Scent A wonderfully invigorating herbal aroma that makes you feel healthier! 2. Application It glides on smoothly with a silky texture - love it! 3. Moisturizing effect When it comes to moisturizing creams, Real Barrier is the go-to. Apply it at night, and your skin stays plump until morning! This benefit will likely shine during seasonal changes and winter. 4. Moisture barrier I have a habit of drying my hair with a fan after showering in summer. Usually, most creams seem to evaporate quickly, leaving my skin dry, but this product forms a barrier that keeps dryness at bay! The hydration is truly impressive. 5. Packaging This might be separate from the product itself, but... Even though I received it as part of The Hwahae Testers, I was touched that it came in proper packaging! While smaller than the full-size product, it still comes with a generous bonus amount. Real Barrier... the love!
Cons1. Surface-sitting feeling Right after application, it feels like it's sitting on top of the skin, creating a slightly uncomfortable sensation. 2. Hydration Compared to Real Barrier Extreme Cream, when applied at night, both give a similar feeling of adhering to the face like a mask until morning. However, the Light version seems to lack hydration, making it feel more oily than the original. If I were to repurchase, I'd likely go for the original version.

ConsSince I have oily skin, I felt a bit suffocated as soon as I applied the cream. Also, I'm not a fan of the scent - it smells like clay? This might work better in the dead of winter rather than the current season.
TipWhen applying makeup, don't layer on too much. Instead, apply a thin layer and let it absorb well. I made the mistake of applying too much before my makeup, thinking it would last longer, and it ended up pilling.

This one, however, isn't a heavy cream, making it perfect for my current needs! My skin is super sensitive, so I patch-tested it first. As expected from Real Barrier products, it's gentle enough that I didn't experience any blemishes or adverse reactions. After that, I started using it all over my face, and so far, I find it better than my usual cream, so I've switched to this one. It's gentle enough for sensitive skin, so I think most people would be able to use it comfortably! I used to love the Real Barrier Extreme Cream, but this one is lighter, so it might be good to switch between them seasonally. After application, it feels like it forms a slight film, but it's not unpleasant or sticky - more like it's strengthening the skin barrier, which is nice. Even with this sensation, overall it absorbs well, so it didn't bother me much!
ConsWhile it's a light cream, some might find it a bit heavy for the peak of summer. It's actually perfect for transitional seasons like now. My skin tends to act up during these times, so I'm hoping this will help me get through it! There's a slight herbal or medicinal scent, but it's not overpowering. Personally, I prefer this natural fragrance to artificial ones, so I don't consider it a major drawback. However, those sensitive to scents might want to keep this in mind!
TipIt might be more beneficial for skin regeneration if you layer it on multiple times at night rather than in the morning!

Given the current hot and humid weather, it felt a bit heavy on my oily skin. However, the quick-absorbing formula made it comfortable to use. I think those with dry skin will be particularly satisfied with this product. After applying it before bed, I was amazed to see a noticeable improvement in my skin texture the next morning! Recently, with school starting and the accumulation of stress, studies, and fatigue, my skin had been acting up. But this cream really helped calm and improve it, which was a pleasant surprise! Since then, I've been using it consistently. I'm really impressed with the results!
ConsThe scent is overpowering. Also, due to the current humid and hot weather, those with combination or oily skin might find it heavy and slightly suffocating.
TipSince I have oily skin and found it a bit heavy, I've been mixing it with aloe gel to create a lighter texture for use.

I've had positive experiences with the original Extreme Cream for winter barrier care. This Light version is less rich, making it more convenient for use in less dry weather or during seasonal changes. When layered on bare skin after cleansing, I didn't experience any deep dryness or surface dehydration.
ConsDespite being a 'Light' version, it's still a cream at its core, so it might feel a bit heavy for those with oily skin.
TipExcellent for use on its own when the skin barrier is compromised. When used with other skincare products, apply lightly as the final step or mix with other oils for enhanced effectiveness.

ConsSlightly thicker than a typical moisturizer, may feel heavy for those who prefer lighter textures Combination and oily skin types might experience blemishes if applied too generously in the current season
TipRecommended for use on dry areas that don't tend to get oily

I used to use random products without knowing this, but I've recently started taking proper care of my skin. Most acids and oils don't work for me, and even centella sometimes causes breakouts. I have a bunch of skincare products at home, and when I tried my old Real Barrier Aqua Soothing Cream (blue jar) that expires this October, my skin found its salvation! So I immediately bought the Light version of this cream on Hwahae for summer use and as a makeup base. I haven't started wearing makeup yet, but I've been doing a basic skincare routine for about 5 days: cleansing, toner or exfoliating toner, serum, essence, and a thin layer of this light cream. My skin has improved tremendously! After using rich creams without knowing better and suffering from milia and blemishes, I've finally found the cause. I used to be so itchy I thought I was dying, but now I sleep peacefully and wake up without any new bumps. I'm on the verge of tears!
ConsThose with oily skin might find it a bit heavy. Applying too much could potentially cause blemishes, but a thin layer feels sufficient (based on my experience after completing my full skincare routine).
TipAlthough it's a light cream, it has a somewhat thick consistency, so it's best to apply it in a thin layer.

ConsIt feels a bit heavy in summer. More importantly, it seems my skin didn't agree with it as I had an allergic reaction. This has never happened to me before. Make sure to check the ingredients for any potential allergens before purchasing.

Pros: Absorbs well and seems to effectively combat deep dryness. It also has a cooling effect that helps soothe facial heat. Despite my super sensitive skin, I haven't experienced any blemishes so far.
ConsAs mentioned, the fragrance is quite noticeable. It might not suit those who prefer unscented or very subtle fragrances like me. Also, due to the cream's density, it can feel a bit heavy after application.
