For those with sensitive skin, this product may cause redness and irritation, so it's important to do a patch test before using.

The scent was one that I really enjoyed, and it was easy to apply all over my body. It also provided good moisturization.

스킨 앤 굳세라 에센셜 오일

Even when applying it to your elbows or hands, it doesn't feel sticky or oily like other oils, and it doesn't leave a heavy, greasy feeling. It gives a nice glow and provides good moisturization. If you don't like a slippery feeling, I highly recommend this. After exfoliating, you need to moisturize well, and if you gently pat this oil on, your skin will become incredibly smooth and healthy-looking, which is how I always use it.

The only inconvenience when using this oil is that you have to be careful not to spill it when opening the lid, but other than that, it's a great product.

This is one of the main reasons I highly recommend this product. Even though it's an oil, there's not much greasiness, the moisturizing effect is good, and it doesn't feel too heavy. It's a product I've repurchased many times, so I strongly encourage you to try it.

 Even now, the (newly renewed) Goodcera cream is not lacking in moisturizing feel, but for someone like me with extremely dry skin, it's still not enough in the winter.
That's why I bought the oil to layer with the cream, or to help maintain moisture for longer. In the winter, even when I slather cream all over my body, I always feel itchy, so this large volume oil that I can apply all over my body is really appealing.ㅋㅋ

 Like the reviews of other people, the packaging is...ㅠ The large volume in a glass bottle, when I try to dispense it and cover the lid, the oil gets stuck on the glass container and becomes slippery.ㅠ
If it was a glass container, a pump-style would have been great. The packaging is really disappointing.ㅠㅠ
I'll have to look for a small pump-style bottle to use it as a portable option.
If they had also sold a separate applicator to dispense it, this amazing oil could have been even more of a hit...
It seems like they didn't promote this good oil well enough.ㅠ

 There was someone who said the scent was not great, but this is almost 90% similar to the Bobbi Brown face oil scent. I really love this scent and it gives me a relaxing and comfortable feeling.
Anyway, the usage experience is much better than the Bobbi Brown oil.
I had bought the expensive Bobbi Brown oil before, but it made my face extremely itchy, oily, and slippery..and I ended up with pimples, so I couldn't use that expensive product on my skin.
After that, I used Innisfree seed, rapeseed, and olive oils, but the price is always too expensive compared to the volume.
Since I have extremely dry skin, I often used it layered with a cream, and now that fall is starting, my face is getting tight again in the morning.
So I bought the renewed Goodcera Ceramide set, and it's amazing! The volume is just perfect, the texture is dense but absorbs quickly without any slipperiness. The scent also gives me the most comfortable feeling among all the oils I've used.
I heard it's in danger of being discontinued, but I don't understand why they would discontinue such a good product with great ingredients and volume. I'm writing this to voice my opinion.
I don't know if it will be renewed and re-released, but with the news of it being discontinued, I went and bought two more bottles yesterday. The expiration date is still 2.5 years away, and oils can be stored well without being opened, so I stocked up a lot for my daughter who has a bit of atopy, to use on her body in the winter.

The packaging is still... 
The amount control seems a bit inconvenient. But since it's being renewed, let's wait and see.

Compared to the previous product I used (Bao Oil), the ingredients are quite mild, and the scent is not particularly bothersome.
I bought it at a 70% discounted price since the packaging design has changed.
Although I've only used two oil products so far, I find it doesn't feel heavy and gives a protective feeling, which I like.

 The difference between the 20ml and 100ml sizes:

I'll continue using the Mediu oil as a facial oil, but the Goodsera oil is too much, so I'm planning to use it as a multi-purpose oil, including on my face.

 [Minor Inconvenience 1]
Many have pointed out the issue with the packaging. I'm really feeling it now. I can't control the amount I want, and the bottle slips around like a freshly caught mackerel.

Fortunately, the cap can be pried open with scissors, though you have to be careful. I have a skincare product with a dropper that I've used up, so I'm planning to transfer this oil into that bottle.
※ Tried to transfer the dropper from the Skin Food Moisture Berry Essence, but it doesn't fit... I wonder what I need to insert to make it work.

I recommend you all just tear off the neck and attach it. Your quality of life will improve.

[Minor Inconvenience 2]
I've been mixing this oil with the very dry and difficult-to-apply Papa Recipe Regenerating Cream, and I've also been using the oil on its own for my skincare routine day and night.

Even for someone like me who uses a lot of oil, this seems like an overly large volume. In a way, it's a great value, but the excess could lead to waste.

Consider your usage amount, and if you think you won't use it all, you might want to opt for a smaller size product.

[Minor Inconvenience 3]
The oil has a ginger scent. I was hoping for a more green, herbal aroma, but the ginger scent is a bit difficult for me.

 Summary: Contains ceramide 3 and ceramide 6. A generous-sized oil that can be used by the whole family for a year.

I had been using the Mediu oil, which was already great, but I got tired of using the same product, so I went looking for something new and found this.

As a product that emphasizes ceramides, the refreshing feel is a bit lacking. It still has a somewhat heavy feel about half the time. But the moisturizing effect was good, and it was a recommended usage experience.

