It's a product for the whole family. It's just right for dry areas on adults and children. The scent is moderately refreshing and moisturizing. I usually use it on my lips, around the lips, under the nose, and around the eyes.^^
ConsThere is nothing regrettable, and it seems good to use it before going to bed^^

It's been helpful for itching and dryness.
ConsThere's nothing particularly disappointing, but it feels a bit slippery. The price is on the higher side.

Absorption and overall feel: My body skin tends to be dry in certain areas, but when I applied this to specific spots, it absorbed surprisingly well. I was pleased with how long the hydration lasted. The texture feels soft and smooth when applying, which is really nice. 2. Ingredients: While it does contain fragrance, the rest of the ingredients seem gentle. True to its name 'Calming Balm', it has fewer irritating ingredients. Compared to the Ba*lin I used before, this feels more refined and less heavy-handed in its effects. 3. Soothing effect: Although it hasn't been very hot lately so my skin hasn't been particularly irritated, when I applied it to areas that felt rough or chafed, it provided a nice sense of comfort.
Cons1. Balance: The product's strength and weakness seem to be its oiliness. While it doesn't feel as heavy as I expected, it still feels more like an ointment than an emulsion. I think it might be too much for those with oily skin. 2. Limitations: Related to point 1, it's probably best used only on specific areas that need treatment.
TipIt's important to control the amount you use.

I wish I could turn it into a perfume and wear it every day. I never knew a cica fragrance could be this amazing. It's surprisingly not thick like Vaseline as I initially thought, but rather soft and smooth, like applying a thin layer of ointment. It feels so nice! When I apply it to dry areas, it's wonderfully moisturizing and hydrating!
ConsWell, I'm not quite sure about its soothing effects just yet.
TipWhen I apply it to my nose and inhale, it has a calming effect on my mind. It's so lovely!

Skin type: Combination dehydrated, blemish-prone, enlarged pores, acne scars *Product design and texture It's similar to Vaseline. The case and texture are quite alike. Compared to Vaseline, it feels a bit cleaner and has a fresher balm texture. *Application It seems versatile enough to use on various areas. It feels like a summer version of Vaseline! Since I'm prone to blemishes, I avoided the T-zone and only applied it to dry areas like my chin, cheeks, and blemish spots. After my skincare routine, I lightly applied this cica balm before bed. In the morning, my skin felt a bit more hydrated! It seems great for applying worry-free on any dry areas like lips, hands, nails, elbows, etc. *Scent It has a rosemary and menthol fragrance. I personally love this scent, so it's a big plus for me!
ConsI thought the scent was quite strong, and I noticed it contains three potentially allergenic fragrances in the ingredients list. It might have been better if they reduced the fragrance and simplified the ingredients.
TipI think this product is really great! It'll be perfect for the upcoming summer - after swimming, when your skin feels hot, just apply this cica balm before bed. It's a must-have! It's lighter than expected, making it convenient to carry around. The cica balm scent is addictive, like Vicks VapoRub!

Texture: Initially, I thought it would be like Vaseline, but it's actually firmer. You need to warm it up by rubbing with your fingers or scrape it with your nails to apply. It's not sticky, and when applied to the face, it spreads thinly and smoothly, feeling like it's absorbing well. 2. Combats dryness: Not just for the face, it even worked as an emergency treatment for my extremely dry lips. While it didn't completely solve my severe lip dryness (which is worse than most people's), I think it would provide sufficient hydration for the average person's lips. 3. Scent: No artificial fragrance, just a subtle scent. 4. Versatile: Suitable for all dry areas including face (especially when it feels hot), feet with dead skin cells, lips, and any other dry spots. I applied it after using an air shot when my skin was sensitive and red, and it seemed to quickly calm the redness.
Cons1. I consistently applied it for about 8 days on stress-related blemishes on my chin, hoping for a soothing effect. While there was a sense of reduced size and redness, it's hard to tell if this was due to the product or natural healing, as the improvement over 8 days was quite slow. 2. Packaging: The container is similar to Vaseline's, to the point where I initially mistook it for a Vaseline product. Given the texture of the product, it might be difficult to change the packaging, but having to scoop it out with fingers makes it challenging to maintain hygiene.
TipAfter washing your hands thoroughly, you can use the back of your nail to scrape out the amount you need, avoiding the need to repeatedly rub with your fingers.

