Pros
This is the most moisturizing and long-lasting product I've tried.
Cons
The price is a bit too burdensome... There's also a slight pilling issue, so it's a bit of a letdown.
Tip
Try to pat it in thoroughly to ensure full absorption.

Pros
I don't remember exactly, but it was a product I used around 7 years ago. If the price was affordable, I think I would have stocked up and used it. It's recommended for oily skin. But you need to exfoliate well when using it. It can cause makeup to cake. I remember it made my skin feel smooth and soft.
Cons
Using it excessively can cause cakiness. The price is too expensive...

Pros
I had received it as a gift and used it, but the capacity felt larger than expected. After applying it, there was less of a sticky feeling, and the application felt smooth.
Cons
When I would apply it and do my makeup, there was a lot of caking and the area around my nose would feel irritated and burn at times. It didn't seem to fully hydrate my skin.

Pros
My skin is combination and slightly dry. It varies from time to time. When using it in the summer, it feels nicely moisturized. On dry days, I apply it multiple times or mix in a drop of oil before applying. Fortunately, it doesn't cause any breakouts. I live abroad, and here it costs around 20,000 won at the current exchange rate. It's worth the price and I just keep using it.
Cons
During dry seasons, this alone may not be enough. Even with multiple applications, it can still feel lacking. I apply a generous amount before going to bed.

Pros
It has good spreadability, is moisturizing, and doesn't feel dry after application.
Cons
It slides off even when I apply it before makeup in the morning and wait a sufficient amount of time. My skin is dry, but it still slides off.
Tip
I recommend using it only in the evenings.

Pros
The product applies very smoothly and feels refreshing. When applied generously and absorbed well, it leaves a smooth, fresh feeling, and the moisturizing effect is noticeable. There is hardly any oiliness.
Cons
When applied generously, the absorption takes a little time. When applied generously, the next step of the routine may be delayed. For dry skin types, the moisturizing effect may be (naturally) insufficient. The ingredient composition may not be ideal.

Pros
I thought this was a good change, as my skin became more moisturized and felt less irritated, with a smooth application and good layering during the day.
Cons
However, I use the entire Mary Kay line, and since I have thin skin, I didn't realize it and also did deep exfoliation, which led to irritant dermatitis where my skin was peeling off and it was very difficult. I took medication and it improved, but I'm still using Mary Kay and feel uneasy about the ingredients. Even without using the exfoliating product, my skin sometimes feels a bit like it's shedding, and I'm not sure if that's due to the Mary Kay products.
Tip
Still, after using the full Mary Kay line for over a year, my skin has had both improvements and worsening, so I'm unsure whether to recommend it or not... But if you have thin skin, definitely don't do any kind of deep exfoliation. Other than that, it seems okay. As for me, I'm currently exploring other skincare options through the Hwahae Trial Reviewer app, and I'm considering switching to Innisfree.

Pros
It's just average. Although it's sensitive, I don't get any breakouts.
Cons
It's a gel type, so I mainly use it at night because it can cause pilling when used before makeup. Also, it doesn't feel like it's absorbed into the skin, but rather sits on top of it.

Pros
The combination skin~ I like the moisturized and non-sticky finish feel.
Cons
After applying the gel, there is a slight sense of the makeup sliding off. It is on the expensive side.

Pros
It absorbs well and is moisturizing. That's pretty much it. Decent value for the price.
Cons
It gets cakey if you apply too much. I was shocked when I looked at the ingredients. I won't be repurchasing this.
Tip
I'll have to use it liberally, like a face mask, when I sleep.
