I loved applying it with a cotton pad as a cooling mask.
ConsI used it during summer when my skin was producing more sebum. After thorough cleansing, it felt quite stinging, so I started avoiding it. My complexion darkened (I thought it was due to excess oil, but it was actually redness).

ConsMy face broke out like an atopic reaction the very next day after using it. If your skin doesn't agree with fermented ingredients, I strongly advise against this product.

I think it's making my skin texture look pretty good.
ConsI bought this because I remember using the first generation product well, but... On days when my skin is sensitive, it stings too much. It even makes my skin turn red sometimes...

ConsI'm not sure if it's because of my sensitive skin, but after using it, my face broke out in red, hive-like bumps. So disappointing!

The scent is much more pleasant than SK-II's Pitera essence.
ConsI think fermented skincare doesn't agree with me because after using this, my skin reacted badly with irritation and a massive outbreak of dead skin cells. For a while, my chin area looked like reptile skin. I have oily, resilient skin that usually takes 2-3 weeks of use to determine if a product suits me or not, so I couldn't check in advance. For first-time users, I strongly recommend asking for samples to test before purchasing. After application, it feels sticky without much of a refreshing sensation.
TipSince this goes on before your toner, don't use an exfoliating toner after it. That would just wipe everything off. Instead, let your skin absorb this essence first.

ConsThe day after using this, I started getting milia. I thought it was just purging, so I kept using it, but my skin became red and irritated. I regret buying this based on reviews alone. It's been months since I stopped using it, but the redness on my cheeks still hasn't gone away.
TipMake sure to try a sample before purchasing

ConsThe fermented ingredients didn't seem to agree with my skin, causing a massive breakout of blemishes. After using this, the sebum production on my cheeks significantly increased.

I must say, it definitely leaves my skin feeling more hydrated. With this, I didn't need to apply anything else, even in winter.
ConsAs soon as I apply it, my face starts burning. Red spots appeared, so I had to stop using it. My skin reacted similarly to what others have shown in their photos. It felt like a hydrochloric acid attack on my face.

Even after wiping with a cotton pad and patting it in, my skin doesn't feel dry at all. It absorbs well and keeps the moisture locked in.
ConsUnfortunately, the hydration turned into oiliness on my skin. Strangely, even though I don't have oily skin, after using this, even my dry cheeks became shiny. I tried using just this product alone, but it still made my skin look greasy. Is that supposed to be good? Maybe I should save it for winter... Also, I've never had blemishes from any product except The Face Shop Chia Seed Essence, but this caused some redness and a few breakouts. I had high hopes because of its reputation, but I'm disappointed. I'll give it a bit more time, but if I don't see results, I'll have to switch to something else.
TipMake sure to buy it when there's a $10 off sale!

I think it has a brightening effect. When I apply it to my neck and face, my face definitely looks brighter compared to below my neck.
ConsWhen I first used it, it stung a bit and my redness that had disappeared came back, which was very disappointing. But after about 3 days of use, it got better.
TipI use it by soaking a cotton pad generously. Sometimes when I want to do a mask, I soak several cotton pads thoroughly and apply them to my face for 15-20 minutes before removing. This definitely makes my face look clearer, more hydrated, and gives me a feeling of a brighter complexion. The next day, my skin seems even better.
