If you’re as obsessed with Korean skincare products as we are, the cult-fave Illiyoon Ceramide Ato Concentrate Cream is really going to rock your world. It’s one of Korea’s best-kept secrets and it finally arrived in the the US. It’s already selling out though thanks to an affordable price point and ingredients that really work.
And if you’re wondering what ceramide skincare is anyway, this explainer should help.
What is Illiyoon Ceramide Ato Concentrate Cream?
This innovative and creamy formula features plant-based ceramides that are similar to those of human skin to reinforce the skin’s barrier. This means it forms a lightweight, invisible shield against pollutants, damage and moisture loss.
It’s a brilliant option for facial skin in cold, dry months and a clever layering formula to wear over your favorite serums. We love it for sealing in hydration and adding weightless protection to just about anywhere on the body (and no, it won’t clog pores).
It’s safe for sensitive skin, damaged skin and is seven-free so you don’t have to stress about the most harmful chemicals getting into your pores. We also think it makes one of the best Libra gifts if you’re into astrology, because it balances the skin and offers just the right touch of luxe charm.
Illiyoon is also the best-selling barrier cream in Korea right now and is surprisingly affordable in the US. We found it under $25 here.
The best Illiyoon Ceramide Ato Concentrate Cream reviews
“So I have probably purchased this moisturizer nine, maybe 10 times. It is my absolute favorite facial moisturizer,” says verified purchaser, Katie Henes. “It’s thick but spreads easily and sinks into the skin. There is no fragrance.”
She continues, “The ingredients are good and it’s a giant bottle. I’ve never had breakouts or any negative effects from using this and I have very sensitive skin. This is an all-around amazing moisturizer.”
Maritza Lemus, another verified purchaser writes, “I love the thickness of this cream. It’s my second repurchase and it’s so good for my dry skin, not sticky at all.”
“I’m on 0.04% tretinoin now and my Cerave lotion wasn’t enough so I decided to try this after hearing YouTuber Kelly Driscoll talk about it,” writes verified purchaser, Chris and Amber.
“It’s thick and moisturizing so I only like using at night. I have slightly oily skin, but now with tret it’s normal. This is a great price since most Asian moisturizers come in tiny amounts, but for this price you’re getting almost seven ounces. No smell and nothing is irritating.”
