I like this set
I have applied first the calming water cream and a after that was dried, I applied the serum. I don't have oily skin, but I do get redness and eczema. So after I applied this, I followed up with more moisture.

Aesthetically pleasing!
Not only is it aesthetically pleasing but also great for the Skin. I love skincare and I have a whole collection. I like to make sure that the Ingredients are safe to use. Therefore I use multiple apps and websites to scan the product and tell me if there are any toxic ingredients.This set has one serum and one moisturizer. The serum is super lightweight has a light scent and feels amazing. The moisturizer is a water based moisturizer. If you put it in the fridge it’s going to be nice and cool in the morning. Great product

Artemisia Korean Skincare Duo with Freebies; Like the Earthy Smell
The Bring Green (Korean brand under the Olive Young umbrella) Artemisia serum and lotion duo arrived sealed in plastic with a pair of freebies. Included are their Artemisia Calming Intensive Serum in a very sturdy plastic dropper bottle (40ml or ~1.35oz) and an equally sturdy jar of Artemisia Calming Water Cream (75ml or ~2.5oz). The packaging claims the serum contains 70% artemisia, and 54% in the water cream. Please see the included images of labels and the product's appearance.Artemisia is a general term for a diverse genus of plants that include mugwort, wormwood, and the like. Mugwort, for example, is a fabulous topical ingredient common in Korean skincare. Centella Asiatica (pennywort) is an equally lovely medicinal herb. Both are known to help calm inflammation and irritation associated with conditions like acne and is suitable for sensitive skin. I've used all sorts of essences and face masks with this family of ingredients. They tend to have a wonderful earthy, herby smell.I'd love to say more about all of the ingredients listed, but everything is in Korean and I had a hard time translating some of it. And the list was surprisingly long. What I did glean, is the water cream does have bergamot and sage oils. This disappoints me as I personally don't like citrus or essential oils in my skincare. That aside, the water cream smells and feels amazing. It is hydrating and I can see the appeal for someone with combination or oily skin. If you have dry skin, this may not be hydrating enough.Alas, my little jar of Artemisia Calming Water Cream did come with a hint of spillage seeping from around the rim of the lid. It appeared when it was being packaged, the safety disk inside had been pressed down further than the berm allowed. This caused a little water cream to burp out onto the threads of the jar, and eventually leak out.The serum scent is not nearly as strong, but similarly earthy and herby. It is slightly more viscous than water, not thick. I just use a few drops and gently pat it onto my face and follow up with a dollop of the water cream (which does not come with a spatula, so I carefully turn the jar and allow gravity to feed a little into my hand).I've not had any adverse reactions to this particular duo (acne-flares or product reactive rosacea). Nor have I noticed much of a difference in my skin either. I feel neutral about it as, aesthetically, I like the look of the product and I get a nice experience using them (texture, smell), but they don't have a wow factor. I'd appreciate the maker providing a translated list of all of the ingredients here on the sales post, not just the highlights.

I love this stuff!
I really did not want to love this product, because of the price, but it is honestly so worth it! For the price you get both the serum and cream. My skin is so soft and and moisturized. The serum and cream apply so soothly and are light weight and absorb nicely. They are non greasy and so gentle on my very sensitive skin. Oh and the scent! It's so fresh and clean smelling! I have a collection of different skin care items and this is one of my absolute favorites! I have nothing negative to say about the product!

Doesn't seem to benefit my dry, sensitive skin much.
I use Retin A and my skin is sensitive and stings when I use a lot of products that usually don't bother my skin when I am not using the harsh but so beneficial Retin A. I must pick and choose what I use on my face. This Artemisia Calming set seemed to be perfect for my skin because it is made for sensitive skin. But it is also made for oily skin which my skin is very much not. It's very dry.All text on the boxes and jars is in Korean so I don't even know what is in the serum or cream and what the directions for use are although that is pretty obvious. The serum is lightweight and doesn't sting too much. It does tingle a little. It has a somewhat earthy scent that is not bad but not great either. I don't really feel much or see much when I use the serum. It absorbs fast and that is it,The cream is very thin. It could be in a bottle and squeezed out as lotion. It doesn't sting my skin but it actually feels like it dries it out. It absorbs quickly as well and then I feel like my face has a film over it like when I use an egg white mask. I also use a heavy cream so, after I apply my usual cream, that tight feeling goes sway. For me, this set, while not awful and not painful on my skin, just doesn't do a whole lot for me. My very thirsty skin needs more hydration. For acne prone skin, this would probably be great because it isn't oily or heavy at all. For sensitive skin, use the serum, cream and then cream over that if you need more hydration. Oily skin can probably get away with just using this cream as their moisturizer.
