I can consistently use just the right amount for my skin without overdoing it. Absorption: It absorbs quickly with gentle patting motions. Hydration: Provides a good oil-moisture balance for oily and combination skin types. No tightness after application. Pore minimizing: As part of my night care routine, I use this Pore Minor Shot Ampoule, get a good night's sleep, and wake up to noticeably smaller pores. The smooth skin that takes makeup well is an added bonus! No blemishes: This is the first pore product I've used that doesn't cause breakouts. I'm already on my 5th purchase! Mediheal, please don't discontinue this product. I'll use it forever!
ConsThere are no downsides! As a regular user, my only wish is that it would come in a larger size!
TipThose with oily skin know that applying too much of any product can lead to sudden breakouts in the morning. I have skin that becomes sensitive when I'm tired. On days when my skin feels weak, applying this directly to bare skin can cause a slight tingling sensation (usually there's no irritation!). So, I've found a gentle way to use it on those sensitive days: 1. First, apply one layer of your most compatible hydrating ampoule and let it absorb. 2. Then, apply one layer of the Pore Minor Shot Ampoule (my dosage: 2 drops each on left and right cheeks, 1 drop each on forehead, nose, and chin). Let it absorb to finish. (3. If it feels dry, follow up with a hydrating cream or emulsion as needed.)

The purple one made my skin the smoothest and kept it hydrated for the longest time. Since I can't go to the spa these days due to COVID, I often use rubber masks at home. As an experiment, I added a few drops of the Pore Miner Shot to the mask. I'm not sure if it's just my expectations, but it seems to help... or maybe not? It's hard to tell!
ConsThe downsides are: 1. It feels like it takes forever for the first drop of the ampoule to come out. 2. You can't use every last drop (I want to shake it out, but nothing comes out...).
TipIt's great to keep one in your makeup bag and apply it whenever your skin feels dry. Not just on your face, but on your neck too!

I love how I can feel my skin becoming smooth. Recently, I had some small bumps that were calming down, leaving my skin a bit rough, but using this makes it feel smoother.
ConsI haven't seen much effect on the pores on my nose yet. I'll focus on the improvement in skin texture and buy it a few more times to continue using.
TipSome people say they layer it three times, but I find that too bothersome. Instead, I prefer to apply a generous amount and gently pat it in.

It's so noticeable! Plus, it's hydrating, leaving my skin feeling moisturized. I think it's improving my skin's elasticity too. There's a slight glow, you could say? Anyway, my skin feels incredibly smooth... I love it! Highly recommended!
ConsThere aren't any downsides. Though, is the lid supposed to be slightly loose? It seemed that way. I wouldn't call it defective since almost all the ones I've bought were like that... But hey, as long as the product works well, that's what matters!
TipI use this after using exfoliating pads. It seems to enhance the effectiveness.

The best part? My skin actually became softer and smoother. After using it, I felt like my complexion had improved. However, I must confess (and I apologize to everyone), since I already have fairly good skin, the effects weren't dramatically noticeable for me personally. To sum it up: if you're someone who occasionally gets compliments on your skin, you might not see a drastic change. But if you feel your skin is a bit dull and you want it to look brighter and more radiant, this could really help. Plus, the ingredients are great, so if you're considering buying it, I'd say give it a try. The fact that it makes you feel like your skin is improving is definitely a positive point!
ConsUgh, you'll notice when you use it that it comes out of a syringe-like container. At first, the product wouldn't come out, so I had to shake it and reinsert it. After doing that a few times, it started flowing better. That was a bit of an inconvenience. Also, towards the end, it stopped coming out again. Turns out it was empty, but you know how it is with those pointed containers? Like with those Apollo snacks, the stuff left in the pointed part doesn't come out through the nozzle. So, honestly, I'm not sure about the value for money. I thought I probably wouldn't buy it again, but it does have some effects, so I'll leave the choice up to you. But the fact that I haven't repurchased it in almost a year says something... Just keep in mind, it's like with body emulsions, shampoos, or other products - you often can't use every last drop and end up wasting a bit at the end.
TipWell, since you can apply it three times, it's bound to improve your skin, just like the 7-skin method! But honestly, it's amazing how it really makes you feel like your skin is getting better! If you only apply this, your skin might feel dry, so you'll want to use an emulsion. I'd recommend one that's not too oily, just with a moderate amount of moisture - that should be enough on its own. So, if your skin is dry, try applying this three times. If it's normal, try once or twice. Here's a suggested routine: 1) Right after cleansing, apply this three times. 2) Use a simple toner that's not too oily but provides some hydration. 3) After the toner, layer this product three times, then finish with a lightly moisturizing emulsion. Skip heavy nourishing creams, hydrating creams, or sleeping masks when using this product. The goal is to let the good ingredients in this product absorb fully into your skin for maximum benefit. It's like going on a skincare diet! Hope this helps you achieve that honey-like glow! (Note: I borrowed the photo as I deleted mine. Source: Naver Blog)

