What it is
This one-stop product replenishes vitamins and minerals often lacking in modern women's skin. It can be used as a night cream, nourishing pack, or primer. With continued use, it addresses uneven skin tone, redness, and unevenness, resulting in smooth, even skin. This waterless balm is made with 100% active ingredients, carefully selected for their purity, refinement, and quality. Apply generously at night and sleep, and wake up with smooth, refined skin. The balm's firm texture indicates the absence of surfactants. When applied to your fingers, it spreads smoothly and protects the skin. This delicate product is best used within 2-3 months of opening. This new multi-purpose balm can be used as a night cream to treat rough skin at night and as a primer in the morning to protect against various harmful substances such as PM2.5 and pollen. This 100% active ingredient balm, made without a single drop of water, strengthens the skin's barrier function and natural defenses. This one product replenishes the vitamins and minerals that modern women's skin often lacks. This gentle, 7-free formula is free of colorants, fragrances, preservatives, antibacterial agents, alcohol, surfactants, and UV absorbers, yet still provides SPF19/PA+++. *Because it's made using a special process that doesn't use a single drop of water, you may notice some oiliness or unevenness on the surface of the balm upon opening or use, but this does not affect the quality. If you're concerned about the surface, we recommend mixing it with the included spatula before use. *Packaging may change without notice.

Knead the mixture several times with the pads of your fingers to soften it. Apply it to several areas of your face using a dab-dab stamping motion. Spread it over your entire face, including around your eyes. First, spread one spatula-sized amount evenly over your entire face, then apply another scoop to areas of concern.

It has a firm texture, but when you spread it, it turns completely white, and after a day it seems to blend in and calm sensitive skin.
I'd seen this product recommended on social media as a skincare talisman, and it had been on my radar for a while. I couldn't find it in stores, so I hesitated for a long time about what to do, but then I decided to buy it because my skin was starting to feel dry. I use it at the end of my nighttime skincare routine, sealing in my dry skin. I'd been using Sofina's Golden Night cream, but this one is less sticky than Sofina. After using it for a week, I noticed that my skin texture seemed somehow improved. The finish of my makeup powder application was different than usual—not exactly radiant, but it did feel like my skin was toned. When I apply this cream slowly, spreading it over my skin after moisturizing, it feels like it seals in my toner and serum, enhancing their effectiveness. It's great for this dry season, of course, but since it's less sticky, I'd like to try it in the summer as well.
My skin has been getting rough recently, so I bought this. It feels like a film has formed on it, and it doesn't sting at all. I'm glad I bought it. This is perfect for when your skin gets rough!
Its thick texture protects sensitive skin!
As soon as I returned to the Pacific coast from the Sea of Japan coast where I spent New Year's, my face started peeling due to dryness... (tears) I tried moisturizing my skin thoroughly for about a week, but it didn't help at all, so I bought this as a last resort. It has a sticky texture just as rumored! It brightens my skin tone to a pure white! But what a relief...!! After applying it thoroughly and sleeping for three days, the peeling subsided considerably, and after a week, my skin texture was smooth and my makeup went on better! It's truly a protective charm! With pollen season approaching, I wanted a tinted balm to keep my skin protected during the day as well.
