About COSRX Oil-Free Ultra-Moisturizing Lotion

COSRX Oil-Free Ultra-Moisturizing Lotion is the perfect lightweight moisturizer to maintain balanced and hydrated skin. Instead of water, the star ingredient is birch sap, which makes up 70% of the ingredients. Birch sap is loaded with vitamins and antioxidants that penetrate deep into the skin adding nourishment while treating irritation.

Rapid absorption and non-greasy finish make this product an everyday staple in your skincare routine. While great for all skin types, this lotion is excellent for boosting hydration for irritated or acne-prone skin.

Features:

1. Intensely hydrating daily moisturizer recommended for both day and night

2. Contains 70% willow bark water that calms and treats irritated skin

3. Non-greasy, lightweight texture is great for oily and combination skin

4. Pump bottle keeps the product hygiene and is easy to use

5. This product is paraben-free, hypoallergenic and dermatologist tested

6. COSRX products are cruelty-free

Packaging: This moisturizer comes in a translucent matte glass bottle. The bottle has a plastic pump dispenser. A clear plastic cap protects the dispenser. The packaging looks quite chic as it sits there in your vanity. However, it is not a good packaging for travel purposes due to glass packaging. The packaging is fuss-free and minimalistic.

Except for a few words in Korean, the label has no other information about the product. You have to refer to the brand website if you are interested in the detailed ingredients list.COSRX Oil-Free Ultra-Moisturizing Lotion Review

Color & Consistency: COSRX Oil-Free Ultra-Moisturizing Lotion is a medium thick colorless moisturizer. It feels a little thick on the skin for a few seconds. As you massage it a little bit, it blends without any sticky residue. The consistency is neither too light nor too thick.

This is not something a dry skin person will use in winter but the texture is excellent for oily to combination skin. The main ingredient of this lotion is Birch Sap. It is high in natural alpha hydroxy acids. That is why, this COSRX moisturizer is great for all those having frequent pimple bouts. 

Fragrance: The COSRX lotion has faint herbal fragrance. The fragrance does not bother my sensitive nose. It does not linger long. The smell will disappear completely within 10-15 seconds.

Quantity & Price: COSRX Oil-Free Ultra-Moisturizing Lotion (with Birch Sap) is priced at Rs.1650 for 100ml. COSRX is not quite a pocket friendly brand. Most of their products are in the 1500 range. The pocket pinch might be a bit high for some but the quality is definitely excellent. You get what you pay for in this moisturizer.

That being said, I must also add, you’ll need just half a pump product for each use if your skin is oily to combination type. One bottle of moisturizer will last you at least 3 months if you are applying it daily.

My Overall Thoughts

Before starting COSRX Oil-Free Ultra-Moisturizing Lotion (with Birch Sap) I used to use a 2% salicylic acid cleanser, a 10% niacinamide serum and a basic moisturizer. This COSRX moisturizer has naturally sourced skin care acids. Using skin peeling ingredient in both cleanser and moisturizer was making my skin dry. I decided to trade the salicylic acid cleanser for a basic soap free gel cleanser. Now, the cleanser-serum-moisturizer trio is working fine for my skin. 

I like to apply some serum after cleansing my face and in the last step I apply this COSRX moisturizer. This 70% Birch Sap enriched moisturizer is not watery light. It stays on your skin and prevents dryness. In the beginning my skin used to tingle a bit after application but over time my skin adjusted with the actives in this.

This is a peeling moisturizer. It not only nourishes my skin but also helps to fade pimple marks. I generally avoid applying moisturizers over active acne because oil-based products tend to aggravate pimple inflammation. I didn’t face any such issues with this moisturizer. I am really happy that I started using this moisturizer. I can clearly see why so many oily-combination skin people love this.
