What it is

PHYSIOGEL Red Soothing AI Repair Cream is a 100ml moisturizer listing Olive Oil, Glycerin and Squalane. Compared with DMT, its Palmitamide MEA and Betaine entries provide distinct comparison points. Red Soothing essence and tone-up sunscreen are different product types.

Connect PEA with the actual label

The Korean official list includes Palmitamide MEA, with Acetamide MEA and Sarcosine as separate entries. Start there if PEA interests you. Do not merge it with Panthenol or Ceramide NP, or assume every DMT ingredient is present in AI Repair.

Glycerin, Pentylene Glycol and Betaine appear with Olive Oil, Palm Oil, Vegetable Oil and Squalane. Tocopherol is another entry. Vegetable Oil is a general label, not permission to name an unlisted plant source. Oil-related ingredients also do not establish the same finish for every person. Consider both preferred ingredients and the finish you want from a cream.

Separate serum and cream roles

The official detail shows cleansing and preceding essence steps followed by Repair Cream as the moisturizing finish. It does not require replacing every product with the same brand. Decide separately whether you need the earlier hydration step and the finishing cream. The cream's formula and 100ml quantity are more relevant than the color or SPF of the range's separate sunscreen.

The Korean notice states no functional-cosmetic category and 12 months after opening. A statement about the manufacturing recency of sold stock is not the opening period. Manage the main bottle separately from essence and miniature gifts.

A buying question answered

No. The entry to check here is Palmitamide MEA. Read it with Betaine and Squalane; do not transfer a Panthenol serum’s ingredient list to this cream.

Application and comparison choices

After the preceding skincare steps, spread an appropriate amount as the moisturizing cream. Distribute evenly over the areas needing moisture.

Compare DMT for Coconut Oil, Shea Butter and Ceramide NP, or AESTURA for a ceramide-and-cholesterol capsule cream.

Compare Torriden Dive-In’s hyaluronic and Panthenol entries before cream if your routine needs an added hydration step.

Key ingredients

SqualaneEWG 1
Squalene with hydrogen added so it no longer goes rancid, closely matching a lipid the skin already produces in sebum. That similarity is why it absorbs without sitting on top, and while it once came from shark liver, olive and sugarcane are now the usual sources.
Glycerin
The most widely used humectant in skincare, drawing water toward the skin and holding it in the upper layers. Its interaction with the skin's own water channels has been studied for decades, and it is mild enough to appear across a very wide concentration range. At high levels it turns tacky, so formulas usually pair it with lighter humectants.
Betaine
An amino acid derivative obtained from sugar beet that draws in and holds water. It has a documented ability to soften surfactant harshness, so it also appears in cleansers. Because it feels less tacky than glycerin, formulas often use the two together.
Tocopherol
A form of vitamin E that works as an oil-soluble antioxidant, which means it also protects the oils in the formula from going rancid. On skin it is understood to defend lipids against free radical damage. Studies pairing it with vitamin C are frequently cited because the two stabilise each other.
