  Pros

  스패츌러가 포함되어있어서 위생적으로 사용 가능했어요 제형은 촉촉한 수분 크림에 작은 알갱이가 들어있어요 알갱이가 피부에 바르면 녹아들면서 흡수돼요 무겁지 않고 가벼운 젤크림 제형이라 지성 피부에 딱이에요. 바르자마자 시원한 쿨링감이 올라와서 열감 진정에 효과적이었고, 진정 성분인 어성초랑 병풀 성분이 들어 있어서 좁쌀 여드름 올라올 때도 자극 없이 바를 수 있었어요. 저는 특히 면도 후나 마스크 착용으로 피부가 예민해졌을 때 사용했는데, 확실히 붉은기가 빠르게 가라앉더라고요. 전체적으로 민감성 피부도 안심하고 쓸 수 있는 진정 보습 크림이에요

  Cons

  🧊 아쉬운 점 작은 알갱이들이 진정 크림임에도 오히려 자극처럼 느껴질 수도 있어요. 특히 눈가 근처나 트러블이 터진 부위에는 약간 따갑게 느껴졌어요. 또, 수분감은 풍부한데 오일리함이 거의 없어서 속건조가 심한 분들에겐 단독으로 쓰기 부족할 수 있어요. 저는 가벼운 사용감을 좋아하지만, 피부가 유독 건조한 날에는 한 번 더 덧발라야 했어요.

  Tip

  🌿 나만의 꿀팁 이 제품은 냉장고에 넣어두고 사용하면 쿨링 효과가 배가돼요! 여름철에는 햇빛 받은 후나 운동 후 열 오른 얼굴에 팩처럼 도톰하게 얹어두고 10분 후 닦아내면, 진정팩처럼 활용할 수 있어서 좋아요. 그리고 여드름 부위에 국소적으로 얇게 레이어링하면 트러블이 빠르게 가라앉는 느낌이에요. 무거운 크림이 부담스러운 지성 피부에게는 여름철 수분크림 대용으로 아주 딱이에요.

  Pros

  I have sensitive combination dehydrated skin! This cream has a gel texture with small particles. Since I don't like irritation, I melt it in my hands before applying. It's not heavy and doesn't feel suffocating, making it perfect for summer use! Even for combination dehydrated skin, there was no dryness! It provides enough hydration that my makeup doesn't look patchy afterwards, which I'm really satisfied with!

  Cons

  There wasn't anything particularly disappointing! Just that it might not have enough hydration and richness for use through winter, so it could be difficult for those with very dry skin to use.

  Tip

  During the day, I melt the particles in my hands before using it to avoid irritation. At night, I apply it thickly directly on my face as a mask!

  Pros

  Skin type: Combination dehydrated, severe deep dryness in winter with oily T-zone Texture: Not a cream, but a gel. Not runny, yet not thick. Contains tiny granules. Scent: Almost fragrance-free! Application: Excellent spreadability due to its non-thick gel texture. You can apply it like a toner, just rubbing it in. However, make sure to massage it until the micro-granules dissolve for better absorption. Absorption: Absorbs well with minimal residue. Great for oily skin types, not recommended for dry skin. Hydration and moisturizing: Disappointing... Unless you layer it twice after applying ampoule and toner, it feels dry. The moisturizing power is quite lacking with just one application. This might be due to my combination dehydrated skin, but it's highly recommended for oily skin types. Consider it as a completely oil-free moisturizer. Personally, I think it would be great for summer use. Effectiveness: I tried it because it was advertised to improve blemishes, but I'm not sure about the improvement... However, the good thing is that despite having super sensitive skin, I haven't experienced any additional breakouts, which is incredibly thankful. The ingredients seem to be genuinely gentle.

  Cons

  While the hydration longevity and moisturizing power are quite weak, I accept it considering its oil-free nature.

  Tip

  This product contains many granules. Make sure to massage it in multiple times until absorbed, rather than just patting it on!

