Skinceuticals does not have any satisfactory products other than CE Ferulic.
This is based on the criteria of sensitive dry skin.

To address dryness, Wellauge has lower moisture content.
While they claim to have added independent ingredients for anti-aging or moisturizing, the cost-effectiveness seems too low.
For sensitive skin, there is a slight stinging sensation, which is the biggest issue, so I won't be repurchasing.

The absorption power of the brand Skinceuticals is unparalleled for those in their 30s with dry, sensitive, and thin skin.

하이드레이팅 B5

Rather than just a tip, it's also important to apply it to the neck area! If you apply it before makeup, make sure to let it absorb fully before doing your makeup!

The price was a bit disappointing!! Other than the price, it's a decent serum!

This is a viscous serum with a medium, non-heavy texture.
It applies well to the skin without feeling greasy. It is very hydrating, so the skin does not feel dry or tight, and it helps improve dehydration. The inclusion of vitamin B5 provides good moisturizing properties, making the skin feel plump, smooth, and soft. When using this serum during times of poor skin condition, the dryness decreases, and the skin gains a nourished feel, visibly improving over time. The serum applies without stickiness and leaves a hydrated, dewy complexion.
The dropper-type packaging makes it easy to use.
After applying this serum, the skin looks smooth and supple, like a glowing, healthy complexion. This seems to be a versatile serum that can be used comfortably year-round.🤩

The product is called a water glow serum, but I don't really feel a water glow effect.

It feels like immediate absorption. Although sensitive, I am using it without any trouble.

I sometimes apply it to my husband, and when used with a face mask or device, his face becomes radiant and glowing.

Although I have naturally dry skin that doesn't usually get acne, it seems like I don't get along with product B, as small blemishes have been popping up.

The type that becomes plump and supple when applied, immediately providing a moisturizing sensation to the skin.
Excellent spreadability that allows the entire face to be covered with just a small amount.

Evil pricing,,?
The CE ferulic is also expensive,,
The ingredients are not even that expensively formulated..

Soft absorbency, moisturized skin
An almost perfect ampoule
Especially, since CE ferulic can be drying,
the Hydrating B5 can be used to balance it out

Since it's available at duty-free shops, stocking up when it's on sale could be a good idea!

If it weren't for the price, I'd definitely stock up on this product - it's that effective and worth it.

I've been using CE Ferulic and alternating it with other products based on my skin condition.
After using this, I feel like there's no more flaky skin on my forehead, and my hands definitely feel softer and smoother.
It's really nice.

If you use only this essence alone, those with extremely dry skin may find it a bit drying. I apply this product and then follow up with a slightly richer essence.

🤷‍♀️ The price...?
The price is quite steep... I purchased it at the duty-free shop, and as far as I know, it's only sold at the Shilla Duty-Free Shop. The dollar exchange rate is very high, but the price is still relatively cheaper at the duty-free shop.

😊 Soft, smooth texture and moisturizing
For someone like me whose biggest skin concern is dehydration, basic skincare is more important than makeup! After using the toner to refine the skin texture, using this product gives me the feeling that the dehydration is well-addressed. As mentioned in the usage instructions, the key is to use only a very small amount.

When my skin barrier is compromised, it stings and my makeup tends to slide off.

It's moisturizing and absorbs quickly! The fragrance-free formula is great, and it applies well under makeup.

Since I have dry skin, the serum seems to be absorbed immediately, but when I apply a cream on top, it feels like the serum is sitting on the surface. Also, it stings every time I apply it. I don't think it suits my skin.

The texture is smooth and gentle when applied.

Although it's recommended to use morning and night, I only used it in the evenings as it seemed to make my routine heavier with sunscreen. Even so, the effects were still quite good.

The Retexturizing Activator Serum helps reduce the concern of rough skin and provides moisture to the skin, creating a natural skin glow. I squeezed out a generous amount using the dropper, and although I thought a highly nourishing essence would be very sticky, the smooth application was amazing. It absorbs quickly without any stickiness, leaving a well-hydrated feel, making it the perfect base serum for the dry season. 
Even without using a separate exfoliating product, rough areas and dead skin do not form, allowing makeup to apply well and look great. As someone with skin sensitivity, using harsh exfoliating products often leads to more trouble, but this serum can tackle both rough skin and radiance at once.
On days when my skin condition is poor, applying a generous amount and sleeping with it leaves my skin looking brighter and smoother, even more poreless, the next day. I received a sample with my main purchase and used it for about a week, and despite the short period, the effects were so good that I decided to buy the full-size product. 
As someone with atopic dermatitis, switching skincare products can cause my skin to go haywire, but I had no trouble using this serum without any breakouts. I'm so happy to have found such a great product.

With the dropper, you can use just the right amount
The application is very smooth, so you can apply it all over the face~
If you apply it in the morning, your makeup may slightly shift
So I only apply a generous amount at night, and it still keeps my skin very moisturized

If I had to find a downside,
It's the rather expensive price for the volume,,ㅠㅡㅠ
If you apply too much and then put on sunscreen and powder,
It can get cakey, so you need to use an appropriate amount

This is a true life essential item❤️
It is very faithful to the basics
Throughout the winter, I applied this product and didn't feel any dryness at all
A year-round essence that can be used in all seasons
I have combination skin with oily sebum secretion, but the application feels amazing
It absorbs incredibly well and doesn't feel sticky at all
I had absolutely no trouble with it, it's the best👍
