ConsThere wasn't anything particularly bad about it. The price is excellent, and the lack of fragrance is actually a plus!

ConsThe only downside is the scent... it has a bit of a medicinal or herbal fragrance. Everything else is great though.

The texture is more watery compared to other Galactomyces essences. Those with oily skin might find it lighter and more refreshing to use. For dry skin types like mine, I'd recommend layering it twice or applying it like a mask by soaking a cotton pad and leaving it on your skin.
ConsThe scent... oh, the scent! While Galactomyces essences generally don't have the best smell, this one is particularly... not great.
TipFor those with dry skin, try soaking a cotton pad with this essence and leaving it on your face for a bit before applying makeup.

First, I have combination skin with an oily T-zone. I'm prone to whiteheads and blackheads. Now, let me share the positive aspects. 1. Improved skin texture: When applying it to my skin, I could feel the texture improving. Being more liquid than thick, it seemed to absorb better. The texture improvement is probably its best feature. 2. Hydration: It's essentially hydration in a bottle. I deducted one star due to a slightly bitter scent, which might be due to its high moisture content. 3. Skin soothing: The day after using this, my skin feels noticeably calmer and softer.
Cons1. Scent: The fragrance is really not great. There's a strong bitter smell, which is probably its biggest drawback. Other than that, I don't have many complaints.
TipOverall, it's a clean product, so if you don't mind the smell, I'd recommend it!

If Galactomyces typically works well for you, this could be an excellent choice. While the volume is small, I personally prefer using up liquid products quickly and opening new ones, rather than keeping them open for too long. Although it's called an ampoule, I used it like a toner. I applied it with a cotton pad, and it felt somewhat slippery. I didn't notice anything particularly good or bad about it. I used it for about a week, which might be too short to form a definitive opinion.
ConsThe scent wasn't to my liking. Also, there was an inexplicable slipperiness after application that made me hesitant to use it. I dislike both stickiness and slipperiness on my face. If Galactomyces had been a good fit for my skin type, I might have continued using it despite the scent and texture, but I didn't feel compelled to reach for it.

Cons‼️Milia‼️ Not only did it not help with milia, but it actually made them worse 1/5 ‼️Acne‼️ As I mentioned earlier, my acne that had improved due to medication actually got worse. I'm not sure if it's because the medication's effects wore off 1/5 ‼️Scent‼️ The smell is like... wet wipes? Not the fragrant kind, but more like it's trying to be unscented 2.5/5
TipThis product is recommended for oily skin rather than dry skin

Skincare products with fermented ingredients generally work well for me. Texture: It has a water-like consistency, which seems great for smoothing out skin texture. Although it's an ampoule, it has a toner-like texture that's not sticky at all! Application: It's more hydrating than I expected. Despite its water-like texture, it provides both hydration and a rich feel. It might be better suited for transitional seasons rather than mid-summer. As I have dry skin, I found it slightly insufficient on its own, so I layered a cream on top! Ingredients: The ingredients are gentle and non-irritating. While it may not suit those who don't respond well to fermented ingredients, it's a great product if ferments work for you.
ConsTexture: Personally, I prefer essences and ampoules with a thicker consistency rather than watery formulas, so this was a bit disappointing for me. However, those who enjoy toner-like textures might appreciate it. Scent: As I have sensitive skin, I prefer fragrance-free products, but this one does have a scent. That was a bit disappointing! Quantity: When I first tried it, I felt the amount was a bit small. Although it's an ampoule, its watery texture means it might run out quickly. I think more people will use it as an exfoliating toner, but the quantity is a bit lacking for that purpose!
TipIt's great for smoothing skin texture! I think it would work well when used as a first essence.

With only two ingredients listed, I thought they must have included only the essentials. I'm not well-versed in cosmetic ingredients, so I can't speak to the details. The price is very reasonable. I looked into it because I was interested in purchasing. Usually, I buy based on brand recognition, but ISOI was new to me. I'm glad I've discovered a good brand this time. If they start selling it at Olive Young, I'll go buy it as soon as I finish this one! The formula is watery and runs easily. I applied it by patting it onto my face with my palms. It absorbs quickly, so I followed up with an emulsion right after. I wasn't sure what to expect in terms of skin texture improvement, but after using it for a few days, I can definitely see a difference... I think it suits me well! My face feels soft and looks clearer, so I keep checking it out. I'll keep using this consistently.
ConsMaybe because they didn't add any fragrance, the scent is a bit... well... It's like, 'Huh? What's that smell?' I wonder if it's the fermentation scent. But after a little while, you don't really notice it, so it's fine. I'm curious about this - can I use it every time I wash my face? The instructions say to use it after cleansing, either right after or following toner. I've been using it once a day before bed after washing my face, but I'm new to using ampoules. If anyone knows, please let me know...
TipEvery evening after cleansing, I used a mist like a toner, patting it in to absorb, and then applied this product. For me, this alone wasn't enough hydration, so I followed up with Illiyoon Ato Emulsion. (I have dry skin, so I always pay attention to oil and moisture balance.)

This means it doesn't run excessively when applied and feels like it's settling nicely on the skin. Absorption The absorption is really excellent. You can think of it as similar to a toner or skin. It seemed to be fully absorbed in less than 30 seconds after application. Price The price seems very reasonable. ISOI products are known for their good performance relative to price, so there doesn't seem to be any issue with the cost.
ConsBlemishes I used it for about a week, but it didn't seem to have any particular effect on blemishes. I have both closed comedones and pustular acne, but I didn't see any improvement. Scent It seems to be unscented, but you can detect a fragrance as you use it. It's not a scent I particularly like. However, it wasn't a major problem during use.
TipAs the product has a slightly sticky feel, those with oily skin might need to carefully control the amount used.
