Thank you so much, I'm really honored to have your trust and support! 🙏❤

This is great to hear, I just looked up illiyoon on youtube and discovered Kelly and I am so impressed that to one cream I found straight up two reviews year apart from her. Also the comparison of this or that of lotion vs cream was great to see! This woman seems like my skincare youtuber holygrail as she also seem to share my skintype :D

Really glad they addressed the capsules, never noticed it until the last old bottle and just thought i was a bad batch!

Yea for sure, the last bottle was the worst! I feel like Illiyoon finally realised that most ppl use this as a face cream and not a body cream, which I think is what it was originally intended to be.. The new formula seems much more elegant and the overall texture and ingredients are way better imo. Great video Kelly x

Glad to know.. Coz the old version on my face was REALLY greasy!!!!

Do you think oily, acne-prone skin types can use this?

@@fionac3578 ahh.. when you said it like that, makes sense why the ceramide beads got harder and more difficult to melt.

Sorry for your loss ❤️

@@juli_shares1556 Thank you 🌹

I'm so sorry, the loss of a pet is such a difficult thing. I know how hard it can be, I'm very touched that I can be a part of your healing process. Hang in there, sending love and hugs! ❤

which is more occlusive & oily, newer or old version?

Indeed.. been using the old and now the new version most especially Im using tretinoin now

Oh no! I never had an issue with the capsules until the last bottle I purchased in 2021, so glad this new version is way more melty (in a good way) 💖

@@KellyDriscoll I'm excited to give it another chance😍

Yep, I think that was it for me too. The whole beauty of the old version is the fact that it absorbs without leaving any oily layer on top. I have mild rosacea. I can’t use anything that suffocates my skin even slightly. Silicones over oils every time.

@@hannal5512 same for me! I still have half a bottle of the old formula and probably won't repurchase. It was such a nice cream and so great that I could use it on my rosacea face as well as body

I'm glad this helped you! You're right about it being much more similar to cerve now, I had that thought too.

so the newer version is more thicker?

What's a hard no for me is the grass they have added, and I'm severely allergic to grass pollen. Even when I was in Asia, Japan, tho not even the same grass species I did react.

old version is less oily than the new?

Oh nice combination!

Glad this helped!

That's really amazing to hear your skin is taking to tret so well, I hope this newer version continues to help!

So glad your skin enjoyed! ❤

I always look like a chocolate glazed donut for bed. I sleep on a silk pillow case to retain moisture.

She has a video about the toner

Have you tried that same line's gel creme? I'm really thinking about trying it my very sensitive and allergy-prone skin

@@lucyjames8818 I haven't, but it looks really good! My skin is a little too dry for gel creams but I've definitely been tempted lol

have you tried the new one? how is it for your oily skin?

​@@bunnniel have u tried it ??

@@sunflower_6086 Yes, I use it after using tretinoin for 30 minutes. Waiting for 30 minutes does not make my forehead oily, however waiting for only 3 minutes makes my forehead oily for the next 30 minutes. Probably because tretinoin hasn’t sinked in yet? Or damp skin + illiyoon makes it oily? Also, I've been using it for over 3 months and haven't had any breakouts.

Great idea to mix the cream and lighter water cream!

Old comment, but it seems unscented to me, I doubt it's in there for scent.

any updates?

Updates?

Hope you enjoy it!

do you use moisturizer on your hair?

@@luigilove254ceramides are great for haircare 🖒

@@anapaulasanchezvasquez2881 Oh! Do you apply it all over your hair? Doesn't it feel greasy and heavy?

@@luigilove254 no at all, and then i put a hair oil😊 it's all about personal preferences hihi

@@anapaulasanchezvasquez2881 Hair care only? Whay about scalp care?

You're so welcome!

Then stay away from this product. Just go for product for sensitive skin

No I didn't, it's too rich! The new formula is a cold-weather staple, though!

More moisturizing and emollient is illiyoon. More protective and occlusive, it might be neck and neck now that new illiyoon is more occlusive.

@@KellyDriscoll thanks for your reply

Same for me. I thought i was the only one who got a bad batch so I bought 2 new tubes and it was the same. That’s why i came looking to see if Kelly has got any updates on this. Thanks Kelly!

Wow that's hard to choose, both would probably work! I haven't used iunik in winter yet but I have used soon jung a few years ago and it was nice!

I used the Etude House one all this winter in the morning and never had an issue!

I would love to see a comparison too!

Yes, i also think that way, for the old version sometimes I can still feel it till evening but the new version just hold on until afternoon. And the new one feel more light than old one. For the skin texture, I think the old one the winner its really make my skin texture soo smooth (acne scar), the new one is smooth too but not enough like the old one.

Wow ginseng milk sounds really lovely! 😍 The bonajour toner is really good and it sounds like your skin is going to really enjoy it!