It starts with a minty aroma and then transitions to a cinnamon fragrance. How delightful! This balm is thicker than Vaseline and doesn't melt as easily, which I prefer since I don't like products that become too runny. Just like Vaseline, it retains its moisturizing power even after washing with soap! But it leaves less of an oily residue, which is great!
ConsBe careful if it accidentally gets in your hair... it's a nightmare to deal with! Watch out for your locks! Due to its firm texture, you might need to use your fingernails to scrape out a good amount if you want to use more.

However, Nutcerin's Cica Nut Calming Balm felt lighter yet still effectively combated dryness. - I appreciated that it felt lighter and less sticky than petroleum jelly when applied. While there's still some stickiness, it's more suitable for nighttime use rather than daytime. It feels too heavy to apply before makeup and can cause some pilling. - Sometimes petroleum jelly caused blemishes on my face, but I haven't experienced any breakouts with the Nutcerin Cica Nut Calming Balm, possibly due to its cica ingredients. Although it claims to have an immediate soothing effect on blemishes, I didn't notice any instant relief. - Overall, I found it to be a decent product.
Cons- While it has a lighter texture and less stickiness than petroleum jelly, it still leaves a sticky residue that attracts hair and dust, making it inconvenient for everyday use. It's more suitable for nighttime use or special care at home. - The lack of a spatula is disappointing, as you need to use a cotton swab or separate spatula for hygienic application. - As a vegan product, the price seems a bit high for the amount you get. - The natural(?) scent might be polarizing. (It smells similar to a solid balm I bought in Hong Kong.) - It doesn't seem suitable for use during the oily summer months.
Tip- When applied to areas prone to fine lines like around the eyes and nasolabial folds, it provides ample hydration and moisture, potentially eliminating the need for a separate anti-wrinkle cream.

Texture: I thought it would be a thick, petroleum jelly-like consistency, but it's actually quite solid. When you rub it with your hands, it melts with your body heat, transforming into a multi-purpose balm! 2. Ingredients: What caught my eye was shea butter as the second ingredient! It creates a protective layer on the face, preventing moisture loss from the skin. I was thrilled to see shea butter so high up on the ingredient list! Overall, the ingredients are mostly natural, so if you're ingredient-conscious, this might be a better choice than petroleum-based products. 3. Application: It feels like it's wrapping your skin in a light oil layer without being heavy. It's perfect for when you want to care for dry areas but don't want the stickiness of petroleum jelly. The hydration lasts long, making it great for dry skin types to apply liberally on any areas with dead skin cells. 4. Scent: The aroma is very therapeutic, giving a sense of relaxation. Applying it under your nose before bed might even help with mental relaxation.
ConsBecause the texture is firm, it only applies thinly when rubbed with fingers. This makes it difficult to apply a thick layer. It would have been better if it came with a silicone brush or built-in spatula! As for the price, well... it's naturally more expensive than petroleum jelly (just look at the ingredients...).
TipI'm not just using it as a lip balm, but also for nail care! If you apply this daily to the skin around your fingernails and toenails where it tends to get white and dry, they become beautifully smooth and glossy. It's great for moisturizing any dry spots all over your body! It's also good as a highlighter when gently applied to the cheekbones.

The packaging was absolutely adorable! The texture looks firm, but it's actually a balm type that melts smoothly with your body heat. It absorbs well, melting gently as it touches the skin. The scent has a strong herbal aroma which might be hit or miss for some, but I personally didn't mind it! Rather than using it alone, it works best as a final step in your skincare routine, creating a protective layer that really helps with hydration!
ConsFor my super sensitive skin, especially during this seasonal change when my skin is acting up, it didn't quite work out. The day after using it, my skin became red and irritated, so I had to stop using it immediately. I think the timing wasn't right, so I might try it again once my skin calms down. On the bright side, I've been using it on my hands and nails, and the hydration is fantastic!
