dr****Dry SkinAtopic SkinRednessRecommendedMar 17, 2022I've been using this since it was released. I've finished the full-size product and now I'm using the sample that came with it, so I only have a photo of the sample, unfortunately. I'll add a photo of the full-size product later if I remember when I open a new one. I really dislike sticky products, but this has a watery consistency that absorbs quickly and feels amazing to use. I don't like applying many products, so I use this as a toner replacement. It's not one of those products that feels like it does nothing - I have dry skin, so I apply it twice, and it leaves my skin feeling hydrated. The ginseng scent is subtle and doesn't bother me. I didn't realize it before, but I actually like the ginseng smell! A friend I gifted it to also loved it. The price is a bit high. Considering the ginseng ingredient, it's not unreasonably expensive, but as someone who used to use mostly drugstore products, it feels pricey to me. Because of its watery consistency, it disappears quickly when you shake the bottle, which makes it seem even more expensive. The official retailers often have discounts on the full-size product and offer sample trials for just the cost of shipping, so if you're curious, try the sample before committing to the full-size product! - ey*****Oily SkinAcne SkinSebum/BlackheadsRecommendedFeb 22, 2022
I tried a large sample from the department store. It's an incredibly lightweight water essence, but I was surprised by how moisturizing, firming, and nourishing it is despite its thin consistency. Don't be fooled by its texture! First off, the red ginseng scent is overpowering. It's definitely a love-it-or-hate-it situation, and I'm in the 'hate it' camp. Even though it's a sample, it's quite large, and I'm concerned about the wide opening that dispenses too much product. For my oily skin, it feels heavy despite the thin consistency. It also leaves a rich feeling on the skin. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinRecommendedFeb 6, 2022
It absorbs well. I'm using this in multiple layers for a great layering effect! The texture isn't as rich as I expected, it feels more like a light exfoliating toner. For the price, it doesn't seem to provide strong hydration. 
df******Combination SkinSensitive SkinAcne SkinAtopic SkinFeb 6, 2022Hmm... Not really impressed. To be honest, I'm not sure. It's so light I can't even tell if it's really an essence. I get that it contains ginseng, but for a product called 'Single Essence', there's surprisingly little information about the ingredients. How was it extracted and what exactly is in it? I've tried many essences in this price range, but I can't find any standout features here. There are plenty of options at this price point that offer both daily use and targeted benefits. If I had to name a positive, I guess it has a runny texture and absorbs quickly? While I can't say for certain if this caused my blemishes, it definitely didn't help calm existing ones. There's no noticeable brightening effect either. With my combination dehydrated skin, I need to layer it at least twice to feel like I've actually applied something... At this price point, I wouldn't recommend it. I'm already halfway through the bottle, but once it's finished, I plan to switch back to my previous product. - jh*******Dry SkinRecommendedJan 23, 2022
It makes my skin so smooth! It's not sticky and absorbs quickly! Even when my skin is super sensitive and everything else stings, this doesn't cause any irritation! As expected, it's the price... haha. I'm using a test product, but when I checked the price for a full-size bottle... oh my! - Hwahae UserCombination SkinSensitive SkinDec 30, 2021
The watery toner-like texture means a little goes a long way with excellent absorption. It's non-sticky and absorbs incredibly well, making it perfect for oily skin types. The gentle feel and quick absorption seem to be this product's main strengths. I'm not really sure what effects it's supposed to have. It's not even that hydrating... And considering that, the price point seems quite high. - Hwahae UserDry SkinRecommendedOct 27, 2021
The subtle fragrance is lovely, and it absorbs quickly into the skin. I love how it leaves my skin feeling hydrated even when used on its own. I haven't found any drawbacks yet! As a first essence, it's completely satisfying. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinSensitive SkinOct 27, 2021
I liked how it felt moisturizing when applied. If you have sensitive skin, I strongly recommend doing a patch test first. In my case, the more I applied it, the more my skin developed small bumps. - tj*********Normal SkinSensitive SkinAtopic SkinOct 23, 2021
I love how simple the ingredients are. It absorbs quickly while leaving my skin feeling moisturized. Given it's made with ginseng extract, the scent might be hit or miss for some people. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinSensitive SkinRecommendedSep 15, 2021
It makes my skin feel plump and elastic. My skin texture becomes smoother, and my complexion looks brighter. It's quite expensive. The fragrance is too strong. I don't understand why they add potentially irritating fragrances to skincare products that are supposed to improve your skin. If people are buying it for the scent, they might as well sell perfume instead.
