Although it's called an oil, the formula is as light as water and absorbs into the skin without any greasiness or tackiness. The watery toner-like texture allows for refreshing hydration. Applying it right after cleansing helps to smooth the skin texture, making the next skincare steps absorb better.
ConsI've been using the Donginbi skincare products step-by-step, but the recently launched Single Essence feels quite similar, and it's been a hassle to apply the products in order, so I haven't been using it lately. It's a shame that despite the high price, its presence isn't strongly felt when it's not there.

I feel incomplete without it now.
ConsThe evil price is burdensome, but I like it. It's not as dramatic as the first time, but it's good in terms of dryness.
TipIt absorbs right away after cleansing.

It absorbs quickly, so there's no burden or heaviness when applying it. The texture is a bit lighter than the Yun-Jo Essence, flowing more lightly. The dropper is convenient, hygienic, and great for use in the winter. I can't help but compare it to the Yun-Jo, but it's more affordable and the packaging is so pretty. It also has a good price-to-performance ratio.
ConsThe scent of Donginbi seems to be a downside. It's a bit weaker compared to other products. With the growing number of cosmetic options, the time factor can be a bit...
TipDuring the discount period, I got additional benefits as a Plus member. The price at the department store was even cheaper than online - great!

After using it for about 3 days, my skin became more transparent and clearer. I definitely feel a difference^^ My skin used to feel very dry right after cleansing, but I highly recommend this product! The scent is also really nice^^
ConsSince it's a bit watery, I feel like I'm using it up quickly ㅠㅠ It would be great if they offered a large size at an affordable price
TipIf you apply this generously instead of using a toner, your skin will become smooth without needing a separate exfoliator

Looking at the ingredients, the oils only start appearing from the 7th ingredient, with the previous ones being hydrating products, so it's not burdensome. As I've been dealing with severe inner dryness and large pores due to aging, I was hesitant to use oils, but I tried the sample and was satisfied, so I purchased the full-size product. It absorbs almost instantly after application, and while I don't feel any dryness, my skin feels less dry when I apply my other skincare products compared to when I don't use this. The lightweight feel is just wonderful. Most importantly, I trust the ingredients, and I haven't experienced any breakouts. Upon research, I found that rosewood oil has anti-inflammatory effects, and drumstick seed oil helps with exfoliation and absorption of cosmetics, so I plan to continue using this. The red ginseng oil, of course, has antioxidant properties. The oily ingredients can be avoided in the summer, and those with dry skin can use this year-round. If you're looking for a truly lightweight oil, I definitely recommend giving this a try.
ConsOther than the price, there's nothing disappointing.
TipApply it right after cleansing.

It absorbs completely when applied and doesn't leave any greasy residue. You wouldn't even know it's an oil-based product.
ConsIt has a slight ginseng scent, though it's not too strong. It may be a love-it-or-hate-it kind of thing for some people.

The rose wood scent is one I enjoy, so I liked it. After using it for two weeks, my skin seems brighter, and I find myself looking in the mirror more often.
ConsIf you are sensitive to aromatic scents, you should definitely test it out before purchasing.
TipIt's best to use this as the first step after cleansing, when there is still a light layer of moisture on the skin. Applying it to the face and gently massaging it in works well. You can also skip the toner and go straight to the essence after using this product.
