Primary Raw Seoul, a natural cosmetics brand promoting use of ‘primary’ and ‘raw’ ingredients straight from nature, has launched its first Do You Cream (‘Do You’ means ‘Soy Milk’ in Korean). It's enriched with soy bean extracts, soy milk ferments, rice water, galactomyces and other grain extracts. This Soy Milk Facial Cream is deeply hydrating, gentle in formula and brightens up uneven, dull complexion for a clearer and healthier glow. It's stated that it's suitable for all skin types.
Fermentation skincare is hot right now, so I was very intrigued when I saw how many fermented extracts were in this cream. There are also a few other interesting ingredients of note, namely niacinamide (great for skin brightening!) and snail secretion filtrate (snail goo). I'm relatively inexperienced in the ways of snail goo, but a lot of people swear by it as a nourishing and repairing skincare ingredient.
On first glance, the texture of the cream kind of reminds me of yogurt. But while it looks very creamy, the texture actually feels more gel-like to me. Like school glue but not as sticky. Thankfully it doesn't smell like glue—the scent is vaguely reminiscent of fresh soy milk (sweet and earthy), but a touch more floral. It's pleasant without being totally overpowering.
PACKAGING
I'm loving the pretty packaging of the product. There is Korean as well as English descriptions on it. The jar is pretty heavy since it's made of glass, don't think it's useful to travel with it, but it's awesome that you can re-use the jar when you're done with this product. The emptied bottle can be utilized as a candle holder, candy jar or for decorative and practical use.

HOW TO USE
Use the pretty spatula that you see below and put a bit of product on your finger. Apply evenly over clean face. I usually just use this as the last step of my skincare routine, since the cream is slightly thick compared to my other skincare products. Gently pat it in until it's fully absorbed.

SCENT AND TEXTURE
The scent is pleasant, it smells a bit like a milky soap. This scent fades away when it's on the face. The consistency of the cream is a bit in between light and medium. It leaves a fresh feeling when you apply it. It's a tiny bit sticky, but this sticky feeling will go away when the product is fully absorbed. Unfortunately, it won't absorb at once, so you got to wait for a few minutes or so until it's fully absorbed.
FINAL THOUGHTS
I'm really amazed by the pretty packaging and it's great that you can re-use the jar for other purposes. On the packaging it's stated that it's suitable for all skin types. I personally would recommend this product to people with dry, combination dry to normal skin. It makes your skin look oily over time, so I wouldn't recommend this to people with an oily skintype. Once you apply it, you will notice a healthy glow that this product gives you - a lovely brightening effect.
Since it takes some time to absorb (which is a bit too long for me in the morning, since i'm always in a hurry), I usually use this during the night time only. I like how it feels on my face, it feels fresh, keeps my skin moist, brightens and the scent of the cream smells lovely. This product just does what it says :).