[Usage 1 - Facial Oil]
The basic method. According to YouTuber Ria-Yu, facial oils can be used at any stage of skincare.
I usually take a generous amount of oil, rub it in my palms, then gently pat it all over my face, massaging the areas around my ears and chin. It's more for waking me up in the morning than for beauty effects, haha. It's also relaxing to use before bed.
I also mix it with the last step of my nighttime care routine, the regenerating cream.

[Usage 2 - Body Massage Oil]
With the large volume, you can use a lot without feeling guilty. Use a generous amount. It can also be mixed with body cream.
This applies to all oils, but mixing it with Nivea cream really revives the Nivea. Be sure to try mixing them.

My legs get really dry these days, so I've been slathering on a lot of cream and letting it soak in. Massaging with the oil helps relieve the swelling in my tired legs, and I sleep so much better.

After applying, the oiliness doesn't get absorbed very well, so I'm gently blotting it with a tissue.

The scent is not artificial, which is good, and I didn't have any trouble either.
The texture is dry, but it's nicely moisturizing.

For those who say that the moisturizer dries up quickly even after applying it at the end of their skincare routine, this product will keep your skin hydrated for a long time!
You can mix it with foundation or apply a light layer on top of cushion foundation, and it won't look cakey at all!

The inconvenient packaging... I get anxious about it getting dusty or leaking.

The dead skin doesn't flake off (it's better to soothe the dead skin rather than remove it)
It has a refreshing scent.

After using it, some kind of issue, though not a full-blown breakout, started to come up on my face.
Since this is my first time using a face oil, I'm wondering if my skin just doesn't agree with oils.
Even though the other aspects were satisfactory, it seems like it doesn't suit me, so I'm considering just using it on my body.

-----
I figured it out!! I don't seem to do well with lavender oil, orange peel oil, and the like. If you're someone who doesn't tolerate products with a slightly tangy fragrance for no apparent reason, you might want to watch out for those ingredients.

1. Moisturizing
Even though the skin, serum, and this product were the only ones applied, my dry skin felt moisturized and not tight.
Although the skin and serum are not highly moisturizing products, when I applied this, it provided adequate moisture, though not to the point of being overly dewy.
It doesn't completely eliminate issues like internal dryness, but it's great to use as the final step in your skincare routine to maintain hydration.

2. Makeup application
I thought the oil would cause my makeup to slide off, but it actually helped my makeup apply and last longer. It's amazing!
Especially when used with dry foundation or cushion products, you don't even need to mix them - it works great together.

3. Somewhat tangy fragrance
The citrusy scent, similar to that of oranges, is pleasant and uplifting.

4. Good absorption, no stickiness
Of course, being an oil, it does have a sheen, but it seems to absorb reasonably well, and the finish is not sticky.

For dry skin types who experience makeup coming off in the winter, please try this!
After applying all your skincare, put a drop or two of oil in your palm, rub it in, and then pat it all over your face, especially in areas with a lot of dead skin. Then do your makeup, and it will stay on well!

The scent was fine for me, but my mom said it was not good when she smelled it once, so the scent seems to be a matter of personal preference~

I was using the Goodsera cream well, but since the house itself was dry in the winter, when I just applied the cream and went to bed at night, it was a bit dry in the morning. As a result, a lot of dead skin cells appeared on my face and a lot of sebum was produced, so I bought the oil from the same Goodsera line and it's really good!!! My skin stays moisturized until morning, and the oil is not too heavy, so I can drop a drop or two before makeup and it doesn't make my makeup come off!

⛤ When doing your nighttime skincare routine, after fully absorbing the moisturizer, take a small amount of the oil in your palm, rub it, and then gently pat it all over your face to help the oil absorb ⛤

👎 The packaging itself causes the oil to come out in very small amounts
(To put it positively, it's easy to control the amount)

There's nothing I was particularly dissatisfied with

👍 Moisturizing
👍 It perfectly replenishes the lack of oil in the skin
👍 Not stuffy despite being an oil
👍 Nice fragrance
👍 Good ingredients
👍 During the event period, you can also get a free mist

After washing your hair and while it's still damp, mix it with a hair essence and apply it to the ends, then let it air dry. It's great for hydration.

But I guess for people with drier skin types, it might not provide enough oiliness??
For me though, I didn't have any major issues, it didn't cause me to break out even when I just slapped it on my bare face.

Even though I have very oily skin, this is the only oil that doesn't cause me to break out, even in the winter when I apply any kind of oil to my face. I'm so moved ㅠㅠ This has become my holy grail oil.
The ingredients are even better than I expected, this is really good, I'll have to keep using it.

In the summer, just applying it to the ends of my hair makes it look greasy as heck, so I absolutely don't use it then. 
But from late fall, mixing it into my BB cream makes the application of the BB cream just fantastic, it blends in so smoothly bb.
It seems to mix well with most BB creams, and there's not much separation or thinning out of the BB cream either.

The amount is huge, like an animal-sized portion! I actually prefer that it doesn't have a dropper, since I'm impatient and clumsy and would probably break it trying to open it ㅋㅋㅋ
