What is this product?

FATION's Glucose Hydro Cream is a water-loading gel-cream for dehydrated skin, not a barrier cream: 75 ingredients with no plant oil, no butter and no ceramide anywhere, so it charges skin with water and seals lightly. The humectant side is genuinely well built, with hydroxyethyl urea sixth, urea, trehalose, six hyaluronate forms, twenty amino acids and copper tripeptide-1. FATION prints the glucose it names the line after at 4,010 ppb, which is unusual honesty and also a trace amount, so the name is not where the value is.

What makes it different?

It carries no botanical extract at all across 75 ingredients, which is rare in Korean skincare and removes the most common source of unexpected reactions, and it pairs that with no fragrance, no essential oil, no alcohol and no exfoliating acid. It also prints an actual concentration, glucose at 4,010 ppb, where the category prints nothing. The trade-off is the sealing side: with only a hydrogenated hydrocarbon and two fatty alcohols and no ceramide or cholesterol, very dry skin in winter will want an oil or balm over the top. FATION publishes a 60 ml spec block for this cream on its own two-piece set page, and the Olive Young corpus record for the planned bundle carries that SKU's own eleven-row spec block, so both the size and the SKU's printed spec are on file; what the archive lacks is a rendered Olive Young page, blocked at 403 during collection.

What is in it?

The full ingredient list as the brand publishes it, in the printed order. Each name links to what we know about that ingredient.

This brand publishes its ingredient list in Korean only. Names below are the matching INCI names from the Korean Cosmetic Association ingredient dictionary, except 8 with no dictionary entry, left in Korean.

Key ingredient

Ingredients with no mark are ones we found nothing notable about, and when marks overlap on one ingredient we show the caution first.

We could not place these in the list above: C12-20 Alkyl Glucoside, Sorbitan Isostearate, Cetearyl Alcohol

Did the ad claims hold up?

We checked 3 lines this product advertises against the ingredient list and public documents. One of them holds up. The rest are only partly right or have nothing behind them.

Each line is quoted as the brand published it, and each one was read on its own against the ingredient list and the documents the brand publishes.
