There's a lot of oil! So the dry parts seem to disappear, but it's too expensive ㅠㅠ
Cons
The price is too expensive! It's expensive, but it's not that great either..ㅠ

My dear brother has sensitive skin and dry skin, so I gave him this product as a gift because the ingredients seemed gentle. But after applying it, his face started itching in less than 10 minutes, so he immediately washed it off and hasn't used it since. Just because a product has gentle ingredients doesn't mean it will work for everyone.
Cons
The price was also expensive, so I tried it out even though I felt bad about it. I have combination skin, with my T-zone and chin area being slightly oily, and the rest being dry. But after applying it, it didn't feel overly moisturizing either. Maybe because of the oil content, I started getting pimples on my chin area, which I didn't have before. So I stopped using it for a while, and the pimples went away. I'm not sure if it's worth the price, and since everyone's skin is different, it just doesn't seem to work well for me. I have no intention of repurchasing it. I was a bit swayed by the celebrity endorsements for the Bona brand, but it seems to have disappointed me more than anything.

I don't usually apply oil separately, but this product is really necessary. On days when my skin is dry or a little taut, makeup just doesn't work well. When I apply this product, my skin becomes the perfect state for makeup. Just take a small amount of the solid product, melt it in the warmth of your palm, and gently pat it onto your face. Applying oil to the skin feels like putting a protective layer on it. If you use too much, it can feel greasy, but a small amount is extremely satisfying. When I purchase this product, I use the accompanying spoon to scoop out the amount, which is hygienic and makes it easy to control the amount I use, making me even more satisfied with the product:)
Cons
It's a bit of a hassle to use at night. When I'm feeling sluggish or tired, I'm tempted to skip this product.. I apply it diligently in the morning before doing my makeup:)

I applied the Bonamedusa Oil Balm instead of a sleeping pack since I have dry skin, and when I woke up, my skin felt moisturized and supple.
Cons
It had a slightly sticky feeling and absorbed quickly, which was a bit disappointing.
Tip
After 20 minutes of using the face mask, I absorbed the remaining essence and applied it.

It's definitely good to apply in the winter. I have dry skin, so I generally like oil products. I apply the oil stick and oil remover, and I like this feeling.
Cons
The price is quite high, so I've been agonizing over it a lot. But I only need to apply a tiny bit, and it covers my entire face without any deficiencies. It's a bit sticky when I apply it before bed, but that's inevitable since it's an oil.
Tip
It's good to apply in the winter. I don't recommend it in the summer.

The final step of the treatment process, a small amount is sufficient to keep the skin well-moisturized. It appears dewy rather than greasy, and is never heavy~
Cons
I'm not sure which product is causing it, but there are times when it feels a bit heavy during the initial application. Even when using a slightly larger amount, it can still feel a bit heavy. If it weren't for the heaviness, this would be the best oil product

As an oil balm, it is not as greasy or heavy as regular face oils. It also absorbs much better.
Cons
The effect is not that great considering the price. For those with very dry skin like me, I don't think it's worth buying at this price. I can't recommend it. It's ineffective, dries out quickly, and doesn't provide much moisture.

It's an oil but it's not oily and it's moisturizing. It also seems to have good absorption.
Cons
You need to exfoliate well to increase absorption. With the change in seasons, I seem to be getting a lot of dead skin.
Tip
It's good to apply it generously in the evening before bed, let it absorb, and then do a face mask before sleeping.

It's more complex, but much better than a face oil. It's not too oily and absorbs well, leaving my skin feeling moisturized.
Cons
Since the weather is still not too dry, I'll have to try it in the winter to really know, but I'm satisfied with it so far.
Tip
You can also mix it into your base and apply it that way.
