I didn't experience any breakouts either.
ConsIf you use a bit too much, it can feel a bit heavy and sticky on the face for a while. I guess that's because it's a product that helps with dryness. I applied a generous amount, wore a mask, and felt stuffy, so I had to wash my face as soon as I got home. Other than that, it seems like a pretty good product.
TipDon't apply too much, just use an amount the size of a bean and spread it thinly. If you feel it's not enough, you can always add more.

I didn't apply it to my face, and the hospital-prescribed cream and medication were not refreshing, but my atopic dermatitis has been flaring up on my arms and legs lately, so I tried various things, and this worked the best for me. I remember hearing somewhere that the cica ingredient is good for atopic dermatitis, so I tried it, and the redness has subsided a lot, and the skin damage and turtle-like skin caused by scratching due to atopic dermatitis have recovered quickly. (I'm not sure if it's visible in the photo though 😢) Now, only scars remain, and this is the first time my recovery has been this fast. I've used other creams with cica ingredients before, and they seemed fine for a day or two, but then got bad again, but I've been using this for over 2 weeks now, and it's still working well. With the weather getting more humid and hotter these days, this level of effectiveness is the best for me. The scent is a subtle herb and lemon, which is fine since it dissipates quickly.
ConsIt feels stuffy if applied too thickly. It doesn't seem to absorb very quickly. I haven't tried it on my face. It seems better to use it on its own. Honestly, since I've seen the effects on the parts I needed the most, any downsides aren't really issues for me...
TipI bought it during the Isoi 1+1 event. The cica line is often on sale, so I didn't want to pay the full price. Those who don't find it suitable for their face may feel a bit frustrated(?), but try applying it thinly and broadly all over your body instead of just using it as a lotion. It really works better for me than most regular lotions.

ConsFor my oily skin, it felt a bit heavy and stuffy. It was greasy.

However, it may be a bit oily for oily skin types, but it seems to be good for redness and soothing. The price is a bit expensive though. ㅠㅠㅜ
ConsIt can be a bit oily for oily skin types, and there's a sense of heaviness to it.

ConsThe redness seems to subside temporarily. After using it for about a week, I think I need to use it for a bit longer to see the full effects. As someone with dry skin, I find this product to be too oily and drying. I have to apply a moisturizer on top, which makes it feel heavy and stuffy. The product itself has good spreadability, but it doesn't absorb well.

My skin barrier is much thinner than the average person's. So my skin can flip from good to bad and vice versa in a single day. When it's irritated, I apply the Cicago ampoule, but when I use this cream, my skin feels so soothed and calmed down - it's one of my must-have items! I can't live without it. For my weak and thin-barrier skin, the creamy and ointment-like texture of this cream feels like it's forming a sturdy skin barrier on top of my face. But it doesn't feel heavy or greasy at all - it absorbs well into the skin. After applying, my irritated skin is greatly soothed, and it effectively prevents water loss. The cream has a rich but non-greasy texture that makes my skin feel plump and healthy. It's as if it's creating an additional healthy barrier for my thin and weak skin. It feels incredibly comfortable. I've already repurchased this twice and will continue to stock up on it. It might feel a bit heavy in the summer, but it works well for all other seasons.
ConsFor those with oily skin, this cream might feel a bit occlusive. When I wear this cream and exercise or sweat, I don't experience a refreshing, free-flowing sweat. Instead, it feels like a healthy barrier has formed on my skin, making it harder for the sweat to come out. So for people with a lot of sweat or oil, this cream might feel too occlusive and uncomfortable for their skin.

The fragrance is nice.
ConsThere is more oil than moisture, so my skin feels like it's covered in a greasy film, which is suffocating. After applying and sleeping, a few red bumps appeared on my skin. The texture is thick and not quickly absorbed, leaving a sticky and tacky feeling after application.
TipI would recommend this to someone who needs more oil than moisture.

None of the products in the range were suitable for me. The cream that I found met all the claims it made - (skin irritation, redness, soothing the troubled area) it addressed them all. My skin was really irritated and I was receiving treatment, but I don't know what didn't agree with me, my face was itchy and bumpy and in a mess. The moment I applied it, my skin calmed down!! The moment I applied it, the itchiness and burning sensation immediately subsided and my skin felt so comfortable 😭😭 I applied it in the evening and by the next day, my skin had significantly calmed down. Ah... this is my holy grail soothing product ♡♡♡ It has saved me so many times when I was in a hurry.
ConsThe usage feel is not great. It feels like I've applied sunscreen...! At first, it feels a bit oily and takes some time to absorb, and while it's not as greasy as some, it does have a slightly sticky feel to it. Compared to that texture, the moisturizing feel is a bit lacking. Ugh, if I apply more, my skin will feel suffocated. As a dry-skinned person, I want to apply it generously to feel moisturized, but it ends up feeling heavy and if I apply less, it feels dry... But at least it sinks in quickly. I don't use it daily, only when my skin is irritated, and the tube format is not very convenient, so I carry it with me when I travel.
TipIf you request a sample, they'll send you a free cream and ampoule sample, so try them out first! The formula is one where the user's preference can vary a lot depending on the amount applied.