@@KellyDriscoll Thank you 💙 Yes I love the bonjaour toner, very hydrating and I am very happy with this product. And the eborian ginseng milk - WOW. I have tried so many ginseng, but hands down, this is the best. So moisturizing and works well in combination with other products. The only thing that bothers me is the fragrance. I am not a fan of fragrance in skincare. But this type of fragrance is okay for me. It is a fresh smell and not a perfume one which would give me a headache…I hate perfume smell in skincare. I had it with the face shop rice & ceramide moisture emulsion, it was one of the worst experiences I have had with a skincare product. Couldn’t stand the smell and my head hurt. Thank god here in Germany you can return even skin care products you bought from Amazon without a problem. Anyway, I have ordered the Illiyoon cream now and I hope I will like it (have dry skin). But I’m not sure what version I will get. The old or the new one. But I wanted to try another cream besides my isntree hyaluronic acid moist cream (which is still my favorite cream because it moisturizes my skin over a long time without greasiness and getting dry already after an hour. I’m still looking out for alternatives. After the Illiyoon I want to try the Zeroid Intensive cream. I also haven’t tried omega complex moisturizer from Paula’s Choice like some other products from Paula either. From cosrx the hyaluronic acid cream is still on my to do list. But I don’t want only a gel cream, my skin needs more so there are richer creams from cosrx, innisfree and many other companies. The Sana Nameraka Honpo Soy Milk Isoflavone Wrinkle Cream sounds great too for my dry skin. I‘m addicted to skin care (especially Asian skincare) and can’t wait to try it all :-) Thank you for your informative videos Kelly, it always helps me with my decisions and you also update me on new skin care products! Will also update you about the Illiyoon cream, if it’s the new version and if I like it. Can’t wait!

never tried the lotion but i finished the gel version which has a very gel cream like texture but it provide a lot of hydration and moisture to the skin. if you have oily skin, pea size amount is enough for your face. it keep my very moisturised throughout the day. 175ml is going to last you for months

@@ownsbytessa thx u so much for this 😭 been scourging for the gel's review for days now 😩 aaa thx!!🤗

​@@ownsbytessa does gel version of this makes ur face dark... I feel like my face is becoming dark...mine is oily/combo skin... Or should I try cream version of this? Plz help me.. I can't figure out why it's making me dark .. but after applying this texture of my skin changed to buttery smooth

@@sreejasrizz7924 what do you mean by dark? Is it sun tan or is it looking dull? If its sun tan, you are probably not using enough sunscreen and if it’s dull, you probably need some mild exfoliation to shed off the dead skin cells build up

@@ownsbytessa so the dullness is not because of this moisturizer? Okay.. coming to exfoliation day( begginers exfoliation)... The next day face is burning like hell donno why? I apply two finger length sunscreen every 2 hours..(1/4 tsp for face and neck) is that enough sunscreen?

You're so welcome!

I bought the new version on Stylevana in February.

@@KellyDriscoll Thank you Kelli. I just purchased from Stylevana as well. I didn't realize they had an option there to choose from the old formula or the new one. I didn't care for the old formula. I was sensitive to something in it. I have drier skin and am really looking forward to trying this new formula. I didn't even know they changed it until I saw your review. Love you and your channel. Keep up the great work. I have rosacea, eczema, and just hypersensitive skin in general, and I'd be lost without your channel. You're a Godsend. ❤

@@wakeupordie how did you get on with the new formulation? I tried the old one but it wasn’t enough for my eczema skin

You can pause the video on the side by side ingredient chart I made, you can see the red logo is placed differently on the new bottle.

I tried the BoJ one but sadly it didn't calm my skin as I expected. Maybe Kelly had a different experience 😌 In my observations calming the skin is somewhat personal. Is there any triggers that causes sensitivity on your skin?

Hey, this video is now 1.5 years old and I've gone 2 summers without using this cream! It's too heavy for my combo skin that can lean a little more oily in summer. I used it a ton last fall and winter and plan to do so again this fall and winter!

The centella cream is less occlusive than the new illiyoon.

@@KellyDriscoll thanks!

Mainly yesstyle and stylevana, I always link the products I talk about in the description box with the places I recommend purchasing from!

Formula change happened late 2021, but the shops were selling through old stock for a while after that. I ordered the new one from Stylevana in February, I'm pretty sure yours is gonna be new. Look at the placement of the red logo on the tube, new version i smaller and placed lower.

@@KellyDriscoll thanks Kelly very kind

The formulation changed in late 2021 so this would be the most recent formula.

If you have dryness on your skin and acne prone it could worth trying. There are many factors to what can trigger acne so it's hard to say for sure.

@@KellyDriscoll Yeah, if u don't try, u'll never know Thank u, Kelly for answer!

You likely won't run into the old bottle anymore since the new one has been out for close to 2 years. The new one has the red logo in the blue border now, not outside.

Yes!

Yes!

@@KellyDriscoll thank you!
