As soon as you apply it, your skin texture becomes slightly matte. It's almost like you've applied a BHA product or a primer. And this matte effect lasts quite a while. Without this, my makeup would start to get oily in the T-zone around 1-2 PM after applying it before work. But since using this, it's not until late afternoon that oil slowly starts to appear. Even then, the oiliness comes through very mildly. There's a slight burning sensation immediately upon application (this might be because I have super sensitive skin). However, it feels different from the irritation caused by allergy-inducing ingredients - it's more like there's a mint-like component in it. The product seems to work hard at controlling oil throughout the day, which is great for combination dehydrated skin types. It appears to effectively even out the skin tone and provide a long-lasting matte finish without causing excessive dryness. For those with sensitive skin, it's worth noting the initial tingling sensation, though it doesn't seem to cause prolonged irritation. - hs******Normal SkinRecommendedMay 3, 2025
It applies smoothly and, unlike other products that claim to balance oil and moisture but often leave my skin feeling excessively dry and tight, this one actually maintains hydration. It leaves my skin feeling soft and comfortably matte. There's nothing bad to mention, really! If I had to nitpick, I'd say I wish it came in a larger size - I'd definitely buy it again if it did. - ch****************Normal SkinRecommendedMar 5, 2025
It applies lightly without feeling sticky, and I noticed my skin gradually improving! I definitely plan to repurchase. There's nothing to dislike! The only thing worth mentioning is that the scent is quite natural... But you know what? I've found that when products smell too good, they often cause blemishes. So this is actually perfect! - al*******Combination SkinAcne SkinRecommendedFeb 11, 2025
The redness in my skin significantly reduced, and my face felt pleasantly moisturized in the morning. I applied a small amount to my cheeks after using an ampoule and finished with an emulsion. Even with just a little, I could see great results! I think I'll definitely purchase this when I run out. To be honest, there weren't many downsides, but since I have combination and sensitive skin, using too much out of eagerness sometimes led to minor blemishes. Especially in winter, it's better to carefully control the amount and use it in combination with other products for the best results. - k9******Dehydrated SkinSensitive SkinAcne SkinSebum/BlackheadsEnlarged PoresRednessRecommendedFeb 2, 2025
It's incredibly gentle. I have super sensitive skin that reacts easily, but this product was fine for me. However, it feels a bit too basic? It's like applying thick water to your skin. That's why I'm not sticking with it and moving on. - at**********Oily SkinAcne SkinRecommendedJan 9, 2025
I really loved how the texture was just right - not too heavy, but perfectly light. I didn't have any particular complaints, but I wish it came in a larger size. - mu******Combination SkinSensitive SkinRecommendedDec 30, 2024
The sample size is perfect for travel! I was curious about its pore and sebum care claims, so I gave it a try. The texture feels refreshing, and the scent is natural and pleasant. It has a retinol-like color with medium consistency, gliding on smoothly. After application, you can feel the hydration deep within your skin. It strikes a great balance between oil and moisture, making it a gentle serum that's perfect for light makeup. It works hard without being overwhelming! At first, I was surprised by the serum's color - I thought 'What's this?' But knowing it's made from natural ingredients puts my mind at ease while using it. During the dry winter months, I apply this first, then layer a thicker serum on top for extra hydration. - aj********Oily SkinAcne SkinBrightening/Dark SpotsSebum/BlackheadsInner DrynessEnlarged PoresDead Skin CellsRecommendedDec 16, 2024
Why I bought it: I purchased this to focus on sebum control as I felt my excessive sebum production was causing constant blemishes. There's a subtle scent - a fresh, powdery fragrance that I quite enjoyed. It's not overpowering at all, so it didn't bother me. I'm nearly finished with the product now, and I have to say, before using this I was really stressed about my pores and excess oil. But it seems to be working wonders for sebum control - my pores appear smaller and the tiny blemishes I used to have have significantly reduced! At first, I didn't see much effect and just used it with a 'let's see what happens' attitude. But with consistent application, I started noticing results! I read reviews saying it takes about a month to see effects, and I was skeptical at first. But it's true - you need to apply it diligently for the sebum-controlling ingredients to penetrate deeply and show results. I have combination skin with some oiliness. In my evening routine, I use this after toner and before serum, but it seems to increase the oily feeling when I layer other products on top. It's a bit better if I really take the time to let it absorb well. Consistency is key! I didn't apply it in the morning due to my makeup routine, but I made sure to use it every evening without fail. Also, I used a separate sebum control product, and I feel like using both together enhanced the effects even more! It's as if the sebum control product works deep down, and this one dissolves what's left on the surface. - db******Combination SkinAcne SkinDec 4, 2024
The lightweight formula absorbs well and has a generally pleasant scent There's a slight sticky feeling after application. While I'm not sure about its effect on blackheads, it seems decent overall (though results may vary) I recommend trying the sample available on Hwahae before purchasing the full-size product - km*****Oily SkinAcne SkinSebum/BlackheadsRecommendedOct 13, 2024
I've been using this for a few years now. It absorbs well without feeling heavy and does seem to calm my skin. While I wouldn't call it amazing, it's definitely a solid middle-of-the-road product. The price is a bit steep for the amount you get, which is slightly disappointing.
