It's so effective at removing sebum that you can clearly see the emptied pores. If you're wary of sebum softeners or find them cumbersome, this might be worth trying at least once.
Cons1. It's excessively rich and absorbs slowly. For an exfoliating product, it's quite oily. While it removes sebum, it simultaneously adds oil, potentially creating a vicious cycle. I wish it was less rich. 2. It doesn't tighten pores. Being a cream, I thought it might nourish and fill in pores, but it only removes dead skin cells. As a result, you need to apply a pore serum or hydrating ampoule before this cream. Despite being designed for oily skin, its richness makes me hesitant to use it regularly.
TipIf you insist on using this product, apply it right after your toner, then follow up with a hydrating pad or hyaluronic acid to finish your routine.

Less sebum buildup in pores! For those of us blessed with excess oil, managing whiteheads and blackheads is crucial. This product truly reduces sebum accumulation! No skin irritation! It doesn't cause any flare-ups! Buy one, get one free! They always have this amazing deal!
ConsThe slightly thick texture can cause pilling if used before makeup. It doesn't provide dramatic exfoliation - it's more of a daily use product!
TipI apply this cream in a thin layer and then use functional skincare products on top! It feels like it enhances absorption!

It's like magic, especially when applied to areas like the back of the feet, elbows, or knees before bed. The next morning, the dead skin cells are completely gone, leaving a radiant glow. I find it even more effective than Sidmool's AHA body emulsion, so I'm diligently using it as a body treatment.
ConsFor facial use, it has a slightly rich, oily feel that makes me hesitant to apply it to my face regularly.
TipI highly recommend trying it as a foot cream! I applied it to my dad's feet, and the next day he was amazed at how baby-soft they had become.

I started using it because it's supposed to be good for pores. When you apply it, it goes on a bit white, but if you keep massaging it in, it disappears. I don't feel like my pores are dramatically shrinking or anything, but it seems to control oil production pretty well. It's not drying though - when I apply it at night, my face looks nice and glowy in the morning! I've been using it without any blemishes, but if I massage it in for too long or on days when my skin is super sensitive, it can feel a bit tingly. It hasn't caused any redness though. It doesn't pill under makeup either, so it's been working well for me overall!
ConsThe only downsides are the initial white cast and the slight tingling sensation - everything else is great!

There wasn't a dramatic effect from the start, but after applying it consistently for over a month, my milia significantly decreased. In the past, when I squeezed, many milia would release sebum particles, but nowadays there's less of that, and my skin texture has improved considerably.
ConsThere's nothing particularly bad to mention! It's always on a 1+1 offer, so the price isn't burdensome. I applied it once a day before bed, and it wasn't irritating to my skin.

I used it in summer and my face got oilier, so I avoided it. But when the seasons changed, my skin suddenly became dry. That's why I started using it again. When I apply it generously before bed, I wake up with a real glow on my face - not oily, but more like a brightened complexion. My blemishes have significantly reduced since using this!
ConsI think it's better to avoid it a bit in summer, at least for me!
TipIt's amazing if you do an oil cleanse for about a minute, then layer on toner and essence, and finish with this as your last step. You can get through winter without dry skin!

It's a great deal with the buy-one-get-one-free offer! Not sure if I'll use it all though. While I didn't see miraculous results, it definitely helped manage my sebum and slowed down the reappearance of blemishes after extraction. I'm satisfied!
ConsI'm used to pretty intense products, so this wasn't particularly irritating for me. However, it did leave my skin feeling a bit dry, which was uncomfortable. You'll probably need to use deeply hydrating products before and after this one.

You can definitely feel it working to keep excess sebum in check!
ConsThe distinctive scent of Sidmool... I just can't... absolutely cannot... get used to it... sigh.

I have skin that tends to develop whiteheads even in winter and produces a lot of sebum. Thanks to BHA, it's definitely effective for managing sebum deep within the skin and controlling whiteheads. It also helps with dead skin cells. Since it's an AHA/BHA product, it can be irritating if used daily, so I apply it two or three times a week, only at night and in small amounts. This way, it lasts quite a long time. The ingredients are good, and it's suitable even for sensitive skin, making it great for consistent use. With regular use, you can see the results. It's also good for keratosis pilaris or small bumps on arms and legs. If you're looking for quick and strong effects, those products can be harsh on the skin. This one allows you to maintain your skin barrier while managing your skin concerns.
ConsThere's nothing I find disappointing, but it didn't suit my sister. No matter how good the ingredients are, if it doesn't work for you, it becomes a bad product. You really have to try it to know. Also, there's a strange smell - maybe it's the AHA? I personally dislike added fragrances more, and I've gotten used to this scent, so it's fine for me.
TipEven though it's a gentle product, they say AHA and BHA can be irritating if used morning and night every day. It seems like using it consistently but moderately would give the best results.

The size is small at 60ml, but it's priced in the upper 10,000 won range and comes in a 1+1 deal, so you get two. Considering it's essentially 120ml, the price seems reasonable. As a pore cream, it effectively removes dead skin cells and helps minimize pores. It opens up clogged pores, eliminates sebum and dead skin cells, aids in pore and skin barrier management, and keeps the skin hydrated. I have dry skin and was worried because it contains BHA and AHA ingredients, which could potentially make my skin even drier. However, I was pleasantly surprised - it's incredibly moisturizing with high hydration power, so my concerns were unfounded. Even for dry skin in winter, it's moisturizing enough to use without issues. It seems great for dead skin cell and pore care.
ConsThere are no downsides. It has many good ingredients and no harmful ones. The price point is reasonable, and I recommend it.
TipUse it like a regular cream. Apply it all over your face as the last step in your skincare routine.
