It's watery, so the hydration is lacking. The mugwort ingredient didn't agree with my skin and caused blemishes. The scent is also a bit unpleasant

The plastic container is lightweight and the packaging is eco-friendly

머그워트 에센스

Rather than layering, I recommend using it as a skin pack when your skin feels irritated or inflamed.

Originally, I bought this to layer and combat deep dryness before makeup, as I dislike using heavy formulas. However, it doesn't effectively address deep dryness unless applied multiple times, which was unexpected.

Great for soothing the skin. When applied on a cotton pad as a skin pack, it slightly reduces the sensation of heat on the skin.

Just have more sales, please.
If you have frequent sales, I'll set my wallet to automatic opening, I swear.
The mugwort scent might be hit or miss for some.

~Impulse buy that turned out to be a top-notch satisfaction~
This is truly the ultimate essence for summer use.
It's not sticky, making it perfect for layering, and it's wonderfully hydrating.
Even just letting it absorb works wonders for soothing the skin.
But the real magic? Using it as a skin pack.
Soak a few cotton pads, pop them in the fridge for a bit,
and after cleansing, apply this as a skin pack. It's like turning your face into a mini-fridge!
Of course, the coolness comes from refrigeration,
but the key point is how it cools while calming any heat in the skin.
I've got one left, but come summer, I'll be stocking up again. Please don't discontinue it...

For best results, first wipe it on, then pat it in gently a second time to help it absorb. This method leaves your skin feeling even more hydrated.

The size is disappointingly small. After using larger bottles, this one feels tiny and runs out too quickly. It's a bit of a letdown.

I love it so much! It's working wonders for me. It refines my skin texture, keeps my skin hydrated, and I'm really enjoying it.

I'm still in the testing phase, but so far I'm satisfied with the results.

As someone with dry, sensitive, and acne-prone skin, I feel this product has really helped calm and nourish my complexion.

While the scent is pleasantly calming when you just smell it, why does it have a slightly off-putting smell when applied to the skin? Still, the scent dissipates over time, and the skin benefits are so good that I'll likely continue using it. I heard it used to be 100% mugwort extract - I'd like to try that version too.

✔️Effectiveness
What is this? It's really good! Why am I just discovering this now?
After applying it and sleeping, my skin becomes smooth, develops a radiant glow, and feels hydrated the next morning.

✔️Texture
Despite being called an essence, it has a light texture that could even be used as a toner. It absorbs well into the skin, leaving a refreshing feeling after application.

✔️Color and Scent
The product design and color are so green, it truly resembles mugwort water. The fragrance is subtle, making you feel calm and composed every time you apply it.

There's not really anything to complain about. It seems gentle and quite hydrating.

The best part is how it calms the skin. It's especially great when used as a toner pack!

It's a bit on the pricey side at regular price, so it's best to buy during sales for a good deal. The mugwort scent might be hit or miss for some people.

It's wonderfully moisturizing and refreshing when applied, providing great hydration. When my skin occasionally acts up or feels sensitive, using this as a skin pack helps soothe it quickly, which I really appreciate.

Since it has a water-like consistency and I use it by saturating cotton pads, I tend to go through it quickly, which can be a bit costly given its price point. Also, I couldn't really notice much hydration or other effects, so I had to use additional products to supplement my skincare routine.

The watery texture is perfect for soaking cotton pads and using as a mask. It seemed to help calm redness and soothe my skin. I found the calming effect was even better when I left it on for a few minutes, rather than just applying it with my hands. It would be great if they released this as an actual pad product!

It can feel a bit sticky at times. This might be due to applying too much. If your skin doesn't agree with mugwort, avoid using this product.

I've always been curious about this product, and it turned out better than expected. It's great as a hydrating mask and seems to have a slight calming effect. Since my skin leans towards oily, I found applying it about twice was sufficient.

If you leave the skin pack on for too long, it feels like it actually produces excess sebum.

I tried this essence again because it helped give me honey-like skin when I first used it about 5 years ago.

The product description claimed it helps reduce sebum, so I bought it thinking it would be my go-to this summer. Unfortunately, I didn't see much effect on sebum reduction, which was quite disappointing. I'm not sure if it's due to the weather, but I've actually noticed more sebum production lately, which left me puzzled. Of course, I understand that skincare products can't completely stop sebum production.

While it's hard to find any standout advantages, it's also not a product with major drawbacks. I was worried about how my skin would react to the single ingredient of mugwort extract, but it seems to have suited my skin well.
