This product contains 94% moisturizing ingredients, including niacinamide, an active ingredient recognized for its anti-wrinkle and whitening effects*, as well as Centella asiatica extract, Gynostemma pentaphyllum extract, ceramide NP, and isomerized sugar. It plumps up dry, tight, and shriveled skin, protecting it from external stimuli such as dryness caused by masks. *Suppresses melanin production and prevents dark spots and freckles (quasi-drug).
Ingredients
How to use
Use during the day when you are concerned about dryness, wrinkles, or makeup breakdown, or when touching up your makeup. Extend the stick about 5mm, apply directly to the area of concern, and gently pat with your fingers to blend. If desired, apply face powder on top. When touching up your makeup, we recommend wiping away excess sweat and sebum beforehand. Because this is a soft balm, do not extend it more than 5mm. Also, be careful not to press it in too hard, as this may cause the balm to crumble. Be careful not to let the container's opening come into contact with your skin.

It has a refreshing scent and is great for restoring dry, flaky areas to their original beauty!
I bought this because I was concerned about dryness around my eyes during the day. The smooth balm is easy to use. The bergamot scent is soothing.
I previously used a similar moisturizing stick balm from a different manufacturer, and it was perfect for touching up my makeup when I was out, so I decided to buy this one. It looks like a light cream color, but when you apply it to your skin it spreads out and becomes colorless and transparent, making it easy to use.
I used to have dry skin around my nose and mouth, and after applying makeup, my skin would peel a little, which was a problem. I applied this stick balm before and after applying makeup, and whenever I felt dry, and it made the roughness less noticeable. The stick makes it easy to apply! The moment you apply it, you feel a cool, refreshing sensation. Surprisingly, it's not sticky at all. It's super moisturizing! Now, a limited-edition "Bergamot Breeze Scent" has been released for the popular stick serum containing niacinamide! So I bought this type. After a quick read of the instructions, I decided there was no difference, so I went for the scented version. There's less scent than I expected, but it's nice. I'll be buying it again.
