There is no stickiness, and it applies with a slightly slippery feeling, but the skin absorption is not bad. Right after application, it feels smooth, but as it absorbs into the skin, it leaves the skin feeling soft and moisturized. The ingredients are relatively mild, so there were no breakouts. After applying it generously and allowing it to fully absorb, and then waking up, my skin condition had improved. The formula is not sticky and not burdensome, so it seems it would not be too heavy to use in the summer.
ConsThe ingredients were all good, but it contains phenoxyethanol. Those who are sensitive to this ingredient should definitely check the ingredients.

ConsThe sticky texture might be hit-or-miss for some users, and it could potentially irritate super sensitive skin.
TipFor better absorption, apply this essence after using a toner.

I was so impressed that I quickly ordered two more bottles... However, starting from the third week, I began to feel like my skin was reacting. I'm not sure if it's due to the changing seasons or this product, but I'll keep monitoring and update my review later!
ConsWhile it seems gentle, if you apply too much, it can cause irritation.

Wow, I heard this product is really famous internationally too?!
ConsIt was pretty good overall, just a few ingredients to be cautious about! I didn't really feel like anything was lacking.

It's still incredibly gentle. Even when my skin is super sensitive, it doesn't sting when applied. It glides on smoothly. 2. The hydration and oil balance seemed perfect at first. It absorbed quickly and left my skin feeling plump without being too greasy. I thought it was ideal for morning use. However, after an hour, oil starts to surface. My skin feels suffocated. The deep dryness became severe, causing itchiness due to the combination of inner dehydration and surface oiliness. 3. It does give a nice glow initially. But soon after, instead of a dewy finish, it turns into an oily sheen.
ConsI'm completely rewriting this review. For reference, my skin isn't particularly sensitive. 1. My skin texture is completely ruined. It's really bad. Sometimes when I use an incompatible cushion or sunscreen, my skin texture rapidly deteriorates, showing prominent bumps - not quite like small blemishes, but more like uneven texture. Well, that's exactly what happened all over my face. I was unsure if it was due to this or the ISOI Blemish Cream I was using together, but when I used only the cream, my skin texture was fine. So it's definitely because of this product. 2. It's dry and itchy. I'm not sure if it's itchy because it's dry, or if it's both dry and causing an allergic reaction. This is the first time in my life a cosmetic product has made my skin itch, and I don't know what to do. If this continues all week, I'm considering seeing a dermatologist. It feels like ants are crawling all over my skin. 3. It's dry yet excessively oily. The deep dryness is severe, and it's not even that moisturizing, but miraculously turns into oil after a short while. It feels like a thin layer of Vaseline on my face. It's so itchy and suffocating. Also, I'm not sure if it's because of this, but I've never had blemishes on my cheeks in my life, and for the first time, I got one. I don't know if it's just coincidental timing or because of this product, but it's very shocking. COSRX products don't seem to have particularly bad ingredients, but both my mom and I have had skin reactions, so I don't think I can use them anymore. The Propolis Ampoule was the only one that worked decently for me.

It evens out the complexion beautifully. Even after just one night's use, you can notice a more uniform skin tone. With consistent use, I saw a noticeable reduction in pigmentation. (I've used about 3-4 bottles of G* Yuzu serum consistently, and this one offers better value for money. While G* is more hydrating, the skin improvement was comparable.) 2. It tightens the skin and reduces fine lines. It also feels like it's rebuilding a weakened skin barrier, making it stronger. 3. Fragrance-free and affordable. It's really great for long-term use without any burden.
ConsWhile the phenoxyethanol doesn't cause blemishes, it can feel slightly drying. I found using a hydrating toner and cream before and after application helped with this. The absorption is a bit slow, so you need to pat it in thoroughly. However, it doesn't sit on top of the skin and fully absorbs within 20-30 seconds.
TipThree pumps are enough to cover your entire face.

I bought it thinking it was too good to be true given the price for the amount, but wow, was I pleasantly surprised. My skin type is combination dehydrated, where I wake up with an oily face but still feel deep dryness. After just three days of use, I noticed a difference when washing my face in the morning. My skin felt smoother, like the texture had evened out? It felt healthier overall. After about two weeks of daily use, I definitely noticed an improvement compared to before. Whether I apply emulsion or cream, or even when I put on makeup, everything seems to absorb better. The texture of my skin has visibly improved, becoming more supple and bouncy. Even with just basic skincare, my skin now has this subtle glow. It's honestly the skin I've always dreamed of having. I highly recommend this product!
ConsThere aren't many downsides, but if I had to mention one, it's probably due to the snail mucin. When you pump it out, it has a slightly runny, mucus-like consistency. This means there can be a bit of waste. Since I love it so much, I hate to see even a tiny bit go to waste!
TipFor a honey-like complexion the next day, I use this routine at night: exfoliating toner, this essence, emulsion, eye cream, and then a sleeping pack. Works like a charm!

It exceeded my expectations. My skin feels great the next day. I'm really satisfied.
ConsThere's nothing lacking. No disappointments at all. I'm extremely satisfied.

It contains snail mucin, which gives it a stretchy texture. Thanks to that, my skin doesn't feel tight at all, and when I wake up in the morning, my skin feels silky smooth.
ConsThe downside is that it can feel a bit heavy on the skin. I'd recommend using just the right amount when applying to avoid this issue.
