Even though I have extremely sensitive skin, it did not cause any breakouts when I applied it.
ConsHowever, if the amount is not properly adjusted, small bumps may appear on the forehead, sides of the nose, and cheeks. But those can go away if you adjust the amount properly. In short, it seems a bit watery, but it is still quite oily.
TipWhen I applied it to my hand, it seemed quite watery and absorbed quickly, but when I applied it to one side of my face at home, it became quite oily. Based on the reviews I read, if you apply it evenly all over your face, it's not as oily. And it's great - my cheeks feel soft and smooth, and it absorbs quickly. I will continue to use this and repurchase it, but only when it's on sale.

At least, nothing is coming out on my face, which is good.
ConsI don't know the special reason why it costs 37,000 won. If it's about being moisturizing, other essences are also moisturizing, so what could be the competitiveness?
TipIt's not a chewy type, so I pump it onto my face and pat it with my hands afterwards. I'm using it a bit like a toner.

The product is gentle, so it doesn't cause any skin troubles.
ConsThe moisturizing power and absorption speed are a bit lacking, which is disappointing.

It's a thin, watery type that I apply after toner. I'm quite sensitive to scents, but this one is almost fragrance-free, which I liked. It absorbs quickly, so it was great for when I needed to rush out. It leaves my skin feeling moisturized, and the hydration seems to last longer. I'm quite satisfied with this product and will likely repurchase it. Even with my sensitive skin, I haven't experienced any breakouts and have almost used up the entire bottle.
ConsAs a whitening essence, I didn't notice a significant brightening effect on my complexion.
TipSince it's a runny liquid type, I pumped it onto my palm two or three times and applied it generously from my face down to my neck. At my age, I need to take care of my neck area as well.

I'm not sure if there was a huge effect, but I felt that my skin tone was getting brighter as I used it consistently! I was worried about breakouts, but I didn't have any issues with that!
ConsWhen using the essence alone, there is a slightly drying feeling, so it's better to apply it after a good hydrating and moisturizing step.

I'm starting to gain more trust in Skinfood these days. This is the second time I've purchased a Skinfood product. I tried the sample of the Royal Honey Essence that I received, and I was like, 'Whoa, what is this?' The finish has a plump, supple feel, and it's hydrating enough that I don't need to apply a separate cream. I really liked this aspect. Just using the essence alone, my skin doesn't feel dry, but it's not overly oily either. Not applying a cream also makes my face feel lighter... I'm satisfied with the lack of breakouts and the finish.
ConsThe whitening effect seems a bit disappointing. It's not that there's no effect, but my skin is only brightening up a little bit at a time. However, when I wake up in the morning, my skin is much whiter. But after washing my face, it goes back to my original skin tone. Haha. There are some acne scars, but I think I'll see the effects if I use it for a long time.
TipJust slather it on as much as you want~~

The makeup absorbs well and leaves my skin feeling hydrated, plus it has whitening properties, so my skin tone has become brighter and a lot of my blemishes have faded. It's amazing!
ConsThe price is a bit steep, but I think it's worth it! When it comes to caring for my skin, I believe it's worth the investment.
TipWhen I apply it before doing my makeup, it keeps my skin feeling hydrated and nourished all day long!!

I'm using it well, the scent is nice, and it's a bit creamy.
ConsThey say it's a whitening essence, but I can't really tell that effect. I don't know if it's just me, but even my friends say they can't really tell the difference.

After using it consistently for about a week or two, I felt that the yellowish tint had significantly faded.
ConsThere wasn't any dramatic effect or anything like that. While it's marketed as a whitening product, the effect was more of an overall brightening of the complexion rather than a strong whitening result. It's more accurate to say that my skin tone appeared brighter.
TipUsing the products from the same product line together seemed to enhance the brightening effect on my complexion, rather than a true whitening result.

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsThis is the first time I've used a whitening product. I didn't have high expectations, but my skin did get a bit brighter. Rather than becoming completely white, my skin tone has become more luminous. But I actually prefer this. Even though I have oily skin, I didn't feel like there was excess oil, and I haven't had any breakouts yet.
ConsFirst of all, there's an issue with the packaging. When I pump it, it comes out with a squeaky sound and splatters everywhere. And in terms of application, it doesn't have a smooth, soft feel after applying. It's more like a sticky, tacky, or dense texture. It's a different sensation from just oiliness, and it's hard for me to describe. Personally, I don't particularly like this type of formula.
TipI see, thanks for the tip. I'll try cupping my hand when pumping the product to prevent it from splattering everywhere.
