Living in Korea,
the climate can be quite challenging for skin,
especially with the harsh winters and humid summers.
This cream has been a lifesaver!
During the dry,
cold months,
it provides ample hydration without feeling suffocating under layers of clothing or makeup.
It really helps combat the dryness from indoor heating.
In the summer,
when it's super humid,
its lightweight, watery texture is perfect.
It doesn't feel heavy or greasy,
which is crucial when you're dealing with sweat and humidity.
It absorbs quickly,
so you don't feel like your face is melting off.
Many Korean skincare routines involve multiple layers,
and this cream layers beautifully without pilling or feeling too much.
It's also great for calming skin that might be stressed from fine dust (미세먼지) or long days wearing masks.
The soothing properties are definitely noticeable.
It's a versatile cream that truly adapts to the diverse Korean climate,
making it a year-round essential.
To maximize the benefits of the Primera Alpine Berry Watery Cream,
here are some products I love pairing it with:
1.
Primera Miracle Seed Essence: This essence is a fantastic first step after cleansing.
It preps your skin to better absorb subsequent products and boosts hydration,
creating a perfect base for the cream.
It's like giving your skin a drink before the main course!
2.
A hydrating serum (e.g.,
a Hyaluronic Acid serum): If your skin is on the drier side or you're looking for an extra hydration boost,
layering a hyaluronic acid serum underneath the Alpine Berry Watery Cream works wonders.
It locks in that extra moisture.
3.
A gentle exfoliating toner: Using a mild AHA/BHA toner a few times a week can help remove dead skin cells,
allowing the cream's ingredients to penetrate more effectively.
Just make sure it's not too harsh!
4.
Sunscreen: Always,
always finish your morning routine with a good SPF!
The Alpine Berry Watery Cream provides protection with its antioxidants,
but nothing beats a dedicated sunscreen for UV defense.
It layers perfectly under most sunscreens without pilling.
5.
Primera Clean Up Peeling Gel: For a deeper cleanse and exfoliation once or twice a week,
this peeling gel can help clear the way for the cream to work its magic even better.
It leaves your skin feeling incredibly smooth.
