The texture is thick like banana cream, but it's not heavy and absorbs instantly, leaving my skin deeply hydrated - I'm truly satisfied with the moisture it provides. What I love most is the subtle, refreshing fruity scent that lifts my mood every time I use it. It's become a product I reach for naturally. Even though I have super sensitive skin, I can use it comfortably without any irritation, which makes me appreciate it even more.
ConsOn particularly sensitive days, I felt a slight tingling sensation right after the first application. However, the irritation wasn't severe, and it was understandable given that the product contains retinol-like ingredients. If you have sensitive skin, I'd recommend starting with a small amount every other day. While the dedicated spatula is hygienic, I couldn't help but think a tube type might have been more convenient.
TipFor better absorption, use this cream after evening your skin tone with toner and applying a hydrating serum. At night, apply a generous amount like a sleeping mask for smoother and more hydrated skin the next morning. During the day, apply a thin layer and don't forget to follow up with sunscreen. Like ingredients that fade dark spots, this product also contains retinol-like components that can make your skin more sensitive to sunlight!

It's not sticky. The effects are great. It absorbs well into the skin.
ConsIt seems to cause a slight tingling sensation. It feels a bit oily. There's some pilling.

It would be perfect for milder weather when you want something lightweight.
Cons✔️ Fragrance: As someone used to fragrance-free products, this one's scent feels particularly strong and artificial. ✔️ Tingling sensation: I experienced a tingling around my mouth area with each application. Interestingly, avoiding that area during application resulted in no sensitivity elsewhere. ✔️ Texture: It feels a bit heavy with a noticeable oiliness. Rather than feeling like it's fully absorbed, it seems to sit on the skin, and I woke up feeling slightly dry.

My skin type is dry. I expected it to smell like bananas since it's called a "banana pore cream," but surprisingly, it has a refreshing lemon scent. I really enjoy the invigorating fragrance when I apply it after cleansing. The yellow case and unique paper packaging caught my eye, making me want to examine it more closely. It came with a tiny spatula, but since it only scooped up a small amount, I just applied it with my hands. Even when I spread on a generous amount, it felt smooth and absorbed well without much stickiness. In the evenings, I used it like a sleeping pack, massaging it into my skin. The texture is as soft as pudding. My skin still feels moisturized in the morning. The downside is that this makes me use it quite liberally! While I haven't noticed a significant change in my pores yet, my skin texture feels more hydrated and stable, which I really like.
ConsIt was fine on normal days without any irritation, but one day when I applied it to an area with small blemishes, it stung a bit. Perhaps because of the lemon scent, I think I'll need to be careful when applying it to areas with any skin damage.

I used this product for about 2 weeks from May 18th to June 1st. Using the included spoon, I applied a small amount as the final step in my skincare routine. I focused on areas with larger pores like my nose, butterfly zone, and T-zone, then lightly spread the remaining product over the rest of my face. First off, I was pleasantly surprised by how gentle it was. Despite containing retinol, which I thought might be harsh, it applied smoothly without any irritation. It didn't cause any blemishes, stinging, or redness. After consistent use for two weeks, my skin texture improved significantly. Previously, I only had good skin days about 4 times a month, but after using this cream, my skin became smoother and softer. Additionally, I noticed a reduction in my small bumps. Interestingly, the rate at which sebum accumulated in my pores also decreased. Usually, even after cleaning my pores, they would fill up again by the next evening. However, after regularly using this cream, this process slowed down considerably. It's only been two weeks, so I can't speak to its effects on pore size and acne scars yet, but I'm very satisfied with the results I've seen so far. I recommend applying a thin layer using just a small scoop from the spoon, rather than slathering it on. Consistency in application seems to be key.
ConsIt might sting a bit if applied to open wounds, so it's best to avoid those areas. As it can cause pilling under makeup, I'd suggest using it for night care or during the day when you're not wearing makeup.

Despite the banana in its name, it wasn't a banana fragrance at all. Instead, it had a fresh, herbal aroma - a clean scent that I think anyone would appreciate. I have super sensitive skin prone to blemishes and irritation. When I first applied the Banatinol cream, I was surprised by a slight tingling sensation. I initially scooped out a generous amount with the provided spoon and slathered it on. This led to some discomfort - it felt tingly, itchy, and slippery, and didn't seem to absorb well. However, from the next day onward, I started applying smaller amounts, spreading it thinly. This approach worked much better for my skin.
ConsOn the first day of use, I experienced a stinging sensation. I thought it might be due to my sensitive skin, but it was likely because I applied too much product.
TipAfter toner, I now use the spoon to scoop out a small amount, spread it thinly, and gently pat it into my skin. The more I use it, the more I can feel my complexion improving.

