ConsIt stings! Regular users don't know how much to use, so if they apply too much and their skin condition is not good, it stings.
TipYou should use it mixed with a moisturizer.

The pores visibly shrink immediately after a single use.
ConsEven though it's only 0.2%, it still stings and itches a bit..ㅠ I think I'll have to switch to the 0.1% version.

I'm not sure if it's a coincidence, but after applying it a few times, my seborrheic keratosis disappeared!
ConsSince I have oily skin, it felt a bit itchy when I applied it at night. I should probably use it mainly in the winter.
TipUse products for oily skin in the winter rather than the summer.

I sometimes experience some itchiness, so I use a small amount at night.
ConsI'm not sure why, but my skin condition varies - sometimes it's itchy, and sometimes it's not. It doesn't seem to be an issue with the product.

ConsI feel a slight peeling sensation. But I think it will get better as I get used to it.

There's nothing else like it, really. Those who match well with it will find that there is no other cosmetic like this one.
ConsMy skin isn't that sensitive, but during the one and a half month adaptation period, I had to apply it constantly and it was itchy the whole time. ㅠㅠ Even if I only applied it twice a week, I ultimately couldn't adapt to it, so I'm dropping out. ㅠ

Haha..
ConsI bought this product because it was said to be good for pores! Since it was my first time using retinol, I applied a small amount every other night. But from the second time I used it, small bumps started popping up all over my face ㅠㅠ They were even itchy, and the bumps spread from one area to my whole face...haha. I've used all kinds of skincare products, but I've never had my skin react this badly before. I thought maybe my skin was just sensitive these days, so I stopped using the retinol for a week, and my skin went back to normal. So I thought it was just a retinol adjustment period. But 4 days after I started using it again, the bumps came back ㅎㅎㅎㅎ.. I'm not sure if it's because my skin is oily or if the retinol just doesn't agree with me... But if you have sensitive skin, even if you didn't think you did, please think carefully before buying this and try it out cautiously ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ + I was diagnosed with folliculitis by a dermatologist! It seems the oil-based formula of this product just didn't agree with me ㅠㅠ Don't use oil-based products if you have oily skin ㅠㅠㅠㅠ After using this, my skin became so sensitive that I can't use just anything. It's been really hard trying to find non-irritating products for my folliculitis. My skin has changed completely - it's relatively sensitive now, but clearer, without any other acne besides the folliculitis. I'm not sure if that's good or bad ㅎㅎ.. If you do want to try it, stop using it right away if you have any issues. This is the first time I've ever written a review like this in my life ㅜ

I'll have to use it a bit more to see the effects.
ConsI'm not sure if it's due to the retinol, but there's a slight itchiness or irritation after applying it. It's not severe, but as it's an oil product, if I lie down after applying it, it might get on other areas.
