This is a staple in my skincare routine. It absorbs well and has good application. I recommend it for all skin types. You can use it year-round! Based on my experience, it didn't cause any blemishes. I like to apply an extra layer around my eyes and nasolabial folds before bed. The product also comes in a small size, which is great for touch-ups on the go. I even bought the smaller version separately to take on trips. - Hwahae UserOily SkinSensitive SkinJul 27, 2024
As someone who usually prefers richer, more nourishing products, I wasn't particularly interested in Etude's Soon Jung line because they seemed too lightweight. However, I decided to try this Cica Balm after seeing so many positive reviews, and now I understand why people love it! Using it, I can see why it's so popular. The texture is light, and it feels incredibly weightless when applied to the face, yet it still packs a punch in terms of effectiveness. It doesn't skimp on hydration and has a noticeable calming effect on the skin. It's been a while since I've found a product that applies so lightly while still providing such great moisture. I'm currently using it as a spot treatment, but I'd love to see a larger size for daily use as an all-over cream. It's also fantastic when mixed with an aloe pack! Being non-comedogenic, gentle in formulation, and non-irritating, I'd recommend this to those with sensitive skin or anyone looking for ample hydration without the heaviness of a rich cream. The only real downside is the small size. While it's not actually that small compared to the standard 50ml creams, the lightweight texture means you tend to use more product, so it runs out quickly! - Hwahae UserDry SkinFeb 13, 2024
It absorbs well, and although it feels a bit heavy at first, once it sinks in, it's not sticky at all, which I really like. However, if you have dry skin, you might find it's not quite moisturizing enough. It feels like a thin film covering your skin. Still, since it's a cica product, I'm using it with the expectation that it will have a soothing effect. Cica products seem to often come in unusually thick containers, which can be a bit inconvenient to use. But I suppose there must be a reason for it. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinAcne SkinSensitive SkinNov 24, 2023
It looked thick at first, but when I applied it, the texture wasn't bad at all I was disappointed by how oily it felt. It was a bit heavy even in winter - Hwahae UserCombination SkinAcne SkinSep 14, 2023
It's thicker than an emulsion but still applies smoothly for a night cream. The tube packaging makes it convenient to use. It seems gentle - I didn't experience much irritation even on my sensitive skin. As someone with combination dehydrated skin, I found it moisturizing without being too greasy. Based on my skin type, I can't really find any downsides to mention. - Hwahae UserDehydrated SkinJul 6, 2023
It absorbs well and doesn't leave my skin feeling dry underneath. I find that the 5% version makes my skin look better in the morning compared to the 10% version. There's hardly any oiliness, which leaves my skin feeling matte after a while. Personally, I'd prefer it if it had a bit more richness to it. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinAtopy SkinSensitive SkinJun 28, 2023
I think I'm on my third tube already! I was worried that since it's called a 'cica balm', it might be greasy or too heavy to apply on my face in summer. But it actually applies lightly and absorbs well, so I'd recommend it even for those with oily skin. I love how it quickly soothes areas where blemishes have popped up! There's nothing particularly disappointing about it, though I wish it went on sale more often! - Hwahae UserNormal SkinAcne SkinMay 9, 2023
It absorbs smoothly, and when I wake up, my skin feels noticeably improved There's not really anything to complain about. If I had to nitpick, maybe the amount isn't as generous as I'd like..? This would be great for those dealing with redness on their face - Hwahae UserCombination SkinApr 16, 2023
Adorable size Perfect balance of richness Just the right amount of hydration Absorbs beautifully Excellent for soothing No downsides Wish there was a bit more product Great, great, great Truly fantastic So good! - Hwahae UserDry SkinSensitive SkinMar 23, 2023
It absorbs smoothly and has just the right amount of richness, giving me a feeling that my complexion is brightening up. My skin is currently super sensitive, and when I applied more during dry spells, it felt itchy - perhaps I used too much.
