It doesn't contain stearic acid, so it's not heavy on the skin, and it includes beneficial ingredients for the skin barrier like panthenol and squalane. YouTuber Director Pi mentioned that for oily skin, fewer moisture-locking ingredients are better to avoid clogging pores, and this cream only has three, which is great.
ConsI bought this to support my skin barrier as my skin condition has improved lately, but unfortunately, it doesn't suit my skin. When I first applied it all over my face, it became slightly red and itchy. I thought it might be a coincidence, so I tested it by applying my usual cream on the left side of my face and this A-True product on the right. Only the right cheek became slightly red and itchy. I purchased it because it doesn't contain stearic acid, which I thought didn't suit my oily skin, and it only has three moisture-locking ingredients, making it less heavy. However, I can't figure out the cause of the reaction. I assumed panthenol would be fine since dipanthenol ointment from the pharmacy works well for dermatitis, but I'm not sure if it's the panthenol or the concentration of moisture-locking ingredients at the beginning of the ingredient list that's causing the issue. It's frustrating not knowing the exact reason.

This soothing cream contains panthenol, squalane, and hyaluronic acid, which are great for hydration and calming the skin. It's white in color and fragrance-free. The absorption is really excellent. After applying, there was almost no stickiness, and it provided great moisture to my skin.
ConsSince I have super sensitive skin, I experienced an allergic reaction about 1-2 minutes after application, which is why I deducted one star. This happened when I applied it directly after cleansing, without using any other products. I had to wash it off immediately. However, my husband had no issues and found it quite suitable for his skin.
TipIt seems like applying an appropriate amount after cleansing should work well.

I'm thrilled! ✓ This cream has incredibly gentle ingredients. I've used other cosmetics that caused rashes on the back of my hands and even left some scars, but this product doesn't sting, burn, or itch when applied to wounds or areas with atopic dermatitis. It seems like it would be extremely useful when the skin is damaged. ✓ The texture is smooth. It's somewhere between a hydrating cream and a rich moisturizer...? It's not thick but spreads easily and smoothly. When you press it into your skin, you can hear a slight squelching sound, but it all absorbs within 3-5 minutes. Afterwards, your skin feels silky (how should I describe it? It's like applying a velvet-finish lip product to your face...) and this feeling lasts. It doesn't feel like you've added an extra layer, yet your skin feels moisturized without any tightness. ✓ It's more like the fresh feeling after applying a hydrating cream rather than a rich moisturizer. ✓ I think even those with oily skin wouldn't have any issues using this. For dry skin, it's fine for wearing under makeup, but for nighttime use or during colder seasons when more moisture is needed, you might want to pair it with an oil or finish with a richer cream for longer-lasting hydration. ✓ There's no noticeable scent. If I really try to detect something, maybe a very faint crayon smell...? But honestly, it's practically unscented. ✓ Not only is the product vegan, but the company also considers environmental impact! They don't just focus on recyclable packaging - even the shipping materials were all paper. I've been browsing Hwahae a lot looking for products, and I've noticed many people are interested in vegan and eco-friendly options these days. I highly recommend this product. It's not just about the quality of the product, but the attention to detail is impeccable.
ConsIf you're looking for a heavy-duty barrier cream (like Phy***gel or La R***e Posay), this isn't it! Look elsewhere. I loved it so much that I used it for several days in a row, but then I broke out in acne and got a rash on the back of my hand. I'm not sure, but I suspect it might be due to the squalane, as it's a common ingredient in other products that give me similar reactions...
