Pros
At first, it spreads lightly like water and is quickly absorbed. The scent is also quite normal for acne treatment, so it can be used without any issues. However, the 'treatment scent'? Some people may dislike the slightly medicinal scent. I've been using it for two months now, and since I have acne-prone skin with a lot of blemishes, the blemishes have definitely become fainter and are healing well, so it's been quite helpful.
Cons
For skin that is severely dehydrated, this product is absorbed too quickly and does not maintain moisture for a long time, so it's not suitable to use as a moisturizing essence. It seems best suited just for treating acne blemishes.

Pros
I tried the product that Gyeongseon recommended, and it seems to be effective in reducing the appearance of blemishes! There were quite a few blemish marks around my chin area, but after using almost the entire bottle, they seem to have faded significantly. Of course, they haven't disappeared completely; I plan to repurchase and continue using it consistently.
Cons
It's alright during the summer, but it lacks moisture, so I don't think this essence alone will be enough for me in the fall and winter.

Pros
Skin Type: Dry, Sensitive, Acne-prone, Hyperpigmented Reason for Use: Recently, I've been experiencing a lot of breakouts, and even after the breakouts subside, the remaining hyperpigmentation has been causing me a lot of stress. I decided to try this ampoule after seeing a YouTuber's recommendation. Fragrance ★★★★☆ The fragrance is not completely odorless, but rather has a unique scent to the ampoule. I personally don't mind it and quite like it. Texture ★★★★☆ It's not completely watery, but has a slight viscosity. When you pump it out and move it around on the back of your hand, it flows smoothly, but it's not as thin as water. When you apply it generously on your face and pat it in, it absorbs very well. Soothing ★★★★☆ It works great for soothing. When I apply it after a breakout, the redness is reduced, and the angry-looking blemishes become more calm. Hyperpigmentation ★★★★★ This has been amazing for my hyperpigmentation. After using up a full bottle, my skin looks so much clearer - the unsightly marks left behind by past breakouts have faded significantly. This has become a holy grail product for me, and I highly recommend giving it a try.
Cons
Hydration ★★☆☆☆ You shouldn't expect much hydration from this. The moisture disappears as soon as you apply it. Hydration is definitely not the strong suit of this ampoule. I personally didn't find any downsides, as the fast fading of my hyperpigmentation was the biggest benefit for me.
Tip
I don't have any special tips, but if you're disappointed by the lack of hydration, I'd suggest using this ampoule and then following up with a hydrating serum or essence. The brightening benefits for hyperpigmentation are worth it, so give this a try.

Pros
I purchased and finished one bottle, and this is my review. I have combination skin, but I really liked this product. Even though it's for troubled skin, it wasn't drying and was quite moisturizing, so it was perfect to use as a hydration step. I can't say that this product completely cleared up my troubles, but my troubles didn't get worse either, and it seemed to have a calming effect. The ingredients are good, and it's gentle on the skin, so I was satisfied. I'm considering repurchasing it.
Cons
There wasn't really anything disappointing... At the very least, my skin didn't get worse because of this product.
Tip
If you buy it during a sale, the price is more reasonable. I was able to use it during the day without any issues. Use it together with a moisturizer or oil that suits your skin type.

Pros
I originally didn't use the serum, but after my skin got turned upside down, I developed red acne scars, so I tried using it to alleviate them. I bought it after watching YouTube, and it seems to be effective! The scars are fading.
Cons
While I'm using it well now, I think I'll need to use a different moisturizing serum during the winter.
Tip
It's great to use together with the COSRX Original Pads.

Pros
At first, it seemed to have a noticeable effect. It wasn't that the acne disappeared, but when I applied a small amount to newly formed acne or irritated skin, it seemed to calm down quickly.
Cons
I usually develop a tolerance to any product I use, so after a few days, the effects don't seem to show up much anymore. It seems this product was the same way for me. 😢 I might have really sensitive skin, but it could work well for others!

Pros
My skin suddenly improved, and after using this product along with other acne-care products, my acne disappeared!!! I used it for about 3 bottles, and since I no longer had any breakouts, I've stopped using it now. It's not the most moisturizing, but it's the best at getting rid of acne.
Cons
Even after applying the product, my skin felt dry, so I had to additionally use the Isoi pink serum. It seems to be a good product for calming breakouts. I'm very satisfied with how it completely cleared my acne.
Tip
I followed a YouTuber's acne routine, and it was extremely effective. Toner + this product + Isoi pink serum + no lotion + eye cream + Dr.G Blemish Cream My skin suddenly improved, and even going to the dermatologist couldn't solve it, but all my breakouts disappeared.

Pros
I applied it for a day, and the next day, the redness and inflammation of the cystic acne had all subsided.
Cons
It seems to be effective only for cystic acne and not for scarring.
