I'm writing this on the last day of the review period to give the product a thorough try and observe its effects on my skin. Feeling a bit shy knowing others will read this... haha! Let me start by sharing my skin condition and routine. Up until 10th grade, I was always complimented on my skin. But as I entered 11th and 12th grade, hormones and stress triggered a massive acne outbreak. For a year and a half, my acne would subside and flare up repeatedly. Recently, it had calmed down leaving only some marks, but suddenly I experienced a 'welcome back party' of tiny bumps all over my face. With the semester starting soon and an important appointment coming up, I would normally have gone for an extraction at the dermatologist. But lacking time, I used 11 cotton swabs to squeeze them all out myself. Right after that, I received this cream. Now, let me tell you about my routine with this cream. On days without going out: Same for day and night On days I went out: Night routine After cleansing, I occasionally use a sheet mask or a clay mask (I recently tried a clay mask for the first time and plan to review it after a few more weeks of use). Otherwise, I apply a generous amount of mist (not the fine spray type, but one that forms visible droplets if over-applied), then use toner to refine skin texture and provide basic hydration. Then I immediately apply this cream. On days I go out: Daytime routine After cleansing, I use mist and toner for skin refinement and basic hydration, occasionally a sheet mask, hydrating serum, and a light moisturizer (cream usage varies daily), followed by makeup application. Here's why I used this routine and the pros and cons: ✔ Hydration The hydrating power is quite good! I have combination dehydrated skin, but to properly test the cream's effects, I applied it right after toner. It provided sufficient basic hydration. However, I felt it was more rich than hydrating! ✔ Soothing effect The skin-soothing effect was better than expected! Since I did the extraction at home, it wasn't perfect, and some spots were resurfacing. But after using this cream, no new spots appeared. Of course, when I woke up too late and missed my cleansing time, one or two would pop up... hehe. ✔ Brightening effect It seemed to lighten scars and even out my skin tone. Due to acne marks, my skin tone was uneven, but it became more uniform - not exactly brightening, but more like evening out the skin tone. The boundaries of patchy areas caused by acne scars became less noticeable, resulting in a more refined complexion! Considering I've only used it for a few weeks, the results are really noticeable! I think the skin tone evening effect was even more impressive than the soothing effect!! Personally, I think this brightening effect alone makes it worth buying and using. I'm considering purchasing another one for winter use once I finish this one.
Cons✔ Insufficient absorption It doesn't fully absorb, leaving a noticeable layer on the skin. Due to this incomplete absorption, there's a heavy feeling from the residue left on the face. This made me hesitant to use it on days when I needed to go out or wear makeup. ✔ Rich texture As time passes after application, the excess cream on the surface turns into an oily layer covering the entire face. I tend to strongly dislike oily textures, so this was a bit much for me... hehe. For this reason alone, I definitely couldn't use it when going out. It felt particularly unsuitable for summer outings... Of course, some might argue that summer is better than winter for hydration, but as someone who absolutely hates oily feelings in summer, I think it's more suitable for winter! It really depends on what you prioritize! I think it's best to use it according to your personal preferences. ✔ Regular price purchase The price point isn't exactly what I'd call affordable... Considering its limited usability for going out, the price seems a bit high, but... When I think about its soothing and brightening effects, it does seem worth the price. I might need to look out for sales or consider purchasing from social commerce sites!
Tip✔ Since it has more of a rich texture than a hydrating one, and focuses more on brightening and functional effects rather than basic hydration, I recommend using it in your evening skincare routine! ✔ Personally, I found the rich texture and heavy feeling a bit burdensome, so I think it's better suited for winter than summer! The weight felt just right for winter use! ✔ I really love the spatula that comes with it! I'll probably keep using the spatula even after I finish the cream, haha! ✔ When applying, I noticed it doesn't absorb well if you use it like a regular moisturizer. For those who, like me, don't use any products between toner and cream, try spreading a thin layer and then gently patting and massaging it in with three fingers. You're not adding more cream, but helping the initial amount absorb! The basic hydration is quite good, so there's no need to increase the amount! Plus, if you just increase the amount without proper absorption, it'll just sit on top of your skin without sinking in. ❗Those who apply serum, essence, or emulsion before the cream shouldn't use this method, you know?❗ It'll disrupt the previous layers... This tip is only for those who apply the cream right after toner!

