I've almost used up a whole bottle now~ The application is smooth and it absorbs well. Thanks to the oil content, it leaves a nice soft and supple feeling on the skin~ If you apply it before makeup, it works great as a primer. ㅎㅎ I think this would be perfect for people who don't like the slippery feeling of oils, as it gets absorbed completely without any greasiness. It's easy to use lightly.
ConsIt might not be very effective for extremely dry skin. It just seems to improve skin texture rather than deeply hydrating. Also, there's a slight stinging sensation when I first apply it. ㅜㅜ I'd recommend against using this if you have sensitive skin.
TipAfter cleansing and letting the skin absorb the moisture, spraying a facial mist and then applying this is the best routine!!

After applying, there's a glow to the skin, not an oily feeling. After using it consistently for over a week, my skin feels brighter.
ConsI don't like the oily feeling, so it's fine for me, but it may not suit those with dry skin.

The mini mist was also part of the set for 21,000 won. First, I came home and used it in the evening, and I immediately repurchased one that same evening. It seems to be the perfect product for my extremely dry skin. First of all, the application is artistic, and it absorbs well without being greasy. For people with extremely dry skin, this oil-based serum seems to be just right. Especially in the fall like this. I especially like dewy makeup, so I always use a serum in the basic skincare step before makeup, and these days I'm using this... My skin looks dewy^^ Highly recommended.
ConsIt would be better if it was a little cheaper. When there's no event, it's almost 30,000 won. But the product quality is good^^
TipIf you apply an oil serum in the basic skincare step before makeup, it will be good for expressing a dewy skin. I have extremely dry skin, so it's fine for me to apply both the snail serum and the oil serum, as they absorb well. And if you shake it with the mist, you can use it as an oil mist.

I have very dry skin, but after using this, it's no longer dry! I'm on my second bottle now!
ConsThe volume is too small ㅠㅠ I wish they would come out with a larger size

Although it's called an oil, it doesn't feel slippery, which I liked. There was no dryness. I applied it thinly and had to reapply it about twice, but there was no tightness and it wasn't dry.
ConsI wouldn't recommend this to those with extremely dry skin. It doesn't seem to have a great cost-to-performance ratio.

It's said to be good for acne and acne scars, so I've been using it. In the winter, my skin gets very dry, but regular oils are too greasy for me... This one is refreshing and I like it.
ConsThere's really nothing I'm dissatisfied with.

Although it is an oil, it is a serum-type oil, so even combination skin types can use it. 2. It is an oil, but it does not feel greasy and absorbs completely into the skin, leaving it moisturized without any stickiness. 3. When applied, it transforms into a water-like texture with excellent spreadability (similar to a hydrating ampoule). 4. Considering it contains white truffle extract, the price is quite affordable (on sale for 22,400 won for 50ml). 5. The ingredients are also reasonably good. My skin suddenly became extremely dry in the winter, with daily flaking and makeup looking cakey, so when I heard that Olive Young had released a white truffle oil, I decided to test it out. To my surprise, it did not leave a greasy residue like regular oils, and absorbed smoothly like an ampoule, so I immediately purchased it during the sale. Actually, I bought it without even checking the ingredients, but later found that the ingredients were good and it did not cause any breakouts on my skin! It was like a revelation, breaking the misconception that oily skin types should not use oils. It provided the perfect balance of oil and moisture my skin needed! My skin is quite unique, being extremely dry in spring, fall, and winter, with an oily T-zone, and becoming oily in the summer. So I usually have to switch up my skincare products by season, but this serum-like oil worked great for me all year round! I've repurchased it once and may buy it again, though I'm also open to trying other great products that may come along. But this product was truly revolutionary for me - it made me realize that oils don't have to feel heavy, and can be lightweight and comfortable to use.
Cons1. The price...? It may be a bit burdensome for students. 2. For dry skin types, this oil alone might not be enough. But I can't really pinpoint any major downsides to this product. It didn't give me any dramatic effects, positive or negative, so it's a product that's 'averagely appealing' to me.
TipIn the winter, I mix this product with another oil and lightly apply a cream on top, which prevents my makeup from looking cakey. In the summer, those with oily skin types can probably use this product alone.

After using this, my skin texture improved tremendously and became incredibly soft and smooth! It's best to forget the misconception that it's an oily drop - it won't make your skin slippery or greasy at all. At first, I was also worried it would be too slick and oily, but not at all! It absorbs well and leaves a refreshing finish. The moisturizing power is also quite impressive - this has become a holy grail product for me!
ConsI bought it expecting great moisturizing and whitening effects, but the moisturizing wasn't as amazing as I had hoped. And as for whitening, it's best not to have high expectations, as I haven't seen any results yet. :( I bought it for whitening purposes, but the unexpected benefit of improving skin texture came out instead. And the fact that it gets used up relatively quickly is a bit disappointing, if that can be considered a downside.

When I wake up in the morning, my next day's makeup applies really well.
ConsFor oily skin types, this oil product is not really suitable.. haha Even for extremely dry skin types, using just this alone may not be enough to fully hydrate.

ConsIf possible, I'd rather use it in the winter than in the summer, since I have oily skin.
