Any recommendations for a good light weight moisturizer for summer? I finished my cosrx 92 all in one cream recently. I loved it but for summers in the hot and humid climate of my city even that is heavy.
I have combination/oily skin

Suggestions for summer moisturizer

Although it is claimed to be moisturizing, I didn't feel like it had any noticeable moisturizing effects. I don't mind that at all though because I always use a moisturizer after using this. 

The CICA Tea Tree AHA PHA Blemish Toner is gentle and exfoliates well. Although it doesn't have any added fragrance, it does have a distinct fresh cica and tea tree smell that I really like. It also has glycerine and 2% niacinamide both of which are great for the skin. It does help with controlling sebum production. It has a low pH of 4~5 and feels very calming and refreshing. 

I do feel like my bottle had a bigger part of the cream layer than other pictures and videos that I have seen online. Because of this it felt even more moisturizing to me. I don't think I would be able to use this during the day time, especially in summers since I have combination/oily skin type. I am sure dry skin people would totally love this one. 

The Blackberry Complex Cream Essence contains blackberry extract, blue lotus water, jojoba seed oil, centella asiatica extract and ceramides. It has two layers, the lower part which is purple in color is the essence layer and the milky part on top is the cream layer. The bottle is to be shaken to mix them both before use.

I find this essence to be immensely hydrating and moisturizing. It feels calming and soothing and I really enjoy using it.

The only con would be that the cost is on the steeper side, you get 14 gms of product which gets exhausted fairly quickly and I'm sure I'll be finishing the stick very soon.

I received this product for free from Picky and THANK YOU FARMER in exchange for my honest review. 

This is my very first sun stick and I am honestly so so impressed. It has SPF 50+ and PA ++++ which is what I always prefer to use. This has a velvet/satin type texture and literally feels like you haven't applied anything at all. This is truly the definition of invisible sunscreen. For anyone out there that hates reapplying sunscreen because it is messy, sticky or time consuming, please do give this a try. I always use this for reapplication no matter which sunscreen I use at the start of the day.

It takes less than a minute to apply this all over my face and neck and then I can continue going about my day. If you have heavy makeup on, make sure to blot your face and use a compact or loose powder a few minutes before reapplying this sunscreen and wipe off the sunstick after application. It is also super easy to reapply this while travelling.

It does have a mild floral fragrance which didn't bother me but do keep that in mind if you are sensitive to it.


The only negative is that since they use only natural preservatives, the product needs to be used within 6 months of opening the pack. It can go bad fairly quick compared to products from other brands

The major ingredients it has are Galactomyces Ferment Filtrate and Bifida Ferment Lysate which are great to boost skin elasticity and keep the barrier healthy. 
It also has Ceramides and Peptides which further help sooth and calm your skin and repair compromised skin barrier. Over the past few months I have been trying out A LOT of new skincare products but this has been my constant toner / essence. I have also started using at home chemical peels and I believe this has played a role in maintaining my skin health and all these different products and peels haven't damaged my skin because I have been supplementing it with good ingredients via this essence. 
This also has Panthenol and Allantoin which are great for hydration and moisturization. It also claims to help reduce the appearance of fine lines with continued use. 
The texture is like a cloudy liquid that is super light and gets absorbed quickly leaving a skin like feel. Once it dries down it doesn't feel like you've applied anything at all.
It is fragrance free and I would highly recommend this for all skin types. 

I honestly have nothing bad to say about this product. Maybe they could come up with a bigger size for those who love it and want to invest in a bigger pack ❣️

This is truly an amazing product. It has a slippery gel texture but gets absorbed into the skin beautifully without leaving it sticky or oily. Skin feels hydrated and plump. In the summers oily skin people can totally use this in the day time and skip a moisturizer and directly go for an SPF. I have tried other brands snail products as well which I liked but nothing beats Cosrx in terms of their formulations for snail mucin products. It's a 10/10 for me
