Pros
Snail secretion filtrate, containing 96% of the product, is excellent for skin regeneration and hydration, and helps to improve skin texture.
Cons
The sticky formulation may polarize the user experience, and it may irritate sensitive skin.
Tip
After using the toner, applying the essence increases the absorption.

Pros
My skin is quite sensitive, but after using it for 2 weeks, my skin became much smoother. So I quickly ordered a few more bottles... ㅜㅜ From the 3rd week, I've been feeling like my skin is turning upside down. I'm not sure if it's because of the seasonal change or this product, but I'll keep observing and post an update later~!
Cons
It doesn't seem irritating, but if you apply a lot, it does become irritating~

Pros
My skin has become silky smooth after using it for a few days... Wow, this product is really famous overseas too, isn't it?!
Cons
It was fine, except for a few cautionary ingredients! I didn't really feel like anything was missing:)

Pros
For a while I didn't use it, and after using up the ampoule, I applied this product again for about a week, but my skin became abnormal, so I made a correction. 1. It's extremely gentle. On days when I over-cleansed or when my skin became sensitive from a lot of touching, I had to apply skincare with tears in my eyes because it stung, but this product doesn't sting at all even when applied to sensitive skin. >>> It still doesn't sting when applying, and it spreads smoothly. 2. The moisture or oil content is not excessive. I really hate products that feel heavy or sit on the skin, but this product absorbs quickly and doesn't leave an oily residue after absorption, but it's not lacking in moisture either. It has just the right amount of moisturizing, the kind that makes the skin feel supple. It's a great product to use in the morning. >>> At first, it looks glossy and seems to be absorbed well, but after just an hour, oil starts to come up. My skin feels so stuffy... But my inner skin is extremely dry, so with the oil coming up, my face became itchy, and I thought I was going to die. 3. After applying, it leaves a beautiful glow on the skin. >>> It does leave a glow, but after a while, it's not a dewy glow, but an oily, shiny look.
Cons
I completely rewrote the review, considering that my skin is not particularly sensitive. 1. My skin texture is completely ruined. It's really bad... Sometimes when I use a mismatched cushion or sunscreen, my skin texture rapidly deteriorates, and small bumps or uneven texture become prominent, but this is really bad. There are bumps all over my face. I was unsure if it was because of the Isoi spot cream I used together, but when I only used the cream, my skin texture was fine, so it's definitely because of this product. 2. It's drying and itchy. I'm not sure if it's because it's drying or due to some kind of allergy, but my skin has never itched from using a skincare product before, so I don't know what to do. If this continues throughout the week, I'll have to visit a dermatologist. It feels like ants are crawling all over my skin. 3. It's drying, but the oil content is too high. My inner skin is extremely dry, and it's not even that moisturizing, but after a while, it turns into an oily mess. It feels like I have a layer of Vaseline on my face. It's too itchy and stuffy. Also, I'm not sure if it's because of this product, but I've never had acne on my cheeks before, and now I do. I'm really shocked, whether it's just a coincidence or because of this product. The COSRX products don't seem to have bad ingredients, but both my mom and I had our skin completely disrupted, so I won't be able to use it anymore. The only thing that worked okay was the propolis ampoule.

Pros
1. It evens out the skin tone. You can feel your skin becoming more uniform just by applying it and sleeping overnight. When used consistently, the pigmentation also visibly faded. (I used the Gokujyun Citrus Serum consistently for about 3-4 bottles, and it was better value for money. The Gokujyun is more moisturizing, but the skin improvement was similar.) 2. The skin feels tighter and fine lines have reduced. It also feels like it's rebuilding the weakened skin barrier. 3. It's fragrance-free and affordable. It's really great to use without burden. It seems like it will last a long time.
Cons
*The phenoxyethanol doesn't cause any breakouts, but it feels a bit drying, so using a moisturizing toner and cream before and after using it worked well. *The downside is that it absorbs slowly, so you need to pat it in thoroughly, but it doesn't leave a residue and gets fully absorbed within 2-30 seconds.
Tip
*3 pumps can cover the entire face.

Pros
I am extremely satisfied. The price is very affordable compared to the quantity, so I bought it thinking I was getting a bargain. My skin type is normally oily, so when I wake up in the morning, my face is usually greasy. But I also have severe dryness inside. After using it for about 3 days, I noticed a difference in my skin when I washed my face in the morning. It felt smoother and the unevenness had disappeared. My skin felt healthier. After using it daily for about a week, I definitely feel that my skin absorbs moisturizers, creams, and makeup better than before. The skin texture has improved, and it feels plump and supple. Just with basic skincare, my skin now has a subtle glow. This is exactly the kind of skin I've been wanting, so I highly recommend it.
Cons
The only downside is that since it's made with snail secretion, when you pump it out, it kind of oozes out like mucus. So there is a bit of product wastage. But I love it so much that I don't want to waste even that little bit.
Tip
At night, I cleanse, apply this essence, then moisturizer, eye cream, and a sleeping pack. When I wake up the next day, my skin is glowing.

Pros
Among the CosRX essences, this one is the least drying. This product contains snail secretion filtrate, so I guess you could say it's more stretchy? Thanks to that, my skin doesn't feel tight at all, and when I wake up in the morning, my skin feels so smooth.
Cons
The disappointing part is.. my skin feels stuffy..ㅜㅜ I think I need to use the right amount when applying it.
