It even feels soothing when I apply it after being out in the sun. This is my all-time favorite product.
ConsThe smell... ugh... haha it's not the best. I guess that's because it's organic.

Do I need to say more? It's actually a cosmetic product with more drawbacks than advantages, but it's a good cosmetic product for me that can offset all of that. First of all, it's excellent at calming the skin. If I stop using this after using it, I always get breakouts or my skin becomes sensitive. Whether it's sunburn, fatigue-induced sensitive skin, or allergy-related issues, this has been effective and I've used it without any problems. Since Julique withdrew from Korea, I can only buy it online or at duty-free shops now. I really hope they come back. Recently, I tried switching to a different product after finishing this cream, but my skin went crazy, so I hurriedly ordered it online again. When I applied it, my skin calmed down miraculously... It's not some kind of promotion, I really want to get away from this product. Recently, as my skin has become drier, I've been mixing in a bit of oil when applying it.
ConsExcept for winter, it should only be applied at night. I'm the same way.. The cream is thick and the spreadability is not great, so even if I just apply sunscreen on top, it still feels a bit heavy. It has a texture like an ointment. In the beginning, it was just straight-up ointment. The packaging is that metal..? I don't know how to describe it, but it's like the metal used for ointments or L'Occitane hand creams, which made it seem heavier. However, a few years ago, they reformulated it and it became much creamier. Now it's usable even in the winter.. but the spreadability is still not great. If you apply a lot, it doesn't absorb well and leaves your face looking pale. The price is outrageous. Even if you buy it directly from overseas for the cheapest price, it's still around 50,000 won for the 50ml size.. This has been the case even when the Korean Sulwhasoo brand had stores in department stores. You have to use coupons and loyalty points to buy it at the duty-free shops...The 80ml size is around 80,000 won. It's in a tube format and opaque, so it's hard to tell how much you've used. No matter how much you squeeze, it feels like there's always more inside when you cut it open.. The packaging is not great. The opening gets really dirty easily (the cream also has a tendency to harden)... There must be a reason they use this type of packaging...(,,•́ω ก̀,,)
TipIt's best to use it at night, and I really recommend it for those with sensitive skin.ㅠㅠ Purchasing it at the duty-free shop is the most affordable option! If you'd like a creamier application or want to wear it during the day, I suggest mixing it with an oil or other moisturizing cream. Please use it a lot... so it can be imported back to Korea again....(,,•́ω ก̀,,)

Irritation and Breakouts: The ingredients are good, and there was no irritation or breakouts. Texture: It applies smoothly, Absorption: The absorption seems a bit slow. However, it's fine if you gently pat it in. Moisturizing: The moisture level is not overly abundant, but it's adequate. It should be a suitable moisturizer until winter, at least through autumn. Recommended Skin Type: It's for sensitive skin, but it should work well for most people. Purchase Price: I bought it locally.
ConsIt has a slightly musty scent. If you apply too much at once, it can leave a slight white cast, but it gets absorbed quickly.
TipI recommend applying it in small amounts.

The next day, the skin that had been inflamed is calmed down.
ConsThe price is a bit high compared to the amount, so I wish I could apply it to my whole face..but I only apply a small amount to the necessary areas..ㅜㅜ

I've been using this product for over 3 years, and not only have I not experienced any breakouts, but my acne has significantly improved.
ConsNone... However, it may be a bit drying if used alone during the winter.
TipI scooped out a generous amount of this product and mixed it with tea tree oil and rosehip oil, then massaged it into my U-zone. This really helped improve my U-zone acne.

The price is a bit too much for me as a student, but it's made with ingredients that are even better than that. It's a holy grail product that has given me the dewy, glowing skin I've always wanted, even though I used to have stubborn cystic acne!!! I'm an international student in Australia, and at first I was just using Korean products, but then I found that Korean products are quite expensive here, so I tried all kinds of other things. But this... this is truly a life-changing product❤️❤️❤️
ConsAt first, the absorption is not great, so you'll need to mix in 2-3 drops of facial oil when applying it.
TipUse this together with a face oil! Absolutely essential!

I've also been applying it preemptively when breakouts start to appear.
ConsThe formula is a bit heavy, so it can be burdensome to use in the summer. Those with oily skin may find it difficult to use in the mornings.

Ugh, I've just stashed it away in the corner. It seems the calendula itself doesn't suit me.
ConsThe price was also disappointing, and it didn't work for me either. I'm currently using the Atobearrier lotion, but I'm not sure if the bumps are going away. Sigh... The real culprit seems to be the DMCK ampoule I used before - my skin just doesn't seem to agree with anything.
TipI don't know if this counts as a tip, but I applied it diligently and my skin felt dry. I'm not sure how it worked for others.

I have sensitive skin, and even a little dryness can make it itchy and red, but when I apply this cream, it calms my skin.
ConsThe cream is rather thick, so you need to spread it evenly and thoroughly.

It doesn't absorb right away, so you can gently massage it in with the warmth of your hands.
ConsThe moisturizing power is lacking. I have dry skin, and this alone doesn't last very long, so I still feel dryness. It's also on the pricier side.
TipSince my skin is dry, the moisturizing power of this product is a bit weak for me, so I apply this and then follow up with the Calendula cream from the same line.
