The balm-like texture feels luxuriously moisturizing on the skin.
ConsThere's not much to complain about. If anything, it's a bit pricier than some other creams.

I could apply it generously without worrying about blemishes, which was a relief. The texture is rich, but it melts nicely when you spread it. Right after application, it feels a bit dewy, but not in the typical greasy way of regular creams. Instead, it gives a deep, moisturizing sensation that penetrates the skin. It doesn't cause pilling under makeup either. I've been using it comfortably until May, and I think it would work great as an overnight mask during summer.
ConsThe price. However, the Isoi app frequently offers discount coupons, so make sure to purchase it at a reduced price!
TipI use a cotton swab to scoop out the product. Since it's a balm type, it's easy to pick up with a cotton swab.

Energizing From the moment you scoop out this cream, you can feel its rich, nourishing quality! Despite its firm texture, it applies smoothly. I love how it doesn't feel thick but rather seems to meld with the skin. 2. Firming Balm True to its focus on firming, after application, my skin feels more supple in the morning. It's like my skin has become more elastic, almost like well-kneaded dough! 3. Eye Cream Combo I apply a small amount before my eye cream, and it seems to work wonders for preventing fine lines around the eyes.
Cons1. Price It's truly wicked! Unless it's on sale, the small size with such a steep price makes me hesitate. However, its concentrated formula does last a long time. 2. Pores Not recommended for those prone to clogged pores. It can feel a bit heavy. While it's more of an improvement cream than a hydrating one, its balm-like texture might not suit those with oily skin. It can feel itchy and suffocating.
TipEye Area Care: Apply a small amount around the eyes before your eye cream. It significantly improves eye area firmness, making your eye cream feel even more effective afterwards.

Hydration: After testing, I found it absorbs deeply and evenly into the skin. Texture: It has a rich, creamy balm consistency.
ConsThe price is quite steep, making it challenging to purchase without a discount. Aside from that, I haven't noticed any other drawbacks so far.

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.Pros1. Strong hydration 2. Skin-friendly ingredients + No blemishes 3. Improves elasticity While it's famous for being a firming cream, I bought the balm type as it suits my extremely dry skin better! For a balm, it absorbs surprisingly well. It has a chewy, cream cheese-like consistency. There's a subtle fragrance, but it's so delicate it's not off-putting. While the effects aren't dramatic, there's definitely more elasticity compared to when I don't use it. I haven't tried it in summer, but it's a holy grail hydrating product for dry autumn and winter months♥ When I apply it at night and wake up, my skin feels moisturized and soft :)
Cons1. Price The ingredients are almost identical to the firming cream, yet it's more expensive. While it may not be the most budget-friendly, it's effective for its price point. 2. Application Naturally, being a balm type, it's rich - but personally, I wish it was just a tad less so. It would be nice if it spread a bit more easily, like an emulsion.
Tip1. Buy it when it's on sale at the drugstore! 2. Use only at night, apply a thin layer as the last step of your skincare routine, spreading a small amount widely. It's also great for the eye and mouth areas. 3. If it feels a bit thick when applying, mix in a tiny amount of facial oil for easier application.

That's why I bought this to use together. If you're someone who feels dry no matter what you apply, you'll likely be satisfied with this. It's a balm type, so it's best to scoop it out with a spatula. The texture is like a night cream that goes inside bread? But when you rub it on the back of your hand or face, it releases a burst of oil and moisture. It applies comfortably on the face and really tackles deep dryness. The hydration lasts long and it's amazing. When you wake up, your skin feels comfortable and moisturized. It's a true lifesaver during the dry season.
ConsThe price is on the higher side compared to other ISOI products. If shea butter doesn't agree with your skin, you should avoid this!
TipWhether you melt it well by rubbing it on the back of your hand or on your face, make sure to rub it in thoroughly for that burst of hydration. That's when this product really shines!

Despite its thick, ointment-like texture, it spreads thinly with just a small amount. Most importantly, it addressed both my deep dryness and surface hydration issues that had been causing endless discomfort. My severe deep dryness was somewhat alleviated by Isoi's 'Bulgarian Rose Intensive Emulsion'. However, from autumn onwards, even that wasn't enough. I tried everything - Physiogel, Beyond Phyto Aqua Moisture Cream, Sioris Super Moist Cream, and more. They were all good, but the skin tightness would return after a while. My mom, who originally used Isoi's Energizing Intensive Cream (the white jar), tried this one and said it was less rich but surprisingly more effective at preventing skin tightness. So, I secretly tried it too! It's fascinating - despite its thick, ointment-like texture that doesn't appear oily, it keeps my skin from feeling tight all day long! I've tested it several times, and even at the office, my skin doesn't feel tight! Previously, I had such dry skin that I needed to reapply cream midday at work. Instead of layering essence, oil, mist, and cream, I think I'll rely solely on this product from next autumn and winter. I'm amazed at how it keeps my skin stable and hydrated for so long - I've never experienced anything like it before. What did they put in this?
ConsThe price might be a concern, but considering how effective the product is, it's better to invest in this one item rather than buying multiple less effective products.
TipIf you feel it lacks richness, you could try adding a drop of facial oil. However, given how well it prevents skin tightness, you probably won't need to worry about the lack of oil in its formulation.

Even though I still had some of the Energizing Cream left, I couldn't resist buying this new product. While the Energizing Cream feels rich in nourishment, this balm is bursting with hydration! I thought the balm texture might be difficult to apply, but I was so wrong! Surprisingly, it absorbs beautifully!
ConsWell... the ingredients are gentle, and if I had to pinpoint a downside, it would be the wicked price tag... haha. But apart from that, I love everything about it. I'd definitely repurchase!
TipFor those harsh winter winds! They say it's not always best to layer multiple products in your skincare routine. So before makeup, I mix the balm and cream in a 1:1 ratio. This not only combats deep dryness and provides moisture, but also gives a beautiful glow effect!
