In 30 minutes to 1 hour, the skin becomes completely comfortable and the redness subsides. 💭The ingredients are so good! It contains well-known skin recovery ingredients like madecassoside and panthenol. 💭It's available at Olive Young, so it's easy to purchase both online and offline. 💭The brand website often has discounts. I think I've found my holy grail product. I've tried all kinds of lotions and creams, but none have given me this kind of feeling. The Cica Barrier Extreme instantly improves my skin barrier and keeps other skincare products from disappearing. I've used it religiously, but I never really thought it was that moisturizing. In fact, it felt more like spreading a pat of butter, so if I don't have a solid skincare routine, my face still gets dehydrated and flushed. I've tried all the famous hydrating ampoules and moisturizers, but nothing has ever felt truly perfect. This is it for me. Dehydration? Gone. Redness and heat from dryness? Bye bye. Even after just cleansing my face and applying this, my skin stays hydrated for 3 hours. Before, I'd have to layer on essence, ampoule, and cream to combat the dryness. I really hope this works for me even in the winter. 🥳
ConsThe box I bought and the actual product both did not have the silver unopened seal attached... While I felt a bit uneasy that it seemed like someone had returned a used item, I completely forgot about it after using the product. Please don't discontinue it, and don't relaunch it! Please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

For sure, there's no tightness when using it in the winter! I have to turn the heater on a lot at work, so my face gets really dry, but I just apply this in the morning and go, and there's no tightness at all. The scent is unscented! It seems perfect for using in the winter.
ConsThe spreadability was a bit difficult for me. I should say that it doesn't spread well. You'll need to pat it in to help it absorb. It's definitely not a cream that you can just slap on. There is a slight whitening effect, but this goes away over time and isn't a major concern.
TipApply a thin layer in small amounts and add another layer on top. It may smear if you apply it before makeup. I recommend applying a generous amount in the evening before going to bed.

However, I didn't realize it at the time, but when I started using this product again just in case, it was perfect for my skin. It calms my skin and I've been using it consistently for several years now, morning and night, regardless of the season. I know some people dislike the formula, but as I have dry skin, I use it around the clock.
ConsSome people may experience a sense of whitening and slipperiness in the formulation.
TipWhen you need to calm down at night or have an appointment the next day, apply it a couple of times with about a 10-minute interval and then go to sleep. The next day, your skin will be more supple and smooth.

When applied, it feels a bit heavy and thick. However, it absorbs quickly and adheres well to the skin. It penetrates the skin excellently without any irritation, allowing for a smooth application. On days when the skin is irritated, using this cream immediately soothes the skin. It particularly calms reddened and dry areas, leaving the skin very soft and moisturized the next day. Thanks to the B5 ingredient, the cream is great for soothing and regenerating the skin. As it is free of artificial fragrances and dyes, it can be used safely even on sensitive skin.
ConsThe product may feel slightly thick and heavy. It may feel somewhat heavy during the summer season.

While using it, my skin felt less itchy, and it had a moderate oiliness, so my skin did not feel tight when I woke up.
ConsThe texture is heavy and has an unpleasant odor. It is closer to a thick cream rather than a balm, but the spreadability is not as good as a typical cream. Additionally, I believe it has quite a lot of oiliness.
TipI applied it mixed with a niacinamide serum, and I felt that the recovery speed was accelerating as the acne was gradually improving.

It applies slightly heavily but is a non-sticky regenerating cream. I highly recommend it for dry skin types. It's good to apply it before bed at night. The moisturizing effect lasts long, which is nice. After applying, your skin will have a radiant glow.
ConsThe ingredients are not recommended. The fragrance is not particularly good, so there may be mixed opinions.

It seems to work especially well for dry skin types. When the skin barrier is compromised, applying this is just so, so good. Since I have combination skin, my cheeks get really dry, but when I apply this and sleep with it, my skin becomes incredibly soft.
ConsThe texture is smooth, but it may feel greasy for those with oily skin. However, for those with dry skin, they can tolerate the greasiness by applying it at night and waking up with a nourished, moisturized feeling the next day.

This is one of those few for me😻 There are many downsides, but after using this, my troubles have noticeably decreased, and it feels like my skin barrier has become very strong and resilient. Using this, my skin dryness has also been greatly improved. This is truly... the best cream.. For me, who suffered quite a bit of stress from adult acne, this has been a truly grateful product!! I plan to continue using it in the future 🙇🏻♀️
ConsThe texture is incredibly thick and oily. The oiliness lingers on the skin surface, and when you lie down, your hair sticks to your face, which is annoying. There is a slight inconvenience of having to wash your hands to remove the oiliness left on them after using the cream. I would not recommend this for those with oily skin. My oily-skinned friend said she experienced breakouts after using the cream. The application has improved, but I'm still not sure. It's difficult to apply as the cream doesn't spread well and requires multiple rubs to cover the skin. While I'm still using the pre-renewal cream I had stocked up on, the sample I tried showed that the cap shape has changed, making it harder to grab and open the lid at once, making it less convenient to use. The price is higher than other creams, but I feel it's worth it, so I plan to repurchase it after using this one. Despite these drawbacks, the effects are the best, making it worth using.
