May Coop Raw Moisturizer Review

This post contains affiliate links. Product provided by Stylevana.


During my initial love affair with kbeauty, I was mostly excited about new-to-me product categories like oil cleansers, serums, essences, and so on. Moisturizers seemed boring, because creams as a skincare item were nothing new. Now I’ve come full circle to appreciating great moisturizers, partially because I’m used to all of the categories, and partially because my skin is changing with age and seasons.


May Coop Raw Moisturizer is not a well known product. Most people who heard about May Coop as a brand only know their iconic raw sauce. Ironically, I have only tried the cream, available on Amazon and Stylevana (discount code INF10KBH).

May Coop Raw Moisturizer

The cream is formulated with 63% acer maple water, rice extract, and soybean oil to fight free radicals, soothe the skin, and prevent wrinkles. It has a light texture (similar to but richer than gel creams) and a light scent. The jar is frosted glass and comes in a somewhat confusing packaging of a cloth bag and a traditional paper box. I am not sure why the brand chose to use both - the bag and the box - but it does make the product stand out in the sea of other moisturizers.


How to use

  • Apply at the end of your routine

  • Follow with SPF in the morning

May Coop Raw Moisturizer

Raw moisturizer has a pleasant, velvety finish that’s not greasy but also not drying. Those with dry skin or during cold, dry seasons may enjoy it as a morning product. Oily / combo types might prefer it at night.


My impressions

This is a great moisturizer. I loved the texture - light but still nourishing. Unfortunately, I didn’t get to finish the jar, because when your mom asks if you have any “extra cream laying around”, you give her the best you got. My mom’s skin is a little different from mine. I have combination skin with an oily t-zone and dry/normal everything else. Mom has pretty normal skin. She loved this too and described it as “pleasant, soft, and moisturizing”. I’d say I got through about 40% of the jar before our tragic parting. Mom finished it. Both of us used it at night.

My skin felt so soft and smooth, not at all sticky. I liked the fresh scent, but that might not be everyone’s cup of tea. Overall, such a lovely product that I would happily get again.
