Nonfiction Cream

NONFICTION launched in South Korea with a focus on hand care before expanding to full body routines. The brand name references a straightforward, no-frills approach: the formulas do what they say and the packaging stays minimal. Unlike many Korean beauty brands that emphasize complex ingredient stacks, NONFICTION prioritizes sensory experience - texture, scent, and the small ritual of applying a hand cream - alongside effective moisturization.

Their products are available in a consistent range of formats: 50ml hand cream tubes for purse or desk use, 300ml pump bottles for home use, and occasional limited-run sets for gifting. The brand has a loyal following in Korean lifestyle retail and has expanded to international stockists including skinsli.com.

Sangtal Cream is NONFICTION's foundational scent, a warm floral-powdery fragrance that runs through the hand cream, hand wash, and body wash formats. Sangtal means "glow" in Korean and the line was designed as a complementary set - you can use the hand wash, hand cream, and body wash with the same scent signature for a layered effect.

The Sangtal Hand Cream comes in 50ml, which is the standard tube size for the brand. The Sangtal Body Wash (300ml) and Sangtal Hand Wash (300ml) are the home-use pump formats. If you like to match your hand and body scent, buying the Sangtal Hand Cream and Sangtal Body Wash together gives you continuity from the shower to the sink.

The Beige Hand Cream (50ml) is a neutral-scented option for users who want effective moisturization without a strong fragrance. "Beige" in NONFICTION's product naming signals a quieter, softer profile compared to the more floral Sangtal or botanical Gaiak Flower lines.

This is the cream to choose if you apply hand cream frequently throughout the day and do not want competing scents with your food, work environment, or other fragrance products. It also works as a paired alternative in the office when stronger scents are not appropriate.

Gaiak Flower Hand Cream is available in the standard 50ml format. The "Gaiak" name relates to a botanical concept - the scent is greener and fresher than the warmer Sangtal, leaning more floral-herbal. One listing also appears as a hand lotion crew alongside the Gaiak Flower Hand Cream 50ml, which is a 50ml companion in a slightly different texture.

If you like light florals with a green-fresh edge rather than a powdery-warm finish, Gaiak Flower is the better choice over Sangtal. Skin type does not significantly determine the choice between these two - it comes down to fragrance preference and occasion.

The Citrus Hand Cream Mini Trio bundles three mini-size tubes in the citrus scent line. This is the primary gifting format in the NONFICTION cream collection. The trio is useful for discovering several formats or scents at lower commitment, and it works well as a desk set since you can keep one tube at home, one at work, and one in a bag.

The trio does not include a body lotion or wash - it is purely hand cream in a compact multi-pack. If you are buying as a gift for someone already using NONFICTION, pair it with the Sangtal or Gaiak Flower line they use for a scent-matched set. If it is a gift for someone new to the brand, the trio serves as a standalone introduction to NONFICTION's hand cream texture.

Top Cream Hand Lotion (300ml) is a pump-bottle format designed for sink-side or desk use. At 300ml it sits alongside the Sangtal Hand Wash and Body Wash as the home-use tier in the NONFICTION lineup. Lotions are typically lighter in texture than cream tubes and absorb faster, which makes the 300ml lotion a better choice if you want quick absorption after handwashing rather than the longer richer coverage of the 50ml cream tubes.

The Top Cream lotion and the Sangtal hand cream address the same need but at different moments: use the pump lotion after every handwash for light quick hydration, and keep a 50ml cream tube on your nightstand or in a bag for more intensive application when your hands are particularly dry.

The Hand Cream and Vegan Night Duo is a curated two-product set that pairs a hand cream with a vegan night product - presumably a richer overnight treatment format. This set is suitable as a gift or for users wanting to build a hand care routine that includes a daytime lighter cream and an overnight richer application.

If you already have a daytime hand cream from NONFICTION and want to add a nighttime step, this duo introduces the overnight format at lower cost than buying separately. It is also a good gift set for someone who wants a complete simple hand care routine without choosing individual products.

NONFICTION extends the Sangtal scent into body care with the Sangtal Body Wash (300ml) and Body Lotion Sangal Cream (300ml). Both are home-use pump formats. Using both in the same scent line creates a matched shower-to-lotion experience - apply the body wash in the shower, then finish with the body lotion after toweling off.

The body lotion texture is different from the hand cream tubes - it is designed for large surface application and absorbs without leaving heavy residue. If you want to bring the NONFICTION brand experience into your full body routine rather than just hand care, the Sangtal body wash and body lotion pair is the most straightforward way to do it.
