I'm not sure about repurchasing. It seems to be the type that cools well and moisturizes refreshingly. As I have dry skin, it was fine to use it lightly in spring and summer.
ConsSometimes, due to the pore-blocking ingredients, allergic reactions also arise. It's a bit disappointing.

I have sensitive and combination skin, so using just any product can immediately cause breakouts or make some areas oily and others dry... It's really difficult to manage my skin. So I was looking for a soothing product and learned about the Goodal Cica line through a friend's recommendation, and I'm truly impressed by this cream, so I want to share it! First of all, the texture is a gel-cream type, so it feels very refreshing. It applies moisturizing, but after absorption, it doesn't feel greasy and instead feels nicely adhered to the skin. And the subtle cica scent makes me feel calming as well. I apply it as the last step of my morning and evening skincare routine, and my skin feels comfortable and balanced all day long. The best part is the soothing effect. I often get red blemishes around my chin area before my period or when I'm stressed. But after using this cream consistently, those troubles have definitely decreased, and even when they do appear, they subside quickly. My skin texture has become smoother, and the redness has significantly improved as well. The amount is also quite generous, so the cost-effectiveness is good. A small amount spreads well over the entire face, and I can feel my skin calming down quickly, so the satisfaction level is high. I'd highly recommend this to those with sensitive and reactive skin like mine. It's also light enough to use even in the summer, so it's perfect for year-round use! Oh, and I found the effects even better when I used the same line's cica toner together. My skin barrier felt strengthened, and my previously sensitive skin was gradually becoming healthier, which made my whole skincare routine more enjoyable. In summary, the Goodal Cica Cream has nailed the three key aspects: soothing, hydrating, and lightweight feel. I have 100% repurchase intent, and I keep recommending it to my friends. If you struggle with sensitivity or blemish-prone skin, I really think you should give this a try!
ConsIt doesn't seem very hygienic since it's not a tube type!
TipBefore going to bed, apply generously and your skin will be glowing the next day when you put on makeup.

Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsThis is a moisturizing cream that is perfect for those with dry skin! It seems to be about 90% moisture, with a completely refreshing and hydrating texture. I have a lot of facial heat, but as soon as I applied it, I felt an extremely cooling sensation that made me feel great. It just perfectly quenched my skin's thirst and was absorbed quickly without leaving any residue, so I'm very satisfied. 🩵 I have sensitive skin, and products that work well for others often end up irritating my skin, depending on the condition. But this one didn't cause even a single small pimple or blemish the next day, which was really surprising to me. ㅋㅋㅋ This is an amazing moisturizing cream that I'll definitely be using even more as the summer approaches. 👏🏻🫶🏻
ConsThe only downside was that it would have been better if there was a dedicated spatula, as having to scoop it out by hand was a bit unsanitary.
TipThose with dry skin can apply a hyaluronic acid ampoule, then follow with a moisturizing cream. For added nourishment, mix in a richer, restorative cream - this helps replenish moisture without leaving the skin feeling heavy or dehydrated over time. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

ConsIt is regrettable that there are no separate spatulas and they cannot be stored separately.
TipUsing chilled cream and aloe vera together from the refrigerator provides double the cooling sensation and soothing effect.

Based on dry skin, it may be too drying to use in the evening! So I used it before putting on makeup during the day. It was good that the product has a lot of moisture so I could use it lightly! Since summer is coming soon, I prefer to use a light cream formula before makeup, and this product is just right for that. 😎Cooling I felt a slight cooling sensation right after applying it, so I could feel more soothing effects. As it can reduce skin heat, it was good to use it before makeup! 😎Soothing I can't say I saw a huge effect since I don't have many skin troubles right now, but the few blemishes I had did calm down. Anyway, I was satisfied that no new blemishes appeared after using the product! Also, when I used it as a cream pack, I could see more soothing effects. 😎Texture The formula absorbs right away after application! It also adheres well to the skin without feeling heavy on top. It has a pudding-like texture!
ConsSpatula Since there was no spatula, I had to scoop and apply it by hand, but if there was one, it would be more hygienic to use, which would be great!
TipOnce a week, mixing cream and skin to use as a cream pack is good for soothing. And if you want to use it even more refreshingly, putting it in the refrigerator for a while before use will give you an even more cooling effect!

