The packaging does look a bit toy-like. I wonder if they couldn't have made it a bit more sophisticated?

While the packaging isn't particularly luxurious, the contents are quite impressive. The texture is similar to a neutral cream - neither too light nor too heavy, but definitely able to provide solid hydration. With its array of well-known ingredients, you might expect visible results, and most importantly, it didn't trigger any blemishes at all throughout the entire time I used it. The price is a bit steep for a road shop brand, but considering it's a global hit product, it doesn't seem overpriced.

The texture is a bit heavy, so I avoid using it in the morning. Also, it's somewhat rich, so I think it might cause pilling if applied before makeup. It's not an emulsion I can use in my morning routine.

I've been using this for about a month. The price is reasonable. It's definitely one of the better emulsions I've tried. I usually only apply emulsions at night, but since this one contains retinol, I've noticed that every morning when I wake up, my skin looks brighter, more hydrated, and firmer. It absorbs well enough without sitting on top of the skin, though it does have a slightly rich texture and feels a bit heavy. However, it does sink in eventually. At first, I got some small blemishes on my forehead, but I don't think it was because of this emulsion - it was probably due to applying a separate oil. Other than that, my skin has only improved, not worsened. It's really much better than emulsions from domestic road shops or The Face Shop. I've also tried emulsions from Laneige and IOPE, but Olay seems to have more visible anti-aging effects than those high-end lines. It won't completely eliminate dark circles, but it does improve overall complexion and boost skin elasticity. It's been a while since I've found an emulsion I'd want to repurchase.

The absorption could be a bit better. Also, it's not readily available in stores. I used to buy it at Costco here in Korea, but nowadays I have to purchase it online.

The anti-aging effects seem quite good. The fragrance is a bit strong, and if you use it daily, you'll go through it quickly.

I bought this in a hurry while traveling, and it was convenient to use since it's an all-in-one product.

While I'm not sure about blemishes, the application doesn't feel smooth when it goes on.

The hydration and lasting power were pretty good for the price.

The container is super convenient for home use, but I wouldn't recommend carrying it around. In Korea, there are many great alternatives (like Happ*kiss...), but if you're abroad, it's worth trying once.

I bought this when I couldn't find affordable, quality Korean cosmetics abroad. Got a two-pack from trusty Costco! Apart from a slight eye sting if applied incorrectly, I've been using it well. It feels a bit heavy for summer, but seems perfect for winter use.

When I apply sunscreen or other products after this, sometimes it pills and rolls off like dead skin cells. It didn't do this before, so I'm not sure why it's happening now. Also, I don't see much benefit in using this alone during winter. Since I've already bought it, I'm only using it at night before bed to avoid wasting it.

I bought this because it's an all-in-one product that promised to finish everything in one go. It might be great for summer use. Hmm, I'm struggling to find more positives, unfortunately...

If you apply just a tad too much, the pilling under makeup is intense. You really need to be careful with the amount - otherwise, it rolls off like dead skin cells.

Hydration, anti-aging, and more - it's a relief to know that one application can provide seven different benefits. With its UV protection, it's like a free pass to skip sunscreen. As someone who's embraced the bare-faced lifestyle, I find this one product often does the trick.

I have combination skin, and after a few hours, it made my face look too shiny.

I think it absorbs well for its price point. It's great for applying without any worry.

I have a dry (lacking in moisture and oil) skin type
Even after applying this, it dries out quickly :(

To be honest, there wasn't much that I liked...
I didn't have any trouble with it..?
I'm not really the type to have a lot of trouble, haha..;

I'm not sure what happened, but I developed closed comedones and something that looked like a sebaceous cyst. I bought several of these creams because they were recommended, but I really regret it now. Please be careful if you're planning to buy this in Hong Kong.

The anti-aging cream and the fact that I bought it in Hong Kong and the price was reasonable.

Even though I didn't apply much, it seems to have caked up and flaked off.
So you really have to use just a tiny amount.
I tried applying foundation on top of it, but the foundation seemed to sit on top, so I've only been using it on its own without foundation.

I used to apply this as the final step before going out with a bare face.
It gave a slight skin-perfecting effect, so I found it nice to apply lightly and head out.