  Pros

  As someone with extremely dry skin, this product was fantastic for summer use. I'm particularly sensitive to heat, especially when applying makeup in the morning when it's hot and I'm sweaty. Using this cream during my skincare routine, I noticed there was absolutely no stickiness, and after application, I felt a gradual cooling effect that helped calm my skin. It's incredibly hydrating, preventing any tightness or flaking around the mouth after makeup application. Even if I accidentally use too much, there's no pilling, making it perfect for pre-makeup use in the morning. I think it would work well for oily, combination dehydrated, and dry skin types alike.

  Cons

  For those of us with extremely dry skin, it might be slightly disappointing to use as an overnight sleeping pack. The lack of rich texture might not be enough for those with severely dry skin who need both hydration and moisture, especially as an evening cream.

  Tip

  Those with blemish-prone skin found that mixing this product with Centella powder created a great combination that works hard for their skin.

  Pros

  +. Ingredients Clean formulation with no concerning components. +. Hydration Excellent moisture retention, living up to its concept of hydration and soothing. If applied generously, you can skip the hydrating ampoule step. +. Soothing For my skin that generally tolerates Houttuynia Cordata, the redness and irritation on blemish-prone areas after cleansing visibly subsided within 5 minutes of applying this product. +. Large-size packaging Satisfyingly generous 100ml size for a gel cream, which typically requires more product per use than oil-based creams. Sufficient quantity to last an entire season. +. Value for money Online searches show prices as low as just over 10,000 won per 100ml. Excellent value for a hydrating gel cream.

  Cons

  -. Oil content As a gel cream focused on hydration, it has low oil content. Those with dry skin may need to apply an additional oil-based product on top. -. Double plastic packaging The double plastic packaging cannot be separated in regular households, making it non-recyclable. It's disappointing that many Korean creams insist on this type of packaging (for design or over-packaging purposes). While this product also uses double plastic packaging, which is regrettable, the container size is honest and not excessively large for its volume compared to other cream jars.

  Pros

  - Skin type: Sensitive, blemish-prone, combination dehydrated skin > When using unsuitable products, I tend to develop many pustular acne. My skin doesn't react well to tea tree-based products. - Usage frequency: Used 1-2 times daily for about 2 weeks since delivery, in conjunction with my regular skincare products - Product order: Toner pad or Dalba mist - This product or Baek-A-Yul Balancing Cream Lightweight texture and feel. True to its nature as a hydrating cream, it has a light texture and feels moisturizing. Even when applied generously, it doesn't feel heavy or greasy. Pleasant cooling effect. It contains tiny capsule-like particles that burst upon application, providing a cooling sensation. Doesn't cause blemishes. As someone with blemish-prone skin, I'm always anxious when changing skincare products, but I didn't notice any new blemishes specifically caused by this product during use.

  Cons

  Lacks richness. Being a hydrating cream, it's understandable, but it may not provide enough richness for those with dry skin types. Dry-skinned individuals might need to add other skincare steps or products. It should be suitable for those with oily skin.

  Tip

  Recommended for combination dehydrated or oily skin types. For those with dry skin, I suggest using it alongside other hydrating products. It seems like an excellent cream for the height of summer, and I'm considering purchasing it with my own money once I finish this one.

  Pros

  - This cream is packed with pure hydration. It has a gel-like texture without any stickiness, and contains tiny beads that disappear when applied. - The size is incredibly generous. It's perfect as a substitute for gel when using beauty devices. - It feels refreshingly cool on the skin, thanks to its cooling effect. However, this sensation doesn't last too long.

  Cons

  While it's full of hydration, there's absolutely no oiliness to it. You need to apply a solid skincare base before using this as a final step. No matter how much you slather on, the lack of oil can make your skin feel dry.

  Tip

  It might work well if you add a few drops of facial oil. There's a subtle herbal scent, and overall it's gentle and decent. As for repurchasing... I'd only consider it when it's on sale.
