Its application is completely different from any other cream I've used before. At first, it feels like you're applying a thick, mineral-based sunscreen. Then, interestingly, the moisture and the dense cream seem to separate as you apply it, creating a unique sensation. As I was applying it, I kept wondering if I was doing it correctly. The way the moisture and thick cream separate during application made me question whether it was being evenly distributed across my face. When I tried to apply more to areas that seemed under-covered, or when I used a generous amount initially, I noticed a blemish appear on my forehead. I didn't even attempt to apply makeup over this cream. I could tell it would likely cause pilling if I tried. The application experience leaves much to be desired.
ConsThe moisture and cream separate during application, spreading unevenly. It applies quite thickly, making it difficult to ensure even coverage across the face. The overall application experience is disappointing.

Even the tiniest speck of dust can make me itch, so I can't use just any skincare product. Winter has been especially tough, leaving me struggling with deep dryness that just wouldn't go away. This cream is a game-changer though! It doesn't irritate my blemishes or eczema patches, and when I apply it, it gives me this incredible glow while hydrating my skin. It's like it balances my oil and moisture levels perfectly. Since I started using this eye cream, I wake up with skin that feels comfortable and hydrated. I'd highly recommend this cream for winter use to everyone except those with oily skin.
ConsI got the chance to try this cream, and to be honest, I wasn't expecting much at first because of how it felt when applying. I used my usual routine of toner, serum, then cream, but it was so thick that it was hard to spread evenly over my face.
TipI found a trick though! If you apply a thin layer of your regular moisturizer first and let it absorb, then put this cream on top, it glides on smoothly and absorbs well. I've tried layering it with different serums too, but it works best over a light moisturizer. If you're looking for a subtle Inner Glow before makeup, this could be perfect to apply pre-foundation. Just make sure to use an oil-free sunscreen afterward.

But it's packed to the brim without any gaps! I even tapped the container to check for air, but there was no give. So despite the small packaging, the volume is generous. The texture is incredibly rich. Its high density seems to provide excellent hydration after application. The scent might be divisive. It's somewhat herbal yet artificial, reminiscent of Lush's Chamomile body cream. The lingering fragrance isn't overwhelming though - it's barely noticeable. They claim 72-hour moisture retention, and I can confirm the skin stays hydrated well into the next day. Using it morning and night makes my skin feel plump. It seems perfect for dry winter skin!
ConsThe thick consistency is a bit disappointing. While I believe in using rich creams in winter rather than thin ones, this cream doesn't spread easily. It feels even stiffer than toothpaste. It tends to clump when applied to the skin. You need to keep rolling it to spread it out, and it doesn't really melt transparently with body heat. It's frustrating that you need to apply pressure to spread it. And the stickiness is off the charts! As shown in the photo, hair sticks to it that much after application. It becomes less sticky after absorption, but it's by far the stickiest cream I've ever used. Because of this, I'd recommend applying it at night before bed rather than in the morning.
TipMy skin is sensitive and dry, so I usually need to use a generous amount of cream. However, with this one, a little goes a long way. After using it for about a week, here's my tip: Instead of dabbing it on your forehead and cheeks and then spreading, try dotting small amounts all over your face before blending. This makes application much easier. Despite its thick consistency and stickiness, I'd recommend it as a winter night cream. It's non-irritating and seems excellent for skin hydration.

Recently, the weather's been so cold that I had to layer multiple skincare products just to feel somewhat moisturized. But with this one, a single application is enough to prevent any deep dryness. At first, I didn't notice because it felt a bit thick when applying, but after washing my hands, I realized it left a rich feeling - that's why the hydration is so good, I think. I didn't experience any irritation or discomfort, either during or after application. After using it and waking up the next morning, my skin felt so hydrated that my complexion seemed more even and slightly healthier - like I had a bit of an Inner Glow. The scent might be a bit divisive, but I absolutely loved it. It's more fresh and fragrant than typical skincare products - it really smells wonderful. The texture is truly unique too, it's sticky like caramel, which was a first for me in terms of product consistency.
ConsWhen applying, you can't smooth it on easily. It's quite thick, so you have to pat it on gently. Since it doesn't immediately feel oily after application, it's hard to control the amount. People with oily skin really need to be careful with how much they use. If you're not careful, it can make your skin look extremely shiny.
TipFor those with oily skin, it's best to use a very small amount on areas prone to excess oil, like the nose, or use a lighter formula in those areas. It's a good idea to apply a small amount all over your face and then add an extra layer on dry areas.

Recently, no matter what I applied, my skin would get dry after a few hours, but with this, my skin stays moisturized all day long! The texture feels a bit thick when applying, but as it melts with your skin's warmth, it seems to maintain that moisturizing effect for a long time. There are no irritating ingredients, so it feels a bit like applying Bepanthen? It seems to be a suitable cream for dry or super sensitive skin. When I'm at home all day, I apply it morning and evening. If I need to go out and wear makeup during the day, I apply it in the evening after washing up when I return home! The scent wasn't overpowering, so that was fine too! The packaging is minimalist without any unnecessary frills, making the design pretty and eco-friendly.
ConsThe thick application is a bit disappointing. You get used to it as you use it, but it was quite a surprise when I first tried it.

