ConsThis was the only Primera product that didn't suit me. As a combination/oily skin type, even a small amount felt rich and caused my skin's oil-moisture balance to be disrupted, leading to the formation of acne, which was very disappointing.

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!

I tried the new product and it was good.
ConsIt's a bit thick, so absorption is slow. It might feel heavy in the summer.

These days, with the heater blasting directly at me in the office during the winter, my skin has become extremely dehydrated and flushed. First, I liked the packaging itself as it showed Primera's signature clean look, and the pump dispenser allowed for easy and controlled application. The serum has a light beige, dense yet fluid texture that glides smoothly onto the skin. The scent has a subtle bean-like aroma, which was not at all unpleasant or bothersome to me, but rather felt natural. Even when my skin condition was poor, some products can feel burdensome to use, but this serum was gentle enough to provide a soothing effect. In addition to the gentleness, I was able to feel the moisturizing and nourishing benefits. Many rich products can feel like they just sit on top of the skin, but this serum, despite its nourishing properties, did not feel heavy. It absorbed well into the skin, leaving a fresh, supple finish. I felt this serum acted almost like a 'primer' for my skincare routine. It had a dense, fine-textured application that seemed to prep the skin. It appears to play an effective role as a firming serum. If you are looking for a moisturizing, anti-aging product with a clean finish, I highly recommend this serum!
ConsWhen my skin felt heated, applying this serum made my face feel almost trapped in heat. Aside from that, I thought it was generally easy to use consistently without any issues. As a dry-skinned person, the product worked well for me, but those with oily skin types or who are not dry may find it a bit rich, especially during the summer months.
TipSince the product provides good hydration, I would recommend simplifying your skincare routine if you have many steps already!

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.

The formula has a slightly bouncy, spreadable texture that applies smoothly. Since I haven't used it for a long time yet, I'm not sure about the lifting effects, but I've been diligently applying it every night! The ingredients also seem gentle, as I haven't experienced any troubles so far.
ConsFirst of all, the product contains fragrance... I feel like it could have been formulated without it. And while it's fine for me with dry skin, the serum itself has a somewhat rich feel, so oily-skinned people might feel it's too heavy and experience breakouts, especially in the summer. For combination skin types, it might work well if you only apply it to the dry areas.
TipSince the formula isn't lightweight, I find it works better when I use it at night, after toning my skin, rather than in the morning before makeup. I have dry skin, but since it's summer, I'm only using the toner and serum without a cream.

Cons★Those with oily skin should either avoid using this or stick to a simple skincare routine to use it effectively. It feels more like applying a concentrated cream than a serum (is this really a serum??) it's so rich. ★Layering a lot of other skincare products can also cause breakouts for those with dry skin.
TipThis serum is quite rich, so minimizing your skincare routine is best to avoid breakouts and keep your skin healthy. 1. Hydrating toner -> Wild Firming Serum (that's it!) 2. Double cleanse -> Wild Firming Serum (apply thinly) -> Gel moisturizer 3. (★x2) Hydrating toner (after cleansing) -> Light hydrating face mask (mix green tea powder with water to make a thick paste, apply without direct contact to skin) -> Rinse gently with water -> Apply the Wild Firming Serum by lightly massaging two half-pumps onto expression lines. The 1st or 2nd routine is fine for regular use. When you want deep hydration, try the 3rd routine for an incredibly moisturized, soothed, and bouncy complexion. (You'll be amazed after trying it) ★Remember, simplifying your skincare is key to avoiding breakouts.
