4. Personal experience with the product
To be honest, I wasn't impressed when I first applied it. The texture is rather creamy and thick, which isn't really my thing – I prefer a lighter texture. So, I only used a small amount and I waited 2-3 minutes before applying sunscreen .
And in those very minutes, my impression completely changed. The cream absorbed perfectly, left no greasy residue, and my skin simply felt calm, cared for, and thoroughly moisturized.
What surprised me was that in the days following, I had neither redness nor blemishes – and that's quite rare for me, especially with richer creams.
And honestly, I now prefer it to the well-known Madagascar Centella Probio-Cica Enrich Cream from SKIN1004. While it's lighter, it doesn't absorb properly and doesn't leave my skin feeling as nourished.
This cream has hardly been hyped so far, but for me it's clear: a discovery that deserves more attention.
My personal rating:
-
Care effect: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
-
Texture & absorption: ⭐⭐⭐⭐½
-
Compatibility: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
-
Price-performance: ⭐⭐⭐⭐½
Why not 5/5 for price-performance?
The texture is economical to use, but the price is a bit higher than other creams with a similar effect. Nevertheless, it's a clear recommendation for anyone who values effectiveness.
