Is Dr.Althea 345 Relief Cream right for your skin?
Best for
- Skin that feels red, tight or uncomfortable after breakouts, sun, harsh weather or over-exfoliating
- Sensitive skin that needs a calm, simple moisturiser
- Combination and acne-prone skin that wants moisture without a heavy, greasy layer
- Anyone using retinol, AHA or BHA who wants a soothing cream on top
Skip it, or patch-test first, if
- You want a product that fades dark spots: this is a calming moisturiser, so pair it with a targeted serum and daily sunscreen
- Your skin is very dry and flaky in winter: you may need a richer cream or an extra layer at night
- You have reacted to Dr.Althea products before: patch-test on the jawline for 24 hours
- Your skin has a rash, broken skin or a condition that is getting worse: see a doctor before trying new products
How do you use Dr.Althea 345 Relief Cream?
Morning
- Cleanse with a gentle face wash and apply toner or serum if you use them.
- Take a pea-sized amount, warm it between your fingertips and press it gently over the face and neck.
- Let it settle for a minute, then apply a broad-spectrum SPF 50 sunscreen.
Evening
- Double cleanse if you wore sunscreen or makeup.
- Apply your serum or active, such as retinol, and let it absorb.
- Finish with the 345 Relief Cream as the last step. On very dry nights, use a slightly thicker layer.
Oily skin in humid summer: a thin layer is enough, and you can skip it in the morning if your sunscreen feels moisturising. On nights you use retinol, applying the cream first and the retinol on top can make it feel gentler.
What are the key ingredients in Dr.Althea 345 Relief Cream?
- 345NA complex — Dr.Althea's own soothing ingredient blend, which gives the cream its name
- Niacinamide (vitamin B3) — supports the skin barrier and helps the tone look more even over time
- Panthenol (vitamin B5) — helps the skin hold moisture and feel calm and comfortable
What does "Renewed" mean on the Dr.Althea 345 Relief Cream?
“Renewed” marks Dr.Althea’s newer version of the 345 Relief Cream. The name and the role of the cream stay the same: a soothing, everyday moisturiser for sensitive and stressed skin. Packaging on newer units may look different from older photos online. If you want to check the exact formula of the unit you receive, the full ingredient list is printed on the box. Every unit we sell is bought from official Dr.Althea channels and batch-code checked on arrival.
Dr.Althea 345 Relief Cream vs Dr.Althea 147 Barrier Cream: which should you choose?
| Dr.Althea 345 Relief Cream | Dr.Althea 147 Barrier Cream | |
|---|---|---|
| Main focus | Calming red, sensitive or stressed skin | Supporting a dry, weak skin barrier |
| Best for | Sensitive, combination and acne-prone skin | Dry and dehydrated skin |
| Format | Face cream | Face cream |
| Step in the routine | Moisturiser, before sunscreen | Moisturiser, before sunscreen |
| Use together? | Possible: 345 in the morning | Possible: 147 at night in dry weather |
Choose the 345 Relief Cream if your main concern is redness, sensitivity or skin that feels stressed after breakouts or actives. Choose the 147 Barrier Cream if your skin is mainly dry and tight. If your skin is both sensitive and dry, some people use the 345 in the morning and the 147 at night.
How can you tell if your Dr.Althea 345 Relief Cream is original?
- The cream should be smooth and soft, with no grainy bits, separation or strong perfume smell.
- The box should be sealed, with the ingredient list and Dr.Althea details printed clearly; blurred printing or spelling mistakes suggest a copy.
- A price far below other trusted sellers usually means old stock or a fake.
- Check the batch code printed on the box and the bottle: the two must match, and the code should look printed, not stuck on. Every unit we sell is batch-code checked on arrival in Seoul, and we verify any code for free — see how to check if Korean skincare is original.

Dr.Althea 345 Relief Cream: frequently asked questions
Is the Dr.Althea 345 Relief Cream at Korean Skincare Pakistan original?
Yes. Korean Skincare Pakistan is an Official Authentic seller of Dr.Althea in Pakistan. Our stock is bought from official Dr.Althea channels in Seoul, every unit is batch-code checked on arrival and shipped from our Seoul warehouse. If a product is ever not original, an old batch or near expiry, you can return it free within 7 days.
What is Dr.Althea 345 Relief Cream good for?
It is a soothing moisturiser. It calms skin that looks red or feels sensitive, tight or stressed, for example after breakouts, sun, harsh weather or strong actives, and it adds comfortable moisture. Many people use it as their everyday cream because it is gentle and layers well under sunscreen. It is not an exfoliant or a spot corrector.
Does Dr.Althea 345 cream remove dark spots?
No, not on its own. It is a calming moisturiser, and while the niacinamide in it helps the tone look more even over time, it is not made to fade dark spots or acne marks. For those, add a targeted serum such as vitamin C, niacinamide or alpha arbutin, and wear a broad-spectrum SPF 50 sunscreen every morning, which matters most.
Is the Dr.Althea 345 cream good for oily skin?
For most oily and combination skin, yes. The light, soft texture gives moisture without a heavy, greasy layer, which oily skin still needs, especially when using acne actives. In humid summer weather, use a thin layer, and you can skip it in the morning if your sunscreen feels moisturising enough. Patch-test first if you are very breakout-prone.
Can I use 345 Relief Cream every day and at night?
Yes. It is made for daily use, morning and evening. In the morning, use it before sunscreen; at night, use it as the last step of your routine, on its own or over serums and actives such as retinol. Dry skin may like a slightly thicker layer at night, while oily skin often needs only a thin layer.
Does 345 cream help with acne?
It helps acne-prone skin feel calmer and more comfortable, and it is a good moisturiser to use alongside acne products that can dry or irritate the skin, such as salicylic acid or retinol. It does not unclog pores or clear breakouts by itself, so keep a targeted acne product in your routine and see a doctor for painful or severe acne.
Which size should I buy, 15ml or 50ml?
The 15ml size is a trial or travel size, good for checking how the texture suits your skin. The 50ml size suits daily morning and evening use and works out better value per ml. Both are the same cream. The live price and stock of each size are shown right under the Add to Cart button.
