The minimalist typographic label and the round, milky yellow container itself are also cute overall. Personally, the color is not my favorite and it's not high-end, but it's affordable, and the contents, whether cosmetics or human, are what's important. The contents are sufficiently luxurious by my standards. The medium consistency allows me to apply it with bare hands, which is convenient. It's not too thin, and just a few applications are enough to feel the moisturizing effects. It absorbs quickly without any heaviness or residue, even with repeated application. When I received the product, my skin was in really bad shape. I didn't expect such a great product, so I didn't take any photos, but the calming effect is almost unbelievable. By the second day of use, the minor blemishes were gone, and the major issues had subsided significantly. The long-standing sebum and uneven texture remain, but the sticky, oily residue from lack of moisture and leftover skincare products, as well as the patchy peeling, have been effectively addressed. Even in my early 20s, my skin is so dry that I'd get fine lines if I skipped skincare, even for a day, whether in the humid summer or dry winter. I used to need both thin and thick formulas, applying them manually over 10 times a day, but this one product alone, applied just 5 times, keeps my skin hydrated until the next day. The difference I felt on the second day was truly life-changing. I recommended it to my combination-skinned mom, and she said it calms the heat flushing on her face, so I'll be getting her one soon too. I may have praised it excessively, but I've been completely honest - this is an amazing product for me.
ConsWhile it's excellent for soothing and deep hydration, I wouldn't recommend using this as the sole skincare product in the winter for those with severely dry skin. Of course, it won't dry out the skin, but still, it may not be enough on its own. The unusual lemon-floral scent with an ambiguous weight is likely to be divisive. Personally, I found it neither too juvenile nor too old-fashioned, but my mom really disliked the smell, calling it a "men's cologne" scent. Individually, I'm not a big fan of the container color. It does complement the lemon fragrance and provides a refreshing, balancing feel to the scent's weight, but the slightly childish vibe makes me wish it had leaned more towards a creamy tone.

Although I haven't used it extensively yet, I can share my first impression. It's not a water-based skin, but rather a serum-type skin. Being a ceramide-based skin, just one pump provides quite a moisturizing effect. The oil-water balance also seems great! As I have combination-dry skin, it doesn't get affected by the seasons and I think I can use it well. Those with oily skin might find it suitable for the winter. Most importantly, it has a mild acidic pH that's good for the skin, and the ingredients are so great that I'll definitely repurchase it once I finish this bottle. 👍👍 The pump packaging is also hygienic to use.
ConsThe fragrance is like a natural herbal scent since there are no artificial fragrances. I personally like this, but there may be some who dislike it. However, the scent is only noticeable when you first apply it, and it fades away soon after.
TipI also use it as a body lotion instead of regular body lotions. It's just perfect for my neutral-toned body. In the summer, regular body lotions feel too heavy, but this provides just the right amount of moisture and hydration without any stickiness. It gets absorbed completely, which I really love. ㅋㅋㅋ
