M.A.C Hyper Real Skin Canvas Balm, 50ml

I tried this balm because it was included in the 2023 Advent Calendar. I'm primarily known for their makeup products, and I didn't know much about their skincare products, but their lineup isn't that extensive. When I used it with the Ceramizer that came with the Advent Calendar, it felt quite heavy, so I decided to use the Ceramizer in the morning and this balm at night (I only applied this after toner). It didn't cause any irritation or other negative effects, but I also felt like it didn't have any particularly positive aspects. It has a fairly heavy texture, so I think it's more suited to winter than summer. It's not sticky after application (slightly sticky), but it felt quite slimy when I washed my face the next morning, lol. I think it's good for those looking for protection. The packaging says it's made in Canada. I previously tried a mini sample of Clinique, but I didn't find it particularly appealing, so perhaps the Made in Japan balm is my best fit. Also, the scent... I didn't mind it, but this one... is it a peony scent? It has quite a strong scent (it's probably floral, but it has that typical overseas department store scent), so if you don't like that kind of scent, be careful. This one has a stronger scent than the Ceramizer from the same series. The scent lingers until you go to bed, so in that sense it's perfect for nighttime use.

I feel good. I have dry skin that peels off no matter what makeup I put on. This skincare product after a bath feels rich and moisturizing.

It's very moisturizing, so I use it at night. It's a cream with a loose texture that doesn't come off when you take it on your fingers. If you use it at the very end of your skincare routine, it will keep your skin moisturized until the next morning, leaving it moist and supple. What's really disappointing is that the scent is quite strong. all Hyper Real series products have a strong scent. They say they use special flowers, but the scent is so strong that it ruins the quality of the product. It's really disappointing.

I was excited about the Hyper Real series skincare!! So I bought it right away. It's advertised as a balm, but the texture is loose. It feels a little looser than a cream. But it penetrates and moisturizes perfectly. It leaves my skin moist and smooth, and even gives it a glowing look like it's full of moisture. It's not the whiteness of whitening, but the translucency of moisture, the whiteness of luminescence. However. the scent is inappropriate for skincare. It smells like a really old man. It smells like my manager's hair styling product!! It's too strong!!! Everything else is perfect. However. the scent brings me down.

I always buy MAC products from the official online store. I received a skincare sample voucher from the online store I use, so I went to a department store to get one. I liked the sample, so I purchased it a while later. It's labeled as a balm, but it's a moisturizing cream that, over time, leaves the skin feeling refreshed and non-greasy. The ingredient list contains a wide variety of ingredients. From my experience, the feel and appearance are very similar to Lancôme's cream. It's very comfortable to wear. The scent is strong, with sweet and sour fruit and floral notes. I purchased it before the price increase, so it's a Canadian product. It doesn't come with a spatula. It may be good for dry skin in the summer, but it may not be enough in the winter. This year, MAC released three skincare products, so I tried them in the summer, but then I got COVID-19. I also received a cream as a gift from Suzykirei, so I've been using the MAC skincare balm since December. Now, in the middle of winter, it feels refreshing. All in all, it's a quick and convenient three-item skincare routine, complete with just the cleansing serum and balm. I have dry skin, so I prefer something moisturizing, but this cream is refreshing for the middle of winter. It has a lovely scent and is very comfortable to use. It's packed with ingredients, including ceramides, of course. I use the balm at the end of my morning skincare routine, but I apply sunscreen before my makeup and primer, and the balm doesn't quite work with that. In the winter, I use the easy-to-use MAC skincare line. Prices have gone up, and the products are now department store prices, and the country of origin may have changed. The cleansing oil I bought in the winter was a Korean product.
