How is this different from the standard Water Bank cream?

It is the richer option in the line, with a balm-to-cream texture instead of a lighter cream. It is aimed at very dry skin, while the standard cream and the cooling gel suit normal to combination skin.

Can I use it in the morning?

Yes, but it is heavy under makeup for some people. Many use it at night and switch to a lighter Water Bank product during the day, especially in warm weather.

Does it contain retinol or exfoliating acids?

No. It is a moisturizing step built on hyaluronic acid, squalane, ceramide, O-mega Peptide and centella-derived ingredients, not a treatment cream.

Is it suitable for oily or acne-prone skin?

It is formulated for very dry skin, so oily and combination skin often find it too rich. Those skin types usually do better with the standard Water Bank cream or the gel.

Where does it go in a routine?

After serum, as the moisturizing step. Use the amount that feels comfortable rather than layering it heavily.

What reviewers say

Owners of the Intensive version describe it as the Water Bank cream for skin that still feels tight after lighter moisturizers, with a thick texture that spreads down to a soft finish. Most praise the comfort in cold weather; some find it too rich for daytime or for oily skin.

About the LANEIGE Water Bank Blue Hyaluronic Intensive Cream 50mL

LANEIGE Water Bank Blue Hyaluronic Intensive Cream is a rich balm-to-cream moisturizer for very dry-feeling skin. It is richer than the standard Water Bank cream and the cooling gel cream. The texture melts as it spreads and leaves a soft, cushioned finish without a deliberately sticky feel.

The formula combines five forms of hyaluronic acid with O-mega Peptide, squalane and ceramide NP. It also contains centella-derived ingredients (madecassic acid, asiatic acid and asiaticoside), niacinamide and Lactobacillus Ferment Lysate. It is a cosmetic moisturizer, not a treatment for eczema or other skin conditions.

Use it as the moisturizing step after cleansing, toner and serum. Smooth an appropriate amount evenly over the face and gently pat it in. In a daytime routine, follow with sunscreen.
