Packaging and Presentation Wow, I've never been this satisfied with packaging before! It arrived so beautifully, and the package itself is incredibly luxurious. The product looks high-end, and there's even a personalized letter with my name... Am I receiving an award or something? I really appreciated how the manufacturer's attention to detail was evident in every aspect of the product. 2. Product Texture I absolutely despise sticky and oily products, so I was really excited when the description mentioned it was a fresh and hydrating formula. The luxurious packaging did raise my expectations a bit, but it turned out to be even more refreshing than I anticipated. It moisturizes well without any stickiness, making me feel like I've found my holy grail. 3. Longevity In summer, I tend to get a bit oily, but if I lack hydration, my skin can also flake. It's quite complicated - my T-zone gets oily while the area around my mouth gets dry and chapped. However, when using this product, it's hydrating and fresh without making my T-zone particularly oily. Even after being out for almost 10 hours, the product's effects last, and it seems to suit my skin well as my complexion is gradually improving. 4. Freshness This point is somewhat related to the drawbacks, but it's a bit tricky to control the amount. Surprisingly though, it doesn't feel heavy even if you apply a lot, and it's moisturizing even with a small amount. Many products feel heavy when you apply too much, but this one remains fresh. Even with a small amount, while the longevity might decrease slightly, it still feels sufficiently moisturizing at first.
Cons1. Application While it applies well, it doesn't really stick to your hands. This makes it a bit challenging to control the amount at first. If you dip in too much, you get way too much product, but if you dip in just a little, hardly any comes out. So it's a bit... tricky? 2. Accessories This is an extension of point 1, but because the product is a bit difficult to use, I think it would be nice if it came with a spatula. It might seem like a disposable item, but I'm usually impressed by those little touches. From a design perspective, not including one might look more high-end, but given the product's characteristics, if I had to pick one thing I wish was different, that would be it. Everything else is perfect!
TipI have combination dehydrated skin with an oily T-zone. I haven't been getting any blemishes lately, and I highly recommend this product!

Being a gel cream, it absorbs quickly, making it perfect for morning use! It's fragrance-free, with just a hint of herbal scent, making it ideal for those sensitive to fragrances. What I loved most was its fresh finish and rapid absorption. I used it frequently in the mornings, and it didn't pill or flake under makeup, which was great. It also gave a nice hydrating feel. I applied it as skin-gel cream on my T-zone, and skin-serum-gel cream on my U-zone. For drier areas, I'd recommend using it with a serum or emulsion for moisture without stickiness. Most importantly, as someone with sensitive skin prone to blemishes on my chin, forehead, and cheeks, I didn't experience any breakouts while using this gel cream. It didn't magically clear existing blemishes, but that's why I was even more satisfied. It's gentle yet non-irritating, making it perfect for daily use. Though it was a brand I hadn't heard of before, I'm so glad to have discovered such a great cream and I'll definitely repurchase! I'd recommend this cream for a smooth makeup base and as a non-irritating daily moisturizer!
ConsThe only thing I wish for is that it would also come in a tube format!
TipI applied this gel cream over my toner pads, and the results were amazing. Calming toner pads + gel cream = incredible skin!

Apply a thin layer that absorbs quickly, creating a moisturizing barrier. For those with deep dryness or very dry skin, I recommend thorough basic hydration before application. I love how it feels as it sinks into the skin. The fresh sensation is definitely noticeable, and above all, it's less sticky, making it great for summer use. It's excellent for cooling down facial heat while forming a thorough moisture barrier, which I really appreciate. Absorbs well: 4 Hydration: 3 Moisturizing power: 4
ConsIf you only use toner before applying this, you might experience deep dryness over time. There's also a slight chance of pilling. This is characteristic of gel creams, so it's important to apply a thin layer. While it forms a good moisture barrier, this aspect is a bit disappointing.
TipFor those experiencing facial heat in summer, I recommend using a cooling mask pack and finishing with this product. Not only does it cool down the skin, but it also provides intense hydration. I loved how it kept my skin from feeling dry even in air-conditioned spaces. The effectiveness of this product differs significantly depending on whether you use it with or without a mask pack.

It feels refreshing on the skin.
ConsThere's nothing bad to say. The ingredients are great, and the packaging is nice. It's just a bit of a shame that it doesn't come with a spatula.
TipThe ingredients are excellent, allowing the product to absorb well. If you apply it twice, your skin feels even more hydrated the next day.

(It's a refreshing sensation, not irritating at all - just a cooling effect from the hydration) - As someone with oily skin, I often find summer moisturizers too sticky, but this one feels fresh without any stickiness - It's refreshing yet incredibly hydrating!! - It's fragrance-free, so there's no off-putting scent - I love the simple, minimalist packaging - Overall, it's an extremely satisfying summer moisturizer!
ConsI don't have any complaints! It's perfect for hydration and soothing in the hot summer

Even the slightest irritation can trigger blemishes and heat sensations. I'm practically a human irritation detector! But after using the A.ro Centella Gel Cream for about a week, I didn't experience any irritation at all. The product's texture is translucent with no viscosity. When applied to the skin, it absorbs quickly with a very light and refreshing feel - it's truly a hydrating moisturizer formulation. The overall experience is similar - there's absolutely no rich feeling, it just gives the sensation of filling your skin with hydration. Because the product is so hydrating, it doesn't feel stuffy on the skin. It absorbs without sitting on top, so you don't need to spend time patting it in. Just apply it quickly and you're done! Some creams develop an oily feeling (aka 'dog grease') over time, but the Centella cream doesn't do that at all. It's pleasantly moisturizing, doesn't pill, and isn't irritating. While using this cream, I didn't experience any dramatic 'Wow, my skin has greatly improved!' effects. Instead, it felt like that essential, gentle, hydrating moisturizer we all need in our daily routines. It's not excessive in any way - just a simple, reliable daily cream that you can use anytime without worry. This cream seems very suitable for oily or combination skin types to use during summer. It's light + refreshing + hydrating!
ConsOverall, it doesn't provide long-lasting hydration or solve deep dryness. The hydration seems to evaporate a bit over time, so I think it might be too dry for those with dry skin to use alone. While it's great for summer, in winter you'd probably need to layer a more moisturizing cream on top to prevent dryness.

With minimal oil content and a focus on hydration, it feels lightweight and refreshing to use. Finish: I typically finish my routine with a cream after toner and serum. When used this way, it wasn't overly sticky and left my skin pleasantly moisturized. I think it could work well even in summer without being too heavy! Scent: It felt almost completely fragrance-free. Effects: While I didn't notice significant soothing effects, it seemed to help with my severe deep dryness. I appreciated that it wasn't so light that it evaporated immediately, but struck a perfect balance.
ConsI didn't experience any new blemishes while using it, and overall it felt gentle on my skin.

It feels like a soothing gel? That's why I highly recommend it for combination dehydrated skin types who need a lot of moisture. Fragrance-free: If you prefer unscented products, you can use this with peace of mind. Jelly texture: It has a soft jelly texture that's packed with hydration. It's perfect for summer. What I really loved was that it doesn't have that typical film-like feeling of soothing creams! It applies moistly but finishes with a fresh feel. Plus, it's not irritating, so I didn't experience any eye stinging or tingling.
ConsIt might be a bit disappointing for those with dry skin... While it didn't cause any blemishes or skin reactions, it's slightly lacking for nighttime use.
TipI use it like an emulsion and finish with a thin layer of a slightly richer cream. This creates an Inner Glow and keeps the skin hydrated for longer!
