Despite its noticeable consistency, which made me worry it might be sticky, it actually feels quite slippery when applied. It gives a nourishing and hydrating sensation with a rich feel, suggesting it would be beneficial for moisturizing the skin.
ConsThe product tends to sit on top of the skin and absorbs rather slowly. While the scent isn't overpowering, I can't quite place what it is, and I don't particularly like it.

ConsNow that my skin has become combination, I can't find a serum that fits me perfectly. I'm using one for now, but it's a bit heavy and leaves an oily feeling, plus I feel some itchiness during the absorption process.

The scent is slightly herbal.
ConsIt doesn't feel like it's completely absorbed. It feels like it's a bit on the surface, but it eventually does get absorbed.

The serum has a slightly different texture than what I had in mind - it's a creamy, dense type of serum. However, this creamy texture works wonderfully for me from the fall through the winter seasons. As soon as I apply it, my skin glows and my moisture-oil balance is restored. This product is the only one that effectively addresses the dryness caused by the heater in my home these days.
ConsSince the serum has a dense, creamy texture, there is a slight tendency for the subsequent moisturizer to sit on top of the skin. However, this is not an issue, as the serum alone provides sufficient hydration, and I can skip the moisturizer altogether.
TipFor those with oily skin, the serum may be too much, so it's not a bad idea to use the serum alone without a separate moisturizer.

Cons🛑 Texture: It's extremely sticky. It's kind of unpleasantly sticky - when you apply it to the back of your hand and tap your fingers, it stretches out like cheese, and the spreadability is not good either. It also doesn't absorb well and just sits on the surface. 🛑 Oil-Water Balance: The thick texture does provide some moisture, but the lingering oily residue and greasiness are so bothersome and uncomfortable that it overshadows any benefits... Your skin feels a bit suffocated, and there's still something sitting on the surface even the next morning... It doesn't seem to do anything definitively well! 🛑 Ingredients: I didn't feel it was overly irritating when using it, but there are four harmful ingredients. With so many harmful ingredients these days, it's a bit concerning to use. The thick, greasy texture really felt like it was clogging my pores, and sure enough, the harmful ingredients are linked to pore-clogging as well!

It has good spreadability and a bouncy, serum-like feel. Since I received it as a gift from the Hwahae Trial Reviewer, I'll skip the packaging details. The absorption is quick, and the ingredients are not the most ideal but still decent. When applied, it gives a comfortable feel on the skin, and the moisture level is good.
Cons1. The fragrance is not great, even though many people say it's fine. 2. There is an oily, slick feeling that lingers on the skin. So for my oily-combination skin, it felt a bit stuffy. It might be better suited for dry skin types rather than oily-combination. 3. The absorption is good, but it leaves a sticky, tacky sensation.

By the way, I have oily skin, so I prefer cosmetics that don't make me look shiny, especially in the summer, and I was able to use this product really well!
ConsThe downside is that in the winter, it feels a bit dry and doesn't quite fit my skin, leaving a flaky feeling. It doesn't absorb well and just sits on the surface.

First of all, the essence delivers a nourishing feel, as intended to improve elasticity. It's not a lightweight essence, but rather a rich and substantial one. In my opinion, this essence would be great for those with dry, extremely dry, or normal skin types in the upcoming fall season. The product seems gentle and provides a skin-protecting sensation. It could also make a nice gift for your mother.
ConsThe fragrance has a somewhat herbal feel, so it may be a matter of personal preference. Given its rich texture, it may not be the best choice for spring and summer. Rather than quickly absorbing, it provides a protective, highly moisturizing effect, so it seems more suitable for fall and winter. While it worked well for my extremely dry skin, it may feel heavy or fail to absorb properly for those with oily skin types. Overall, it's a thicker, lotion-like essence.
TipOn dry days when you want to nourish your skin, using this essence after a face mask would give you a honey-like, nourishing effect. For everyday use, a small amount should suffice so that it doesn't feel heavy.

Since the day I received the delivery, I've been using it morning and evening, and I want to observe it as much as possible, so I'm writing this on the last day. It's a pity that I couldn't use it for more than 2 weeks, which is the typical skin cycle. The spreadability is just okay? When I apply it, it feels like it's going to be absorbed, but it actually absorbs well. It's also good that the makeup doesn't slide or lift. It's been an extremely hot summer, but it didn't feel sticky, which is great. The hydration power is considerable due to the seed, but it doesn't feel stuffy or heavy. I've tried using skincare products that are good for the skin, but couldn't use them because the scent was unpleasant, but the Wild Seed Serum has a mild fragrance. The fragrance is not too strong, which is good. During the review process, I pumped it on the back of my hand, and even after several minutes, the formula is still there. It has slightly spread, but it's within a 4-inch radius on the back of my hand. It's not as thick as a cream, but the serum has a consistency that doesn't readily flow down. For the first few days, my skin seemed to be getting healthier, but I'm not sure about the later period. I have a moisture measurement device, and I measured my skin right after washing, right after applying, a few hours later, and a few hours after makeup application, and the results were all above the normal level, so it seems to be effectively replenishing moisture and oil. I measured too often, and the past data was erased, so I took a screenshot of the measurement right after application. 38-42 is the normal moisture level, and the lower the number, the drier the skin. The lowest measurement I got was 38% Water 3 Oil 3 (both 3 are normal) after using powder makeup for half a day. Even though my skin tends to get oily after half a day due to my oily skin type, the oil didn't seem to rise, likely because the moisture and oil were well-supplied. I took before and after photos, but the after photo came out blurry, so it doesn't have much meaning. But my complexion does seem to look more radiant.
ConsThe bottle was heavier than I expected, which surprised me. I read that it contains acne-inducing ingredients, but for the first 9 days, I didn't experience any breakouts. However, starting yesterday, something seems to be coming up on my nose, which I haven't had before. I'll have to use it for a few more weeks to determine if it's due to this serum or another cause. The feeling of it slightly spreading when applied may have been because of the oiliness. I think it might work even better for dry skin types. If it doesn't cause any troubles after a few more weeks, since oily skin types also need some oil replenishment, it might be worth trying for me as well. I'll use it for a few more weeks and leave another comment.