Texture: Incredibly thick and creamy, reminiscent of cream cheese. The firm consistency defies gravity, as shown in the photo. 2. Application: Applying it feels like spreading cold cream cheese on a bagel - it's quite dense. 3. User experience: I applied this as the final step in my routine, after skin, emulsion, ampoule, and eye cream. Despite its thick texture, once applied, it wraps around the skin beautifully, leaving it feeling firm and supple. It also had a soothing, ointment-like quality. I was amazed to see my small blemishes disappear overnight. My skin is extremely dry, usually requiring me to mix in Vaseline, but with this cream... even the next morning, my skin still feels hydrated! It's incredible... I'm so impressed!
ConsIf used alone, it might be too thick and difficult to spread easily.
TipIt works best when applied after hydrating products like ampoules and toners to create a moisturized, supple base. Even those with oily skin might find this suitable! It doesn't feel greasy.

My skin type before use: Sensitive + slightly dry, with occasional deep dryness.. + A few blemishes popped up ✔️Packaging: Palm-sized with a clean & simple design, but feels heavier than expected ✔️Scent: A subtle mix of medicinal and... herbal notes? Not overpowering or particularly noticeable ✔️Texture: Just as it looks in the photo... a really thick, rich consistency ✔️Application & Results: - Despite its heavy appearance, it spreads more thinly than expected - It's rich, so there's some stickiness, but it's manageable - Initially, you feel the hydration, then a slight cooling effect as it absorbs Then it finishes with a firming sensation - After absorption, it moisturizes without excessive oiliness, feeling comfortable and not stuffy - No irritation when applied to blemishes, and didn't cause any new breakouts - The next day, skin feels soft and supple without dryness - It's effective for deep dryness too Conclusion: It's a bit of a workout to apply, but worth the effort! It's an intriguing product in many ways At first I was taken aback, but once I got used to it, I'm satisfied overall, except for the application difficulty!
ConsThe biggest drawback is definitely how long it takes to apply..? It's stiff until it melts, and if you don't fully absorb the previous skincare steps, it won't spread and just slides around Of course, the product is designed to melt with body heat, but for those with cold hands and feet, especially in winter, it's hard to melt and spread evenly... Not for the impatient! I skip it when I'm busy and usually use it for night care or when I have more time!
TipIf you have cold hands and feet, it's especially challenging to spread, so try applying small amounts in multiple spots! And if you've used a hydrating product in your previous skincare steps, make sure it's fully absorbed to minimize pilling

This one's solved that problem for me! Right after application, it might feel a bit tight or dry, but as time passes, you can feel it deeply hydrating your skin. When I apply it before bed, I wake up with less oiliness around my nose and T-zone, which is really satisfying.
ConsWhile I understand the thick texture means it won't absorb as easily, it's still a bit disappointing. I tried layering small amounts of the cream, but it was too stiff to apply additional layers effectively.
TipFor better application, use a hydrating product in your skincare routine before this cream. Then, scoop out a generous amount and spread it over your face. It absorbs much better this way!

It's so thick and rich that you can hear a 'pop' sound when opening the lid! I'm impressed by the clean and simple packaging design, which complements the high-quality ingredients. The small, cute round container in pristine white is a nice touch. Extra points for the easily recyclable packaging that considers sustainability! Though it's a small 50ml container, the rich texture means it'll last a while. The jar is packed to the brim, so you don't feel short-changed. It's perfect for targeting specific dry areas. Despite its thick consistency, it's gentle and absorbs surprisingly quickly. It feels a bit stiff when applying, but once absorbed, your skin feels delightfully plump. The long-lasting firmness and hydration make it easy to understand why it's nicknamed 'butter cream'. It feels like it's creating a moisture-locking barrier with its 'butter cream texture'. Interestingly, even though it's super thick and rich, it doesn't contain any pore-clogging or oily skin irritating ingredients. That's why it feels so kind and gentle on the skin. This product is a lifesaver for extreme winter dryness. I highly recommend it for winter, seasonal changes, dry skin, and those who love rich cream textures!
Cons- The application can feel very stiff. When I first opened it, I was surprised by how thick and heavy it was, but I gradually got used to it. - While it absorbs well, there's a slight feeling of heaviness. - I applied it generously around my nose due to dryness, but the scent wasn't pleasant. The cream itself didn't have an off-putting smell, but as I massaged it into the skin around my nose, an unpleasant odor developed. The more I rubbed it in circles around my nose, the stronger the smell became. It has a strong rubber-like scent. Fortunately, the smell only lasts during application and doesn't linger. (Interestingly, fragrance is listed in the ingredients. I wonder what purpose it serves...) - The jar-type container doesn't come with a spatula, which is inconvenient. How am I supposed to use this? It raises hygiene concerns; an included tool would be helpful. - Given its texture, it might be challenging to use in summer. - It's more suitable as a night cream. I noticed more dust on my face than usual after sleeping with it on.
TipApply a small amount of cream to your face and gently warm it with your hands. Then, massage it in softly.

I was worried the scent might be too strong, but it's not overpowering at all. I don't feel any deep dryness, so I'm much more satisfied with this product than I expected. I think even those with super sensitive skin will find it moisturizing enough with just this cream after their basic skincare routine. The Inner Glow effect is really amazing, and I highly recommend applying it before makeup!!!
ConsWhen first applied, there's a slight burning sensation, but it disappears quickly. It would be nice if it came with a spatula. Initially, you might be surprised by how thick it feels when applying, but if you slowly massage it in using the warmth of your hands, it spreads easily.
TipApply this before makeup for a dewy complexion even in winter!
