Ceramide at five thousand parts per million.
Ceramide NP at 0.5%, and the Korean panel on the carton prints the number in brackets so you can check it. Most ceramide creams run this ingredient one or two orders of magnitude lower. Behind it, glycerin at 17.49%, nearly a fifth of the tube. This is the rich one, and the carton asks you to pat it in rather than rub it.

What it does
The last step for skin that feels thin. Not a treatment and not a corrector, just the layer that puts the wall back and keeps the water on the right side of it.
Ceramide NP at 0.5%. Ceramides are part of the mortar between skin cells, and this is a serious dose of one, delivered inside a 10% premix with lecithin and glycerin.
Seventeen amino acids in the shape of skin's own natural moisturizing factor. They come to about nine parts per million between them, which is a real presence at a small dose.
Glycerin at 17.49%, shea butter at 3% and a set of light esters at 13%. Half the tube is not water, which is what makes it the rich one.
Inside the cream
The carton promises enriched ceramide, botanical extracts and an amino acid complex. All three are genuinely in there and the ingredient list proves it, but they are not the same size. The ceramide is at 5,000 parts per million. The amino acids are at nine. The botanicals are at one. It is worth knowing which is carrying the cream.
Five thousand parts per million, and the number is printed on the Korean side of the carton. This is the ingredient the product is named for and the one doing the work.
Nearly a fifth of the tube, arriving from two separate raw materials. More of it than every other named ingredient added together, and the quiet reason the cream holds water the way it does.
Shea at 3%, hydrogenated polydecene at 7.18%, a four-chain triglyceride at 6% and dimethicone at 1%. That is the occlusive half, and it is why this one feels nothing like the other two creams in the range.
Glycine leads, then serine, glutamic acid, aspartic acid and thirteen more, delivered as a named premix at a hundredth of a percent. Skin's own moisturizing factor is built from these, and here they are present rather than dominant.
The same seven-botanical complex that the All For Sensitive Serum is built around, and worth being straight about: that serum runs it at 1%, this cream runs it at one ten-thousandth of that. Centella, chamomile, licorice and the rest are here. They are not why this works.
How to use
Morning and night
Start on clean skin, gently. Skin that already feels thin does not want a scrub before this.
All For Sensitive Serum is the step before this one. The gallery calls the two of them a pair and it is right: the serum settles, the cream seals.
The carton is specific and it is unusual for a cream this rich: apply on the face and gently pat with your fingers. Rubbing is the thing reactive skin least needs.
A second press over the dry or stressed patches. It is a 100g tube; there is room to be generous.
Keep it clear of the eye area. Stop and speak to a doctor if redness, swelling or irritation appears, which the carton asks for and reactive skin makes worth repeating.
See the texture
Where it sits
GENOSYS makes three face creams and they are not variations on a theme. Half the choice is texture, so here it is plainly.
There is no efficacy study on file for this cream. What there is: a signed formula, a safety assessment, a certificate of analysis and a carton that prints its ceramide dose. The page is built on those and nothing else.
What is in it
Fifty entries, seventeen of them amino acids and seven of them the botanical complex. The four that matter by weight are at the top, where an ingredient list puts them.
Is it for you
For external use only, and keep it clear of the eye area. Stop and speak to a doctor if redness, swelling or irritation appears.

A cream is the last step. These are the products that come before it, and you can add any of them here.

Questions
Yes. Ceramides are expensive and most creams that put the word on the front use them somewhere between a hundredth and a tenth of a percent. This one is at half a percent, and the Korean panel on the carton prints it as 5,000 ppm so you are not taking our word for it.
By texture and by who it is for. This is 49.9% water with 17.5% glycerin and 3% shea butter, so it is the rich one, for sensitive and dry skin. The Hyaluron Cream is 72.4% water and light, for dehydrated skin of any type. The Problem Control Cream has no oil in it at all, for oily skin. They are three different answers, not three grades of the same one.
One part per million. The seven botanicals arrive as MultiEx BSASM Plus at 0.0001%, and we would rather tell you than let the word do work it cannot. The same complex is in the All For Sensitive Serum at 1%, which is ten thousand times more, and that is the product built around it.
Because the carton says so, and it is a deliberate instruction for a cream this rich. Skin that is reactive or feels thin does badly with friction. Press it in and let the warmth of your fingers do the spreading.
Yes, a mild lavender, at about a hundredth of a percent. Linalool and coumarin come with it. If you avoid fragrance entirely, this is not your cream and the sensitive serum is not either.
No. There is a signed formula, a safety assessment, a certificate of analysis and a dermatological test behind the "dermatologically tested" line on the carton. There is no efficacy trial, so you will not find a percentage improvement anywhere on this page.
The batch on file came back at 6.07, inside a 6.00 to 7.00 specification. Close to skin.
Put the wall back.