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsThe ingredients are better than the blue version. It's not irritating at all and doesn't feel sticky. There's definitely a pore-tightening effect, and my skin texture has become smoother. The difference between using it and not using it is subtle but noticeable. The bottle design seems to minimize air exposure, which helps prevent oxidation.
ConsThese days, there's a trend to reduce plastic use for environmental reasons. It's disappointing to see individual plastic containers used for just 4ml of product. I'd prefer if they added a small amount of phenoxyethanol to prevent oxidation and offered 10ml or 20ml in a single container. Honestly, the packaging cost seems to contribute significantly to the price of masking layering products. If they did it this way, consumers might be able to use it at a more affordable price.
TipI don't do the 3-layer masking. Instead, I apply a generous amount and then use my regular gentle moisturizer on top. I find this method much gentler and better for my skin. I hope they improve the quantity and packaging to be more environmentally friendly and consumer-friendly.

This product is a game-changer. Those pesky milia that have been tormenting me for a decade, resisting every treatment, have finally met their match! It's like a miracle in a bottle. I've tried all three colors, and while the other two weren't bad, this one seems to be my skin's soulmate! These days, I apply this at night, seal it with a moisturizer, and wake up to hydrated skin with visibly reduced milia. My complexion feels smoother than ever - I'm over the moon! I've been worried about my enlarged pores lately, but this product tightens them right up. It's also gradually and naturally diminishing my blackheads and excess sebum. As someone with super sensitive skin who usually can't handle exfoliation without my skin freaking out, this is an absolute godsend. Mediheal, you've stolen my heart!
ConsThe price and quantity are a bit of a concern... But honestly, I've never found a product this effective, so I'll definitely keep using it!
TipIt's currently on sale at LOHB's!

Many people seemed to share my thoughts on both the pros and cons! I've got one bottle left and bought a 3+1 deal at duty-free. In the beginning, I could really tell the difference between days I used it and days I didn't. There was also a noticeable difference between doing the full 3-step masking routine and when I got lazy and only applied it once before bed. When I do all 3 steps, my skin feels super soft and plump. With just one application, it feels a bit drier compared to the full routine, but it's lighter on the skin. I'm adjusting my usage based on my skin's condition each day!
ConsThe packaging is a bit disappointing, and the amount is less than I expected. While the small size is convenient for hygienic use, it seems insufficient for using 3 times a day, morning and night, with just 3 bottles. I'll need to use it more to be sure, but at first, I thought my pores looked slightly smaller. Is this as good as it gets? I'm satisfied that they're not getting any larger at least! Also, I can't use it up completely. Even when there's enough for one more masking session visibly left, it won't come out, so I end up throwing it away.
TipApplying just one drop each on both cheeks, forehead, nose, and chin for the 3-step masking routine is perfect! It's not too heavy, and it leaves the skin feeling plump with good hydration.

I was already interested in it and had been researching it before I won! They recommend using it every 3-4 days for a month, or every 2-3 days for 3 weeks followed by a 1-week break. I followed the latter routine, and during use, my skin felt moisturized and smooth. I actually had fewer blemishes and pimples, and people even commented that my skin looked better! Though it's said to have 3 uses per bottle, you can actually get more out of it. I used about 1.5 bottles in a month. I used this ampoule alone after cleansing, without any other skincare products, and it provided sufficient hydration.
ConsIt's a bit tricky to get the last drops out when you're trying to use it up completely. Also, if you don't control the amount well or apply it on damp skin, it can feel sticky!
TipI recommend layering 2-3 drops three times, and using it every 2-3 days for 3 weeks, followed by a 1-week break. After a month of use, I noticed the skin-improving effects seemed to taper off a bit.

Cons•Due to the design of the packaging, it's difficult to get the last few drops out. Such a waste of product
Tip•After extracting blackheads or popping a pimple when your pores are more visible, apply this before bed for truly impressive results
