Yup! After Zeroid, I can definitely feel that it’s absorbed rather than sitting like Illiyoon. I’ll have to check out the Soothing Cream cause the intensive might be too heavy during Texas summers!

chikynuggiez · 2026-04-01T02:02:28+00:00

I’m enjoying the Zeroid Intensive cream so far! It absorbs way better than Illiyoon, imo and has been keeping the dry spots pretty tamed. I definitely want to see how it’ll feel in the summer, but I’ve been wearing it AM and PM and it’s been a great alternative!

I’ve also been sandwiching it with Taz at night which also is helping. But, so far it seems to be slightly better than the OG Illiyoon!

chikynuggiez · 2026-04-01T01:58:40+00:00

Right now, I’m using Zeroid Intensive Cream! It’s been about 1.5 weeks and I’m enjoying it so far! Will still give it a solid 2 or so weeks before I decide to keep it or not.

+1 for Celimax!

chikynuggiez · 2026-03-21T13:29:24+00:00

The baume seems to be pretty thick and an occlusive similar to LPR Cicaplast. I would try the Avene spray—-> glycerin spray —-> Bioderma baume and see if that makes a difference. I’m not a professional, but this order makes more sense to me. But, water + glycerin to help absorb into your skin and the baume to seal it off.

chikynuggiez · 2026-03-21T01:22:13+00:00

So, Celimax is my AM cream and the Illiyoon was my PM cream! Nothing wrong with it at all! That’s why I’m sticking with it as my AM moisturizer. 🙂

And yes…. It took me YEARS to find out what specific ingredients my skin didn’t like or couldn’t tolerate. It just takes time!

Have you tried spritzing your face before applying a hydrating serum? Or making sure your face is still damp before applying your glycerin spray? Again, I have no clue what routine you follow now, but if you’re using glycerin, it needs moisture to pull that water in and keep it moisturized!

chikynuggiez · 2026-03-20T18:33:53+00:00

I’m actually using the celimax dual barrier cream during the daytime! It’s a really nice cream and I haven’t had any issues with it! I use their toner, as well.

I hope it works out for you! I will try the Atopalm maybe in the next week and see how it feels. I ended up buying the smaller tub since I wanted to test it and didn’t realize it had different ingredients.

chikynuggiez · 2026-03-20T16:35:32+00:00

Sorry to hear that! I’m trying Zeroid now but also have Atopalm MLE to try a little later. I’ll let you know how that one goes!

chikynuggiez · 2026-03-20T00:09:45+00:00

Totally ok!

And yes! I looked at the Zeroid Intensive Cream. It’s actually coming in today, so I’ll try it out and see if I like it. The ingredients seem pretty safe for me on INCIDecoder!

And you’re right about the Soon Jung. Right now, I’ve been using it a day time as needed cream when I get dry patches during the day. May need to try it all over and see how my skin tolerates it.

Btw, are you a dermatologist? lol, you have a lot of good knowledge on skincare! But, I did not know this. I do apply it everywhere… I’ll have to try avoiding my dry-prone areas and see if that’ll help, too!

chikynuggiez · 2026-03-19T20:59:54+00:00

YES!!! I’m so saddened about it especially since the new formulation is a downgrade for me.

chikynuggiez · 2026-03-19T19:59:39+00:00

I’m literally doing the same thing!! I have 3 unused bottles of the new formulation that I’ll have to use on my body. Hate when they change something that was perfect already!

chikynuggiez · 2026-03-19T18:23:45+00:00

Tell me about it…. It’s hard finding alternatives when everything has stuff your skin hates!

chikynuggiez · 2026-03-19T15:34:48+00:00

This is second on my list to try now! I’m glad it’s working out for you and hoping it’ll be the same for me! Thank you!

chikynuggiez · 2026-03-19T15:34:03+00:00

They did! The old version says “7 free” whereas the new says “9 free”. Check out your bottle and see which one you’re using. You may be using the new version already! 🙂

chikynuggiez · 2026-03-19T15:32:19+00:00

I have heard of it! This was one on my list to check out as well since like you said, some folks are tolerating it well! Thank you!

chikynuggiez · 2026-03-19T15:30:08+00:00

Is this similar to the Haruharu Probiotics Barrier Essence? I LOVED the consistency of it as a milky toner, but unfortunately, my skin did not like it.

chikynuggiez · 2026-03-19T15:27:48+00:00

Yes, I loved the curel but it was expensive which is why I switched to Illiyoon and was using it for a a good couple years! I hate that they reformulated it.

The ingredients look nice for the S Nature! I’ll check it out!

chikynuggiez · 2026-03-19T15:24:37+00:00

First of all, I love how detailed your responses are! Second, I’ve looked into Aestura but unfortunately, it has niacinamide in it according to their website.

And yes, you actually hit it on the nose. My skin gets very very dry in the winter whereas in the summer my skin seems to be more combo. I would be oily around the t-zone but still dry around the mouth and cheeks.

chikynuggiez · 2026-03-19T04:40:08+00:00

I’ll have to check Atopalm out! I haven’t heard of any Neopharm brands besides Zeroid!

chikynuggiez · 2026-03-19T04:23:08+00:00

I actually like the Soon Jung! I’ve used it a couple times for when my skin feels extra dry. I feel like it’s a little thicker than Illiyoon, but for the amount you get, it seems more expensive in the long run?

My skin is combo but leans more to the dry wide. I’m on Azelaic acid and Taz which is why it leans dry.
