The pump is emphasized on the box as being eco-friendly, which gave me a slightly positive first impression.
ConsI wish it had a cooling effect, but when applied it feels slightly warm. Also, the more I use it, the more I experience deep dryness, so I've stopped using it with plans to try it again in midsummer.

It has just enough viscosity to not drip, and when applied, it doesn't evaporate but absorbs right into the skin. The hydration level is really high, and you can feel it being delivered directly to your skin.
ConsFor summer use, it would be even better if it had a bit of a cooling effect to help reduce skin heat.
TipMixing it with a bit of watery hydrating ampoule makes it even more moisturizing.

I've used it from the day I received it (May 6, 2021) until today (May 10, 2021). My review is a bit long! ✔️ Skin condition: I started using this when I had severe acne, small bumps, and blemishes around my mouth and chin area due to mask-wearing. 🧪 Absorption: It's incredibly lightweight! I can't believe how light it feels. On the first day, I applied it without any expectations and was surprised by how light it was. Yet, despite being lightweight, it's still hydrating! The finish feels fresh and clean! As someone with oily skin who dislikes heavy or sticky products, I absolutely loved this. I felt like it even helped refine my skin texture! (Although some reviews mentioned it being sticky, which worried me, I found that it wasn't sticky at all after gently patting it in a few times) 🧪 Texture: It's clear and colorless! It's similar to aloe gel but slightly more elastic. 🧪 Scent: I didn't notice much of a scent! Maybe just a very slight cooling fragrance..? 🧪 Packaging: It seems the packaging has changed from a dropper to a pump! Plus, it's eco-friendly without a metal spring, so it feels a bit heavier to press, which I actually prefer. It's great for the environment too! (I don't like when products dispense too easily and come gushing out) 🧪 Blemishes: Although the ingredient list warns it may cause blemishes for oily skin, I felt like my blemishes were actually calming down. I didn't experience any new breakouts after using it. The blemishes on my cheeks and chin have almost completely subsided, and the ones around my mouth didn't get worse.
Cons🤔 If you're looking for deep hydration both inside and out, this might feel a bit dry. Those with dry skin might need to supplement with additional moisturizing products. 🤔 Cooling effect: While the scent is slightly cool, I didn't really feel much of a cooling effect when applying. If it were truly cooling, I think you'd definitely notice the effect. 🤔 It's expensive... If I had to mention a downside, it would be the price... it's quite steep. I already use Dr.G products for my moisturizer and cleansing foam, but adding this would really empty my wallet... Even though I'd like to repurchase and keep using it, the price makes it hard to buy without hesitation. 🤔 It stings on wounds from blemishes I thought it wouldn't hurt because it's so light, but it stings on open wounds from blemishes. If you have any wounds, please avoid applying it to those areas.
TipAlthough it's not very noticeable in photos so I didn't upload any, I experienced significant soothing effects. However, it seems some reviewers actually experienced breakouts. It might be a good idea to test it on a small area first before using it all over your face.

I'm a Dr.G fan, and I think their products truly offer great ingredients for the price. ❣Reduces heat sensation - GOOD These days with heating on at home and everywhere, I'm worried about skin damage. I use many cooling products, and this gives a similar effect to a soothing gel. ❣Good for sensitive skin I used to have clear skin without acne, but due to stress and changes in diet and routine, my skin started breaking out. I've had some acne on my cheeks recently, and after using this Dr.G ampoule, it seems to calm down blemishes like whiteheads. I like it. I think my skin will improve even more after finishing the whole bottle. ❣The product is lightweight and nice The bottle is plastic, not glass, so it's lightweight and convenient.
Cons😭The essence doesn't come out easily. It's a dropper product, but I have to squeeze it 2-3 times to get the ampoule out. Although it's a clear liquid, it seems closer to a solid than a liquid. This aspect is really disappointing. 😭Cooling effect? It definitely helps reduce heat sensation, but I didn't feel a cooling sensation. However, it certainly calms the skin. 💧Absorption seems slightly lacking. It doesn't really sink in deeply? It seems to absorb too lightly. It's not like it absorbs super quickly, but it feels like it sits on the surface a bit? But it's not too bad. Honestly, there's nothing else bad about it. 90% likely to repurchase. I wish the price was a bit lower like some other ampoules. As a Dr.G fan, I definitely think their products are great. I love Dr.G❣ Please lower the price just a little bit!
TipTo help the essence absorb better into the skin, gently pat your face with clean ring fingers after applying. This will improve absorption. But be careful not to irritate your skin! 🙏Clean hands
