It absorbs quickly and has a non-sticky finish, which I really liked.
ConsIt feels like I'm applying 100% water without any oil, but it doesn't seem to resolve the issue of inner dryness. You're supposed to pump it twice, but even with repeated application, there's a lack of a truly moisturized feeling. And the second ingredient is a cautionary one... Not all products with cautionary ingredients are bad, but if it's not a perfect match, it might be better to go for one without those kinds of ingredients. The price range is also on the higher side.

I tried it since my skin is dry and lacks sebum, and it definitely has good moisture and absorbs quickly, making my skin firm. In fact, there are some basic skincare products that focus on moisture but the moisture easily evaporates, making the skin dry again, but this one feels like it absorbs right away, which I liked.
ConsSince it lacks sebum, those with extremely dry skin like me need to apply a cream with a rich, sebum-heavy formula on top. I normally use the Physiogel cream, so this wasn't a big issue for me.
TipUse together with a cream that has a lot of sebum!

After 8 hours outdoors and 5 hours on a plane, I didn't feel any dryness even though I forgot to apply the cream. It has great lasting power and incredible moisture. 2. As soon as I apply it, my skin feels comfortable and moisturized. When my skin is sensitive, using this makes me feel at ease and there's no irritation. It's truly gentle. 3. The texture is similar to a gel, but the spreadability and absorption are both great. The more I apply, the better it lasts. Among the serums I've tried, this is one of the most satisfying in terms of effectiveness, so I'm considering repurchasing it once I finish the others.
ConsThe price is a bit high ㅠㅠ? And for those whose oil-moisture balance is off, since this is a moisturizing serum, you'll need to make sure your oil-moisture balance is well-adjusted.

As the name suggests, it was great at replenishing moisture! If your skin is extremely dry or you're looking for a winter moisture booster, I'd recommend this product!!
ConsHowever, when I used this product as is in Korea, it became a total breakout disaster due to the excessive oiliness... Was it because the product had a lot of oil but lacked moisture? I'd strongly advise those with combination or oily skin to steer clear of this...

When applied, the skin definitely feels different.
ConsIt's mainly focused on hydration, so there's almost no oiliness. Those with very dry skin may want to apply an essence with more oil content as well.

On days when I don't use it, my skin feels dull and lifeless But on days when I do use it, my skin looks so vibrant and alive! It feels like it's filling in the loose, slack areas in my skin one by one, rebuilding that firm, resilient skin texture Even when I was younger and went out without any makeup, my face still had a healthy glow While it may not be as youthful as back then, this product at least helps me hold onto that remaining radiance ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ And the packaging! The pump-style dispenser is neat and tidy, and the protective cap helps reduce air exposure, which is great One pump covers my entire face The formula is like a water-type, so it spreads smoothly and absorbs quickly I usually do one light layer all over my face with one pump, then add a little extra around my under-eye area, forehead, and between my brows where wrinkles tend to form.
ConsWhile it does have a moisturizing effect, it lacks an oily/sebum-like feel, so it may not be enough for those with dry skin types Dry skin types need a balance of both moisture and oil/sebum to really feel hydrated In that sense, this product falls a bit short It's great for oily or combination skin types, but for dry skin, you may need to add an extra product to get that fully nourished feeling And since it's fragrance-free, those who enjoy the aromatherapy aspect of skincare won't find that here ㅜ But since fragrance can often cause irritation, it's probably better to get that scent fix from body lotions or hand creams instead ㅋㅋㅋ
