Finding the right moisturizer for dry and FA-prone skin can feel impossible sometimes. Below options all provide rich hydration without triggering fungal acne.

Curel Intensive Moisture Cream (Japanese, but worth mentioning)
This isn’t Korean but is super FA-safe, lightweight yet deeply moisturizing, and perfect for very dry skin. It has ceramides to strengthen the skin barrier and keep dryness away without causing breakouts.

Etude House Soon Jung Hydro Barrier Cream
A slightly lighter version of the 2x Intensive Cream, but still provides amazing hydration. It contains soothing ingredients like panthenol and is great for calming irritated, dehydrated skin.

Dr. Jart+ Ceramidin Cream
Though a bit heavier, this cream does wonders for dry, dehydrated skin. It’s FA-safe and packed with ceramides to lock in moisture. Perfect for winter dryness or when your skin feels extra compromised.

Round Lab 1025 Dokdo Cream
This is FA-safe, gentle, and particularly good for repairing your skin barrier while providing a good dose of hydration. It’s lightweight yet nourishing, making it ideal for layering or as a one-step fix.

Benton Fermentation Eye Cream (used as face cream)
While labeled an eye cream, it’s FA-safe and incredibly rich and hydrating if you apply it as a targeted face cream for dry patches.
For an added hydration boost, you could also layer HA or propolis-based serums under your moisturizer (making sure they’re FA-safe, of course). Hopefully, these suggestions help get your skin back to feeling comfortable and happy—good luck on your skincare hunt 🙂
