When applied as the final step in your skincare routine, it absorbs well and doesn't feel sticky. Initially, it might seem heavy and oily, but surprisingly, it's not greasy and doesn't sit on top of the skin. After absorption, it leaves behind only hydration, making your skin's surface feel soft and moist. It's not a suffocating cream or one that leaves an oily residue. I highly recommend it as a hydrating, nourishing moisturizer with low oil content! While the application might feel a bit stiff, which is a slight drawback, this texture is what allows for that soft, hydrated feel. For those with dry skin, it leaves your skin feeling moisturized deep down and velvety on the surface. If you're looking for a low-oil hydrating cream for winter, I definitely recommend this!
ConsThe dense texture requires application as the final step in your skincare routine.
TipUse as the last step in your skincare regimen.

I initially thought it might sit on top of the skin, but surprisingly, it adheres well and absorbs quickly, which I really appreciate. When applied before bed, it keeps my skin hydrated until the next day and significantly improves deep dryness, leaving me very satisfied.
ConsThe thick, creamy texture might be a hit or miss for some people. It comes in a jar packaging, but unfortunately doesn't include a spatula, which is a bit disappointing.
TipThis product gives higher satisfaction when used before bedtime rather than in the morning.

I was worried it might not absorb well because of how rich it was. But if you spread it thinly and let your body heat melt the cream as you apply, it absorbs quickly. It has excellent moisturizing power and really hydrates your skin. When I apply it at night, I wake up with skin that stays moisturized even in winter. Especially these days, when I'm constantly sitting in front of the heater, my skin could easily get dry. But thanks to applying the Cerolabs Intense Repair Cream in the evening, I'm maintaining hydrated skin.
ConsI thought the thick texture might not absorb well, but when you warm it up with your body heat as you apply, it absorbs nicely, leaving your skin feeling hydrated. It seems perfect for winter use.

It's incredibly sticky and thick, yet when applied to skin with toner/essence, it seems to glide on top before absorbing like water and disappearing. When used alone, it feels thick and might pill, but then it suddenly sinks in refreshingly. It's very unique - moisturizing, seemingly reduces heat temporarily, and finishes clean and light, giving your skin a sense of rest. There was absolutely no irritation for my super sensitive skin.
ConsThere's a subtle scent reminiscent of old-fashioned cold creams or massage creams, which I personally don't enjoy, so that was disappointing. The unique texture is both novel and unfamiliar, making me want to use this product longer to fully experience it.

Scent: It has a herbal aroma. Those who dislike artificial fragrances should consider this! Application: While it initially applies quite thickly, it gradually absorbs into the skin over time. You can feel your skin barrier becoming stronger. Packaging: It comes in a jar container. While I generally don't recommend jar packaging for hygiene reasons, I think it's necessary due to the cream's texture.
ConsNot recommended for those with oily skin. It might work well when applied to dry areas during the harsh winter months.

Texture: It's a real thick butter texture, but with over 65% moisture content, it's a cool, hydrating butter that doesn't feel greasy at all. The consistency is so thick that the moisture seems to cling tightly, but it's more water than oil, so it doesn't spread easily. However, wait just 5 seconds after applying, and it starts to absorb, blending perfectly with your skin for deep hydration. It's truly a unique product and texture I've never experienced before. Skin Type: It's gentle and moisturizing with extreme hydrating power, so I think even those with dry skin can use it! Personally, I don't think it would be unsuitable for any skin type. By the way, I have oily skin myself! Hydration: Simply applause-worthy! For the first time in my life, as I'm getting older, I experienced dryness around my lips (can you believe an extremely oily person getting dry patches?). In my late 20s, I finally understood what tight skin feels like, but the hydrating power of this cream is insane! The dry patches subsided, and although it's not easy to apply, it adheres well to the skin. I thought it might feel uncomfortable, but it's not sticky at all and seems to balance oil and moisture without any irritation. It's fragrance-free and the ingredients seem really gentle! When you have small bumps or rough, flaky skin, applying this soothes and improves it! My skin texture has truly changed, and I think the claim about strengthening the skin barrier is accurate! The amount is generous too! It's a shame there's no scoop or spatula to apply it, but I'm completely satisfied with the product's performance alone. Five stars, take it all! One-line summary: For the first time, a perfect cream for oily skin... ✨🫶✨
ConsThere's not really anything to complain about! I just wish it was a little easier to apply. But even though it's a bit hard to spread at first, after about 5 seconds it absorbs completely, so if you think of it as giving yourself a facial massage while applying, you'll manage to get it all on! I consider it a lucky bonus that it even helps reduce puffiness after application!

