- br****Combination SkinWrinkles/ElasticityRecommendedDec 11, 2020
True to its name - Lift & Firm. This cream lifts sagging skin and provides elasticity. Plus, it contains ceramides for a moisturizing effect and natural glow. Texture: As soft and white as baby skin. The cream's silky texture feels luxurious and is a pleasure to apply. Color: No added pigments. Scent: A subtle fragrance that disappears after application. Packaging: Slightly disappointing it's not in a glass jar. It comes in a plastic container, so I use a spatula to apply. Longevity: About 10 hours (impressive for a night cream). Post-application texture: Creates a moisturized glow. As I mentioned in my review of the Ceramide Lift & Firm Day Cream, I started using the Night Cream as a Day Cream because the Day version's sunscreen irritated my eyes. Since I apply sunscreen separately anyway, using the Night Cream in the morning doesn't irritate my eyes and doubles as an eye cream, saving time and money. No need for a separate eye cream - it's gentle enough to use around the eyes. It's a non-irritating multi-purpose cream. On really busy mornings, I can skip other skincare steps, just apply the Lift & Firm Cream and sunscreen, and I'm done. Being an imported product, it was unavailable during Spring and Summer 2020 due to COVID-19 import restrictions, even if you had the money. It's now back in department stores. It contains 20 caution ingredients and potential allergens. However, when you use it, it doesn't cause allergies and works well, so sometimes these ingredient analyses aren't helpful. I checked other brand creams, and they all contain similar ingredients - Laf*, Lan*, Sisl*, Cha*, La M*. I think global cosmetic companies generally include these for stability reasons, to prevent separation. Domestic Korean brands don't necessarily need to include them. Even Korean brands that once pursued 'zero harmful/allergenic ingredients' have started reintroducing ingredients like limonene in their reformulations. For morning use, I primarily use a light water essence before applying the Ceramide Lift & Firm Cream for superior elasticity, hydration, and lasting power. At night, I apply Advanced Ceramide Capsules before the cream for a synergistic lifting effect. It also pairs well with other capsules (retinol, hyaluronic acid, vitamin C). Pro tip: The skin performance is more noticeable if you lie down right after application. I stock up during 1+1 promotions at department stores, mainly buying the night cream. These promotions aren't available on department store online malls like Hyundai Mall or Lotte iMall. Even with COVID-19 limiting outings, I still go to Hyun* Department Store to buy cosmetics.
