Skin Type: Combination Sensitive Skin in 30s Skin Concerns: Elasticity, Wrinkles, Pores, Acne The creamy texture glides on smoothly, leaving a hydrating and plump feel on the skin. It quickly absorbs into the skin, providing elasticity while making the face feel supple. Even though I usually get clogged pores and breakouts when using most creams, I didn't experience any of that after using this. Instead, my skin looked more firm and wrinkles appeared less noticeable. People commented that my face looked plump and well-rested after using this. The application is wonderful. It spreads evenly and absorbs thoroughly without feeling heavy or sticky, leaving a refreshing finish. There's no tightness, and the hydration lasts all day, making it great for dry weather. I can immediately feel the elasticity and moisture on my skin, and there's no oily or heavy feeling even though I have oily skin. I've been using this alone in the evenings during the summer. The tube packaging is convenient for traveling or using at the sauna.
Cons
I don't have any major complaints about the product itself. The only issue is that the printed label can get scratched off when carrying it in a bag with other items. But the tube itself is sturdier than expected and doesn't leak.
Tip
I usually wear an Estée Lauder foundation, but it can lack oil and moisture, so I mix this in and it makes my makeup look so much more natural and hydrated. It keeps my skin looking dewy and comfortable all day. For those with oily skin, this could be enough to use alone even at night.

The bifidobacterium ingredient is a fermented ingredient, so I was worried that it wouldn't agree with me, but fortunately it works well and I've been using it smoothly since summer. - Fragrance It has the unique scent of the bakuchiol ingredient. It seems like no additional fragrance was added. I've also tried other bakuchiol creams and body lotions, and they had the same scent. - Spreadability At first, it felt a bit thick when applying, but it becomes smoother the more you spread it. Personally, I think this cream has a good balance of oil and moisture. - Usage In terms of the finish, there's no greasy or tacky feeling, and it absorbs into the skin well. So it might feel matte, like some other reviews mentioned. I think it's suitable for all skin types, oily or dry, and it worked well for me even in the summer. - Efficacy To be honest, I don't have high expectations for cosmetic effects, so I think this is a good, reliable product to use.
Cons
Since my skin is dry, the current mid-October weather is a bit lacking for using it as a night cream, so I'm only using it in the daytime before makeup.

This cream contains 10,000ppm (1%) of bakuchiol, a retinol-like ingredient that can be used in the morning. It is effective in improving skin elasticity and wrinkles, and so on. 1. The lid is a flip-top, not a twisting cap. 2. It is sealed.
Cons
1. Spreadability: It's too thick and applies matte, with a feeling of using up the entire product (it might be good for those who don't like a shiny finish). 2. Fragrance: Not bad, but unpleasant when your condition is not good. 3. Lack of oil-water balance (a feeling of dryness with continued use). 4. This is the most important part. In late June, I used this as the final day care cream before my morning commute, putting it in my bag and reapplying throughout the day until I got home from work. It was a cloudy day with rain, so I didn't apply any sunscreen. Thinking I'd use up the whole bottle, I diligently applied it from my forehead to my neck, collarbone, and chest area, about every 2-3 hours. At some point, I noticed redness and a warm sensation on my forehead and cheeks. After about 20-30 minutes, I started to feel the warmth on my neck and collarbone as well. Right before leaving work, I developed hives-like bumps on my neck, collarbone, and chest area that were itchy, stinging, and reddened (I thought it was pork). So for the next four nights, I applied the steroid lotion prescribed by the dermatologist and suffered for a while. I left the product at the office that day and threw it away the next morning when I came in.
Tip
This is a highly personal skin type tip, but since it's a waste of money, just don't buy it.
