My skin is no longer as dry, and the blemishes I had developed due to recent stress and a busy schedule have significantly diminished. My skin tone has also become brighter.
ConsIt's expensive. I spent over 120,000 won on it, but I can't use it for long.

As I have sensitive skin, I cannot use products with irritants, fermented ingredients, natural ingredients, or propolis. I use this product 2-3 times a week, usually at night when I feel tightness during the day after applying makeup. When I wake up, my skin is so hydrated and dewy that I don't even want to wash my face. It really helps with my dry skin. I recommend using this when your skin's moisture balance is disrupted or when regular toners don't seem to be enough for your dryness. This is a highly nourishing aesthetic product, so I personally think using it daily might be too much. Make sure to do a proper deep cleansing and exfoliation before using this to avoid any adverse effects. I recommend this for both dry and dehydrated skin types. Even my sibling with acne-prone skin uses this and finds their blemishes significantly reduced in the morning. However, I'm not sure how effective it would be for extremely oily or problematic skin types.
ConsThe product is quite expensive, and proper pre- and post-use care (deep cleansing & sticky? massage) is also important. Proper dosage control is crucial, as using too much of the final 3-step cream can easily lead to breakouts. When used correctly, it's an amazing product, but...ㅜㅜㅠ
Tip1. Deep cleansing (exfoliation, sebum control, acne extraction) - I tend to do this a bit excessively. I apply the Sibasan Pigmal cream all over my face, sleep with it overnight, and then use the product the next night. Or I use AHA/BHA lotions for exfoliation, and extract any visible blackheads or whiteheads on my nose and cheeks. For basic cleansing, I use a little less than the recommended amount of the Leepo powder wash, lathering it up gently, or the Seedwall Kakadu gel cleanser. (In summer, I do this once a week / currently, I do it every 2-3 weeks or even less frequently) 2. Finish with a very lightweight water-based toner, or go straight to applying the Step 1 booster - Apply only 4-5 drops, about the size of an ant's egg, on the cheeks, nose, chin, and forehead, and spread it evenly. The instructions say to fully absorb it, but I just spread it and gently pat it in 3 times with my palms before moving on to the next step. 3. Apply Step 2 the same way, using 4-5 drops. This is also a very watery formula, so you have to spread it immediately after applying, or it will start to drip. 4. There's a "sticky? massage" technique you can find on YouTube or Naver. After Steps 1 and 2, you press and pat the product into the skin to help it absorb deeply. At first, it feels slippery, but at some point it will start to feel sticky and adhere to your skin. That's when you can move on to the next step. 5. Apply the Step 3 cream. Adjust the amount based on the weather and your skin condition. Don't apply it thickly and moisturize, but rather in a thin, coating layer, like how you'd apply a thin layer of foundation. I use an amount between a 10-won and 50-won coin. The goal is a slightly dewy, not overly oily, finish. 6. If needed, you can add the Mats cream on top. I haven't tried this yet, but if your skin feels too tight, adding a bit more on top could help. 7. Sufficient sleep... Honestly, even just 3-4 hours of sleep can give you amazing results the next day when you look in the mirror.

The effects seem good~The tightness has also decreased a lot. The application is similar to an ampoule. I'm seeing results, so I'm using it for the second time.
ConsThere's a bit of stickiness after applying the serum, and the price is...too expensive. It's good, but the price is burdensome. In the beginning, it may cause some trouble, but after using it a few times, it's fine~~

ConsThe quantity is a bit small, but...I only need to use a small amount and it still leaves my skin feeling so smooth and supple, so I think it lasts longer than for others✌🏻
TipWhen applying, gently roll it on your skin~~roll~~and it absorbs much faster, allowing your skin to really soak it in☝🏼

Now that it's open, come in, moisture!! Does it feel like that?? Haha, just my thoughts, but that's how it feels. The tightness is gone~
ConsThe hassle of having to apply three things with the devilish price is really... If it's not good, I really wouldn't have used it!!!
TipThey said that when using it for the first time, there could be trouble, so you should use a little at a time and increase the amount. I also started with just a drop at first haha

My skin is normally dry, but it has good texture with minimal pores, and I only get the occasional blemish around my menstrual cycle. Overall, my skin is in good condition.
ConsHowever, about 2 weeks into using the product, my face started to feel irritated and I developed a breakout of small bumps. When I reached out to the blog, they said that it's common for some people to not react well to the product at first, and advised me to reduce the amount I was using. But as time went on, my face just got more red, irritated, and covered in small bumps. It was only then that I looked closer at the ingredients and realized there were a lot of components that weren't good for my skin. I found a gentler product and have been using that for about 2 months now, which has helped restore my skin to its original state. It was an expensive lesson, but I'm glad I was able to get my skin back to normal. I won't be purchasing this product again.

Even though I have very dry, sensitive, and troublesome skin, the tightness has definitely improved. The formulas of Ampoule 1 and 2 are a bit different, but using them together has a synergistic effect. The ingredients are not 100% satisfactory, but since I'm able to use them without any issues on my sensitive skin, I'm fairly satisfied.
ConsI wish I could purchase the Ampoule 1 and Ampoule 2 separately, instead of having to buy the whole Balsam Kit set. I only use the Atobarrier Cream, so the cream included in the kit is a bit disappointing for me.

I tend to have a lot of tightness, but after using this, it's gotten better.
ConsI didn't know there would be so many harmful ingredients... There's no way to know. I was a bit surprised haha. ***After 2 years of daily use*** It's too irritating.. My skin has become very weak. I received 15 sets as a gift and stopped using it. I really liked it at first.. but the more I used it, the weaker my skin became. It took about 1-2 years to recover. I don't use it anymore, the remaining ones are on the back of my hand.

But since using the Siba Mountain product, I've definitely felt less dryness, tightness, and dehydration. I also didn't need to use mist at the office.
ConsI bought it without knowing the ingredients at all. Fortunately, I didn't have any skin issues.
TipMake sure to pat it in thoroughly for full absorption.
