Abib Sedum Hyaluron Crème: The Deep-Hydration Pot

If the Heartleaf Tube is Abib's redness-focused moisturizer, the Sedum Hyaluron pot is the hydration sibling. Built around Sedum extract (a succulent traditionally used in Korean herbal medicine for moisture retention) plus five forms of hyaluronic acid and a niacinamide boost, this jar-format cream is Abib's answer to seasonal dryness, menopause-related thirsty skin, or anyone whose barrier needs more weight than a tube cream delivers. At $37.44 for 80ml, it's priced lower than the 75ml heartleaf tube, which reflects the larger format and slightly simpler ingredient list.

The pot delivery means you're scooping cream with fingers, which some sensitive skin purists dislike for hygiene reasons. Abib does include a small spatula in original packaging. The cream itself is rich but not greasy: closer to a gel-cream in final feel than a traditional dense moisturizer, which makes it wearable in summer too.

What It Does

Sedum extract is a humectant that pulls water into the skin and holds it there, similar to glycerin but derived from a plant source. The five-weight hyaluronic acid complex hydrates at different skin depths (high molecular weight on the surface, low molecular weight deeper). Niacinamide at 2% (estimated from ingredient position) supports barrier function and evens skin tone. The combined effect: plumper-looking skin by week 2, less tightness throughout the day.

Who It's For

• Dehydrated skin of any type: The multi-weight HA system addresses surface and deeper hydration.
• Dry-combination skin: Light enough for combo, rich enough for dry patches.
• Winter/seasonal dryness: A seasonal swap when lighter creams stop feeling like enough.
• Menopausal skin: Added hydration support when hormonal changes reduce skin moisture.
• Post-retinol recovery: Use alongside retinol routines as a hydration buffer.

How to Use

Apply a pea-sized scoop as the final moisturizer step. Warm between fingers, press into skin starting from center outward. Use AM and PM. For extra-dry winter nights, apply a slightly thicker layer as a sleeping mask, or seal with a facial oil on top. Use the included spatula to keep the jar clean, and close tight between uses to prevent the cream from drying out on top.

FAQ

Sedum vs centella vs heartleaf, what's the difference?

Sedum is a succulent used for hydration (humectant action). Centella is a wound-healer (cica). Heartleaf is anti-inflammatory (calming). All are Korean botanical favorites, but they target different concerns. If your main issue is dryness, sedum. If active irritation, heartleaf. If post-acne healing, centella.

Is it too heavy for oily skin?

Not generally. The texture is gel-cream despite the "crème" name. Very oily skin types can use it as a night cream only. Normal to combo skin can use it AM and PM year-round.

How long does 80ml last?

3 to 4 months with twice-daily facial use. One of the better value-per-ml moisturizers in Abib's line.

Can I use it with retinol?

Yes, specifically recommended. Apply retinol first, let absorb 5 to 10 minutes, then layer this cream on top. The hydration buffer reduces retinol-related dryness and flaking.

Is jar packaging a dealbreaker for you?

If you're germ-conscious or want light-protected actives at their freshest, yes, a tube would be better. For hydration-focused formulas (no retinol, no vitamin C), jar packaging is fine. The sedum and HA active ingredients are stable to air exposure.
