Star Ingredients:

Narcissus (Daffodil algae) Tazetta Bulb Extract - Provides long lasting moisturisation for your skin, just like its bulb storing the hydration

Hyaluronic Acid - An antioxidant humectant that draws & holds the water content

Glycine Soja (Soybean) Oil - Non-fragrant, skin smoother, antioxidant with a few blends of fatty acids helps with skin barrier, soothes sensitivity & inflammation (refer more here)


First Impression & Experience:

It's a gel cream that provides hydration like a thick cream. It feels very lightweight & leaves no sticky residue.

It's recommended by the brand to be used on oily or acne-prone skin & also suitable to be used in hot weather/humid climate. Mamonde stated that it's a refreshing cream that locks in and provide long-lasting moisturisation.


Pros:

  • Provides hydration & moisturisation as well as a thick cream
  • Lightweight
  • Non-sticky

Cons:

  • Has medium-weight fragrance (which I don't mind but do take note if you're sensitive to it)


Final Thoughts & Conclusion:

My 2nd Mamonde product & first k-beauty brand, 2nd moisturizer brand I've used, emptied almost 5 jars so far (tried it since 2018). My first moisturiser was ^Hada Labo Light Cream & ^Hada Labo Moisturising Cream are normal creams but doesn't provide enough moisture for me throughout the day and can wear off after I sweat, ended up having dry flaky skin, in need to touch up and finishing up the product in less than 2 months.

I have dry-combination skin, living in a humid & hot weather country. This gel cream works fantastic for me because of the moisture it provides despite being a gel cream.

I've started using this gel cream before Mamonde repackage their products into these elegant packaging with the flowers' names & suitable skin type stated on them.

The promoter from the counter stated that they reformulated their products alongside with their repackaging. However, for the gel cream, both the old & new version feels and smells the same to me. It still does a great job in providing hydration & lock in the moisture for whole day. Living in a humid & hot weather country, this cream provides a long lasting moisture to the skin, like our thick cream , but doesn't feel heavy at all because of its gel consistency.

Repurchase?

4★: It's the only gel cream I've used that does the same job as the thick creams in the market. Its moisturisation is long lasting even after I've sweat. I'll always come back to this gel cream after trying out other gel creams.

1☆: The ingredient list of the cream is not very unique, would be interested to try other brand's moisturiser with the same price range/cheaper than this
