Cetearyl alcohol is a mixture of two fatty alcohols: cetyl alcohol and stearyl alcohol. It is mainly used as an emulsifier. Emulsifiers help prevent the separation of oils and products. Due to its composition, it can also be used to thicken a product or help create foam.
Cetearyl alcohol is an emollient. Emollients help soothe and hydrate the skin by trapping moisture.
Studies show Cetearyl alcohol is non-toxic and non-irritating. The FDA allows products labeled "alcohol-free" to have fatty alcohols.
This ingredient is usually derived from plant oils such as palm, vegetable, or coconut oils. There is debate on whether this ingredient will cause acne.
Due to the fatty acid base, this ingredient may not be Malassezia folliculitis safe.

Personal experience was mixed, cause I destroyed my skin barrier using the whole 30 days miracle line for 30 days. But then tried it on its own when my barrier was restored and it wasn't that bad, just not fungal acne safe.

Loooove this. I want to bathe in it, drink it, and have it's babies.
Definitely a night time cream, gives the skin a dewy wet look, best to put on as a last step - its thick and slimy texture can act as a kind of "slugging" to seal in the rest of your routine.
I probably put on too much, but I don't see a downside besides my wallet. It glides so smoothly and spreads so well over my skin I'm obsessed with how glossy it feels.
And the next morning when I wake up my skin is so happy, so calm, so well moisturized, and so soft, I definitely notice a difference than when I don't use it.
The only thing I didn't like about this product was the packaging. I hate having to dip my fingers in jars. Even if you don't care about the possible contamination, this product has a tendency to always finds its way under fingernails.
But they recently updated the packaging to a squeeze tube! Huzzah! Now there's nothing I don't like about this product!
Edit: After purchasing the new tube packaging...I suspect they may have changed the formula a little bit. The new tube packaging dries a bit faster, and dries with the tiniest feeling of powder. That's the best way I can describe it. Like how some greasier products will use cornstarch to make it not feel so greasy, but you still get this aftertaste of powder film. It's so faint I'm not 100% sure, but I remember the cream in the jar stayed moist and slimey after application longer than this. It could be that it's reacting to something else in my routine, but it does this even on freshly cleansed skin so I don't know. I hope it's not a new formula... I like the slime.
You don’t realize what you have until it’s gone
I’m nearing the end of end of my second jar, so I was trying to conserve it by using this cream more infrequently. I had no idea how much this soothed my skin and was helping with redness...
You don’t realize what you have until it’s gone
I’m nearing the end of end of my second jar, so I was trying to conserve it by using this cream more infrequently. I had no idea how much this soothed my skin and was helping with redness until I began using it less and less. It’s such a hydrating formula too, and of course it’s got that classic snail mucin texture so it’s kinda slimy. But I have no issues with that, and I actually really enjoy the consistency as it has no problems sinking into the skin.
The jar packaging is not my favorite however, because this is not a thick cream. HOWEVER recently COSRX began offering this same formula in a tube with twice as much product, so when I repurchase this I am definitely going to go with the tube option (the jar is still available for those who like it). For anyone on the hunt for a soothing and hydrating product, this is wonderful option and I recommend you try it.

Only Moisturiser That Doesn't Break Me Out
I am so happy I bought this - it is the perfect addition to my skin routine as someone with normal/combo (and very acne-prone) skin. Only complaint is that (for me at least) it isn't moisturising enough and if I use it on its own, I will get very dry patches throughout the day. Bear in mind I use a retinol and benzoyl peroxide which are quite drying, and potentially why I need an extra cream. Still on the look-out for something that doesn't break me out to pair with this product, so this one is still the best I own!
