This Missha near skin smart all in one cream review is the first facial cream review I’ve done on the blog so far. The reason for this is because i haven’t been lucky with facial creams. They’re all usually just “Ok”, break me out or not moisturizing enough. There’s always something missing, forcing me to continue my search.
If you remember, this Missha near skin all in one cream was one of the items in my recently updated skincare routine for oily skin. I chose it after reading from different sources that gel and aqua-based creams were best for oily skin types. I really wanted to love it, especially because of it’s 8 in 1 description (Toner + Lotion + Essence + Moist Primer + Mask Pack + Moist Cream + Elastic Cream + Whitening Cream), sadly my search continues.

- Packaging: As with many Korean products, it came in a shiny silver pack and matching jar. Just like my reviewed rice mask wash off, it requires dipping into the jar to get the product out. Surprisingly, it came with a spatula which makes using it hygienic and the reason i gave it complete 5 stars. This packaging is also one of the most difficult ones I’ve had to photograph with natural light because of the color and light reflections.
- Ingredients: According to Cosdna, it contains more than 3 possible acne triggers, mostly 1s and 2s on a scale of 5. It also contains zinc oxide (sunscreen).
- Consistency: It’s very light and absorbs quickly. I like that it’s cooling on the skin on application and non sticky, sadly it was too light for my skin. It looks a bit yellow inside the container in this photo but it’s actually white in color.
- Effect: It wasn’t as moisturizing as i would have loved and also didn’t break me out. Also there wasn’t any visible change/improvement on my skin compared to when i didn’t use it or when i use my overnight sleeping mask. With the overnight cream, my skin looks brighter and plump. The moisturizing effect is still seen in the morning after sleeping, while i barely notice the missha all in one cream on my skin after application.
- Price and Availability: It costs $15 – $25 and available online on only some of the popular korean online stores
I’ve almost run out of this product because sometimes i use double the amount required to try and increase the moisturizing effect. Since i’m really loving the Cosrx rice overnight spa mask, I bought the Cosrx advanced snail 92 all in one cream as a replacement for the Missha (to be reviewed later).
Read: Benton snail bee high content essence review.
So far, my skin has loved products containing rice and snail slime, henceforth i will be trying more of these products.

We share the same concerns with moisturisers. The one that i’ve found that is remotely decent is Clarins Hydraphase in a tube. I don’t really do creams in jars for 2 reasons.; Once the jar is exposed to light and air, essential effective elements in the cream by way of powerful antioxidants and vitamins, amongst other formulas begin to break down when exposed to the elements. The ingredients thus become less potent, thus reducing the efficacy of it.
The second reason might just be the continuous re-inserting of our digits into the jar. No matter how clean or sanitary our fingers are, there is always the risk of contaminating it with oils that are naturally produced by the fingers.
