If I remember correctly, it was fragrance-free. The texture feels thick and rich! However, despite this, the hydration is a bit ambiguous... It definitely goes on thick, but after a while, it feels dry? But not your typical dryness - it's more like there's an odd dry feeling under a protective layer on the surface. At first, I didn't like this, but as I continued using it, I got used to it. The effects were good! I could definitely see my complexion improving.
ConsWhile my skin definitely seemed to improve... that ambiguous dryness I mentioned earlier was really disappointing. Because of this, I hesitated to buy the full-size product and ultimately decided against it.

Texture The consistency is somewhat between a cream and an ointment, with a rich texture. 2. Fragrance It's unscented, so it's likely to suit everyone's preferences. 3. Application It applies with a smooth, powdery feel and absorbs quickly into the skin. 4. Effectiveness It gives a feeling of firmer skin. The oil and moisture balance is excellent, and the smooth, firm feeling lasts for a long time. Despite being somewhat rich, the smooth finish is so good that it should work well for most skin types, except perhaps very oily skin.
ConsApart from being in a slightly higher price range, this is a product I'd like to try again in the future.

That's why it's great for dry skin.
ConsThe only downside is that the price is a bit steep for the amount you get.

There's a subtle ointment-like sensation when applying. You can feel it soothing sensitive skin, and the texture is suitable for all skin types, especially when your skin feels irritated or super sensitive. The formula spreads like a protective layer over the skin, seeming to shield it effectively.
ConsMany fragrance-free cosmetics have this issue, but the smell is really unpleasant. It has an off-putting odor that makes you not want to apply it, almost as if it has gone bad.

The texture also feels a bit like hand cream or ointment - thick yet smooth! When first squeezed out, it's soft, but as you apply it, it immediately becomes rich, then absorbs quickly. Because of its richness, you might think it would be heavy, but it's not really. It's a bit ambiguous in every way. I think this would be great to use in winter.
ConsI had high hopes for this barrier-strengthening cream, but the ingredients aren't particularly impressive and it's far too rich... It seems to cause blemishes, then they appear to subside, only to flare up again. I don't think this agrees with my skin, unfortunately.

It's a fragrance-free cream with gentle ingredients, similar to an ointment. I used it before bed during summer, and it has a perfect balance of richness and hydration that dry skin types will really appreciate. Even if you don't have dry skin, it's an ideal moisturizer for fall and winter, great for use before makeup or at bedtime. The product claims to provide a double layer of moisture both inside and out, and I truly felt my skin looked healthier when I woke up in the morning. With its gentle formulation and lack of fragrance, it's a product that's likely to be universally loved.
ConsFor those with very dry skin, this might not provide enough hydration and nourishment as a moisturizer for fall and winter.

The price is incredibly wallet-friendly for such a beast of a size. Its rich texture seems to strengthen the skin's foundation, helping to maintain hydration well when applied. Plus, it doesn't cause sunscreen to pill.
ConsIt's good only as a final step in skincare, but I don't particularly feel any nourishing effects.
TipIf your makeup or sunscreen is pilling, try switching to a different moisturizer.

If you have oily skin, applying too much might lead to excess oil production. When spread thinly with the right amount, it applies without feeling overly oily. The finish isn't particularly fresh or moisturizing, so I recommend using it as a sleeping cream before bed rather than under makeup. ▶️Effects After application, you can definitely feel a 'skin barrier' forming. Since winter began, my skin became dry and flaky after washing, but after using this cream, that flakiness is noticeably reduced! It definitely helps with dryness and seems to protect the skin from harsh winter weather. As mentioned earlier, when applied thinly with the right amount, it doesn't feel too oily and didn't cause any blemishes due to excess oil. ❗After wearing a certain sweater, I experienced redness and itching on my neck and chest. Applying this cream significantly improved these symptoms. It seems suitable for sensitive areas beyond just the face.
ConsWhen I applied too much without proper control, I woke up the next morning to an oil slick explosion on my face. However, this is a common characteristic of similar creams, so it's not a problem unique to this product. You can overcome this drawback by applying a thin layer with a small amount.
TipApplying with a sponge instead of your hands makes it easier to control the amount and oil level, and helps spread it evenly. This tip applies to all skincare products, but it's especially recommended for thick, creamy textures like this one.

This is THE product you need! As someone with extremely dry skin, even the oiliest creams usually leave my skin feeling parched in no time. On top of that, my sensitive skin is so prone to adult acne. When you need a rich cream for dryness but worry about breakouts, this is perfect! It's gentler than expected, preventing any blemishes or adverse reactions. For such a thick cream, it applies incredibly smoothly. Best of all, it's rich and deeply moisturizing without feeling heavy or causing trouble. Honestly, if you have dry skin like me, you absolutely must try this! The only product I've consistently used before was Aestura's AtoBarrier Cream, but I prefer how this one absorbs. These days, I find myself reaching for this product exclusively. The fact that it's fragrance-free is a bonus!
ConsThe price isn't exactly budget-friendly, but it's definitely worth trying! No real downsides to speak of.
TipDuring the day, I use toner, a light serum, and this cream alone. At night, I mix this product with a 4-in-1 cream in a 2:1 ratio after applying toner and serum. I guarantee you'll wake up with glowing skin!

After applying, my skin gradually felt more congested, and blemishes started appearing in various areas, possibly due to clogged pores. As a result, I've discontinued use for now. -------------------------------- I originally used the Real Barrier Extreme Cream, but after prolonged use, its effectiveness seemed to diminish, and its texture was too rich. While looking for alternatives, I was fortunate to be selected for The Hwahae Testers! This review is based on 8 days of daily use from December 7th evening until today's deadline. <Personal info> ✔ Skin type: Extremely dry (even experiencing deep dryness in summer) + Super sensitive skin prone to constant blemishes ✔ Routine: Beyond Angel Aqua Moisture Cream (as toner) → Dr.G Red Blemish Soothing Cream (for blemish care) → Heavy finishing cream (for moisture retention) ❗This product was used in the final step. <Product review> 💧Oil and moisture balance: I was looking for a finishing cream to seal in the moisture from previous steps rather than a product with high hydration itself, and this product met that expectation well. While it doesn't feel extremely hydrating, it effectively locks in moisture without being too rich! 👋Texture and application: It comes out slightly firm when first squeezed, but surprisingly, it applies smoothly without any stickiness or tackiness. Interestingly, my previous Real Barrier cream was extremely rich and challenging to apply, but this one offers similar effects with a more user-friendly application. 🌼Scent: There's no artificial fragrance at all! It doesn't have any unpleasant raw ingredient smell either, giving a pure and pleasant impression.
Cons❓Skin barrier: To be honest, it seems unrealistic to notice a significant change in skin barrier after just 8 days of use. I'm still experiencing regular blemishes, and my skin develops dead skin cells and deep dryness if I slack on my skincare routine even slightly. I think it would take at least a month of consistent use to truly assess its effect on the skin barrier. ❓Packaging: The packaging resembles a toothpaste or ointment tube, requiring multiple twists to open the cap, which is surprisingly inconvenient. Since it's used in the final step of skincare, your hands are often slippery, and it's preferable to minimize product transfer onto the packaging. A more user-friendly opening mechanism would be appreciated!
TipFor best results, squeeze out an appropriate amount and apply it using circular motions as if you're creating a protective layer on your skin. After spreading it evenly, gently pat to enhance absorption!
