I love the refreshing grapefruit scent! However, it didn't moisturize my hands... When I spread it on my hands, it didn't feel sticky, but rather felt like I'd wet them with water. It might be a good way to change your mood in the summer.

It leaves your skin feeling moisturized. This cream spreads easily, so a small amount is enough to moisturize, and it's light and not sticky, so it's easy to touch your phone with. I love it. It penetrates quickly, so it provides thorough moisturizing care, and I recommend it!
I bought it because it was cheap at just under 400 yen. It has a strong grapefruit scent, so I highly recommend it for grapefruit lovers! It's a translucent cream, and it becomes watery when you spread it, so it's not very moisturizing. However, if you enjoy the scent, I recommend it!
It smells sooooo good! It's so delicious! What can I say? Is it a sherbet gel? Or a sherbet cream? Maybe it's because my hands are so dry, but it absorbs super quickly!! It's smooth and not sticky. I work without oil, so this is really helpful.
