How it works
The Butter So Much Concentrated Nourishing Cream is a 30ml cream, used as the last skincare step, morning and evening, over serum. The active it is built around is Adenosine, named twenty-fourth on its own ingredient list. The same list carries Tocopherol, Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil and Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil, so the active is not the only thing on it worth naming. How much of the Adenosine stays on the skin, and for how long, is decided by the cream format rather than by the list alone. This is the Original Korean Formula, the cream Frankly sells in Korea, Adenosine and all.

- Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil, Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil and Astrocaryum Murumuru Seed Butter on the same list, emollients
- Macadamia Ternifolia Seed Oil and Hydrogenated Polydecene further down the same list
- Cetyl Palmitate and Jojoba Esters further down the same list
- Adenosine named twenty-fourth on the manufacturer list printed on this page
Key actives
Adenosineactive
Adenosine is a nucleoside that Korea's own cosmetic authority recognises as a wrinkle-care functional ingredient, which is why it appears on so many Korean lists at a low level. It is used for the look of fine lines and is stable and well tolerated. On this cream's own ingredient list it is named twenty-fourth.
Tocopherolantioxidant
Tocopherol is vitamin E. It is an oil-soluble antioxidant that protects the oils in a formula from going rancid and works on skin as an emollient, and it is regularly paired with vitamin C because each keeps the other going for longer. It is named twenty-eighth on this cream's list, alongside Adenosine.
Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oilemollient
Jojoba Oil is a liquid wax rather than a true oil, and its structure is close to human sebum, which is why it absorbs so readily. It is an emollient that leaves a soft, non-greasy finish. The panel names it second on this cream's list, beside Adenosine.
Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oilemollient
Sunflower Seed Oil is high in linoleic acid, the fatty acid dry and blemish-prone skin is often short of. It is a light, non-fragrant emollient and one of the better tolerated plant oils. The panel names it third on this cream's list, beside Adenosine.
Astrocaryum Murumuru Seed Butteremollient
Murumuru butter, pressed from the seed of an Amazonian palm. It is high in lauric and myristic acid, so it is firm at room temperature and melts on contact with skin. It is named seventh on this cream's list, alongside Adenosine.
Where does this cream go in my routine?
As the last skincare step, morning and evening, over serum. Anything thinner than a cream goes on before it, and anything richer goes on after. If you are adding it to a routine you already like, give it a week on its own first, so what you see is the Adenosine and not three changes at once.
Is this the Korean-market cream or a US version?
The Korean-market one, Adenosine and all. We match this cream to its Korean barcode before it reaches the shelf, which is the check that tells you which market release you are holding.
What else is on the list besides Adenosine?
Tocopherol, Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil and Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil. The order they are printed in on this cream's panel is the order on the box, so you can see where Adenosine sits relative to them. Further down the same panel: Astrocaryum Murumuru Seed Butter, Macadamia Ternifolia Seed Oil and Hydrogenated Polydecene.

How to use
- Use it at the end of your routine, once your toner and serum have settled.
- Warm a small amount between your fingertips and press it over the face and neck rather than rubbing.
- Add a second thin layer on the areas that still feel tight instead of one heavy layer everywhere.
- Do not apply it before your serum, since nothing thinner will get through a cream that is already on the skin.
Worth knowing
- Patch test on a small area first if your skin reacts easily to new products.
- Use less than you think on oily or congestion prone areas, since a rich texture can feel heavy there.
