DECISION SNAPSHOT
What this product is for
A lightweight gel moisturiser with a current Ver.2 formula built around hydration, skin comfort and post-blemish support. It is useful when you want moisturising without a rich, occlusive feel, but it is not an acne treatment or a replacement for sunscreen.
SIMPLI VERDICT
Should you choose it?
Consider another option if
Choose another option if you want a richer, more occlusive moisturiser, or if tea-tree-derived ingredients do not suit your preferences or tolerance.
Start-Safe: Use it as the moisturising step while keeping cleanser and sunscreen stable. If your skin is reactive, introduce it without adding several other new products at the same time.
This is product-level guidance, not a personal routine recommendation. If you already own a suitable product doing this job, you may not need another one.

About this product
What it is
Dr. Althea 345 Relief Cream 50ml is a lightweight gel moisturiser. Its formula includes humectants, skin-conditioning ingredients and barrier-supporting ingredients including glycerin, panthenol, niacinamide, hyaluronic-acid forms, Centella asiatica components and ceramide NP.
Why choose it
- Lightweight moisturising: useful when you want hydration and comfort without the feel of a rich occlusive cream.
- Post-blemish routine role: it can provide the moisturising step around a blemish-focused routine without pretending to treat acne itself.
- Barrier-supporting formula: panthenol, hyaluronic-acid forms and ceramide NP are present alongside Centella-derived ingredients.
It is still a moisturiser, not a medical acne treatment. Persistent, painful or worsening breakouts need appropriate professional evaluation.
How to use
Brand directions
Apply an adequate amount after lighter skincare products and smooth over the face, gently patting to help it absorb. Use it as the moisturising step. In the morning, finish with sunscreen.
Simpli Start-Safe
If it is new to your routine, keep the rest of the routine steady while you assess comfort. Avoid introducing several new treatment products at the same time if your skin is already reactive.

Common questions
Where does it go in a routine?
Use it as your moisturiser after lighter products. In the morning, apply sunscreen afterwards.
Is it only for acne-prone skin?
No. Its role is moisturising and skin comfort. Blemish-prone skin may value the lightweight format, but the product does not need acne to have a useful moisturising role.
Is it an acne treatment?
No. It is cosmetic skincare and should not be presented as diagnosing or treating acne.
BEFORE YOU BUY
You may already have what you need
A better routine is not always a bigger routine. Check whether this product adds a job your current routine is actually missing.
Keep what works
If your current moisturiser already keeps your skin comfortable without clogging, stinging or leaving you too dry or greasy, keep it; you do not need to replace it just because this formula is popular.
You may not need to buy this
You may not need this if you already have a suitable moisturiser doing the same hydration and skin-comfort job.
