MelaCare Intensive Cream

Leaves a Sticky Residue

Pleasant Scent

Doesn't Set Well

Not Rich

Lightweight

Easily Absorbed

Doesn't Leave Residue

Easy to Apply

I found it a bit sticky after application. Other than that, I have no complaints.

What I noticed while using this is that it helps balance oil and moisture, and also aids in calming the skin. (I'll need to use it a bit longer to see if it lightens dark spots and blemishes.) I thought it might feel heavy since it's a functional product, but it's not heavy at all - it's as light as a hydrating moisturizer. It absorbs smoothly and easily, and I didn't experience any blemishes after use. It seems like a necessary product for preventing dark spots and blemishes. While it might be unrealistic to completely eliminate them, preventing new ones from appearing is probably the best approach.

멜라케어 인텐시브 크림

Apply in this order: toner > this product > moisturizer. Make sure to finish with a moisturizer, it's essential!

I bought this because it's called 'Mela-Care', hoping it might help with freckles and dark spots. But personally, I think these functional cosmetics are more about preventing pigmentation rather than actually fading or removing existing dark spots. For that, you might need to visit a dermatologist.

I don't usually write reviews, but this has become my favorite skincare product lately, so I'll share my honest thoughts. My skin tends to react badly to unsuitable basic products, often making it worse than if I hadn't applied anything at all, so I'm always cautious when trying new things. Especially with functional products (for blemishes, anti-aging, etc.), most of them felt irritating on my skin and never seemed gentle. But this product is incredibly mild and simply amazing! Above all, I really dislike sticky textures and prefer lightweight skincare with minimal ingredients, but this one is super hydrating and absorbs quickly. After it sinks in, my skin feels incredibly soft, smooth, and firm. When I use this before bed, my skin becomes so soft that I can't stop touching it. I heard it's a cream used in dermatology clinics, which might explain why it's so good. Seriously, I've never seen a texture like this before - it feels like water when you apply it, but it's just fantastic. I initially bought it because I liked the texture and scent during testing, and the fragrance is indeed pleasant. However, if you prefer unscented products, keep in mind that this one does have a noticeable scent.

I can't really tell if it's lightening my dark spots or blemishes. Apart from that, I didn't notice anything particularly noteworthy.

I tried this as a dark spot cream, and well... I'm not sure about its effectiveness, but I absolutely love the scent! It felt even more hydrating than the orange cream.

It's a steal when it's on a buy-one-get-one-free offer!

The dispenser hole is too large, so a lot of product comes out. While it's generous enough to apply to my neck as well...

I'm using this alongside a brightening essence, and it seems to be helping fade my dark spots. If I continue to see results, I'll definitely repurchase.

There's nothing I particularly dislike about it! I came here to repurchase and ended up writing this review!

Known for its brightening properties, this product seems less irritating than others! It's not greasy, so even with my oily skin, I could use it in summer! I'm still diligently applying it in winter, and while I feel I might need to pay a bit more attention to hydration now, my skin doesn't feel excessively dry even without extra moisture. I love that it comes in a tube - it's much cleaner to use than products you have to scoop out of a jar!

It was a bit too drying for winter use, but I found it worked well during the summer months.

The scent and texture are absolutely delightful. When applied, you can feel your skin becoming silky smooth. With consistent use, I even noticed a brightening effect.

Since I'm also using a PDRN regenerating cream, I don't apply this all over. In the evening, I put on the regenerating cream first, then apply this only to areas with dark spots. I give it another light application just before bed.

While the container material is good, the opening is too wide, causing too much product to come out at once.

After using it for about a month, I feel like my dark spots have lightened. I apply it only to specific areas, but it's fine to use it all over the face too.

I use this along with a brightening serum in the evening.

The price compared to the amount is a bit disappointing. Also, the hydration is slightly, just slightly, lacking. Though that might be because I have dry skin.

It absorbs well and has great absorption power. When choosing a cream, I consider the packaging just as important as the ingredients, so I'm really happy this comes in a tube! As I entered my 30s and started noticing a few dark spots here and there, I realized it was time to start taking care of my skin. I bought this in a bit of a rush, and though I initially worried it might have been an impulse purchase, I'm quite satisfied with it. As for its effectiveness in improving dark spots, I think I'll need to finish the whole tube to really tell. But since it's said to also prevent new spots from forming, I think it's not a bad idea to use it as a preventive measure.

If I had to point out one thing, it would be that the cream's opening is quite large, so if you're not careful, you might squeeze out too much. But that's hardly a drawback - overall, I'm using this product with great satisfaction.

Despite being a cream, it has a surprisingly light texture that spreads easily like an emulsion. It absorbs incredibly fast, leaving the skin feeling fresh yet hydrated, which I love. Even in this hot weather, it doesn't feel heavy, making it suitable for all skin types without any burden. The subtle floral scent is absolutely delightful. While many brightening products are typically used at night, I appreciate that this one can be applied both morning and evening. It's a functional product for brightening and wrinkle improvement, offering step-by-step care for blemishes. Of course, being a cosmetic and not a medication, the effects aren't dramatically noticeable in a short time. However, I believe it's good for preventing blemishes, so I plan to use it consistently. I feel like my existing blemishes have slightly faded, though it might be my imagination, which encourages me to continue using it. All in all, I'm satisfied with this product as it allows for daily, gentle care for blemishes without drying out my skin.

Due to its very fast absorption and light texture, it might not be suitable for those with dry skin during drier seasons unless sufficient hydration is provided beforehand. The opening of the tube is a bit large, so you need to be careful when controlling the amount.

A lightweight cream that surprisingly maintains long-lasting hydration without causing tightness. The non-drying effect brightens my complexion. 

Skin condition: Despite having dry skin that feels tight even in summer, I had been using intense hydration methods before trying the Zenabell Melacare Intensive Cream. My cheeks were extremely dry, so I was using sheet masks every other day and applying toner-type serum generously on cotton pads for 2-3 minutes daily to replenish moisture before my skincare routine.

Usage conditions: To evaluate the brightening effects, I replaced all my existing whitening products except for my first serum. My routine became: whitening toner-type first serum - hydration-focused ampoule - Zenabell Melacare Intensive Cream.

Review after use:
1. The tube packaging is very convenient, and I'm satisfied with the texture - it's lightweight and non-sticky, absorbing quickly. It's perfect for summer use. Despite its incredibly light texture and fast absorption, I was pleasantly surprised that I didn't feel significant dryness, even with a simplified skincare routine.

2. Brightening effect - After consistent use for about 2 weeks, while I'm not sure about blemish improvement yet, I noticed an overall brightening effect, likely due to sufficient hydration. My complexion looks clearer, making blemishes less noticeable even if they haven't faded.

3. Overall impression - This cream reinforced that hydration is key for brightening. Unlike some hydrating products that can feel sticky or damp, the Zenabell Melacare Intensive Cream is incredibly lightweight while maintaining excellent moisture retention, making me consider repurchasing. It's particularly hard to find such a good hydrating cream for summer. With its quick absorption and good moisturizing properties, I think it will keep my skin fresh and hydrated even in sweaty summer weather.