On the first day of using this product, my initial reaction was, 'What's this?' The texture was incredibly rich, almost creating an oily film. I was unsure if it was absorbing properly, but I was amazed to see it melt into my skin with the warmth of my hands. The fragrance was refreshing yet reminiscent of sweet fruits or herbs. I appreciated that the container was filled to the brim with product. It seemed to help with my deep dryness to some extent, which was nice.
ConsThe most disappointing aspect was the intense tingling sensation I experienced from day one after application. I initially wondered if this was normal, but it didn't seem right. Unfortunately, this made it difficult for me to continue using the product.
TipSince it's such a rich product, it works well when used in combination with a hydrating moisturizer!

Absorption Although its ultra-rich texture initially surprised me, it surprisingly absorbs without feeling heavy once fully applied! The finish isn't exactly powdery soft, but rather feels like a nourishing cream layer, which is perfect for nighttime use. 2. Fragrance In my opinion, any scent that's not bothersome is good! This one doesn't irritate, so I'm listing it as a positive point! 3. Moisturizing effect It's so nourishing that when I wash my face the next morning after applying it at night, it feels like there's a moisturizing film coating my skin. I love that it doesn't feel unnecessarily oily.
Cons1. Application To be honest, the application isn't great! It's extremely rich. As you can see in the photo, the cream stands firm like stiff meringue peaks. I've also included a picture showing how it doesn't spread easily on the face. Because of this, I recommend patting it in gently after spreading it a bit, rather than rubbing it in, which might cause wrinkles.
TipIn my skincare routine, I apply this cream as a final layer after using a more hydrating moisturizer. This improves its spreadability and works well for me!

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsFirst off, the packaging is super sleek and the cream itself is just as refined. It's like, how do I put it... a no-frills style? The scent is wonderfully subtle, and both the hydration and absorption are excellent. Usually, intense creams tend to be greasy and require the hassle of wiping off, but this product amazingly finishes clean without any oiliness. I think it could easily double as an eye cream too. If you're using it as an eye cream substitute, the price point makes it incredibly good value for money...! It seems like a product you can use without any fuss, and the quality of the cream is really high. Plus, it definitely has its own unique characteristics. What's truly unique is how it's rich and thick, yet absorbs super quickly without causing any irritation. It's still mind-blowing how it can be both thick and absorb to a soft finish, haha!
ConsThe downside is that it's a bit challenging to apply because of its thick consistency. If you're used to rich creams or soothing gels, you might find yourself going 'Huh...?' It's kind of like applying glue... your hand just stops moving, lol! But don't worry, the surprise is brief~ It absorbs quickly and actually feels quite firm. So, some people might love or hate the texture! Personally, what I found disappointing was that the connection between the container and the lid is a bit rough, so my fingers keep getting pinched. It's a bit hard to close the lid. The screw is also a bit stiff, but I think the main reason is that the lid's finish is slightly sharp (though this might just be the product I received). Anyway, that's a bit of a letdown.
TipMelting it with your body heat before applying isn't as easy as you might think...? So I just dot it on and pat it all over. It seems to apply much better that way. If you pat it on vigorously like you're applying foundation, it spreads evenly and seems to absorb well.

It moisturizes well, and I felt that multiple layers weren't necessary - one was enough.
ConsIt's a shame there's no spatula included, and it's difficult to apply if your hands are cold. Also, since I have oily skin, I found it essential to control the amount used.
