What the gurus are saying

Thick, rich and made for dry skin: that's what wins fans, who say it soaks in and is plush enough to carry them through the night. The split is fragrance and feel. Sensitive-skin voices flag the scent and essential oils, and others found the dimethicone pilled under sunscreen and felt smothering, so oily skin and fragrance-wary types may want a sample first.

Sensitive Skin: Best Tips + Products for You! | Dr. Shereene Idriss

"This one is infused with ceramides. It's great for super dry skin. It's also great for sensitive skin. [...] It comes in a nice metallized tube and it is a really thick cream. Again, not for somebody with super oily skin; somebody with really dry slash sensitive skin this might just be enough for you. Again, if you're super sensitive though, I would be careful because it's not necessarily the quote unquote purest of products out there as it has other ingredients as well, including a scent."

"I have a lot of respect for this cream and I recommend it, it's very good, but the texture is not for me personally. It's not occlusive, it's more lotiony and sinks into the skin nicely, [...] but I need occlusivity to fight my dehydration, otherwise my skin feels tight and dry, and if it goes on too long my skin gets irritated. It just doesn't have that, it's not made for my particular skin condition, so unfortunately it's not for me, though I still use it on my neck, chest, and hands."

BEST and WORST K-Beauty at Sephora PT 1 | Aestura, Beauty of Joseon, Innisfree, Dr. Jart

"My least recommended from Dr. Jart really just comes from the perspective of somebody with sensitive skin. I'm not a huge fan of the Ceramidin line from Dr. Jart, which you'd think I would be, because it's all about strengthening your skin barrier. It's all about ceramide content, but most of these products do contain essential oils. I don't have a hate for fragrance or essential oils. Generally speaking, I really don't."

"But now there are so many ceramide options out there that I just don't think Dr. Jart is actually offering the best version of a ceramide-based and focused skincare line. So let's do a product highlight on the Dr. Jart+ Ceramidin Cream. It retails for about $48 for 50 milliliters of product. This cream features five different forms of ceramides, along with cholesterol and fatty acids."

"It just absorbs and absorbs and absorbs and my skin can just drink it up, but it's very replenishing. I also really appreciate the larger size of this because I do a couple of layers so I run through products a lot faster, but with this bigger size I don't feel like I'm running through toner every single month. This lasts me a really, really good long time."

"My skin is just sucking this up, it feels amazing. Because I've used this for quite a while, I can tell you that there's some tea in here and I find my skin super responds to tea in skincare. [...] I always get natural redness, especially in this cold weather, and tea really helps with that quite a bit. I feel like it just brings a really healthy complexion. It's an antioxidant and there's some great polyphenol content in here. The moisture element is so silky."

"The Dr. Jart+ Ceramidin Cream was really thick and has fragrance in it, bergamot oil or some herbal oils. I didn't find the scent to be overwhelming but I really liked the thick texture of it because my skin was super dry. [...] If you're looking for an all-in-one product, this was thick enough to do the trick for a long time. It was good, but it has a lot of fragrance in it so I kind of eventually evolved away from it."

"I tried a little sample of Dr. Jart+ Ceramidin Cream. This has a lot of dimethicone and it doesn't sit well with some of the sunscreens that I use. I found that it caused a lot of pilling. So I tried it as a night cream and I just don't like the texture. My skin kind of feels smothered when I use this, so this is going to be a pass for me."

"For my dry areas this would be great, it feels really nice on the skin and my skin feels super moisturized after applying it.

What the evidence says.

Independent of what the gurus think, this is what the published research supports about the main active ingredients here.

Ceramides

Ceramides are part of the skin's own barrier, and moisturisers built around them have evidence for holding water in and settling the tightness and flaking that come with a damaged barrier.

Humectants and emollients

Ingredients like these draw water into the surface layers and slow how fast it leaves. The evidence is for comfort, softness and hydration rather than for changing the structure of the skin.
