ONE THINGCentella Soothing Cream 3.38 Fl Oz | CICA Beta Glucan Hydrating Calming Facial Vegan Moisturizer for All, Sensitive Skin Types, Barrier Redness Irritation Relief | Korean Skin Care

other than having just the usual humectants that are in almost every product (like glycerin), I really like the other humectants they added as well - but they don’t explain them so I figured I would share:Beta Glucan, which is more effective than Hyaluronic acid, Betaine which also acts as a skin protectant, cantella extract (aka Cica) which soothes skin, calms inflammation, has wound healing properties, and Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate (Licorice extract), which also helps with inflammation, soothing, but is also good for sebum regulation. It also has the antioxidant Arganine which is especially good at managing irritation caused by using things like AHAs. It has no dimethicone so it doesn’t pill under makeup. If you have oily or extremely sensitive skin that is prone to irritation this would be perfect. For those with dry skin like me, because this cream doesn’t have a long list of ingredients and already has a good amount of humectants, I can skip using a hydrating serum and instead use two anti aging serums or two brightening serums ( I try to only use two serums max at a time.) But if my skin is flaky level dry, i put a heavy moisturizer on top of this one (or just on my dry spots) because my heavy moisturizer doesn’t have these calming ingredients .. tldr, I really like the ingredients in this!

あんまりベタつかないしちょうど良い

I've been looking for a moisturizing toner to add to my routine, since I'm forced to use gel moisturizers which aren't really strong enough for dehydrated skin (I've tried the creams, but something in them--I think maybe the stearates and oleates--causes really deep, nasty pimples to form under my skin).This wasn't it. There was no scent (and I'm pretty sensitive about that), which was a plus, and it didn't irritate my skin. It just didn't provide any hydration. This might work better for someone with oily skin, or for someone looking more for a pH balancing toner with some moisturizing features. I think it would be okay for sensitive skin. But it's no HG for me.

導入美容液、化粧水、美容液、乳液と使った後に使ってます。クリームを使わないとモチモチっとした感じで、これを使うと翌朝に肌がスベスベになってるので気に入ってます。

I have attached both the raw photo of the back of the box, as well as one that has a Papago translation of the Korean in case you are curious.I got this because I was using AHA and BHA products for the first time and I was getting irritation so I picked up a couple of cica/centella products and this is one of them. I like it. It's moisturizing. It goes on a little viscous but not so much that it feels sticky. It soaks in well and I have successfully layered other products on top of it like my SPF moisturizer in the mornings. As you can see it looks more like a cross between a gel and a cream. The scent is pretty neutral. I have not had any new breakouts since using it (I do have sensitive skin) and it has helped calm my skin as it adapts to the new actives I'm using.I will say that I am bummed that it's second ingredient is Glycerin and the third is Butylene Glycol. Glycerin is made from oil and Butylene Glycol is an alcohol and a petroleum product. The problem is... A LOT of products use these ingredients. They can be really hard to avoid, and like I said, they are ingredients number one and two so they are likely in high amounts here. I do like the cream, I'm not going to stop using it, but I did think those two ingredients in particular deserved a shout out.
