The combination of aloe, squalane, propanediol, trehalose, and sodium lactate is absolutely fantastic. It simultaneously provides skin soothing, oil control, deep hydration, sugar-derived ingredients, and moisture balance - all while carefully excluding harmful ingredients except for essential preservatives. Looking at Awesome's ingredient list, it genuinely feels like they made it for themselves or their family. You can clearly see how they've thoughtfully formulated this product to cater to oily skin without causing blemishes. Another great point about Awesome is their use of natural thickeners instead of carbomer in their products. While it's a safe choice, you'd be hard-pressed to find products this good when you look around. They've truly created products with ingredient combinations that won't cause issues even with long-term use. Personally, what I love most about Awesome is that even after applying toner, emulsion, and cream, my skin still feels like it can breathe. There's no sense of an artificial barrier being forced on, which I absolutely adore.
ConsIt's a bit of an insider secret, I suppose. Also, based on my experience, this product is really targeted for truly oily skin. For combination dehydrated skin, I'd recommend using a lot of Awesome's Aloe Vera toner and then applying a small amount of the Lemon Balm line for the emulsion and cream steps.
TipInsights from someone who's used various Awesome products for nearly 15 years: For oily skin prone to pustular blemishes: Omija Bubble Foam - Mix Omija line with Aloe line For oily skin: Either Asparagus Bubble Foam or Omija Bubble Foam (try both and choose what works best for you) - Aloe Vera Toner - Aloe Vera Moisturizer For combination dehydrated skin: Asparagus Bubble Foam - Aloe Vera Toner (3+ layers) - Small amount of Lemon Balm Emulsion or Lemon Balm Cream (From my experience, I felt the Lemon Balm Emulsion Cream was better for barrier protection than the Aloe moisturizer. If you have very oily combination skin, the Aloe cream might work well too) For combination or normal-to-dry skin with deep dryness (my skin type): Asparagus Bubble Foam - Aloe Vera Toner (3+ layers) - Small amount of Lemon Balm Emulsion - Generous amount of Lemon Balm Cream (I don't have much surface dryness) For normal-to-dry skin with surface dryness but no deep dryness: Asparagus Bubble Foam - Full Lemon Balm line (toner, serum, emulsion, cream) in generous amounts (I found the Lemon Balm toner to be much richer and better for surface dryness than the Aloe toner) For dry skin with severe surface dryness: Asparagus Bubble Foam - Full Lemon Balm line (toner, serum, emulsion, cream) in generous amounts, followed by mixing a few drops of Awesome Star Flower Oil into the Lemon Balm Cream and applying again

Although it claims to be ECO CERT certified, I purchased it without high expectations, but it was really, really gentle and non-irritating, which was perfect for my sensitive skin. After using this, the cosmetic poisoning has subsided and no more major breakouts have occurred, so I'm very satisfied! The moisturizing is also great! I have combination skin, oily on the outside and dry on the inside, but when I apply it, it fills the inside with moisture without any unnecessary oiliness. It's hard to describe the comfortable feeling... 100000% will repurchase!!
ConsThere's nothing bad about it... even the price is gracious. The original price is 15,000 won, but I bought it on sale for 12,000 won! The only thing I can point out is that if you apply too much, it can get cakey when applying makeup. In the morning, I use just the right amount, but at night, I apply it generously.
TipYou must, must refrigerate it! There is a significant difference in the application between leaving it at room temperature and storing it in the refrigerator. If you leave it at room temperature, the absorption is extremely slow when applying. However, if you put it in the refrigerator, the formula becomes bouncy, and the absorption becomes faster. If it feels a bit dry, mix in a drop of an ampoule or something similar!
