Pros
I don't use it all year round, only from fall to spring! In the summer, I used sunscreen-foundation-powder in that order before makeup. But as the seasons change, my skin tends to get very dry after makeup. However, I find it troublesome to apply multiple products, so I was looking for a single-use product, and that's when I found the Hera oil serum! Compared to a water-based serum, this one contains oil, so the moisturizing effect is really great. Even after using the oil serum and doing my makeup, it doesn't get cakey and my skin stays hydrated all day! I thought the oil-based formula would make it feel oily, but it absorbs quickly into the skin as I apply it. The fast absorption and long-lasting hydration are amazing! I highly recommend this to anyone struggling with dry skin during the seasonal changes.
Cons
There are a few slightly disappointing ingredients, but hopefully it will be improved in a future reformulation.
Tip
The coverage is good, but it works well when mixed with a thicker, matte foundation.

Pros
I've been using this product for a few months after receiving it as a gift. In the fall and winter, I have to apply various oils before bed, otherwise my skin gets extremely dry the next day. The scent may be divisive, but it doesn't bother me that much. After applying toner, essence, and cream, I put this product on and went to sleep, and I didn't feel overly dry. The moisturizing effect is so-so, but I was a bit surprised by the price. For this price, I feel like applying something like jojoba oil would provide longer-lasting hydration. But I'm sure there are other beneficial functions to this product as well.
Cons
I'm not sure if it's just me, but the reason this product is hard for me to use is that a few hours after applying it, or when I wake up, a white cast appears on my face (and I'm not rubbing it too hard, just lightly swiping). I thought it might be because of my other skincare products, so I tried applying it after just using toner, but the same thing happened. I also tried using it after exfoliating with a peeling gel, but the same issue occurred. I wonder if I'm using it incorrectly somehow? If anyone else has experienced this, please let me know what the problem might be.

Pros
The semi-transparent and not too heavy formula is an oil serum~ In the winter, when my skin was dry and exhausted, I used the sample of this product and it was good, so I stocked up on the samples and moisturized my skin throughout the winter. Although it's an oil serum, the application was light like a water-based essence. I was worried that it might feel sticky after application, but while there was a bit of stickiness right after, as time passed and it absorbed, the stickiness decreased. Overall, compared to other oil products, the stickiness and heaviness were not as severe.
Cons
The scent is a bit unpleasant. I'd recommend using it more in the winter than in the summer.
Tip
Rather than applying too much at once, applying a very small amount and spreading it thinly prevents stickiness and helps it absorb quickly.

Pros
Using the sauna daily helps to moisturize my dry skin.
Cons
The amount is small, so it gets used up quickly. It would be better if there was more. But it's still good.
Tip
Using it together with a BB cream gives you a honey-like glowing skin.

Pros
It's perfect for when it's dry in the winter!! It adheres smoothly and the essence-type formula is easy to apply - a must-have product I use every winter
Cons
The amount is too little, it would be great if a bulk-sized large volume version was available ㅜㅜ

Pros
Since it contains oil, it really shines in the dry winter. As an oily-skinned person, I didn't use it in spring, summer, or fall. But when I was pregnant this past winter and my skin was so dry, I tried it and felt like my skin's moisture needs were met.
Cons
Of course, since it has oil in it, the finish feels a bit greasy. And there's a kind of stuffy, pore-clogging feeling. I also sometimes got a few whiteheads from it.

Pros
I used to go to the dermatologist every winter because of my extremely dry skin! The doctor said that if the moisturization is not enough, nothing will work for whitening and wrinkle care... So I've tried all kinds of oils, butters, creams, and lotions! I've been mixing oils and essences for about three years now. I learned about this product through a friend's recommendation, and my vanity has become much more convenient~ Of course, I'm still thoroughly moisturizing, but if I don't use this product for a few days, my face immediately feels tight again~
Cons
The product size is quite small compared to the packaging. It's not extremely expensive, but haha I wish they had a larger size available.

Pros
Be sure to apply this before applying cc cream or foundation. If you apply this and then do your makeup, your makeup will become moisturized as your face is dry.
Cons
In the afternoon, it seems to get quite oily and I tend to get a lot of sebum.

Pros
It has a moisturizing oil-like feel. When applied, it comes out like a serum and doesn't drip. The spreadability is good and it absorbs well into the skin. Excellent moisturizing power.
Cons
Why does my face feel itchy? There are no breakouts, and when I apply it at night and wake up, my skin is super hydrated. But the reason I feel itchy at night is...? Disappointing. Could it be the lavender oil?
