It works fine as long as you don't apply too much. If you overdo it, you might experience some pilling.

I've been using this product for years, but sadly it's been discontinued. It was the best for calming blemishes that popped up in the summer. Just applying it would make them disappear like magic. I miss it so much!

싱글 오리진 퍼스트 트리트먼트 에센스

Unlike before, it's no longer sold on 11st Street, which really disappoints me.

I love the Scinic Single Origin Essence, but is it discontinued? It's hard to find.

When your skin needs extra hydration, soak a cotton pad with it and leave it on until dry. It has a soothing effect too.

During winter, I found it a bit lacking in richness, which was somewhat disappointing to use.

It's fragrance-free, flows like water, and feels moisturizing when applied. I personally love it!

I can't really think of any downsides. The amount is generous and I absolutely love it.

It's incredibly moisturizing and hydrating. This is a product I always repurchase.

When my face is super sensitive, I keep reapplying this at night. And make sure to pat it in with your hands, not a cotton pad!

The price point is a bit high, which is unfortunate. However, when you consider its performance, I think it offers good value for money.

I've lost count of how many bottles I've gone through... I highly recommend this for those with sensitive, dry skin. In spring and fall, it's been a huge help in managing skin issues caused by seasonal changes, fine dust, and pollen. It's great for summer too, allowing you to skip the ampoule step. In winter, it's even more perfect as the first step right after cleansing.

There wasn't anything disappointing about it. Each Scinic essence has its own unique strengths.

I think Scinic makes the best essences. This is my first time trying this one, and it seems even better for applying when my skin feels dry.

The container is a bit heavy. Other than that, I don't have any complaints!

I usually prefer creams or emulsions over essence-type products as they're easier to apply. However, this one has such great hydration that I don't even need to pat it in once or twice at night. Just smooth it on, and it absorbs quickly, leaving my skin silky smooth by morning. My skin tends to overproduce oil the next day if the oil and moisture balance isn't right, but with this product alone, without any emulsion, I wake up with perfectly balanced, dewy skin. It works hard to maintain that ideal oil and moisture balance.

It works wonders for calming the skin when it's feeling sensitive

As someone who prefers transparent products, I'm a bit disappointed with the color. However, I can overlook it since it's so soothing

As expected from a first essence, it has a hydrating water-like texture that effectively combats deep dryness

The container was a bit on the heavy side, making it slightly inconvenient to hold and use

I loved that it's made entirely from mugwort extract, which seemed to have great soothing effects and provided excellent hydration!

It's a bit tricky to control the amount. The wide opening makes it pour out too quickly...

Just the scent alone makes me feel like my skin is getting healthier! It seems great to use as an exfoliating toner.

Unfortunately, it doesn't absorb well at all. I've been using a different brand's mugwort toner as a cold mask, and that one was really nice. It absorbed well even when applied normally. I don't understand why this one takes so long to absorb. I expected it to sink in cleanly, but it feels slippery even after patting it in just once. It's such a disappointment... I had such high hopes when I purchased it.

I initially bought this product because of its good ingredients. It immediately helped reduce redness. I didn't experience any major blemishes, just a couple of small bumps here and there.

Store it in the refrigerator and apply with a cotton pad for skin soothing and cooling effects. This helps tighten pores and is great for reducing redness

1. It feels a bit too sticky, and even after patting it in, it seems to sit on top of the skin rather than absorbing fully
2. It feels a little slippery when used as a booster after toner
3. Those with oily skin might find the stickiness uncomfortable

The Hwahae Testers' winning review:
1. Gentle ingredients that don't cause irritation
2. Despite artemisia extract being the main ingredient, it has less scent compared to other brands
3. After application, you can feel it absorbs well, allowing for easy layering with emulsion creams
