Hmm... it seems a bit oily, so it might be moisturizing for dry skin?
ConsThe effect was completely ineffective and greasy... The product and money were a waste.

The whiteheads became inflamed, turning red... eventually developing into inflammatory acne with scarring ㅠㅠ So I started looking for ways to get rid of whiteheads and milia. Dermatologist peels didn't work... Liliad injections only helped for a month before breakouts returned... and dermatologist acne treatments just seemed to squeeze without much effect ㅠㅠ Then I remembered reading somewhere that acne-prone skin often has clogged oil passages, leading to oil buildup and inflammation! So I bought this product because it claims to open up pores (it even has AHA and BHA!). Since applying too much can cause facial burns, I only used a pinky nail-sized amount morning and night! When oil appeared, I blotted with oil blotting paper and reapplied a slightly moisturizing sunstick every 3-4 hours! When applied before bed, by morning the white sebum trapped in the skin texture would surface, so I gently removed it with cleansing milk. Although I still have some textured skin ㅠ I'm happy that many of the milia and whiteheads have disappeared ㅠㅠㅠ
ConsIt's a bit oily ㅠ So in the morning, there's some oil on my chin, nasolabial folds, and T-zone... But it also feels dry at the same time. Also, since Houttuynia cordata extract doesn't agree with me well, I'm worried about side effects and only applying a little bit at a time... I wish they would remove the Houttuynia cordata ingredient
TipI'm currently using: Witch Factory Cleansing Milk Sidmool Dr. Troub Cleansing Foam Round Lab Dokdo Toner Sidmool Centella Skin Essence Zeroid Soothing Cream After absorbing all of these! I apply just a pinky nail-sized amount of Sidmool Dr. Troub Pore Opener Cream

Great for testing skin tolerance before introducing AHA or BHA products.
ConsAs I have oily skin, it can feel a bit greasy... However, it works well when applied before bed.
TipTry mixing it with Sidmool Gospot Cream for best results!

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.

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.

It's effective for pores and whiteheads too!
ConsIt feels a bit rich, so those with oily skin might find it a bit heavy
TipApplying it just two or three nights a week before bed leaves my skin smooth

When I apply it before bed, my skin feels oily in the morning. I'm not sure if it's because it dissolves sebum or if it's the product's oils mixing with my skin. Because of this, it doesn't seem suitable to use before applying makeup. However, when I wake up after using it overnight, those pesky blemishes are gone! While it might not remove deep-seated sebum, it definitely smooths out the skin's texture when I put on makeup. It's amazing!
ConsThe only slight downside might be that it's a bit rich? But honestly, I can't think of anything I'm really disappointed about!

That's why I bought this product. Although I've only been using it for a week, it seems to have reduced the clogged pores somewhat.
ConsToo much oil While the small bumps seem to have decreased, the cream itself is too oily. Combined with my skin's natural oil production, it's causing a lot of blackheads in my T-zone. It's disappointing to see oil refilling the pores I've just cleared with pore strips. Rough skin texture My skin has become noticeably rougher day by day. Even though I haven't been using it for long, dead skin cells are building up rapidly since I started using this product. When I apply my daytime skincare routine with a different cream and brightening moisturizer, the dead skin cells cling to my pores, making my skin look unclean. I guess it was too strong for my skin...
TipThe scent isn't particularly fragrant since it doesn't contain added perfumes, but that actually makes me feel more reassured and I like it! Apart from preventing clogged pores, it seems this product doesn't suit me well as it causes too much dead skin cell buildup.

While my skin feels a bit rich the next day, it definitely gives a sense of evening out my complexion.
ConsIt's a bit on the oily side~ And the scent isn't great, which makes me a little uncomfortable.

I've never seen noticeable effects from skincare products before, but with this one, there's a clear difference between days I use it and days I don't. When I apply it before bed, I wake up feeling like my dead skin cells and pores have been refined, and my skin feels incredibly soft. I'm currently on my third bottle and plan to keep using it consistently!
ConsThe scent is a bit odd. But I don't really care about fragrance, so it doesn't bother me. It does feel quite rich when applied, so I tend to use a lighter toner underneath when I use this cream. Despite its richness, I've never experienced any blemishes from it!