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsThe product was received in a package consisting of a round cylindrical product and a refill. A spatula was not included, so I used the one I already had. Upon opening the product, it appears as a cream-like pudding-like form of an opaque white color (similar to an electrolyte drink), with a healthy medicinal-like fragrance. As it is a moisturizing cream, the viscosity does not seem to be very high. When applying the product with the spatula, it spreads smoothly and is quickly absorbed, leaving a soft and supple feel. Although it is described as a water-based formula, it does not seem to form a protective film on the skin, but rather adheres to it. The good absorbency of the product may make it feel like it is not being applied, but the sensation of the skin being replenished can be felt after application. As a moisturizing cream, it is naturally devoid of oiliness and is rich in hydration. Furthermore, unlike many moisturizing creams that tend to develop oiliness over time, this product maintains a soft and supple feel without the immediate appearance of excess oil. While the initial application used more product than expected, the quick absorption meant there was no residual feel on the skin, which was positive. However, it also made it difficult to gauge the appropriate amount, as the proper dosage was not easily discernible. If the proper amount is not easily determined, the product may be used up quickly, even though the quantity is not necessarily small. This product may be suitable for oily skin types in spring, summer, and fall, and for dry skin types in the summer.
ConsIf you don't have a spatula, don't throw away what you've been using before - keep using it!

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsThe skin is combination, with dry skin in spring, fall, and winter, and a small amount of oil secretion in summer. From April 15 (the day the product was received) to April 29, the product was used. During the trial period, I wrote the review not because I had to, but because I genuinely liked the product. The lightweight formula seems suitable for dry (excluding extremely dry) to oily skin types. Although I have dry skin, I prefer a lighter feel. Except for the depths of winter, I like to use a generous amount of toner, an appropriate serum (or ampoule), and a non-heavy cream in the morning, and this cream is perfect for my morning routine. What I particularly liked was that, unlike typical soothing creams, it has a slightly creamy texture, so it applies well and doesn't immediately disappear when drying my hair. It absorbs quickly too. Even when I apply a generous amount, it gets fully absorbed by the time I finish drying my hair. Of course, it's a bit lightweight for nighttime use. However, I think it will work quite well for summer evenings too!
ConsIt's just a little inconvenient that I don't have a spatula and a spoon. For now, I've brought in a spatula from another product and I'm using that.

Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsHere is a review of a product for troubled, acne-prone skin! 1. Cooling sensation The cream had a refreshing, cooling feeling as soon as I applied it! I often use modeling packs to reduce the heat in my skin, and while this wasn't as intense, it still provided a pleasant, soothing coolness that seemed to calm my skin. I think this would be great to use in the summer. 2. Spreadability The smooth texture spread evenly without any stickiness - it applied lightly and absorbed quickly, which I really liked. 3. Moisture This product is more hydrating than oily, so I could apply it multiple times without it feeling heavy or greasy. It absorbed into my skin leaving it comfortably moisturized.
ConsHowever, as I have oily and sensitive skin, I felt that this product alone was slightly lacking, as I needed to add a bit of oil. It was fine when I first applied it, but once it was absorbed, my skin felt a bit tight. Using it alone was difficult, so I always had to apply oil or cream afterwards! This product would likely be perfect for those with oily skin.
TipApply a generous amount and absorb it thoroughly, then layer with an oil or cream with a touch of oiliness! It would also be good to apply it thickly as a pack on days when you've received a lot of summer sunlight 👍

When applied, the cooling effect is definitely good, so I'm using it well! And as my skin is sensitive and acne-prone oily skin, this product has been extremely useful for me. :) The price has gone up a bit with the recent renewal, which is a bit disappointing.
ConsI suppose... if you had to write it, the capacity would be a bit lacking, wouldn't it? It would have been better if it was a bit larger!
TipBefore going to bed, applying it directly and sleeping is great because there are definitely no blemishes or splotchy red spots the next day!! And above all, I'm also using it as a makeup product that absorbs well!

It does not contain harmful ingredients like fragrances, so I was able to use it without irritation. ✅️ Application The texture is bouncy and applies smoothly without stickiness, finishing with a refreshing feel. It adheres well to the skin and applies softly. It's not heavy and applies moisturly, so it was good to use daily. ✅️ Usage Experience It helps with dryness and the moisture lasts all day, keeping my skin hydrated. There is a cooling and soothing effect, so when I use it before makeup, my makeup applies better. The glass packaging is environmentally-friendly and recyclable, and as a vegan product, it's made without animal testing, which I value highly. The product is gentle and suits my skin well, so I think I'll continue using it consistently.
ConsThere were no disappointments or troubles while using it.
TipThe cooling effect makes it particularly suitable for use during the hot summer months when sunlight is strong. You can apply it generously before bed and use it as a moisturizing pack, or mix it with a serum and apply it in the winter for an even more hydrating experience.
