Okay besties, I just cracked open my second tube of the Anua Heartleaf 70% Intense Calming Cream (new formula) and let me tell you — she still slaps. The only real difference I noticed? It’s slightly less greasy and those tiny moisture pearls melt in way quicker. But overall, still the same miracle worker.

Let’s rewind: I bought this when my skin barrier was on life support from tret, vitamin C, and 10% glycolic acid. Within 24 hours, this cream brought me back to life. Hydrated, calm, dewy — like I never committed skincare sins at all 😅

Used it AM + PM (go lighter under makeup), and no joke, a waitress complimented my skin. That’s never happened before. I was literally wearing just this + BOJ sunscreen. Like… hello??

If your face is fried, dry, or just in need of some serious love, run — don’t walk — to grab this moisturizer. Your barrier will thank you 💅
