It's great for calming the skin.
ConsUnfortunately, it doesn't really tackle dryness or blemishes. Plus, it's quite pricey.

The biggest advantage is that you can see the soothing effects on redness and blemishes the very next morning! If you need to pamper your skin before an important event, there's nothing better than this... I can truly vouch for it!
ConsThis is absolutely not for morning use. I thought it might be okay because of its gel-cream texture, so I tried it before makeup, but it pills terribly. If you're reading this review, please, only use it for night care!
TipWhen you feel a pimple coming on, applying this generously works even better than using a sheet mask!

Soothing effect: Absolutely amazing! All my small blemishes disappeared, and even though I had redness and irritation from breakouts, within about two days, the tingling sensation was gone and the small blemishes had mostly cleared up. I have super sensitive skin, and I highly recommend this! Lightweight feel: As someone with combination dehydrated skin, I tend to get oily quickly after skincare, but this cream is so light and pleasant to apply! It's marketed as a cream that improves the skin barrier, and it's true! When I had small blemishes and my skin was peeling, even using a toner pad caused prolonged irritation. But after using this cream, the irritation completely disappeared! Especially since all my small blemishes cleared up, this is definitely a product I'll repurchase.
Cons- I was a bit concerned about hygiene since it doesn't come with a spatula, but that was the only issue! However, I noticed there's a tube version available, so I might try that next time. - For those with dry skin, this cream might feel a bit light, so you may feel dry after just one application.

It doesn't pill at all when applied before makeup (just don't overdo it!). The soothing effect is beyond words... The hydration is quite good too (it even tackles deep dryness). In winter, I mix it with other creams. During transitional seasons like now, it works well on its own, or you can blend it with a barrier cream. In summer, mixing it with an emulsion is perfect... It's somewhat similar to Pa*one, but with a slightly lighter texture. It might be a bit heavy for oily skin types, but should be fine for combination dehydrated skin! For dry skin, I recommend mixing it with other products!
ConsThere are no downsides. I bought a double set last summer and still haven't finished the first tube.. I tend to mix creams when applying, so that might be why, but please note that the amount is more than you might expect!
TipMy routine is roughly: Winter: Barrier cream + this product (+ Madecassoside cream/Illiyoon Ato something) Transitional seasons: This product + Bioderma Pommade/Illiyoon Summer: This product (+ Madecassoside/Illiyoon/Birch sap moisturizer) Since using this, the intervals between skin flare-ups have increased. Just give it a try..! Keep up the good work today too!

When my skin barrier is compromised and no amount of hydration seems to stick, leaving me with extreme dryness and flaking, nothing beats this. If I sense my barrier is weakening, I carry the tube version with me and apply it throughout the day to keep my skin from drying out. While it's not dramatically instant, it definitely reduces the time it takes for my skin to reach that extremely dry state the next day. I usually buy the 3-tube set from the Naver brand store as it's typically the most cost-effective. It's truly a repurchase-worthy item (as evidenced by the photo!). While I don't use this exclusively, I personally find it more effective than many high-end products. Lately, I've been using it with my LDM device.
ConsThere's not much to dislike... I've seen my aunt use it before applying makeup, and she uses a small amount with careful control. If you're using it before makeup, you'll need to adjust the quantity. When used with other skincare products, you need to time the absorption well, or it tends to pill. If that happens, I just wipe it off and reapply. The price is quite reasonable.
TipThese days, I use this as a cream substitute when using my LDM device, and I think it might even be better than ultrasound gel. I feel I need to test it a bit more though.

It's the ultimate item that tackles both deep dryness and blemishes. I can honestly vouch for buying tons of this stuff. I use it so much because it's consistently amazing. It's perfect for soothing my skin after dermatologist visits. With its gentle and hydrating formula, it's the best product for combination dehydrated skin.
ConsBuying it at Olive Young is actually more expensive. You're better off purchasing it from Naver Store for a better deal.
TipMake sure to pat it in for better absorption. I'm currently using the mini Booster Pro and it pairs perfectly with this. The more you layer it, applying small amounts multiple times, the more your skin drinks it up. If you're feeling dry or have an important event the next day, generously apply it before bed. You'll wake up with a radiant complexion. It also works great in combination with acne treatments for those using them!

My child started developing blemishes, so I bought this product on recommendation from Olive Young. I've also used it a few times when I get occasional breakouts. We're on our nth bottle and still using it regularly. ✓ Helps soothe skin and strengthen the skin barrier ✓ Hydration (★★★★★) → With panthenol as an ingredient, it's incredibly moisturizing and leaves skin feeling hydrated. ✓ Texture → It has a light, refreshing water-based formula. Great for daily use. ✓ Packaging → The round container is surprisingly weighty and large. It's also available as a refill, which is nice. The large case makes the amount of product look smaller - a bit of packaging magic! ✓ Application → Glides on smoothly and feels great. ✓ Absorption → Doesn't sit on the skin and applies evenly. You can feel it absorbing as you apply. It absorbs quickly without leaving any white cast, leaving skin moisturized. Suitable for both morning and evening use as a light moisturizer.
ConsThere's not really anything to complain about. I just wish it went on sale more often.
TipIt's great that it comes in a tube and refill options, reducing unnecessary packaging waste. My teenager's breakouts have decreased a bit with consistent cleansing and application of this product.

My skin tends to get red and heated when irritated, but after applying this cream, the heat subsides quickly. By the next day, my skin's condition is so much better. What's more, even though I have dry skin, the hydration level is great. It's not sticky at all - instead, it has a nice moisture content while absorbing cleanly. I'm really satisfied with it!
ConsThe only downside might be the price... But it's truly worth every penny, so I highly recommend giving it a try!
TipTry applying a thin layer all over, then add an extra thick layer on areas that are blemish-prone or sensitive. The next day, those blemishes will have calmed down significantly!

As someone with combination dehydrated skin, this product was perfect for me during summer and fall. The cica ingredients seem to help calm my skin too.
ConsFor winter use, it causes deep dryness, so I need to use a more moisturizing cream separately.
