Round Lab 1025 DOKDO CREAM 80ml

• Immediately: Skin feels instantly hydrated, soothed, and comfortable. Any feeling of tightness or dryness is relieved.
• Within 2-4 weeks: With consistent daily use, you should notice a significant reduction in flakiness and dry patches. Your skin will feel softer and appear more balanced. Redness and sensitivity may start to decrease as the skin barrier begins to repair itself.
• After 8+ weeks: Your skin's moisture barrier is noticeably stronger and more resilient. The skin is less prone to irritation from environmental factors, and its overall health, texture, and hydration levels are visibly improved.

Myth: "My skin is oily/I live in a humid place like Mauritius, so I should skip moisturiser."

Reality: Oily and combination skin types, especially in humid climates, still need hydration. Skipping moisturiser can cause dehydration, prompting your skin to produce even more oil to compensate. The key is choosing the right texture. The Dokdo Cream has a balanced, non-greasy formula that provides essential moisture to keep oil production in check and maintain a healthy skin barrier without feeling heavy.

The Round Lab 1025 Dokdo Cream is designed to be gentle and is highly compatible with most skincare ingredients, making it an excellent buffer in routines with strong actives.

• ✅ Works Well With:
  • Exfoliating Acids (AHAs, BHAs, PHAs): Use this cream after your acid toner or serum to soothe the skin and replenish moisture, helping to prevent over-exfoliation and irritation.
  • Retinoids (Retinol, Retinal): An ideal moisturiser to use with retinoids. You can apply it after your retinoid to combat dryness or use the "sandwich method" (moisturiser -> retinoid -> moisturiser) to buffer potential irritation.
  • Vitamin C: Perfect to use in the same routine. Apply your Vitamin C serum in the morning, wait a minute, and then apply Dokdo Cream before your sunscreen.
  • Niacinamide, Hyaluronic Acid, Peptides: Layers beautifully with these ingredients to enhance hydration, brightening, and anti-aging benefits.
• ⚠️ Use Carefully With:
  • Heavy Facial Oils: If you use facial oils, apply the Dokdo Cream first and then pat a few drops of oil on top as the final step at night. Applying oil before the cream may hinder the cream's absorption.

• ✔️ Excellent for:
  • Dry Skin: Provides deep, lasting hydration and helps repair the lipid barrier to prevent moisture loss.
  • Sensitive Skin: The fragrance-free, essential oil-free formula with soothing ingredients like Panthenol and Allantoin makes it ideal for calming irritation and redness.
  • Normal Skin: A perfect daily moisturiser to maintain balance and barrier health.
• ✔️ Good for:
  • Combination Skin: Effectively hydrates dry cheek areas without making the T-zone feel overly greasy. Best used at night or in moderation during the day.
• ⚠️ Use with Caution:
  • Very Oily Skin: While non-comedogenic, the rich texture might feel a bit heavy for very oily skin types, especially during Mauritius' humid summer days. It is better suited as a night cream for this skin type.

• Dehydration & Dryness: Deeply replenishes the skin's water and lipid content to relieve tightness and flakiness.
• Damaged Skin Barrier: Formulated with three types of Ceramides to help rebuild and strengthen the skin's protective barrier, making it less susceptible to external irritants.
• Sensitivity & Redness: Contains Panthenol and Allantoin, which work to calm inflammation, reduce redness, and soothe irritated skin.
• Rough Skin Texture: By providing intense moisture and supporting barrier health, it helps to smooth rough patches and create a softer skin surface.

• Fragrance: This product is fragrance-free and does not contain any added artificial fragrances or essential oils, making it an excellent choice for sensitive skin.
• Scent Profile: It has a neutral, scentless profile.
• EU Allergens: None of the 26 standard EU cosmetic allergens are present in the formula.

• For external use only.
• Discontinue use and consult a doctor if irritation or rash occurs.
• Keep out of reach of children.
• Avoid direct contact with eyes. If contact occurs, rinse thoroughly with water.
• Patch Testing: We recommend applying a small, pea-sized amount of the cream to a discreet area of skin (such as behind the ear or on the inner jawline) for 24-48 hours before applying to your entire face. This helps to ensure your skin is compatible with the formula.

• Texture: A soft, dense, balm-like cream. It feels rich upon application but is not overly thick or heavy.
• Feel on Skin: It melts smoothly into the skin upon application, providing a comforting and moisturising sensation without feeling greasy or sticky.
• Finish: Dries down to a natural, slightly dewy finish that leaves the skin looking and feeling soft and hydrated.
• pH Level: The formula is low-pH to align with the skin's natural acid mantle, helping to maintain a healthy barrier.

• Issue: The cream feels a bit heavy for my skin type.
  • Solution: You may be using too much. A small, pea-sized amount is sufficient. Try using it only as a night cream where the richer texture can work overnight. You can also apply it to slightly damp skin to help it spread more thinly and absorb better.
• Issue: My makeup is pilling or not sitting well on top of the cream.
  • Solution: This usually happens if you apply makeup too soon. Wait at least 2-3 minutes after applying the cream to allow it to fully absorb before moving on to sunscreen and makeup. Using a smaller amount of cream can also help.

