.
Karen has some oil, but this one has even less!

It's great for lightweight use in the summer.
As the dry weather approaches, my dry skin is not enough with just a cream. At first, there is moisture, but after a few hours, it becomes dry.

Although it absorbs slowly, it significantly improves the tightness of my skin. When I apply it before bed and get some sleep, my skin condition is quite good the next day.

1. Oil content is a double-edged sword. It can make my skin look shiny as shown in the picture.
2. It absorbs slowly, so I don't use it in the mornings when I'm in a hurry.

1. It suits me well as a person with sensitive skin.
2. When I apply it generously at night and go to sleep, my makeup applies well the next day.
3. As I have combination skin with dehydration, it provides the right amount of moisture and oil that my skin needs without feeling greasy.
4. It does not have an unpleasant fragrance.
