A gentle product that doesn't sting even when applied to irritated skin It's not a lightweight product, so it can feel a bit heavy on the skin - Hwahae UserCombination SkinSensitive SkinMar 20, 2022
The ingredients feel high-quality. It applies smoothly. This product seems to have good hydrating properties. It might be well-suited for dry skin types. When applying a generous amount, it doesn't absorb immediately and has an unusual application feel, similar to a mineral sunscreen. This made the user experience less than ideal. As someone with combination dehydrated skin, it felt stuffy around the philtrum area and gave a sweaty sensation after application. The cheek area felt heated. Over time, oil built up, making it a product I didn't reach for often. - Hwahae UserDry SkinSensitive SkinJan 20, 2022
This was my go-to product when my skin suddenly flared up or had an allergic reaction. After applying it consistently for about 3 days, I could quickly see a calming effect. I used it as the final step in my skincare routine, right after my cream! Since it's an essence cream, there's a slight feeling of heaviness on the skin that can't be ignored. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinAcne SkinSensitive SkinJan 18, 2022
I bought this in summer but didn't reach for it much as it felt heavy on my skin. However, when winter came and my skin got dry, I gave it another try and it worked well. Using a routine of toner - Aesica cream essence - Astra 365 emulsion - cream made my skin feel stronger. The oil and moisture balance is just right, and it provides great hydration. It doesn't calm the skin immediately, but after using it consistently for a month, you can see the soothing effects. When I first bought and used this in summer, it felt heavy and suffocating on my skin. It seems more suitable for winter use. When you rub it in, it leaves a white cast which is inconvenient. Due to the white cast, you should pat it into your skin. Don't rub it in, just gently pat it onto your face. - Hwahae UserDry SkinAcne SkinJan 1, 2022
This product alone keeps my skin hydrated - no need for anything else! I bought it on recommendation from Olive Young, and it's great for soothing my skin. If you apply too much, your skin might feel a bit suffocated. It seems to absorb properly only when you pat it in thoroughly after application. After cleansing, I apply toner, then this product, followed by a modeling mask. It's more effective than just using the modeling mask alone, so I've made it part of my daily routine. - Hwahae UserDry SkinSensitive SkinNov 3, 2021
First off, I love that the ingredients are reassuring! To put it simply, it's an essence with a texture like white milk cream diluted with water. Although it's an essence, true to being a cream-essence, its hydration is really excellent! Honestly, after applying this (in summer), you might not even need to use a cream. That's why it feels a bit heavy for morning use, so I end up applying it only before bed. This essence really shines in drier seasons like we're having now. It absorbs well, and even though my skin is quite sensitive, I didn't experience any irritation, which was great. Personally, I think this essence functions more as a deeply hydrating essence rather than a soothing one. Perhaps due to the oil content, there's a slightly stuffy feeling on the skin. Also, when applying, there's a kind of white cast? So you need to spread it well, which can be a bit bothersome. After using this, I feel like I need to follow up with a lighter cream. It gives an all-in-one cream+essence feeling, which makes it seem a bit far from an essence's original booster function. Because of this, I'll have to think carefully about repurchasing. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinAcne SkinSensitive SkinOct 30, 2021
After applying, a film forms in a few minutes, leaving your skin feeling soft and refined. Even though my skin is super sensitive, it seems to be fine without any particular issues. Plus, the packaging is irresistibly cute, which makes me want to reach for it! Right after application, there's a slightly suffocating feeling on the skin. You need to be careful with the amount you use. I tend to apply everything generously, so when I did that once, it felt too heavy. Now I'm more careful with the amount and store it in the refrigerator to use it cold. Storing it in the fridge and using it cold makes it feel less heavy on the skin. - Hwahae UserDry SkinAcne SkinSep 9, 2021
The hydration is fantastic! I was actually planning to buy the Illiyoon essence, which I've used before, but it was out of stock. So I went ahead and purchased this product that was sitting in my cart. Honestly, I prefer the feel of Illiyoon... However, this one is great for soothing the skin! I didn't experience any blemishes, and it seems to suit my skin well. I also love that it's not sticky at all~~ While I probably won't repurchase, I'm satisfied with it! I tend to dislike finishes that feel like they're forming a film on my skin, so it's a bit bothersome when applying. But I guess that's unavoidable given the formula... Also, it seems a bit on the pricey side. Applying this before a modeling mask gives you a feeling of extra nourishment! - Hwahae UserCombination SkinAug 6, 2021
It feels more hydrating since it's a cream essence. I love that it comes in a larger size. It absorbs extremely slowly, which makes my skin feel congested. Not suitable for summer use. - Hwahae UserDry SkinSensitive SkinJul 21, 2021
As someone with sensitive combination skin prone to blemishes from lack of sleep or during my period, my skin is quite delicate and reactive to environmental factors. However, I found that the gentle ingredients in this product seemed to soothe my angry blemishes, and I could feel them gradually calming down after application. Despite being an essence, it lives up to its 'cream' name by not leaving my skin feeling dry at all! During humid summers, I even skipped my regular moisturizer and just used this alone. The texture can leave a slight white cast, similar to sunscreen, so if you're applying it before going out, make sure to thoroughly massage it in for complete absorption. On days when you're running late or in a hurry, this extra step might feel a bit bothersome.
