It has good absorption and is a really light soothing cream? I end up using it heavily as a daily moisturizer - it's also refreshing.
ConsAfter the renewal, there's a disappointing point - it's become a bit drying. Please bring back the pre-renewal version.

The absorbency and spreadability were really clean and I liked it.
ConsThe cream gets pushed off my face like a peel 😢 I was wondering if it was an issue with my face's exfoliation or just the product, so I used a lot of scrubs and cleansers, but then I found out that other people using this product also said the cream gets pushed off like a peel. Those who don't wear makeup at all might be able to use it well if they apply the right amount and let it absorb properly, but everyone should be cautious!

Just a light tap and it's absorbed right away.
ConsIt stings a bit when applied to wounds. There's also a slightly drying sensation. The previous lineup seemed to fit a bit better.

Fragrance disappears. Strong soothing cream sensation.
ConsI used this product for about 4 years before the reformulation, but after the reformulation, it became too drying, so I started using a different cream. The price also seems to have increased, and the reformulated product is practically a completely different product. It may suit some people's preferences better.

ConsAs a sensitive and dry-skinned person, when I used the Apieu skin-serum-cream, it dried out quickly. So I had to apply a moisturizing lotion in the middle.

ConsThese days, the weather is a bit chilly, so it's a bit dry, which is a downside🥹🥹

In hot weather, this product is easily absorbed and has a soothing effect, so it would be great to use in the summer when my skin easily becomes red or feels hot. The texture is similar to a mix of aloe vera soothing gel and a regular cream - it looks a bit watery but is not actually runny, and it applies smoothly without any stickiness or greasiness, absorbing quickly. Despite my sensitive skin, I did not experience any breakouts. I like the tube packaging, which makes it convenient to carry and use on the go.
ConsI prefer creams that leave a plump, deeply moisturized feel on my skin after application, but this one, while moisturizing on the surface, doesn't seem to penetrate deeply or provide long-lasting hydration. I feel a bit of dryness and oiliness. The size and packaging are fine, but the twist-cap style, while preventing spills if dropped, is a bit inconvenient to open and close repeatedly.
TipStoring this in the fridge and using it chilled could enhance the soothing benefits, especially when dealing with heat-related irritation or breakouts. I also tried applying it to the back of my hand after doing dishes, and it helped calm the irritation and redness there quickly, absorbing without any stickiness. So while it's great for the face, this product could be useful for soothing sensitivity on other areas of the body as well.

It absorbs quickly and is moisturizing. I found it works well when applied in the evening before bed. Most importantly, I'm satisfied that I can use this product and then apply a matte cushion on top. A little goes a long way and covers my entire face.
ConsThere weren't really any downsides to using this product. If I had to nitpick, the only slightly inconvenient thing was having to open and close the cap, but the tube packaging is hygienic and convenient overall.
TipI'd recommend this product for dry skin types. Apply it, then follow up with a matte cushion or foundation - it won't cause them to separate or look cakey.

The Apieu Madecassoside Tetrasol Sica Cream comes in a tube type, making it easy to apply. It's a great functional cosmetic product! Apieu's upgraded Sica soothing ingredients contain 7 different core components, and it is said to have 3 times faster absorption compared to the previous Madecassoside 2X cream, so I had high expectations. :) The texture is watery and softly applies, full of moisture. When spreading it with my hands, it feels like a transparent protective layer is thinly coated. Also, as a person with oily skin, I didn't experience any greasiness or stickiness, and it absorbed quickly, so I think it would be great to use especially in the summer. After using it consistently for 2 weeks, I felt that my blemishes and bumps were subsiding, and it also seemed effective in reducing redness. I have the intention to repurchase. 😘
ConsDue to the product's characteristics, I felt that it might lack moisturization in the winter or for dry skin types. In those cases, it would be good to apply a thin layer of jojoba oil on top.

But this one didn't feel sticky at all, and it didn't cause any breakouts. The small-particle Tetrazole technology really made it absorb quickly.
Cons👎🏼 Insufficient moisturizing power I have combination skin with acne, and I felt this product didn't provide enough moisture when I used it alone. It might be too drying for people with dry skin. The calming and cooling effects they mentioned weren't very noticeable when I applied it.
TipSince this cream alone doesn't provide enough moisture, it would be better to apply an ampoule before using it. The large volume size is reasonably priced, so this Cica cream could be worth trying out.