When I first opened the box, the cream's packaging reminded me of a takeout coffee cup - I found the design quite unique and appealing. I was pleased to see that it contains skin-friendly ingredients. After finishing my nighttime skincare routine with this cream, I noticed that when I washed my face in the morning, my skin felt like it had a protective layer. It's a thin, yellow cream with a consistency similar to an emulsion. This cream alone seems to add a protective barrier to the skin. It's deeply hydrating. On the first day of use, I noticed a blemish and wondered if it was due to the cream, but it turned out to be for other physiological reasons. After using the Honey Green Brilliant Cream for three days, all my blemishes subsided. Plus, you get a generous 90g of product.
ConsIf your previous skincare products haven't fully absorbed, this cream tends to sit on top of the skin, making application time-consuming. This made it a bit inconvenient for my morning makeup routine before work. The scent might be polarizing for some users.
TipI used the Wonder Honey Green Brilliant Cream after toner, ampoule, or essence. It's important to ensure that the previous layers are thin and fully absorbed before applying this cream.

It seems like it'll last for ages. You only need a small amount to cover your entire face. When I tested a bit on the back of my hand, it had a viscous texture (slightly mucus-like). Upon applying it to my face, my initial impression was that it might be a bit sticky, and I worried it wouldn't absorb well. However, it didn't sit on top of the skin at all - instead, it left my complexion moisturized and glowing. As someone who personally dislikes sticky products on my face... Anyway, before giving birth I had oily skin and only used lightweight products, but after delivery my skin became extremely dry. So I've been focusing on hydration in my skincare routine, and I'm pleased with how moisturizing and firming this cream is. I skip emulsion and just use toner to even my skin tone before applying this cream, and it's perfect! I don't believe in layering too many products on your face. The added benefit of this product having whitening properties means I don't need to use separate brightening products!
ConsThe scent might be divisive, but I found it okay! It doesn't seem to have a chemical smell. Personally, I'm not a fan of cosmetics that require a spatula. Even though it has a protective cap as a secondary lid, it's difficult to maintain and somehow dust always manages to get in... That's just my personal gripe! Also, I think those with oily skin might find it doesn't absorb well and sits on top of the skin when mixed with their natural oils. Still, it's quite lightweight for a cream! Recommended for dry skin types! It would be great to use with a hydrating cream during fall and winter for extra moisture!
TipIt would be great to apply a generous amount before bed and use it as an overnight mask! While applying the cream, give yourself a facial massage to help it absorb thoroughly, and don't forget to extend it to your neck to manage neck wrinkles in one go - that's a pro tip! (No matter how youthful your face looks, deep neck wrinkles can age you. While makeup or procedures can conceal facial signs of aging, neck wrinkles don't lie!)

(Current skin condition: Hormonal blemishes, one picked and bleeding.) Even during my most sensitive time of the month, this cream caused no irritation or stinging on broken skin. It's like the perfect 'neutral' moisturizer. The balance of oil and hydration is spot-on! It might be a bit light for dry skin and a touch rich for oily skin, but it's perfect for combination types (highly recommended for oily skin in summer - it'll feel so fresh!). I'm thrilled with it. After using it overnight, there was no excess oiliness, and yet... it's as if I applied nothing at all - my skin texture remained the same. I've never found a truly 'neutral' cream before, nor have I been this satisfied with a product. How can I express this joy? Glycerin is the second ingredient... While skincare is usually just a pre-makeup step for me, this cream excels at that role too. I won't expect any brightening effects since that's not really what cosmetics are for, but I'll definitely use this during seasonal changes when my skin needs extra care. Thank you for introducing such a great product!
Cons(Finally found a downside after extended use) For me, skincare is usually just about adding moisture before makeup, so my routine is simple: cleanse, cream, foundation. However, when I tried layering this with a new ampoule I bought, absorption became slower. It took about 5 minutes of massaging to fully absorb, and before that, it left a white cast that made me wonder what was going on. But when used with other products, it actually increases the rich feeling, which I like.
