Camellia Barrier Core Cream

Not Effective for Wrinkle Reduction

Lightweight

Doesn't Increase Elasticity

Irritates Eyes

Oily

No Brightening Effect

Easily Absorbed

No Pilling

Easy to Apply

Not Sticky

Pleasant Scent

Bouncy Texture

Hydrating

The only downside is the small size. I wish I could order a larger volume.

The texture is just right - not too thin or thick. It absorbs quickly into the skin when applied. After absorption, it doesn't feel sticky but leaves a firm, glowing finish that visibly improves skin texture. Best of all, it works well under makeup without pilling or feeling heavy. It's also excellent for improving blemishes.

The only slight disappointment is the lack of a spatula. Other than that, I have no complaints.

Packaging: First off, the luxurious and beautiful packaging instantly lifted my spirits. Skin Type: As someone with combination dehydrated skin, I absolutely can't stand sticky products! When I first applied it, I was pleasantly surprised by how lightweight it felt. While it does become slightly oily over time, it's not sticky or suffocating. It might be a bit much for summer, but it's perfect for this time of year and winter. Scent: I expected a floral fragrance, but it has a subtle, baby-like scent. I appreciate that the fragrance isn't overpowering.

There wasn't really anything disappointing, but as with any cream, if you apply too much, it doesn't absorb as well.
This cream has great moisturizing power, so it does take a bit longer to fully absorb if you use too much. You need to apply it in very thin layers to get good absorption.
Even just a tiny bit more than that thin layer can make it take a while to fully absorb.
So I think it's important to be very careful with the amount you use, especially before applying makeup.
Other than that, there weren't any downsides!

This cream has far more positive points than negatives! Even though it was a brand I had never heard of before, using it firsthand made me wonder why I was ever worried in the first place - it was just that good!
The most satisfying aspects were the smooth application and the finish.
Smooth application and a nice finish are the most important factors for me when applying a cream, and this cream excelled in both areas. The application was as smooth as lotion, and the finish was not at all sticky, but rather felt refreshing.
The refreshing finish doesn't mean it lacks in moisturizing power, though. I was very satisfied with the moisturizing performance as well! So I think this is a cream that can work well for both oily and dry skin types.
This cream seems suitable for use during seasonal changes and in the winter, and those with dry skin may even be able to use it in the spring and early summer.
I also felt like the ingredients in this cream agreed with my skin - my face didn't break out at all, and it even had a soothing effect.
There were no irritations or even the tiniest blemishes! I was very satisfied with this aspect as well.

I don't have any particular complaints. If I had to nitpick, I'd say the price is a bit steep!

The ingredients are fantastic! It's packed with anti-aging components, and I love that it doesn't contain stearic acid, which usually causes my blemishes. Thanks to the great formulation, I didn't experience any breakouts while using it.

Even with my sensitive skin, it worked wonders! I have seborrheic dermatitis, but this cream was gentle on my red, itchy, and tingling skin. The camellia extract, ceramides, and panthenol help care for the skin barrier without aggravating my skin condition.

The anti-aging benefits are a big plus. While I can't speak to its effectiveness yet, I'm excited to keep using it. With eight types of peptides, I have high hopes for its wrinkle-reducing potential.

It provides excellent hydration and nourishment. Perfect for the dry season! As someone with combination dehydrated skin, it suits me well. It transforms dryness into moisture naturally. Unlike some creams that feel oily on the surface but dry underneath, this one balances both the outer and inner layers of the skin. It moisturizes effectively, and when I apply makeup over it in the morning, there's no pilling or caking. My makeup goes on smoothly!

It contains oil, so there's a slight shine after application!
Given the price point, I'll have to think twice about repurchasing...

As I'm approaching my mid-20s, I've noticed my pores widening and skin losing elasticity, so I decided to try this product. I was impressed by the elegant postcard that came with it, and I love that the product container is made of glass.

For a core cream, it doesn't feel heavy when applied! It feels like applying a regular moisturizer. After it absorbs, you can feel your skin plumping up and becoming more firm.

✔️The texture is great - it glides on smoothly.
✔️It's fragrance-free!

The squeaky sound when twisting the lid is a bit disappointing. The design is pretty, though!

A rich yet non-sticky texture! This cream absorbs moisture like a dream.

I was surprised by how much thicker it is compared to other oil-rich creams. Yet it has a gel-like feel, so it's not heavy and absorbs quickly.

They claim it helps improve wrinkles, firmness, and brightening in just 4 weeks. The jar is generously filled, so you can apply it liberally and still have enough for well over a month. Great value for the amount you get!

Though it's not specifically marketed for blemishes, it's gentle and even helps soothe skin troubles. You don't often find products that nourish and strengthen the skin so effectively!

I'm usually sneezing non-stop during my skincare routine due to fragrances, but this product is thoughtfully unscented.

