It also contains adenosine, which should help with wrinkle improvement.
ConsWhile the product itself is quite good, it couldn't penetrate my ultra-oily skin (I'd still recommend it for normal skin types). I didn't see any results, so it didn't feel like I was using retinol. Currently, I've stopped using it.

Initially, I was surprised to see some dead skin cells when applying it consecutively, but my skin became smoother. No particular irritation or blemishes. Slight improvement in wrinkles and pores, though not dramatically. I'm on my second bottle.
ConsSkin only glows while it's on, but reverts back or worsens when not using it. No improvement in scars. After using two bottles, I feel like I've developed a tolerance and it's not as effective...? Unlike other retinol products that warn against use around eyes and neck, this one says it's okay. I'm unsure if it's truly safe, as it seems to make things worse somehow.
TipIf you don't properly hydrate, wrinkles can worsen. Similarly, if you don't apply sunscreen correctly, your complexion can deteriorate.

As someone with combination skin, I'm pleased that it's reduced sebum production around my nose area.
ConsIf used too frequently, it can leave your skin feeling dry, so you might need to consider adjusting the amount and frequency of use based on your skin type.

Previously, high-concentration products I used would cause serious skin issues if I applied even slightly more, so I always had to be cautious. But with this one, I can use it without worry. The effects are so noticeable that I can visibly see fine lines increasing rapidly when I stop using it, and then decreasing again when I resume use.
ConsCompared to retinol products I've used before, this one definitely causes less skin irritation and tingling, so I don't have many complaints. However, given how gentle it feels, I think it would be nice if they also offered a version with an even higher concentration of retinol.

It also fades blemish marks and sometimes prevents new blemishes from forming. There's a noticeable difference between days I use it and days I don't. This product is my friend that's given me that coveted porcelain skin complexion.
ConsEver since my skin suddenly took a turn for the worse, I've been unsure if this product is right for me anymore. It used to be my perfect match, a dream team I wanted to stick with forever. Now I'm afraid to apply it - it feels like playing Russian roulette with my skin.
TipFor those with super sensitive skin, try applying this lightly over your moisturizer. It may reduce irritation, though the effects might be less potent. Still, it's better than not using it at all. When my skin was in good condition, I used to apply it before moisturizer.

I've been applying it only in the evenings for 4 consecutive days. I was a bit worried about side effects and heard that you shouldn't apply too much from the start, so on the first day I used just half a pump, and from the second day onwards, I used one full pump for my entire face. 1. It gives a radiant glow: My skin has a beautiful luminosity, like a polished egg shell! 2. Improves fine lines and elasticity: As I turned 30, I started to worry about fine lines and skin firmness, which is why I bought this. I'm amazed at how effectively it works! The areas I was concerned about have visibly improved. My skin must respond well to retinol... 3. It's not irritating: There's no fragrance, it's not sticky, and feels lightweight on the skin!
ConsThe recommended freezer storage is a bit of a hassle... Going back and forth to the fridge every evening!
TipI used to apply my skincare in this order: serum 1 - serum 2 - serum 3 - emulsion - eye cream. I found that applying the retinol between serum 3 and the emulsion works perfectly for me!

While it may not have a significant effect on pores, I felt it had a subtle impact on wrinkles. The formula absorbs well, as it has a runny consistency.
ConsAlthough it's not an expensive product, I didn't notice any remarkable results for its price. It seemed to help a bit with hydration, but that's about it. As I mentioned, the formula is runny, so you need to be careful when applying it to your face. The pump dispenser can be tricky - if you're not careful, it might squirt out or drip down your face.
TipFor pore-minimizing products, I found the Niatten Serum from Sidmool to be the most effective. If pores are your main concern, you might want to try that one instead of this.

While it's not a miracle worker, I'm satisfied as my skin appears to have improved compared to before.
ConsDue to the nature of retinol, you should use this product in the evening. Although the instructions say you can use it during the day with sunscreen, it's safer to use it at night. Be careful not to combine it with acidic products, exfoliants, or vitamin C, as this can irritate your skin. I noticed some dead skin cells flaking when I applied too much.
TipApply an appropriate amount in the evening.

The morning after applying it, I could visibly see that the wrinkles had become less noticeable. The product's texture is similar to a hydrating serum. It's fluid enough to drip when squeezed onto the back of your hand and tilted. When used alone, it absorbs well and has a great texture, feeling like it really adheres to the skin. I use it 2-3 times a week in the evening, mixed with a moisturizer. I didn't experience any issues with dead skin cells, which is often cited as a drawback of retinol products. I did occasionally feel a bit of dryness, but that was resolved by slightly increasing the amount of moisturizer I used. After about a month of use, I didn't develop any small blemishes either. I'm very satisfied with this product. At 19,800 won, it's also quite affordable, so I plan to continue purchasing and using it regularly.
ConsI didn't find any issues with the product's performance or functionality. The only slight disappointment is that the opaque plastic case makes it difficult to see how much product is left.
TipSince retinol products are said to be sensitive to light and heat, I keep it in the refrigerator. For those worried about flaking or dryness, I'd recommend mixing it with a deeply hydrating moisturizer for best results.

With consistent use, it's effective in minimizing pores and reducing fine lines.
ConsIt can sting if you apply too much. You need to pace yourself, using it only every few days. Retinol is known for its potency, which is why it's so effective. The efficacy decreases over time, so use it quickly after opening.
TipThis product can be excellent if used correctly. Start with a small amount and gradually increase to avoid shocking your skin. Applying too much without knowing can lead to tingling and redness. Don't use it with vitamin C, and only apply it at night.
