The product is suitable for all skin types, especially oily and acne-prone sensitive skin. It has a lightweight texture for me, so I usually apply 2-3 layers when using it.

If you have dry, sensitive skin that gets red easily, this is a sign from the universe, hehe. I often consume mugwort when I have a headache, and now I have a mugwort-infused toner from i’m from to soothe and restore my skin. The mugwort is grown on Ganghwa Island, South Korea, with a three-year cultivation plan and cold-pressed within 24 hours to preserve its rich nutrients. I’ve been using it as a soothing step after extracting hidden pimples, and it really works well. Its ability to calm and restore is impressive. After just 5-7 days, my skin was almost completely free of redness and dark spots, and my rough skin texture improved.

I really like this product, but I'm not a fan of the small chamomile bits in the gel.

I was quite surprised when I applied the sleeping mask on my face; it gave me a really nice cooling sensation. My sleeping mask is made from chamomile extract and has a gel texture that provides anti-inflammatory properties, hydration, and skin recovery. The lightweight gel absorbs into the skin like water after massaging for a moment, making it very suitable for oily, acne-prone skin. For dry skin, you can apply two layers.

The sunscreen has only moderate oil control, which may not be ideal for very oily skin, and it can leave a slight sheen right after application. It also isn’t strongly water-resistant, so reapplication is necessary when spending time outdoors. 


The texture is lightweight and spreads easily, absorbing fairly quickly without leaving a white cast. It feels comfortable and breathable on the skin, with only a slight initial sheen that settles down after a few minutes. There’s little to no scent, which makes it pleasant to use. The sun protection performs well for daily wear and the formula stays gentle without causing irritation.

I have combination skin that leans towards dryness, so the product works really well on my skin and I haven’t had any issues with it.

Have you ever made rice water at home for beauty purposes? Hehe, about 7-8 years ago, I used to wash my face with rice water after cooking rice. But now, I've found a product made from rice extract that helps brighten my skin. It’s a toner extracted from Yeojoo rice in Korea, an island famous for its traditional rice wine that has a creamy white color and a sweet, nourishing fragrance. Just like the toner, it contains abundant nutrients that help beautify the skin, especially for dull, lackluster skin with poor elasticity. The toner has two layers: an oil layer and a rice water layer. When shaken well, you will feel the moisture it provides to your skin, so I think this product would be more suitable for dry skin than oily skin.

The product truly works well on my dry skin, and I have no complaints.

After using MARY & MAY's Intense Cream for a week, I can share my honest review.

Initially, the texture of the cream is rich yet absorbs quickly into the skin without feeling greasy. I noticed an immediate boost in hydration, leaving my skin feeling plump and smooth. After consistent use, my skin tone appeared more even, and I experienced less dryness.

One standout aspect is its gentle formulation; I didn’t experience any irritation, which can be a concern for sensitive skin. The subtle scent is pleasant but not overpowering, making it suitable for daily use.

Overall, MARY & MAY's Intense Cream has improved my skin's moisture levels and overall appearance. I would recommend it for anyone looking for an effective moisturizing cream that delivers on its promises.
