dear me beauty launched their serums several months ago, but i never bought one because i was just bought sulwhasoo kits back then. but now when i finally finished them, i could try other serums, including dear me beauty ones. they had smaller and bigger size, so it's quite convenient. however, since i was late in the game, some smaller size were sold out already. but, i still prefer them compared to avoskin because avoskin ones were always sold out. how come you sell products that are only available at their launch dates? anyway, since i need moisturizing serum for night time, i decided to try their inoceramide serum first.

| description and ingredients list on the box |
the packaging: all the serums come in white box with description in english at front and both sides, and ingredients list at the back. they seal the top part of the box with hologram sticker. they color coded the top of the box as well. red is for moisturizing one. they have other colors as well, as yellow, green, and purple. you can open the box completely just like elsheskin one so it's easier to stack for recycling. there's added description inside in english. the layout is really similar to elsheskin. the serum comes in lightbulb shape glass bottle with dropper to dispense the product. the label is the same color as the top of the box. they have smaller and bigger size, the smaller one is just 12 ml, while bigger ones are 32 ml, which are odds. usually full size serum is around 30 ml.

the scent: i think it's scentless, but since my other skincare has added fragrance, i can't be sure about this one to be completely scentless. but if it does have any fragrance in it, then it must be very subtle.

the product: i was surprised when i tried it for the first time. for a moisturizing serum, it's very runny. it's a milky white runny type serum. i use a full dropper sometimes two for my whole face and neck. the dropper is quite short so there's not much product per drop. since the serum is runny, it's easy to spread around and it doesn't take much time to be completely absorbed. looking at the ingredients list, it contains moisturizing ingredients like glycerin and ceramide. it also contains aloe vera extract and pomegranate extract.

the result: though it contains moisturizing ingredients, but when i use it, i feel it's really lightweight. i've tried other moisturizing that targeted as anti aging and most of them are richer than this serum. i don't have any problem with this serum as it's lightweight. i can use other serum or other skincare products on top of the serum without any problem. however, i don't think it'd be enough if i used a retinol serum. i might need something more aside from this one.
i have to say as a moisturizing serum, this one is really lightweight, thus i agree this is suitable for all skin types. however, if you have dry skin, you'd might need something else rather than rely on this one solely. as for me, i'd like to try their other serums as they have lots of serum variants. price wise, it's still affordable, just make sure to buy on sales to make it even cheaper if you want to buy in bulk. as this is a local brand, you can buy this from their official marketplaces or via sociolla and other online shops.
