I even discussed it with my mother, and she agreed that it doesn't suit me.

Those sensitive to tocopheryl acetate should avoid it.
I just realized that I'm so sensitive to some ingredient, I wondered what it could be.
My eyes react strongly (stinging) to organic sunscreen ingredients, and this cosmetic product doesn't suit me. My skin feels irritated and unbearable. When I checked the ingredients, I found tocopheryl acetate. I thought it was vitamin E that makes the skin supple and improves the preservative power of cosmetics, but it just doesn't work for me.

The texture is usually a bit thinner than a serum.
Since the Atoparm I used while raising my kids worked well for me, I tried the Atoparm series that is apparently targeted at adults, and the spreadability was good, but...

인트로 세럼

Wipe your skin with a cotton pad soaked in the skin toner, then apply a small amount of the intro serum to the T-zone area or your entire face, and proceed to the lotion application step.

The downside is that the volume is small. For those of us who only use it on the T-zone area like me, it's still fine, but if you use it all over your face, it'll be used up in no time.

Applying an intro serum after skincare can help the next step of lotion or moisturizer absorb better into the skin. In my case, I don't apply lotion or cream on the oily T-zone area, but just using the skin toner alone caused my sebum to come up, leaving me in an awkward situation. However, when I carefully applied the intro serum not only to my entire face but also the T-zone area, I found that my skin didn't get oily or have any trouble. Oily skin tends to produce excess sebum whether you apply too much or too little, so you need to find the right oil-moisture balance that suits your skin. That's why I personally use the intro serum to balance the oil-moisture levels in my T-zone area. Especially in the summer, when oily skin needs a lightweight gel-type moisturizer, this serum is very useful. Compared to just using skin toner and lotion, my skin feels less dry.

There's really nothing disappointing, but it seems like there are a lot of customers who want larger sizes. ㅜㅜ
Atopalm and RealBarrier have great online deals and flash sales sometimes, which is really nice.

It's incredibly gentle and I highly recommend it for sensitive skin.
I've tried the RealBarrier products from the mist to the toner and cream, and they're all so gentle.
They're very moisturizing too.
However, the only thing is... the serum and mist have a scent that reminds me of the cough medicine I used to take as a child. ㅜㅜ I just can't get used to that smell.
The serum has a viscous texture, and I think it would suit dry skin types well.
The usage feels like it provides not just a burst of moisture, but also good hydration, so it helps balance things out.
My skin has a radiant glow!

After toner, mix and apply the intro serum + extreme cream, and you're done

Why don't they sell this on the website these days!!!!????

It seems like I've used about 20 of these haha
I'm not sure if it's good to apply, but if you don't use it, it's noticeable
It plays a refreshing role in combating dry skin in the winter

The watery texture absorbs into the skin faster and has excellent moisturizing properties.

I'm not sure if it's good to apply, but when I skip this in the middle, I sometimes feel the cream sitting on top of my skin. It's like... it acts as a medium to help the cream absorb better into the skin, so the cream absorbs well and later when I do my makeup, there's no creasing.

The packaging was a bit inconvenient to use.
It's a dropper type, but it doesn't seem to press down easily..
Anyway, it was inconvenient ㅠㅠ

It's incredibly moisturizing!
I mix this serum with the Real Barrier Ampoule, and it gives a really hydrating feel.

Try using the Real Barrier products together.

As for the price, if you buy it on sale, you can get it for half the price.
Since Real Barrier products are always discounted anyway, why are they priced so high?

The product has good spreadability and makes my skin feel really soft and moisturized.
It seems to have a function that helps reduce flakiness and such.
I've tried various Real Barrier products, and this one is the best.

It feels like it absorbs quickly and disappears. I think I need to apply it once more.

The scent was not too strong and absorbed quickly, which was great!!!

The only downside, if I had to nitpick, would be the price. I recently checked and found that it's only available at duty-free shops now. I'm not sure why that's the case. My sister is planning to travel abroad soon, so she'll be able to purchase it at the duty-free shop, but I wish I could buy it domestically at the original price as well.

This is a true must-have product in my life. I purchased this serum after extensively comparing ingredients when my skin was going through a very dry phase, and I absolutely love it. I've used almost 7-8 bottles of it because it has been so great at resolving my dry skin issues. When I apply it, my skin feels comfortable and the perfect amount of moisture is replenished.

If it feels dry, apply it multiple times.

Well, it's a functional product, so those with sensitive skin should be cautious.

It's great for using without any burden as it's moisturizing and absorbs well.

Discontinued......ㅜㅜ It was a life essential product...I'm disappointed

This was a real life essential... Applying the intro serum + real barrier cream + real barrier ampoule was so good, as it didn't leave much oiliness behind... But it's been discontinued ㅜㅜ

It absorbed at a crazy speed as soon as I applied it, and there was no moisturization at all. My skin started to sting like crazy right after applying the serum, so I had to wipe it all off. Luckily, my skin didn't get red or develop any pimples, but it was so stinging that I was shocked. I strongly recommend testing the sample before purchasing.

The absorption is incredibly fast, and the ingredients are quite good.

I was really surprised when I received the Atopalm essence sample and applied it. About 2 hours later, my face started itching so much that I couldn't stop scratching. Suddenly, I woke up and looked in the mirror to find my entire face covered in red, bumpy hives. Oh, my skin! When I used the Atopalm Real Barrier Cream, there were no issues, so I naturally assumed the essence would be fine too. But shortly after applying it, my cheeks, around my mouth, and forehead all became rough and itchy, so I had to wash it off again. I'm really puzzled as to which ingredient didn't agree with my skin.

The product had a nice glide and left my skin feeling moisturized and supple after application.
