Pros
I have sensitive, troubled skin. The formula is an opaque, runny cream type that feels refreshing when applied. It has excellent spreadability and does not feel heavy.
Cons
As soon as I applied it, the troubled area stung and new blemishes also popped up. I applied it once and then stopped.

Pros
My complexion used to have a lot of acne, especially around the chin area. The acne scars have really diminished a lot. I'm currently applying it consistently, but just making sure it doesn't irritate, and I think I'll continue using it well!!!
Cons
Applying too much can cause a stinging sensation, so you should use the appropriate amount and apply it properly.

Pros
The Doctorgee Soothing Cream has a similar formulation.
Cons
My face turned red on my forehead and cheeks the next day after using it. It seems it doesn't suit me... I'm applying the Leadermax ointment, but it stings a bit. If you have sensitive skin, try using a small amount and test it for a week.

Pros
The product was really effective in soothing and recovering my skin. The retinol ingredient helped with skin regeneration, and the cica ingredient had a calming effect, so my skin condition improved quickly after dealing with skin troubles. The cream spreads smoothly and keeps my skin moisturized for a long time, preventing dryness. In particular, I felt like it strengthened my skin barrier, and my skin gradually became smoother and more supple without any irritation.
Cons
Retinol products can cause a slight stinging or irritation when first used, and may be somewhat burdensome for sensitive skin. Additionally, the skin may become dry in the initial usage period, requiring the application of additional moisturizing cream.

Pros
I thought it would be thick like a cream, but it has a light lotion-like feel. It applies smoothly and softly.
Cons
But since it's a cream, I applied a lot and it feels a bit irritating.. I'm not sure if it's good for my skin. The fragrance is extremely artificial. I had high expectations, but it also feels a bit stinging and I'm disappointed. The retinol product from another brand worked well for me, but this one is really not great.

Pros
I initially used the same line ampoule, but took a break due to skin trouble issues. However, I felt that this product was pleasant to use from the beginning. I noticed an improvement in the texture of my skin. The application is also smooth.
Cons
Since it contains retinol, I tend to use it more for my night care routine. Some people may experience a slight stinging sensation at first.

Pros
I used this cream together with an ampoule from the same line, and the ampoule was a bit irritating. But when I applied this cream right after, the irritation was quickly soothed and it felt great! I guess it's because this cream has double the cica ingredients??!!! It has a thinner texture, so there might be a bit of oiliness left behind..!!
Cons
The ampoule itself was a bit stinging, so I didn't use it much. And the cream feels a bit heavy for summer.
Tip
The tube packaging is very convenient to use, so I really like that.
