ConsIt's heavy, but it doesn't provide enough inner moisture. It just sits on the surface without being absorbed, leaving an oily sheen.

Just try it out - there's a slight stickiness, but it's fine to use in the evening.
ConsHowever, the stickiness is still a bit disappointing.

I have large pores, combination oily skin, sensitive skin, and my face gets stuffy and flushed with inflammation. (T_T) There were no particular troubles, and the moisturizing was good! But when I applied it alone, it had a shiny, oily feeling on the skin surface, if you know what I mean. So I mixed it with a gel, and this is really, really good!!! The scent is nice too. Since it's 30ml, it can be used for quite a long time, which is also good. I'm going to buy it again after using it up~~
ConsThe disappointing part is not that much, but when used alone, it has a shiny, oily feeling on the surface. When mixed with toner, gel, lotion, cream, etc., it's super great.
TipWhen using on the face, I recommend mixing it with other basic products rather than using it alone! It's super moisturizing. For those who don't get along with creams, try mixing your own gel and oil.

I'm in my mid-30s with combination skin. My skin isn't particularly sensitive, and I can generally use any skincare products... though my skin condition does tend to change a bit. As winter came, my skin started getting quite dry, so I did a thorough search to find a good facial oil to add some moisture. I came across this product that was recommended on the Gat0 Beauty Pro program. 🌷 Texture and Formulation It's a rather heavy oil-based product. The texture is slightly matte but silky. It doesn't get absorbed immediately when applied - you need to gently pat it in. But the moisturizing effect is quite good. As soon as I apply this, the tightness in my face goes away. However, it does feel a bit heavy, so I tend to use it mainly at night before bed. These days, since I don't need to do much makeup during the day, I've been using it in the daytime as well. 🌷 Scent and Efficacy There's no strong scent, just a mild, nutty oil fragrance. It doesn't hit you in the face. They claim this product is rich in nutrients that are good for skin aging and elasticity, but I didn't notice those effects in the short term. But the moisturizing power is definitely impressive.
ConsThe oil is quite rich and heavy, and there's a noticeable oiliness, so I wouldn't recommend using it right before makeup.

Spreadability It is a transparent oil-based formula. It feels a bit heavy. I find that when I apply it to my face, it makes me look too shiny, so I've been using it on my body and hair instead. 2. Absorption The absorption seems faster than expected. 3. Moisturizing Power In the transitional seasons, it seems to have excellent moisturizing power!! 4. Recommended Skin Type It is suitable for dry skin. These days, I've been getting a lot of neck wrinkles, so I've been applying it to my neck frequently and it's been great :) 5. Volume I bought it online from Tony Mori, and I received 3 samples of 5ml each, so 15ml in total. It's small, so it's really convenient to carry around ㅋㅋ It seems great that it can be used in multiple places When my hair was longer, I used to apply it frequently to the ends, but now that I've cut it short, it feels a bit heavy on my current hairstyle. It seems better to use it on longer hair.
ConsIt feels a bit heavy and shiny on my face, which is disappointing. ㅜ
TipI apply it lightly to the ends after drying my hair. It's also okay to apply it to the neck area. It's good for nail care too I heard you can mix it with foundation and use it, so I'll have to try that out.

ConsWhen used alone, it can feel like it's sitting on top of the skin and be too oily Sometimes the oiliness can cause small bumps to appear
TipAdding a drop to your foam cleanser makes for a moisturizing cleanse It can be used as an all-in-one base (toner + 3 drops of oil) - put it in a mist bottle and spray it on when your skin feels dry, it's not irritating and instantly hydrates, guaranteeing a honey-like complexion Adding it to a body lotion that lacks moisture turns it into your own personalized body lotion and hand cream!!

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsThe oil itself is a bit heavy, so at first I had trouble adjusting the amount and felt like it wasn't absorbing well. But the next day, when I applied it with the right amount, it absorbed really well. The moisturizing effect was also good, and my skin condition remained good until the next day's application. I recommend this to those with combination/dry skin. The scent of black tea was also pleasant when applying it.^^
ConsIf I can't adjust the amount properly, my face gets excessively shiny, so I think I'll have to apply it only in the evenings! It's a bit of a shame that the formula is a bit heavy.
TipSqueezing out a small amount (about the size of a pinky nail) and absorbing it well, and if it still feels insufficient, applying the same amount again works great without making my skin act up!! Applying it in the evening before bed rather than in the morning keeps my face in good condition until the morning!

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsI was selected as a Hwahae Trial Reviewer and have been using the oil for about 3 weeks. Here's what I've found: Skin Type: Combination (leaning more towards oily) Texture: It applies smoothly and has a slippery, oily feel to it. Absorption: When I first applied 4-5 drops, it didn't seem to absorb fully, even after some time, and left a somewhat greasy feeling. But when I reduced the amount to about 2-3 drops, it absorbed nicely without too much residual oiliness. Moisturizing Power: The moisturizing effect is quite good, as you'd expect from an oil. I didn't experience any tightness or dryness. Longevity: Applying it in the evening, my skin felt hydrated until the next morning. When I applied it in the morning, there was even some excess oil coming through my makeup later in the day, so I've been using just a tiny amount in the mornings. The longevity seems very good.
ConsRather than drawbacks, I'd offer some tips based on skin type. For oily skin types, you may not even need to use an oil, as it could lead to excessive greasiness and makeup slippage. For dry skin types, the Laneige products are on the pricier side, but try to catch them during sales to get a good deal! ヾ(๑╹◡╹)ﾉ"
TipIt seems like using just 2-3 drops is the sweet spot, rather than applying too much.

My dry skin felt sufficiently moisturized, which was great! The scent was not bad either, and when I applied it before bed and went to sleep, my skin felt soft the next day ~ I also didn't get any breakouts, and my skin texture really improved!
ConsAlthough the product claims to be a moisturizing one, it didn't turn out to be exceptional. There were also times when I felt it was overly oily or just sat on the surface of my skin.
TipIf I cleanse my face, apply the oil, and then use a cream the next day, my skin doesn't even peel off anymore :)

Relatively refreshing I thought oils were generally heavy and oily, but this one absorbs incredibly fast and there's no burden at all even if I apply it before putting on my base in the morning. However, it's not completely refreshing either - it lives up to its name. It's a real oil. I also tried the serum, and that felt like it was floating on my face, but this one doesn't. 2. Perfect for glowy makeup After applying this and letting it absorb, putting on cushion foundation makes my skin look so beautiful. Of course, you have to apply it moderately. Even in the summer, when the sides of my nose and around my mouth tend to get cakey, my makeup doesn't budge at all after using this. I applied this, sunscreen, and primer on my nose, and I didn't feel like excess oil was coming through.
Cons1. May be burdensome for oily skin Even though I have combination skin and didn't feel burdened when applying it, as you all know, if you have a lot of acne-prone areas or active sebum production in the areas you apply this, it could potentially cause more breakouts. 2. The price is a bit burdensome I've only tried the serum, so I'm not sure, but the volume is large, so it seems reasonably priced... I'm not sure. Tonymoly is a drugstore brand, so they have a lot of sales. I haven't tried any other drugstore skincare besides Innisfree, but this seems nice.
TipI apply this around my eyes before bed.