I plan to repurchase this until I find another cream that's just as good.

This review is based on using only this product for a week. If you have oily skin, this should be sufficient on its own, except perhaps in the dead of winter.

The only downside might be the price, which is a bit on the higher side. Other than that, everything was great.

I was extremely satisfied with this product. Usually, purified water is the main ingredient, but here, camellia flower extract is the primary component, which really lives up to the product's name. I loved that it even has anti-aging properties. Plus, it contains panthenol and ceramide NP for skin barrier protection and soothing effects. That's probably why it's called the Barrier Core Cream. I expected the texture to be thick, but it's actually a soft, fluffy consistency that applies smoothly. It absorbs instantly into the skin, which I found very satisfying. While those with dry skin might find it a bit light, it should work well if you layer it with a hydrating serum. I was worried the scent might be strong, but it's actually fragrance-free. I think this cream is suitable for sensitive, oily, and combination skin types. After using this cream, I'm tempted to try the essence from the same line. Overall, the ingredients and absorbs well were excellent.

You can apply it generously both morning and night without it feeling heavy on your skin. I personally use it with retinol oil in the evening, and I feel it makes my skin even more supple.

Well... its lightweight formula and how easily it absorbs make me want to use it generously. The only downside is that the price isn't exactly budget-friendly.

I was thrilled to participate as one of The Hwahae Testers and used the product for about 9 days after delivery.

I was initially worried that since it's a cream, it might feel heavy and greasy. However, despite its rich texture, it wasn't heavy at all - instead, it felt soft and hydrating.

My skin is extremely dry, but I usually avoid products with high oil content as they tend to make my skin greasy and cause blemishes.

This cream, however, absorbs well into the skin without any stickiness. Its lightweight texture made it feel more like a hydrating moisturizer rather than a heavy nourishing cream.

Moreover, it absorbs so well that there's no pilling or lifting, making it comfortable to wear without feeling heavy.

As someone who doesn't particularly enjoy fragranced products, I appreciated that the scent was so subtle it was barely noticeable, making it pleasant to use.

After applying the Miroderm cream, I lightly layered on some popo cream. If you find the cream alone isn't hydrating enough, you might want to try adding a hydrating moisturizer or facial oil like I did.

The hydration level was a bit disappointing. Given the season, I was hoping for more moisture. After application, there was a slight tightness as time passed. I felt it lacked the deep hydration I was looking for, which was quite disappointing. I had to supplement with additional moisturizer or facial oil. I have combination dehydrated skin, but it didn't cause any major blemishes. The price is a bit high for the quantity provided. It would be nice if they offered a larger size option.

Absorbs well and applies smoothly. It's not too rich for a cream, feels light and fresh, making it perfect for spring and summer use. It's likely to suit those with oily skin types well, though it might be a bit dry for those with dry skin. The quantity is standard for a cream-type product. The most impressive aspect was the noticeable improvement in skin texture! Initially, I wasn't blown away, but after a couple of days, I noticed my skin texture had significantly improved. My slightly red and bumpy skin calmed down, redness reduced, and my skin became smooth and even. To confirm its effectiveness, I deliberately reduced the use of other products and focused on this one, and the results were clear. Plus, it brightened my complexion! My skin looked much clearer and more even-toned.

This ultra-lightweight cream is ideal for daytime use rather than as a night cream.

While it's lightweight, I haven't noticed any blemishes yet. However, I haven't used it long-term, so I'll need more time to evaluate. The advertised skin barrier strengthening effects aren't noticeable yet. There's only a subtle change in skin texture when applied before bed. Personally, I wish it was a bit richer since it's marketed as a cream. It can sting a bit when applied around the eyes.

This cream absorbs incredibly fast when applied. It quickly leaves your skin feeling soft and smooth without being drying. If you've avoided creams because they feel heavy, you might love this one. It's not too runny, but has a nice, rich texture. The fragrance-free formula is perfect for those who are tired of or dislike scented skincare products.

I highly recommend this for anyone who needs a cream but dislikes excess oil!

Since I haven't used it for a full month yet, I can't fully comment on its effectiveness. The product claims to improve wrinkles, elasticity, lifting, and brightening after 4 weeks of use, but I can't confirm that just yet. However, I do feel like my skin looks smoother and my fine lines seem less noticeable.

I'm thrilled to be writing a review as part of The Hwahae Testers! This cream couldn't have come at a better time, with the dry winter season upon us. The product packaging is absolutely gorgeous and exudes luxury.

Absorbs like a dream 💯
I was initially worried that being a cream, it might be too heavy and uncomfortable. But even with my dry skin, which usually makes me wary of thick creams, this one is a pleasure to apply generously!

Absorption rate 💯
My skin just drinks it up! It's like an oasis for my desert-like complexion. I can feel my skin becoming more firm and resilient.
