About Round Lab and the Soybean series

Round Lab is a super popular brand in Korea, and their products are always flying off the shelves at stores like Olive Young. They're all about using natural ingredients and effective, modern formulas.

The Soybean series with black soybeans is my go-to. The main ingredient is fermented black soybean extract, grown in Korea's clean mountainous regions. This series is suitable for both 25-30-year-olds and 50-60-year-olds. It's crazy that Round Lab didn't even advertise this line, but it's still super popular!

A bit about my skin

I'm 34, with oily skin, enlarged pores, occasional acne, post-acne, and a shiny finish.

At the time of starting to use this cream, I was 33, with a lot of post-acne.

Packaging

The box design is cute and nice. The cream box is on top.

The packaging design is the same for the cream bottle. It's a glass bottle.

The ProductThe cream itself is a light coffee color.

It's thick, but compared to other Round Lab creams, the Soybean series is way more dense.

Effectiveness

This cream is super moisturizing! It suits my skin perfectly. It absorbs quickly, doesn't feel greasy, and has a very pleasant texture. My skin feels super hydrated and grateful after using it.

No greasiness at all. I try to apply it thicker at night, so I get a slight greasy glow in the morning. But it still works great under my makeup and doesn't look shiny.

The cream smooths out my skin, restores its texture, nourishes, and makes it look silky. I noticed the effect right away – my skin got a healthy glow.

* About the post title – in South Korea, Korean women loved this cream so much that they started posting empty jars in their reviews. That means they use it until it's completely gone! And that's even more impressive in Korea, where there are countless creams available, and customers are extremely loyal to specific products – it's a sign of quality. Generally, Korean beauty bloggers give high ratings to all products in this series.

Before and after

So, I've been using this product for a while now, and I wanted to share my experience. I had a pretty clear skin after using the 1025 Tokdo series, but suddenly I got a hormonal breakout, and it was a real nightmare. It was like my skin was on fire, and I had these painful pimples all over my neck and jawline. It lasted for a few months, and then it just cleared up on its own.

The result after 2.5 months

The result after 2.5 monthsAs you can see, these are some before-and-after photos. I took them in December and February last year, with a 2.5-month gap. I didn't use any other products during that time, just this one. I'm really happy with the results, and I think it's a great value for money.

Country of origin: South Korea

Volume: 80ml

Price: 2780 rubles for the cream. I bought the whole set from Korea for 11000 rubles.

The Verdict

I think this is the most versatile product from Round Lab, and I'd recommend it to anyone. It's a great starting point for anyone looking to try out the brand.

Other products from the Round Lab Soybean line:

ROUND LAB Soybean Cleansing Oil - my favorite oil for removing makeup

Round Lab Soybean Cleanser - a great exfoliating cleanser

Round Lab Soybean Nourishing Toner - I was really impressed with this toner, it's a great value for money and it comes in a generous size.

Round Lab Soybean Serum - This serum is one of my favorites, it's a perfect addition to the toner and moisturizer from my previous post.
