This also works for me

I honestly thought it was thick, and rich mochi type cream when I ordered this product. The naming is "skin barrier recovery cream" so I really thought a cream like Aestura or Physiogel which I love to use during the dry time. Anyhow, long story short, it's not what it sounds like, it's a light weight gel type cream, which I believe many oily skinned audiences will love. Interestingly, I like it as well so let's talk about it.Ingredients:As many other Korean products, the ingredients are very clean, and the famous duo active ingredients - niacinamide (for brightening) and adenosine (for wrinkle.) It also contains some other additional - quasi active ingredietns like allantoin, mannitol and centella asiatica extract, and hyaluronic acid. So if you ask me whether this is clean or not, then the answer is definitely yes. Yet, it's not amazingly impressive formula as well. Many Korean companies use very high concentration of active ingredients or improved active ingredients (like acetylated hyaluronic acid copolymers or etc). So I like the cleanness but still, it's not so impressive either.Exture:It's watery, definitely watery and light weight. Honestly, I don't like the texture too much but I think if you have oily skin, you will love it. Also, When you need to maintain your make up very long for whatever reason on a hot or humid day, this will provide very matte base so that makeup will be fixated like a magic. So I gave 5 star, even if it is kind of dry to me.Effectiveness:It has slightly cooling sensation, and it's very light weight. I had dry acne one with skin burn (after the beach) then it calmed down my skin in a relatively short time. So if you need some recovery type of cream but you don't like a drop of oiliness in your product, I think this is for you.

This was very easy to apply and did not have a greasy feeling to it or leave my skin feeling tacky. It feels like a water cream in application and I definitely noticed a pickup in the look of my face after using this for a couple weeks consistently. It really felt moisturizing and that feeling continued into the morning after applying this the night before.I didn't really notice much of a scent which is always a plus in my book for face creams. I don't need my face smelling like a rose garden before bed!

I like this because it isn't greasy and I don't wake up with blurry eyes. For some reason, some creams I try seem to need to stay far from my eyes or I end up feeling like my eyes have cream in them in the morning. I barely touch my crows feet and don't put anything directly around my eyes, but still, it is there. This stays where I put it. It really has minimal scent, which I like, and feels nice. Pretty much all creams seem to help, but it is always better if they don't end up in my eyes when I moisturize near my eyes.

The texture of this is more light and gel-like than the cream it is described as, but it works well and provides a good amount of moisture! Application is smooth and this absorbs into skin without leaving it feeling tacky or greasy. Good addition to my routine!

I had my girlfriend try this and she did not want pictures posted so I am sorry about that. I did take pictures and the effect of this creme was definitely noticeable. She put it on her face, neck, and decollete before bed. It has been a few months and she and I can definitely see a difference in her skin! It's moisturized, fine lines have vanished and her skin looks healthier and smooth. She will continue using this product forever, that is for sure.

This is a gel moisturizer which seems to have good ingredients. It definitely gives my skin the moisture it needs, I’ve been using for a few days. My only complaint is that it takes awhile to dry on my face so I can put my tinted sunscreen on next. I end up blotting it with a tissue. Not a big deal, I’ll continue using.

Got this for wife and she says it's great for her oily skin. The texture is thick but it's like a water gel based cream that goes on smooth. It does what she wants it to do which is to keep her face moisturized after washing her face. She uses it as the initial moisturizer then another sealing type moisturizer on top. The only downside to this is for some reason, which each subsequent use after the initial one. There are these dry bits/random grainy like tiny blobs that she can feel when she uses it. It doesn't show up on her face because they're not big, but she can feel it between her fingers. And for a face cream, that's not something that's expected straight out of a box. Maybe she got a bad batch? But just noting it for other people to keep an eye out for it.