In Mauritius's hot and humid climate, a cream's texture is key. Here’s how to best use the Dokdo Cream:

• For Dry or Dehydrated Skin: This cream is an excellent choice for both AM and PM use. It will provide the necessary moisture to combat dryness from sun, salt water, and air-conditioning.
• For Normal to Combination Skin: It works beautifully as a night cream to repair and hydrate the skin overnight. During the day, you might find it suitable if you work in an air-conditioned office. For outdoor activities in peak humidity, a pea-sized amount is all you need.
• For Oily Skin: Best reserved for nighttime use. The nourishing formula can help balance sebum production overnight without feeling suffocating. During the day, you may prefer a lighter gel-based moisturiser.
• Post-Beach/Sun Care: This is a perfect after-sun soother. Its calming and barrier-repairing ingredients help to relieve redness and rehydrate skin that has been exposed to sun, salt, and wind.

Aggregated sentiment from real users on platforms like Reddit and YesStyle.

• On Texture and Absorption: "It has a thick, balm-like texture but it's not heavy at all. It absorbs so well and doesn't leave my combination skin feeling greasy, just very moisturized and soft." – Reddit, r/AsianBeauty (2024-05)

• On Soothing and Barrier Repair: "My skin barrier was destroyed from using tretinoin too frequently. This Dokdo cream was a lifesaver. It calmed the redness and stopped the stinging within a couple of days. A true holy grail for sensitive skin." – YesStyle review (2024-08)

• For Oily Skin Types: "As someone with oily skin, I was hesitant to try a 'cream'. I use this at night only, and I wake up with balanced, not greasy, skin. It's surprisingly light for how moisturizing it is." – Reddit, r/AsianBeauty (2024-03)

• A Fair Caveat: "It's a fantastic moisturizer, but if you're looking for strong anti-aging actives like retinol or peptides, this doesn't have them. It's purely for hydration and barrier support, which it does perfectly." – Amazon customer review (2024-06)

Founded in 2017, Round Lab has quickly become one of South Korea's most beloved skincare brands. Their philosophy is simple: create gentle, effective, and clean skincare using fresh, high-quality raw materials sourced from the Korean peninsula. From the mineral-rich deep sea water of Dokdo to the Birch Tree sap of Inje, Round Lab is dedicated to providing skin relief and vitality through nature-derived ingredients that you can trust.

• Ceramides: Natural lipids (fats) that are a major component of the skin's outer layer. They act like the "mortar" between skin cells, helping to hold them together to form a protective barrier that retains moisture and keeps pollutants out.
• Panthenol (Pro-Vitamin B5): A humectant that attracts and holds water, improving skin hydration, elasticity, and smooth appearance. It also has anti-inflammatory properties that help soothe irritated skin.
• Allantoin: A compound known for its soothing, healing, and moisturizing properties. It helps to calm irritated skin and stimulate the growth of healthy tissue.
• Deep Sea Water: Water sourced from deep below the ocean's surface. It is naturally purified and rich in minerals like magnesium, calcium, and potassium, which are beneficial for maintaining the skin's moisture balance.
• TEWL (Transepidermal Water Loss): The process of water evaporating from the skin's surface. A high TEWL rate is a sign of a damaged skin barrier.

1. Is the Dokdo Cream non-comedogenic (won't clog pores)?

Yes, it is formulated to be non-comedogenic. While it contains Shea Butter and some plant oils, they are in a balanced formula that is generally well-tolerated by most skin types, including combination. However, if you are extremely prone to clogged pores, it's always best to patch test.

2. Can I use this cream if I have rosacea or eczema?

Many users with rosacea and eczema have found this cream to be very soothing and effective due to its simple, fragrance-free formula and barrier-repairing ingredients. The ceramides, panthenol, and allantoin help to calm inflammation and strengthen the skin. However, we always recommend consulting with your dermatologist for medical conditions.

3. What is the difference between this and the Dokdo Lotion?

The Dokdo Cream has a richer, more balm-like texture and provides more intensive moisture and occlusion. The Dokdo Lotion is much lighter, with a fluid, milky texture. The lotion is generally better for oily skin types or for daytime use in high humidity, while the cream is better for dry skin or as a night cream for normal/combo skin.

• Best For: Individuals with normal to dry, sensitive, or dehydrated skin seeking a reliable daily moisturiser for barrier repair and lasting hydration.
• Key Benefits:
  • Provides intense, long-lasting moisture without a greasy feel.
  • Soothes irritation and reduces redness effectively.
  • Strengthens the skin barrier with a blend of three ceramides.
• Keep in Mind:
  • It is primarily a moisturising and soothing cream, not an active treatment for concerns like wrinkles or severe hyperpigmentation.
  • May be too rich for very oily skin types for daytime use in a humid climate.
