"That is where the Haruharu [Centella] Phyto and Five Peptide Concentrate Cream comes in. So one of the star humectants here is a trio of ingredients that go under the trade name Aquacil. So these are actually sugar molecules that help to deeply hydrate the skin and bind that hydration into your skin really meaningfully creating that comfortable feeling in your skin restoring water levels."

Which Fragrance Free Haruharu Wonder Moisturizer is Right For You?

"I do enjoy this cream, I've actually had my eye on it for a while. This is the one that I've had my eye on for a while and I did not feel that it disappointed me, although I do feel it was actually lighter than my mind was thinking it was going to be. For combination skin, you're not too dry and you're not too oily, if you have that kind of really classic combo skin I think you're really going to enjoy this."

"It has squalane, caffeine, shea butter, centella, argireline peptide, sea buckthorn berry extract, and Matrixyl peptide, so it's pretty friendly for dry skin. If you have acne-prone skin, it does have some comedogenic fatty alcohols in it, cetyl alcohol, stearyl alcohol, and myristyl alcohol, so it might not be the best bet for very acne-prone skin. [...] But for very dry skin, it's really hydrating and leaves skin feeling really nice."

Worth Trying? 🧐 Haruharu WONDER Centella Phyto & 5 Peptide Concentrate Cream Moisturizer Review

"It's slightly tacky and not greasy. It [...] works best when you apply it right over serum because you get some slip in it. It feels very nice on skin once it soaks in. I really think it gives skin a little bit of a glow without making it look greasy. It just gives you a little bit of a glow but it doesn't feel like greasy or oily during the day. [...] If you're going to use it in the daytime it does work pretty nicely under most sunscreens so no issues at all with ease of use, very easy to use."

"When it comes to well-aging moisturizers, this formula has everything I want. This is rich but does not leave any greasy residue because it absorbs fast and it just leaves a really pleasant velvet finish on the skin. It's not at all scary for anyone who just doesn't like shininess or oiliness or anything like [...] that. I particularly love peptide moisturizers. I especially like using this under an overnight mask, whether it's a hydrogel one or a wrapping mask."

Gentle Spring Morning Skincare Routine

"This has all my favorite peptides in it. This is a very substantial moisturizer but it leaves a nice velvety finish on your skin so it's not heavy and greasy. It's emollient without invasiveness so it sits really well under makeup. Peptides are great to use in the morning, especially the neuropeptides. They're good at relaxing those expression lines so they don't appear so obvious but at the same time preventing them from getting deeper."

New Korean Skincare to Try in 2025!

"I love how dense and creamy this is. It has that intense dense texture which reminds me of the cream portion of DBA's double serum and cream, which I absolutely love. But [...] while you are applying it, it actually absorbs and dries down super fast, so you're not going to get that glossy greasy finish. [...] This gives you a nice velvety finish but also makes everything feel quite snatched. This will grip your skin underneath the mask but also it is very intensely moisturizing."

"With this being only one fluid ounce I went through it very quickly, much more quickly than a moisturizer that's 1.7 fluid ounces or [...] more, but I did really like it. [...] What's smart about this product is that because it can be refilled, people are more likely to go back and buy the refill, and they got me, I [...] know I'll buy the refill because I'm planning on holding onto the packaging."

BEST & WORST of Haruharu Wonder! (with important updates to the science...)

"This is top tier, not only because of a gorgeous ingredients list, with the peptides properly disclosed, but also because it's [...] such a gorgeous thick cream. If you've been dreaming of a heavy cream like this existing in K-beauty, we just haven't had that, most K-beauty creams are lightweight. This one came through, and it's also a refillable system, which keeps it a little more affordable given it's fairly small, about one fluid ounce for around $15 with refills around $10."

"I love my tried-and-true Haruharu Wonder Centella Phyto & 5 Peptide Concentrate Cream. I've talked about this in previous videos for how good of a rich moisturizer it is for overnight. If you're someone who has a little bit more mature skin or you're really wanting to dial in on the moisturizing power throughout the winter time, this one is an awesome one. It also has really cool ingredients like copper tripeptide as well as caffeine, madacasside, augopeptide, squalane, ceramide, centella."

What the evidence says.

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

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.

Peptides

Peptides are short protein fragments meant to signal repair. The evidence for them is thinner than for retinoids or vitamin C, and it varies a lot by the specific peptide, so the category is more promising than proven.
