Its rich texture, gentle ingredients, and quick skin texture improvement make it an excellent daily pore cream! What I loved: Formulated with 30 times more potent Bakuchiol (3,000ppm), 95% pure retinol, and peptides compared to the previous version, this cream is specially designed to care for pores from early to advanced stages. Its effectiveness is proven by clinical trials, where 96.6% of participants experienced improved pore elasticity. Despite its rich and creamy texture, it's not oily and spreads smoothly with a hydrating feel. After absorption, it leaves your skin feeling protected, smooth, and soft, making it suitable for both morning and evening use. With its nearly fragrance-free beige color, it's safe for sensitive skin! Many reviews say even retinol beginners can use it daily without irritation. Users report quick improvements in skin texture and a feeling of tightened pores the next morning! It simultaneously controls sebum and improves elasticity, making it especially recommended for those in their 20s and 30s with oily skin and pore concerns. It also works great under makeup without any pilling.
ConsThe finish is more rich and matte than watery, so extremely dry or mature skin might find it drying when used alone. If you have dry skin, be sure to layer it with a moisturizing cream. Those with very large or deep pores might not see dramatic shrinking effects, and some reviews mention that consistent use is needed for gradual changes. Since it contains retinol, you might experience temporary flaking or tingling if your skin is sensitive. It's best to start with a small amount and gradually increase usage as your skin adapts.
TipFor best results, apply a thin layer to areas with larger pores after your toner and serum in your evening routine, then layer it once more over your entire face. If you have dry skin, follow up with a hydrating cream or facial oil to balance moisture and firmness care. In the morning, applying a small amount can create a smooth skin texture like a pore primer, without causing makeup to pill! If you're sensitive or new to retinol, try using it every other day at first, then increase to daily use as your skin adjusts.

What's great is that I can see the results quickly - my pores look smaller and my complexion appears more beautiful the very next morning. The absorbs well too. I think the hydration level is perfect for spring and summer, so I'll be using it frequently during those seasons.
ConsIf I had to nitpick, it might feel a bit dry during the depths of winter. But overall, it's such an excellent product that I can't really find any significant drawbacks.

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsI love that Mamonde products often go on sale, and this one contains bakuchiol, which is great for pores, at such a reasonable price. It absorbs well and the scent is milder compared to other Mamonde products, which I really appreciate.
ConsI usually try new Amore Pacific products when they come out. I bought this one with high hopes after reading that it contains bakuchiol, which is supposed to be good for pores. However, it's too irritating for my skin. I've used retinol products from Innisfree and IOPE without any tingling, but this Mamonde bakuchiol cream makes my face burn. Fortunately, it's fine on my neck, so I'm using it as a neck cream instead.

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsI often apply this as a finishing touch after using high-performance products like retinol or vitamin C. It has great moisturizing properties, and I've been using it because the bakuchiol ingredient is said to be good for pores, similar to retinol.
ConsIt doesn't absorb very quickly, so when applying multiple layers, you need to wait for each layer to be fully absorbed. If you just slather it on, it sits on the surface and the excess oil can lead to small blemishes in the morning, especially if you have combination dehydrated skin.

ConsI'm not a fan of the scent. The absorption isn't great, though it's not too thick. The quantity for the price is a bit disappointing.

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsFirst off, it contains bakuchiol (which I've heard is gentler than retinol) and it's a pore-focused cream - how trendy! The cream's color reminds me of condensed milk, which is oddly satisfying. I love its creamy texture and how it absorbs. The best part? When I slather it on for my nightly routine, I wake up to noticeably smoother skin! I might be imagining it, but I feel like my skin is less oily too.
ConsIt's quite pricey... And while I'm not sure about the pore-minimizing effects, the amount you get is pretty small. I'd only recommend it as part of your nighttime skincare routine.
TipUse it together with The Ordinary's Niacinamide for the ultimate smooth skin experience.
