Pros
There's absolutely nothing positive to say about this product. The packaging, formula, everything is disappointing.
Cons
I purchased almost the entire Cemens line - Daily Cemens Cream, Phytocin, Finish - all of it. Despite the high price, these products have completely wrecked my skin. I've been seeing a dermatologist for a month now. They advised me to apply lots of hydration, so I used hydrating masks, serums, and creams before applying these products. Still, my face became chapped, developed dead skin cells, blemishes appeared, and my skin became red, inflamed, and painful to touch. I'm now on medication, getting injections, and undergoing treatments. Thinking maybe one product didn't suit me, I tried using them individually, but the results were the same. I have several unopened bottles and I'm at a loss. Cemens products also have an overpowering scent, like baby powder perfume. They don't moisturize, they cause blemishes - I don't understand what's supposed to be good about them, especially given their high price. Am I the only one who reacts badly to these? In review sections, everyone seems to rave about them. When I mentioned my skin's adverse reaction, I was told it's because I didn't provide enough hydration, that I should reduce the amount used, or apply moisturizer first. But isn't Cemens supposed to be moisturizing?
Tip
Phytocin is exactly like an ointment. If you use it regularly, it all bursts out. That's why in review forums, everyone starts using it with masking tape. It really does burst and ooze out, causing a mess.

Pros
I thought it would be thick since its main effect is hydration, but it's surprisingly lightweight and absorbs well. The texture is more fluid than expected, which makes it easy to apply.
Cons
At first, I was hit with a strong alcohol scent when I squeezed out a small amount, making me wonder if I had smelled it wrong. Despite only using my regular skincare products plus this, my face became severely dry and tight. Shockingly, after just two days of use, I developed facial eczema for the first time ever and had to visit a dermatologist.

Pros
There wasn't a single positive aspect... It was all drawbacks for me
Cons
Extreme dryness immediately after use. I heard using the same brand's ceramide cream would help, but it made things even worse... Plastic-like wrinkles appeared on my forehead, so I visited a dermatologist. They advised me to stop using any recently changed skincare products. After discontinuing use, the dryness and plastic-like wrinkles disappeared, but my skin kept peeling off, so I'm still undergoing treatment...

Pros
Feels like a summer regenerating cream. Can't wait for summer to arrive... The fact that it's a regenerating cream made me apply it generously, but it wasn't sticky at all. I loved how it eliminated all the greasy shine. It's almost like taking a sebum-drying medication. That's why I'd recommend using it in summer...
Cons
Not recommended for winter unless you have very oily skin! Use it in summer instead. It claims to be a regenerating cream substitute, but contains denatured alcohol... haha. Since it's winter, I applied it to dry areas, and it caused redness and itching on my cheeks. Not knowing the ingredients, I applied more hoping for regeneration, but it only made things worse. Also, the outer packaging surface peels off and leaves residue every time I squeeze it. They say they can't change the packaging because it's chosen for the product ingredients.
Tip
Be cautious of the denatured alcohol ingredient...
