Since the Dalphang brand is so famous, I bought it hoping it would improve my skin texture. After applying it, I feel a tightening sensation on my skin. I think it's working and making my skin more supple!
ConsFor those with dry skin, you'll likely need to do extra moisturizing after using this product. The tightening sensation means it's not very hydrating.
TipFor normal or oily skin types, you can probably just use this product as is. But for me, after using this, I found that applying a rich essence afterwards made my skin feel incredibly smooth and plump the next day!

First of all, the application is so smooth. It applies softly and leaves a slightly matte finish on my oily skin, but it's still adequately moisturizing. This is a functional serum, and its purpose is pore management and skin clarification, and the effects are truly amazing! When I use this, the next day my pores look tightened and my skin looks radiant and glowing. The serum has a thin, watery texture, and after applying it, there's a shimmery-like residue left on my hands, though I'm not sure what the ingredient is. The Dalppang Intral serum is good for redness, and the Hydra Skin serum is a moisturizing serum, but I found the ingredients in both of them to be rather disappointing. Surprisingly, the Intral serum actually has better ingredients. I'm on my 4th bottle now and have one stocked up, because I get anxious when I'm running low. You really have to try this. However, it might feel a bit drying for dry skin types. If you have combination skin with enlarged pores and uneven texture, this will be a life-changing serum for you!
ConsThe biggest downside of this serum is the price and the small volume. I believe this is the second most expensive serum in the line. I've been buying it at the duty-free store for around 80,000-90,000 won. At the department store, it's just under 200,000 won. Considering the price, the volume is really disappointing. It's a 30ml bottle, but due to the thin, watery texture, one pump can cover one side of my face. To do my whole face and neck, it takes 7-8 pumps. At that rate, it definitely won't last a full month, even with daily use. My sister, who I recommended this to, said she used up a whole bottle in just 3 weeks! Compared to other serums that last 3-4 months in a 30ml bottle, the price-to-volume ratio on this is really poor.
TipYou're absolutely right. Since skin condition can vary day-to-day, it's better to rotate through different serums rather than using the same one daily. I personally use around 5 different serums, and I only use this Dalppang serum once or twice a week at most. Even with that limited usage, you can still experience the immediate benefits that are the hallmark of the Dalppang products.

Intral is a slightly viscous, water-like type, but this one has a watery, thin emulsion feel. It's a translucent essence. It's not heavy at all, but it lightly grips the pores and elasticity, while being smooth and absorbing well! There's no irritation either.
ConsThere are no disappointing points..the price and the product are satisfactory.
TipAs a sensitive person, I use the Phytera water-type. After using both Intral and this, I use this as the final step in my serum routine. I mainly use it in the evening, depending on my skin condition.

There is no stickiness, and the quick absorption makes it great for summer too. As a sensitive skin type, I can't use just anything, but this serum doesn't cause any trouble at all. That's why I make sure to stop using high-performance or whitening products a week before that time of the month and use this serum instead. Also, if I try something new and it causes a reaction, I come back to this product as a safe haven. I've been using this product for over a decade, so I trust it wholeheartedly. Serum alone is usually not enough for sufficient hydration, but this serum fulfills its role admirably.
ConsIt's a product without any shortcomings, but I took away one star due to the unreasonable domestic price and the cautionary ingredients.
TipIt's good to use without burdening sensitive skin. It's especially nice for summer hydration needs. In winter, you can layer it and apply generously for decent hydration as well. The absorption is so good that you don't feel as dry when quickly applying a moisturizer.

There were no issues after using it, which was great.
ConsIt feels more like a toner than an essence or serum. The moisture level is low and it doesn't seem to have any moisturizing effects at all. The fragrance is also quite divisive. It seems like a product that doesn't offer much in terms of value for the price.

I wanted to try the Intral line because I heard good things about it. As I'm in my mid-30s, I also wanted to manage my wrinkles, so I purchased and have been using it. The scent is nice, and it seems to be reducing the redness. I'll need to use it more, but I can recommend it.
ConsThe amount is too little, so I have to check how much I've used each time. I wish the amount was a bit more. The price is also high, so I bought it at the duty-free shop.
TipThere's no stickiness when I apply it in the morning, so I use a cheaper product in the evening and quickly apply this one before sunscreen in the morning.

To be honest, the Intral or Hydra lines were too light for me... This product seems to be effective for early aging and skin improvement. There's a slight improvement in skin texture, and it's a good product for long-term use. The more you use it, the more you'll notice your complexion becoming brighter and more radiant. And with Dalppang products, you may not notice the effects right away, but when you start using them again after a break, you realize how good they are!
ConsThe scent wasn't really my style - it had a slightly masculine vibe, compared to the other lines. The Ideal line's fragrance just doesn't suit my personal preference.
TipIf you use this product along with Tangerine or Orange Blossom from the Aroma line, your complexion will look even brighter and better! Apply it that way, sleep at night, and when you wake up, it'll be great!

ConsThe price is expensive, but it is not worth the high price at all. I purchased it because it was said to improve skin texture and elasticity, and also be effective on pores, but there is no such effect at all, and I don't feel any moisture or sebum, and it is dry. It has absolutely no effect.
TipIt seems better to purchase a different anti-aging product.

But it really has no good points for me;;
ConsThe scent is one that I dislike. It's heavy, strong, and acidic? Dalphang is an aromatherapy brand, so they say you should deeply inhale the fragrance before applying the essence, and the skincare effects will increase... But when I smell it, it's not healing at all, it gives me a headache... And above all, it really doesn't suit my skin. It's for dry skin, but I thought it would be good to use as a nourishing cream in the winter or during seasonal changes... But it was the wrong choice. More and more pimples keep popping up, and sometimes the scent even gives me a headache.. It's expensive, so it feels like a waste to put it on my body...I really don't know what to do with this. I absolutely do not recommend it for combination skin.

I definitely felt that my skin texture improved when using this. I've been using it consistently for quite a few bottles now! Among the affordable essences, this one suits me the best.
ConsAfter application, it feels quite powdery, so I have to immediately follow up with a moisturizer. But when I use it that way, it seems to work fine.
