I have been using this for almost a couple of months now. The first one I used is the gel version, but I figured I'll try this cream and I'm glad I did. Compared to the gel, my skin absorbs this faster. Even if my skin is oily, ILLIYOON CERAMIDE ATO CONCENTRATE CREAM is comfortable to wear.
I use this fragrance-free, thick cream at night. I use it before retinoid during retinoid nights which I always look forward to (twice a week!). I'm pretty sure it is thanks to this cream that I have not experienced irritation with retinoid because this and the cleanser are the only ones I use in my retinoid nights. (Sometimes I use Vanicream, but I get bored. So I alternate that with this.) The morning after retinoid night I massage my face with a centella essence, so I think that helped, too.
I am also quite certain this cream healed my forehead which has been feeling tight and even numb because I abused it with a chemical exfoliant. Sorry, forehead! This cream has ceramide which, according to experts, helps in healing broken skin barriers. Also, its ceramide is ~not like other ceramide~. It contains CERAMIDE SKIN COMPLEX™, "a patented ingredient jointly developed by Amorepacific and AESTURA, using the world's first Ceramide encapsulation technology." *finger-snap + duck-face combo*
