K-SECRETCalamine Derma Secret Cream

I have been loving Korean skin care products lately and so I was thrilled to try this. Unfortunately I was left with disappointment.I have oily skin, and still get acne. Joy!My pros for this cream are:-spreads and absorbs easily-seems to work some but not enough that I’m rushing out to buy moreMy cons are unfortunately a longer list:-scent is a little too much, especially for skin care imo- tiny amount for the price- don’t see as much difference as I had hoped- I had to refer back to the listing to clarify how to use and apply the creamI liked another product I tried from KSecret so this one just isn’t for me unfortunately.

FYI: Calamine is basically zinc and iron forms mixed together. It's traditionally used to itch relief and to absorb skin weeping. This K-beauty product makes a big deal that it's in the face cream, presumably to sooth the skin and help absorb oil?The jar is typical cosmetic jar with a plastic inner lid. It smells pretty good, lightly feminine. It's definitely a cream, not a gel. It goes on thick and it sits a little longer to absorb. Afterwards, you can feel that it's there, feels like very light face sunblock. Skin is totally moisturized. I did use toner first as directed on the KSecret box.

I'm prone to dry skin/ red spots, especially in the winter. I've been using this for 2-3 weeks and have noticed that my skin has not shown any signs of dryness and feels soft and hydrated.The packaging is nice and the little jar is a standard lotion jar. Sad to see that the jar was only 75% (give or take) filled but a little bit goes a long way.The smell of this lotion is my only con. I know calamine has a very distinct smell and they tried to give it a floral scent on-top. This could be an issue for some people but I haven't had any issues and the smell dissipates after a few minutes.For dry skin in the winters this will be in the rotation going forward.

I'm so glad I found this KSECRET Calamine Derma Secret Cream! I have very oily skin and have been dealing with breakouts for a long time. I was excited to find a product that specializes in acne and oily skin. This cream contains 10,000ppm of calamine, niacinamide, and adenoside for skin soothing and hyaluronic acid for deep hydration. It's the perfect product for my skin type!I've been using it for a few weeks now and I'm so impressed with the results. My skin feels softer and more hydrated, and I've noticed a reduction in the amount of breakouts I'm getting. I use it both in the mornings and at night, as the last step in my skin care routine before applying sun protection.Overall, I highly recommend this KSECRET Calamine Derma Secret Cream if you have oily skin or normal trouble skin. It's made a huge difference in my skin and I'm very pleased with the results. Five stars!