It's amazing how this fragrance can turn a bad day around! The texture is a light gel-like consistency. I appreciate the hygienic seal on the lid, and the spatula is a great addition - thumbs up for that! Upon application, it absorbs well, feeling slightly sticky for about 10-15 minutes before sinking into the pores. The spreadability is excellent, and the delightful scent made me feel good right from the start. I initially thought the cream would be quite thick, but surprisingly, the ingredients were very gentle. I didn't experience any blemishes, and I think it would be particularly suitable for those with dry skin.
ConsI tend to break out when I'm under a lot of stress. Occasionally, I felt a slight tingling sensation, so on days when my skin was feeling sensitive, I had to be a bit more careful with application. I wouldn't recommend this to those who are sensitive to fragrances. Unfortunately, it didn't have any noticeable effect on my pores. The results in that area fell short of my expectations. Another downside is the amount you get for the price. While it's on the pricier side, you only get 50ml, which runs out quickly. The formula is so nice that I want to use it generously, but the small quantity makes me want to use it sparingly. As someone who tends to apply creams thickly, it felt even smaller to me. Although the texture is smooth and a little goes a long way, I wish there was an option for a larger size.
TipFor those with oily skin, I recommend applying this in the evening. While the instructions suggest using it morning, noon, and night, I personally recommend applying it generously in the evening, almost like an overnight mask. When you wake up, your skin will feel super hydrated and plump! I noticed that my makeup applied better in the morning too. After layering a serum and then applying this cream, you'll wake up to baby-soft skin the next morning. It gives a smooth feeling and transforms dull skin into a radiant complexion. My favorite way to use this cream is as a sleeping pack! After cleansing, I simply apply toner and serum or ampoule, then generously layer on this cream. The next morning, my skin texture is incredibly smooth. It's a game-changer for achieving that Inner Glow!

ConsWhile I didn't find any drawbacks for my personal use, I should mention that those with severe blemishes might experience a slight tingling sensation.
TipAlthough the packaging suggests using it morning, noon, and night, I recommend applying it in the evening. When you wake up, you'll notice increased hydration and a softer texture. It seems to transform dull skin, evening out the complexion and giving a brightened effect. It feels like it works hard overnight to improve your skin tone.

At first, I wanted to test it on the back of my hand, but the texture was so lusciously hydrating that I thought, "This is too precious to waste on a hand test!" So I went straight for applying a small amount to my face. The consistency is slightly elastic yet absorbs into the skin effortlessly, leaving a soft finish while creating a perfect moisture barrier. What I love most is how it provides deep hydration without feeling heavy, and it finishes smoothly without any stickiness, so it doesn't feel suffocating at all! It's perfect for this time of year when the weather is unpredictably dry. It tackles deep dryness while minimizing oiliness, making it ideal as a daily moisturizer. After using it, I noticed my skin texture improved, and my makeup applied much better. The best part was how it kept my skin hydrated without any flaking dead skin cells. It's gentle enough to use even on sensitive days, so I highly recommend it for anyone looking to strengthen their skincare basics.
ConsWhile I'm overall very satisfied with this product, there are a few minor drawbacks. On days when my skin was in poor condition, I occasionally felt a slight tingling sensation. I realized I needed to be more careful when using it on sensitive days. I expected less of this feeling since it's not a retinol product, but depending on the day, you might experience a bit of irritation. Another point is the amount you get for the price. At 50ml, it runs out quickly, and because the formula is so good, I found myself wanting to use it generously but having to hold back to make it last longer. Although the texture spreads easily so a little goes a long way, I wish there was a larger size option available. Lastly, a note for those sensitive to fragrances: it's not unscented and has a fresh, slightly tart scent, though it dissipates quickly. It didn't bother me, but it could be a consideration for those with fragrance sensitivities.
TipMy favorite way to use this cream is as an overnight mask! After cleansing, I simply apply toner and serum, then generously layer on this cream. The next morning, my skin texture is incredibly smooth. Even on days when my skin felt rough and dehydrated, it looks much more refined. I always use it this way when I'm concerned about dryness. Another pro tip is to apply a very thin layer before base makeup! Using just a small amount before foundation helps to moisturize and smooth the skin, allowing makeup to apply more evenly and prevent pilling. I especially recommend this method on dry days when makeup tends to flake. And for those who use retinol or exfoliating ingredients, this cream works great as a final soothing step in your evening routine. It has a fresh finish without feeling heavy, so you can comfortably layer it on. With consistent use, you'll notice your skin texture becoming softer, leading to high satisfaction!
