It works well when mixed with other oil products or used after applying a vitamin cream, moisture essence, or pack, as it doesn't leave any residue and helps control the shine.

It might work well for people with oily skin or those whose skin isn't too sensitive, but for those with uneven texture or a lot of dead skin, even if they have normal or combination skin, it might not be comfortable to use, especially in the winter.
It's a very smooth, non-moisturizing type, so it's fine for people who already have good skin texture, but generally, there doesn't seem to be any standout benefits, which is a bit disappointing.
It feels like they made a standard oil-free product after creating other products with more obvious advantages, so I'm not too eager to repurchase it considering the price.

It absorbs quickly without any stickiness or residue, so it's great for when you need to do your makeup in a hurry. And the fact that there are no obvious downsides is a plus. I'd recommend this to people like me who have combination skin and tend to get oily later on, causing their skin to look shiny.

It was good to mix and use with the turbo booster from the same Philosophy line. Other creams have strong scents that are burdensome, but this product seems to pair well.

There was nothing particularly good about this product. It's a bit stuffy vaseline-like in texture for a moisturizer, and my skin felt a bit stinging (though there were no breakouts), so I don't think I'll repurchase it.

The turbo booster vitamin C powder was good, so I was looking for a cream to mix with it and bought a set product from the duty-free shop that came with the Hoff in her Night. 
I bought it oil-free to use in the summer, but somehow ended up using it in February. It applies smoothly and mixes well with the turbo powder.

Apart from the oil-free gel, the all-skin type products have a certain degree of sebum.

1. Applying it leaves a stinging sensation on the face.
My skin is not particularly sensitive, but this product causes irritation.
2. Due to the complete lack of sebum, it's difficult to apply for those who don't have extremely oily skin.
3. The fragrance is not medicinal, grassy, or artificial cosmetic-like, but rather unpleasant.

1. It has virtually no sebum, providing a matte and dry feel.
(It's so devoid of sebum that I'd even recommend it to those with extremely oily skin, but be cautious)
