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.
ConsThe 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.
TipEven 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.

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.
Cons[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.
TipThe 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.

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.
ConsAfter 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.

ConsThe fact that it's not in a dropper format is both an advantage and a disadvantage. I find it convenient to use a lot at once, but sometimes more comes out than expected, which might be burdensome for oily skin types.
TipIt seems to absorb rather slowly, so you'll need to pat it in well!

I'm really happy with it because it's inexpensive and has a large volume. I always trust Goodsera, so I believe the oil will be good too. I like that it's not in a dropper format, as I worry about dust getting in when the dropper goes in and out with other products.
ConsMy sister finds it inconvenient that it's not in a dropper format. The scent is nice, but I'm worried it might have a negative effect on my skin.

ConsIt would have been better if it had a dropper, as it's a bit inconvenient to dispense it.
TipWhen you mix it into a BB cream or lipstick, it's not drying at all and gives a nice, dewy effect.
