The downside of the liquid type is that it tends to drip, making application a bit tricky. I ended up using it in place of toner. However, after applying it and sleeping, I woke up with about a dozen new blemishes. I suspect the oil or fragrance ingredients don't agree with my skin. Also, while it was fine with other products, it seems to clash with Primera's hydrating cream. (I've never had issues with the other products.) It might have been too rich for my skin.

The liquid formula absorbs incredibly fast. Plus, the scent isn't overpowering.

더 퍼스트 제너츄어 셀 에센셜 소스

In my personal opinion, it pairs well with the noni ampoule! Applying just these two leaves my skin feeling plump and hydrated.

The downside is that it's not very well-known. This makes it hard to find in stores, and when trying to buy online, there's a huge price difference between the official website and other sites, leaving me unsure where to purchase. Because of this, I'm considering switching to a different product.

As someone with severe deep dryness, I've never found a toner that could tackle it on its own. But this Essential Source - is it because it's not just a skin or toner? The texture is similar to a toner, but applying this twice seems to address my deep dryness. I received it as a gift and was pleasantly surprised by how well it works.

Since it's used before the main essence, you don't need to apply a lot. I use a very small amount, just enough to spread over the skin. While it feels light, the ingredients seem potent as even a small amount feels sufficiently absorbed.

There are no drawbacks. It applies lightly and absorbs well, making it perfect to use before the next step of applying the main essence.

It absorbs well, is gentle, and has almost no scent. I had a preconception that O'hui products would have a strong and heavy fragrance, but I was surprised that it barely had any scent when applied and absorbed lightly. Since it's used before the main essence, it might be designed to be lightweight, but I appreciated how refreshingly it went on. With O'hui having many main essence lines like Ampoule Advanced, it feels great to use this as a light skin prep before applying those essences. It's been a while since I've purchased an O'hui product, and I'm satisfied with this one.

As expected with O HUI products, the price isn't exactly budget-friendly. However, if you search online diligently, you can find it at discounted prices. If you're looking for a product with intense hydration, you might find this a bit lacking due to its lightweight nature.

I'm currently using O HUI The First Line for my base products. Even though I have dry skin, I dislike sticky textures, and using only rich products tends to cause blemishes. This has become my go-to product. It's lightweight and builds up thinly without causing any blemishes, which I love.

Rather than applying it with your hands, I recommend using a cotton pad to gently exfoliate like you would with a toner, or doing a skin pack. It seems to calm the skin quickly, which I really appreciate.

The price point isn't exactly budget-friendly... But honestly, I couldn't find any real drawbacks with the product itself while using it.

This water-based formula absorbs quickly and is great for dry skin. Its fast absorption makes it perfect for a light application before makeup in the morning. It feels even more hydrating than a skin softener, so I always make sure to apply it.

Given its lightweight formula, an additional essence is definitely necessary

It's great for a light and refreshing application. It feels like a toner but works like an essence~ I've been using it for a long time and still love it!

Some people say it's expensive, but for someone like me with very dry skin, an oily nose, and prone to blemishes, I can tolerate this price.

Even with my extremely dry skin, there's no tightness! I've truly found my holy grail skincare product!

Well, the O HUI Genechture line can sometimes be irritating for sensitive skin. But I can't find anything better, so I keep using the full set.

This isn't just a toner you wipe on. When you apply it right after washing your face, your skin literally drinks up the hydration. I think I'll be using this for life!

The only downside is the price. It works great, but it's just too expensive

My skin feels soft and well-balanced after using this product

It feels sticky on the skin. It's also quite irritating. The price is steep, which makes it a bit of a burden.

The hydration is great. However, it might be a bit lacking in moisture during the winter months.

There is a slight oily feeling, but it doesn't seem to last very long.

I was suffering from millet acne, but not only did I feel a significant improvement after using this, but my skin also seemed to gain more moisture, which was very helpful.
I found this while looking for something for my acne, and it's been great. My skin feels like it's getting better and better.
