Expensive but worth it
Dr. Belmeur brand is always a part of my skin care. I have tried their different skin care and this one is what I use during my break out days. It calms down my skin and dries out the acne. My skin will clear out in 2-3 days. It has a nice consistency and does not feel sticky at all. I use it mostly at night but it is also good to use daytime. it is a bit pricey but it lasts me months anyway.
Ok
I tried this from a sample, experience with a full-sized product and more frequent use could differ.
I love Cica as an ingredient and have been using creams with it for a while. I was happy to be able to try another one. While the texture of the cream was nice, and it absorbed fine, there were really no benefits that I could see or feel to it. My skin didn't feel particularly moisturized, nor did it seem brighter or a little plumper as it did when I used any of my other products with Cica. Possibly more frequent use is required before seeing results with this cream, and it wasn't bad or cause a reaction, but it's not for me.
A little goes a long way!
I absolutely love this moisturizer!! It is super light and not greasy. It leaves you skin feeling soft and smooth. You only need a small amount to cover the face. It goes on light and feels refreshing when applying. I have noticed a huge difference with my complexion since using this cream! Definitely recommend and will be switching over

Great night cream
In the winter months I suffer from dry skin. I decided to give this a try and I was not disappointed. It's a heavier cream so I use it at night to give it time to fully absorb into the skin. The dry patches on my face are gone and my skin feels hydrated in the mornings.
Finally found the one! Got rid of my dry patches!
I've tried several moisturizers and this is the first one that took away the dry patches on my face. I rarely use it, but when I do, I notice the difference the next morning. It is a bit thicker than other creams, so I typically reserve this for overnight usage. Would definitely recommend!
broke me out
I have sensitive skin, combo in the winter and oily in summer. I was really excited to try this because the ingredients sounded perfect. This however broke me out and clogged my pores for weeks before i stopped using it. It wasn't so much direct acne, but overall congestion and my face was bumpy and red all over. This is WAY TOO RICH for oily/sensitive skin. If you have dry skin it may work.
My new night cream!
I'm not usually fussy about creams - all I need it to do is moisturize my face and either have a nice fragrance, or none at all. After a coworker insisted that I tried Dr. Belmeur's Advanced CICA Recovery cream because it did wonders for her skin, I decided to give it a shot.
My first impression was that the packaging was nice and sturdy; and it definitely has a high quality feel to it. I like that it came with a little applicator stick which was also made with a sturdy material and can be used without risk of breaking before you're done the product. Although I didn't need to use it myself, I know that some people like that its more hygienic.
The cream itself is richer than what I would use for daytime, light pink in colour, and has a lovely light fragrance. Application is smooth and it instantly makes your skin feel moisturized and healthy. Although it takes a while to fully absorb, I don't mind this quality in since I use it as a night cream. By morning, my skin has absorbed it fully and feels really soft to touch.
After a week of using this product, I realized how dry I let my skin get normally by not moisturizing daily. My skin feels a lot smoother in areas like my forehead and hyper-pigmentation leftover from acne appear to disappear faster with the use of this cream.
I definitely recommend this product to anyone!

Awesome as a night cream
It was an okay night cream and came with a scooping stick. Night Creams tend to be very hit or miss with my combination skin; too thin and it drips off my face, too thick and it feels heavy, uncomfortable. This one is the later, for someone with dry skin it'd be fantastic but my skin tend more towards oily in the summer, I'll be using this on my flaky skin in the winter.
If you're sensitive to scents, it has an extremely light scent and it didn't cause any reaction with my sensitive skin. Price wise I find that $48 is a little steep for a night cream. I have tried more expensive brands but I tend to wait til the mini packs go on sale.
I had issues trying to figure out what everything was and when to use it (under makeup or at night). There's a major language barrier issue, I like Korean/K-Beauty and usually they're good about explaining on the actual packaging how to use it but I had a name of Cica Cream and that's it to go on. I feel sorry for anyone who threw away the packaging.

Loved it!
I received this as a sample from ChickAdvisor and I really liked it.
It went on thick but it absorbed into my skin nicely and left it feeling nice and moisturized.
Lovely overnight skin cream
I received this product for free from Chick Advisor- This cream is very thick and takes a little while to soak into your skin so I used this only as an overnight cream. It goes on very smoothly and was gentle on my sensitive skin. I enjoyed using this product and it left my skin feeling moisturized. I really liked this product.
