The ingredients are high-quality. They frequently have sales.
ConsWhile it provides ample hydration, it's slightly lacking in richness. Still, I'm satisfied with it.

First off, I loved the simple packaging. When I bought it, it came as a set with the gel cream, effector, and a face mask, allowing me to try various products from the same line. The gel cream comes in a tube, which I appreciated as it lets you dispense just the right amount cleanly. The scent is almost fragrance-free, which is great for avoiding irritation. It applies cool and light, perfect for summer use. It absorbs quickly, leaving no sticky residue, which I really liked. While lightweight, it still provides a nice boost of hydration. The gentle ingredients don't irritate my skin, which is another plus. Overall, it's a nice, light gel cream that's great for summer use.
ConsBeing a gel cream, it might be a bit lacking in richness for some. Also, the amount is a little on the small side, so it runs out quite quickly, which is slightly disappointing.
TipThis gel cream feels wonderfully cooling when your skin is feeling hot. If you find it's not rich enough, you can always layer it with a more emollient cream for added moisture.

The best thing about this cream is how gentle and lightweight it is! In summer, heavier products can feel too much, but this one applies so nicely and feels light on the skin. Plus, I didn't experience any blemishes at all!
ConsI bought this hoping for a soothing effect, but unfortunately it didn't calm my skin. Strangely, even though it feels really lightweight, my face actually became oilier faster after applying it. The cream itself doesn't seem greasy and feels quite hydrating, but once it's on my face, it made my skin produce more oil.

If you have super sensitive skin, you'll probably appreciate how gentle and non-irritating it is!
ConsThe hydration doesn't seem to last very long. On my skin, it feels quite rich and leaves a bit of residue.

As the weather got warmer, my usual cream started feeling too heavy. Remembering how well it worked last summer, I repurchased it. It's perfect for use right now. It's very hydrating and leaves my skin feeling firm. When I press my finger on my skin, there's a tiny bit of stickiness.
ConsThe slight stickiness in the finish and the initial oily feeling after application are a bit disappointing. Some might describe it as giving a glow, but to me it feels more like oiliness, which is a bit of a letdown.
TipThis might be just right for those with dry skin.

However, I wouldn't recommend it for those with dry skin.
ConsThere's nothing particularly disappointing about it. It's a hydration-focused cream, so it's best suited for those who don't want added oils.

ConsFor a soothing gel, it feels more rich than hydrating. It seems moisturizing when applying, but afterwards there's a lingering oily sensation. Most importantly, it might not suit me as my skin started to tingle and gradually turn red. I also tried samples of the jelly pads and cream from the same line, and they caused tingling too. I wonder if this entire line just doesn't work for me... I had high hopes, so it's disappointing.

Rapid absorption It absorbs instantly upon application and has a cooling effect. This product truly lives up to its name as a soothing gel. Unlike typical soothing gels that often leave a tight feeling after absorption, this one doesn't at all. 2. User-friendly application As someone who doesn't have special techniques for layering skincare, I found this extremely convenient. It absorbs immediately and provides excellent cooling, so even if you skip toner or essence, it still refines skin texture and reduces redness. 3. Great compatibility with foundation (see attached photo) There's absolutely no pilling or clumping when applying foundation right after absorption. I usually prefer a thin skin-like finish, so I use foundations with good adherence and thin texture. Most moisturizers tend to cause clumping or sliding, so I typically only use emulsion and sunscreen. However, this one absorbs quickly, making it perfect for makeup application. 4. Value for money Products containing panthenol are often expensive, but this one is reasonably priced.
Cons1. Volume 2. Minimal wrinkle improvement 3. Low oil content It absorbs quickly, requiring a larger amount per use, but the volume feels somewhat small. As it's a hydrating gel, it's difficult to expect whitening or anti-aging effects beyond hydration and cooling. It seems more suitable for those in their early to mid-20s looking for flawless makeup application, rather than someone in their late 20s like me. The low oil content is both an advantage and disadvantage. Since my late 20s, I've had fewer acne concerns and less oily skin, so I prefer hydrating products with more oil content, but this one lacks in that aspect.
Tip♥ Recommended for early to mid-20s with oily skin ♥ ♥♥♥♥♥ Perfect for touch-ups ♥♥♥♥♥ Scoop some into a case and when your makeup starts to look patchy or break down, wipe it off with a cotton pad and apply this product. It quickly cools sensitive skin and redness caused by makeup, absorbs instantly, and restores your skin to its freshly made-up state.

I have sensitive dry skin and tend to get a lot of small blemishes! *Texture True to its name, it's a soothing gel texture! It doesn't feel rich and gives a sensation of just filling the skin with hydration. It's great for those who dislike products that feel oily. It absorbs well after application and leaves a plump finish without any stickiness. There's no pilling either, so I had no issues applying makeup over it! *Calming effect During the time I used this product, I traveled and even had some drinks... I didn't take great care of my skin, but considering that, fewer blemishes appeared than expected, so it seems to have quite a good calming effect. It's not dramatic, but it's good for everyday use. This was my first time using a product with licorice extract, and I didn't have any allergic reactions, so that was good~ *Size The size isn't particularly large, but I actually liked this aspect. I don't often use samples, preferring to carry the full-size product, and this one has a convenient size and shape that's light and easy to carry around. *Price I was surprised by the price after reading the product description. It's great value for money! I'm willing to repurchase and even consider buying a larger size version~
ConsIt's not particularly hydrating, so I've been applying multiple layers. Although there's no pilling or separation even with layering (probably due to its lack of oiliness), I wish it provided more hydration. It works fine when used with other products though~

Please keep in mind that I tested this product during a dry autumn when the humidity was as low as 35%. 1. Gentle and Hydrating The ingredients are undoubtedly gentle and excellent, as you can see. Thanks to this, my super sensitive cheekbone area didn't react at all! True to its name as a soothing gel cream, it's perfect for calming and hydrating the skin. After being out in the scorching sun, my cheekbones were stinging, but after applying this throughout the day, I could sleep comfortably the next evening without any burning or tingling sensation. 2. Bouncy Texture The texture is slightly bouncier than Dr.G's soothing cream or Dive In soothing cream. Of course, it melts smoothly when applied to the skin. Please refer to the photos for the texture. 3. Matte Finish Being extremely dry-skinned, on dry days I layer my moisturizers - using this type of soothing gel cream followed by a richer, more emollient cream. Among all the soothing gel creams I've used, this one has the best finish! It absorbs quickly, and after absorption, the finish isn't sticky but feels soft and matte, so applying the next moisturizer doesn't feel heavy at all. While I layered it, I think those with oily or combination dehydrated skin would be really satisfied with just this product. When I tested it on my husband's oily skin, he loved how quickly it made his skin feel matte.
ConsI wouldn't recommend using this product alone if you have dry or extremely dry skin like mine. Although it's packed with hydration, it's low on oil content, so you might feel your skin tightening after a few hours.
TipHighly recommended for those who want to layer moisturizers like me! The finish is really great. For the same reason, it's also highly recommended for those with oily skin as a base before makeup!
