Pros
This essence has a somewhat oily feel, but it did not cause any breakouts! The texture is similar to a cream-type toner that works well for dry skin, as it effectively addresses both inner and outer dryness. However, for those with acne-prone skin, it may cause small bumps to appear immediately after use. This product has a thicker consistency than typical cream-type toners, so it doesn't flow as easily and has a lower oil content, making it quite suitable for oily-skinned users as long as the ingredients agree with their skin. My current routine is: I use a pad-type exfoliator once a week, and on days I wear makeup, I wipe my face with an allantoin essence like a toner. Then I apply a hydrating essence, followed by another layer of the allantoin essence (the thicker, more moisturizing one). If my skin still feels a bit tacky after that, I'll apply my cream. I find this order works best to balance my skin.
Cons
The glass packaging is heavy and opaque, making it difficult to gauge how much product is left. If the packaging could be changed to a pump bottle, it would be much more convenient.
Tip
On days when my skin feels very hot and flushed, I find it helpful to soak a cotton pad in the product and briefly refrigerate it before applying it as a soothing face mask. This really helps to calm my skin down.

Pros
It's really gentle. I apply it when my face is completely dry and irritated, and it doesn't cause any irritation. It also doesn't cause any breakouts. When I apply it, the dryness goes away.
Cons
Even after absorbing it, my face still feels very oily. Since I have a combination skin type, I don't think the oil is from my own skin, but rather the product itself seems to be very rich in oils. It's about as oily as when I apply a really rich cream. If only the finish felt nice, I would've used it daily, but...

Pros
It's sensitive, but this is gentle, so I'm using it well haha There are no troubles and the price is good when it's 30% off
Cons
There isn't anything, but if I have to nitpick, the packaging? It has to be tapped a bit to come out, so it's a bit inconvenient sometimes

Pros
Skin: Combination, Acne-prone, Oily 💛Hydration: I purchased this product to only provide inner moisture, but it ended up being too moisturizing, causing excessive oil on the surface. It would likely be better suited for dry-skinned individuals. 💛Absorption: The absorption was decent, but the excessive surface oil left me feeling a bit uncomfortable. 💛Blemish Improvement: There was no noticeable improvement in blemishes, but my skin did not worsen either. However, I believe this would be an excellent product for those with dry skin.
Cons
It is too oily, so I would not recommend it for those with oily skin types.

Pros
I've been using this product consistently and it's been great - it's gentle and I haven't had any major skin issues.
Cons
There's really not much I don't like about it. It may be a tiny bit drying at times, but only very slightly.

Pros
Ingredients. Affordable price. Large volume. Not overpowering fragrance. Reliable moisturizing power, rather than dramatic effects. No troubles after use.
Cons
Shouldn't expect dramatic effects... But there's nothing.

This is the third bottle I'm using as a sensitive person. It doesn't cause any trouble, it's moisturizing, and I really like it.
Cons
There's nothing disappointing. I'm very satisfied and have been using it.

Pros
This essence is completely odorless and fragrance-free...It seems to be a product made for those sensitive to ingredients. As a dry skin type, I found this essence to be very moisturizing. It's as if it's solely focused on being an essence. I didn't feel any dryness after applying and wearing it. The contents are a slightly runny white formula. It's gentle, and I've never had any painful reactions even when I had a lot of breakouts.
Cons
There aren't really any downsides, but it just seems like a product without any distinct features. I guess its gentleness is its main feature?

Pros
There is a faint scent of madecassoside, but it can be considered fragrance-free. ➕Effects (Hydration & Soothing) The product description states that it is a 'hydrating soothing essence', but it seems more accurate to call it a 'moisturizing soothing essence'. It helps to cool down the skin's heat, but it doesn't seem to have a strong calming effect on blemishes or acne. It just prevents the skin from getting worse, which is still a relief. ➕Cost-Effectiveness Overall, considering the quality, the price is quite reasonable. As a student, I find Innisfree's road shop products more accessible compared to department store brands. Innisfree also frequently has sales, so it's best to purchase during those times. ➕Ingredients There are no problematic ingredients at all. It's completely clean and gentle. I often use products with allantoin, as it works well for me, and I sometimes use the Innisfree S/2 Personal One Cream, which also has allantoin as a key ingredient. ➕Design The design is very simple. The packaging is also minimalistic. I prefer the simple aesthetic over something more elaborate, so I would give the design full marks.
Cons
➖Effects (Anti-Aging) I recently noticed that the product is labeled as having wrinkle improvement benefits. Wrinkle improvement? Since I don't have any wrinkles, I'm not sure if the effects are negligible, but I haven't really noticed a significant difference. ➖Absorption If left alone, the product doesn't fully absorb into the skin and tends to sit on the surface. I have to gently pat it in with my fingers to help it absorb. There is a slight tackiness after application, so I wait a bit before applying the next step in my routine. When I'm in a hurry, I just lightly pat it in with my fingers to help it absorb. ➖Color This isn't exactly a downside, but the product has a milky white color. However, it doesn't leave any tint or discoloration on the skin, so it's not a major concern. But those who dislike any color in their products may want to keep this in mind.
Tip
🔆This is not a cleansing water product, it's more suitable for use as a night care product rather than a face pack. 🔆I think it's better to apply this with your hands rather than using a cotton pad. If you gently pat it in, it will absorb much better. 🔆If you want to achieve a dewy, hydrated makeup look, I'd recommend using this product before applying foundation. It helped prevent my foundation from separating or moving around. (This may vary depending on the individual).
