    What the gurus are saying

    This lightweight gel delivers a subtle glow without getting greasy, which is why it works beautifully on oily skin. Gurus praise the thoughtfully chosen ingredient lineup and note how quickly it absorbs while keeping skin soft and supple throughout the day. However, it's hydrating rather than ultra-heavy, so those seeking a truly power-packed deep moisturizer may want to consider other options.

    "Rovectin does a nice lightweight watery cream, a deeply hydrating watery cream which I think considerably better than Tatcha. What people want is that deeply hydrating watery cream, and Rovectin does that in my opinion considerably better."
    Yay
    "Rovectin's Lotus Water Cream is really good, that is an excellent humectant inside of actually a moisturizer, which is great."

    "Lotus flower has so many benefits for the skin. It's been used historically as kind of the healing ingredient for aging, but it also has almond oil, panthenol, allantoin, just an incredible ingredient list that impressed me when I first was looking into this product. But as soon as I started using it, I was like, this is going to be around for a while. And I was so right because not only have I repurchased this so many times, every time I use it, I'm always blown away. It's so good for giving you that lightweight moisturizer experience that is still able to hold up in more humid environments or hot environments or on the oily parts of my skin, but it nourishes the skin in such a beautiful way that gives it this ever so slight glow without getting too greasy or heavy. If you're someone who likes a little bit of that hydrating effect and isn't solely just looking for the lightest weight moisturizer you can find, I would definitely recommend this. I think this is such a high quality moisturizer at a great price point."

    The BEST Korean Skin Care of 2023
    "Not only is it a really good affordable moisturizer that provides a lightweight but deeply hydrating experience, the primary ingredient in it is lotus extract which is amazing for anyone who is concerned about premature aging, reducing skin sensitivity and irritation, and fighting against fine lines and wrinkles, as well as providing antioxidant protection. Lotus extract is just such an incredible ingredient that is very hard to find in one, affordable products, and two, not super heavy moisturizers. I found myself using this moisturizer so many days throughout this year. It is such a beautiful formula, simple but elegant and effective. I highly recommend it."

    "I have talked about the Lotus Water Cream, it was featured in my best moisturizers of 2023 video. Beautiful formula that I've used more days this year than I can count. It's a lightweight gel consistency that adds a little bit of glow to the skin but still is so lightweight that it works for oilier skin types. With a really impressive concentration of lotus extract, which is a great antioxidant, it helps to soothe the skin but most importantly it helps to fight against premature aging. I've used this one so much, it has never let me down."
    Korean Skincare vs. Korean Snacks: Which is Better?
    "This is one of my favorite Korean skincare products ever. I have used this consistently for years, and this year alone I've used this product daily for like three months. I am obsessed with this moisturizer. It's one of the best and I think it's been featured in the last three best of moisturizers videos that I've done because it is such a nice lightweight gel moisturizer that gives your skin just a little bit of a glow, a tiny bit, but nothing that will make your skin look overly greasy or shiny because that's really important for me as someone who has combination skin. A lot of moisturizers that say they're super lightweight out there are not actually that lightweight, and this one withstands humidity. It always stays put on the skin even if I am feeling extra greasy, but it like immediately absorbs so you don't feel like it's there. It is an amazing formula. I highly recommend it."
    The BEST Moisturizers of 2023
    "The Rovectin Clean Lotus Water Cream is a Korean moisturizer for $20 that has an absolutely incredible and very impressive ingredient list. I fell in love with the product because of how high of a concentration of lotus extract it has in it. Lotus extract is a very powerful natural ingredient that not only works to protect our skin from damage throughout the day from free radicals, basically giving your skin like a shield against so many of the environmental factors that accelerate aging, but there's also a lot of really interesting data about how well lotus extract can help to minimize the appearance of wrinkles, help fight against premature aging, and overall make the skin appear more youthful. It also has other great ingredients like glycerin for hydration, niacinamide which is amazing for the skin's moisture barrier, panthenol, and allantoin which are great moisturizing agents. Unlike the majority of moisturizers out there that are very thick and heavy on the skin, this is an ultra lightweight gel cream moisturizer that always works to hydrate the skin but doesn't feel heavy or greasy. Plus lotus soothes irritated and sensitized skin."

    "I'm going to use my moisturizer, the Rovectin Clean Lotus Water Cream. I have been using this non-stop recently just because of the humidity in Hawaii. This one holds up so well with my oily skin and the heat. It's a great option."

    "A good moisturizer for oily skin I forgot to recommend is the Rovectin Water Cream. I've used it for so long I wouldn't be able to count how many days I've used that product, I love it, and the ingredient has Lotus which helps with reducing excess redness."

    "This is a moisturizer I always use during the summer time, the Rovectin Clean Lotus Watercream. It's a Korean brand, it does a good job of making sure my skin is hydrated but not over the top."
    PREP YOUR SKIN FOR SUMMER ☀️
    "One of my favorite gel moisturizers that I find myself using all the time is the Rovectin Lotus Water Cream. It's a great Korean moisturizer that helps keep the skin soft and supple but is extremely lightweight, absorbs into the skin really quickly, and doesn't make your skin oily or greasy throughout the day."
    almost miss my flight with me lol
    "If you've watched any of my videos from the last year, you know I'm constantly talking about the Rovectin Lotus Watercream. It's one of my favorites, and it even made it into my best moisturizers of 2021 video. I am obsessed with using this one both in Hawaii and in Colorado. I love that it has a lightweight gel consistency that can handle any heat or humidity when I'm out and about, but it's also deeply hydrating so my skin isn't left feeling dry throughout the day. Colorado is one dry place and I've used this moisturizer regularly to get that perfect balance."
    The BEST Moisturizers of 2021!
    "I love this formula because of how lightweight it is on my skin. Anytime it'd be a hot summer day, or humid, and I was struggling with oiliness, this one always came through, and I specifically like it because it is pretty moisturizing. I'd say this one works if you have oily skin but still want some moisture, still want a boost of that hydration, it's a great one for that. It's a Korean skincare, fragrance free formula that's great for sensitive skin, and it has an incredible percentage of lotus extract. I really just like the brand overall and what they stand for."
    Why Your Moisturizer is NOT Working
    "This has always been one of my favorites. It's the Korean moisturizer that is extremely lightweight on the skin, it absorbs into the skin really quickly, doesn't feel heavy. It's a great price point, very minimal ingredient list, but does the job in ensuring that you have a great moisturizing experience."

    What the evidence says.

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

    Niacinamide

    Niacinamide has evidence behind it for redness, uneven tone and supporting the skin barrier, and it is usually well tolerated even by skin that reacts to most things.

    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.
