However, even after applying several layers, it feels too dry and ineffective...ㅠ
ConsThe inner dryness is too severe. After the renewal, the inner dryness feels very severe, and I regret purchasing it.

I really don't think it deserves even one star. I really want to file a complaint with Apieu. Why did they make this? Is this what they call a renewal? Don't discontinue the previous products, just keep making those instead. I'll buy and use that one.
ConsMy skin is already quite bad, so no matter what I apply, it doesn't show and I just use it without any issues. But with this product, I really learned what a terrible cream is. 1. It doesn't absorb 2. Since it doesn't absorb, of course severe dryness occurs? The cream hardens and peels off my parched skin like dead skin. 3. As a result, my skin is left in a terrible state. There is absolutely no moisturizing effect. Please, just make the ones you were making before.
TipI just threw it away.

It's unusually soft among the soft creams... So I just slather it on my face and wash it off like a storm And the next day, my skin seems to have become stronger (it could be just a feeling) This large volume for 20,000 won is very touching Amore Pacific, please survive! Even if you have to become a bargaining king like Skin Food... Ah, I want to tell everyone, but it's not even on Olive Young...
ConsThere is none. If I had to write something, it's that using only this one doesn't seem to 100% solve the pulling feeling (of course, this is based on extreme dryness)
TipAmore Pacific, it's even better when you use it with other skin care products

It has the feel of adding a drop of cream to aloe vera gel. The texture has a slightly gritty (?) quality. If regular lotions and creams are like soft ice cream, this product is more like a sorbet in comparison. When applied, it feels refreshing and spreads easily on the skin without any stickiness. It also adheres well to the skin. The aloe vera gel has no oiliness, so there is a slightly tightening sensation when applied, but this product has a bit of oil content, so it works well as a substitute for lotion.
ConsNormally, I only use the Physiogel lotion. (As you can see from my previous reviews, the more products I layered like toners and creams, the more my skin would break out and even start oozing. After being prescribed to just use the lotion by a dermatologist, I've been using Physiogel lotion alone for years without any trouble.) Even though I have combination skin, the lack of oil in this product caused breakouts for me. After using this product, small pimples started popping up on my skin. There was also a slight tightening sensation. I suspected this product was the culprit, so I went back to using the products I was using before, and the small pimples disappeared. For those of you who use multiple basic skincare products, this might work well for you.

Current skin concerns -> After the recent COVID-19 situation, my skin barrier has completely collapsed, and I'm now experiencing acne that I didn't even have during my teenage years. The results from the dermatological device showed that my skin is dry, produces little sebum, and has no acne-causing bacteria. My skin condition is characterized by severe cystic acne on both cheeks (especially the right one) and a few closed comedones on my forehead! 2. Usual nighttime routine Anua Heartleaf Toner -> Toridoll Dive-in Serum -> Cell Fusion C Cream (MD) -> La Roche-Posay Cicaplast Baume B5 🩶 What I liked 1. Soothing As you can see from the photos, after just over a week of using the product, my cystic acne has improved slightly. In fact, I've seen more benefits for my acne scars than the acne itself! 2. Texture The texture reminds me of the lightweight version of the Dr.G Hydrating Cream. Despite being a cicaplast cream, it feels incredibly moisturizing yet lightweight, making it suitable for oily skin types as well. 3. Cooling effect As expected, when applied after refrigerating, the cooling sensation was much more pronounced. But even when applied at room temperature, the cream provided a sufficient cooling effect to soothe my flushed skin.
Cons1. Moisturizing power For the first 3 days, I used the Apieu Madecassoside Tetrasoom Cica Cream instead of the La Roche-Posay Cicaplast Cream in my usual nighttime routine. However, my dry skin started feeling tight and parched about 1-2 hours later, and I experienced severe tightness in the morning. Adding the La Roche-Posay cream back in the next step helped sufficiently address this issue. 2. Breakouts For those with dry skin prone to closed comedones, you'll need to ensure adequate hydration when using the Apieu Madecassoside Tetrasoom Cica Cream. I also experienced some forehead breakouts in the first 3 days, but adding more hydration resolved this.
TipDry skin needs a thorough basic routine! This product seems suitable for oily or combination skin types as well. Storing it in the refrigerator is heavenly!

I have sensitive skin. It's definitely very gentle! It absorbs quickly too. It wasn't irritating, which I liked. The amount also seems quite generous, so I think I can use it for a long time.
ConsThe cap was a bit disappointing as it requires twisting to open. Since I don't tend to see much effect from cica products, and the usage period was short, I didn't notice any improvement in my dry skin.
TipIf dryness is a concern, I think using this cream along with another gentle moisturizer would be even better!

First of all, I thought it was perfect for a summer cream as it has a light application and no stickiness. And even if I only use an amount the size of a bean, I can spread it across my entire face and have a little left over to apply on the back of my hand, so I think it will last a long time. And I'm not sure if it's just a coincidence, but I was recently working in front of oil and was about to get some pimples, but they subsided within two days after I started using this. So while the calming effect is not definite, I felt it was a gentle cream. My husband doesn't like sticky textures, so he only uses lotion, but he's going to start using this together with me.
ConsWhile it's not overly drying, the lightweight formula does sometimes leave a slightly dry feeling.
TipAs it finishes with a powdery feel, if you need more moisture, it would be fine to layer it several times.

Even a little oiliness or slow absorption can immediately lead to acne breakouts. The formula is a translucent, moisture-rich cream texture. It could also be described as having a slightly jelly-like feel. I don't usually like these types of formulas as they don't absorb well and take a long time to absorb (which then leads to acne flare-ups), but when I patted it in thoroughly, it absorbed completely without any stickiness or oiliness. Even though I currently have a lot of blemishes and acne, it hasn't made the situation worse. The tube packaging helps prevent air exposure better than a jar, which I was satisfied with. I would define this as a cream that is good for oily skin to use in the summer.
ConsEven for my oily skin, I felt some dryness, so I would not recommend this to those with dry skin.
TipSince the absorption is a bit slow, it's best to apply it in thin layers and pat it in well to help it absorb.
