Pros
I've been using it for years. Whenever I feel like I'm about to have a breakout, using it makes me feel instantly soothed.
Cons
It's a bit on the oily side. Putting on blotting paper works great.
Tip
Apply the ampoule generously, let it absorb a bit, then do the oil blotting paper pack on top. This helps it absorb quickly and removes excess oil nicely.

Pros
Just apply this and sleep, and your acne will be gone the next day Redness is also alleviated It balances the oil and moisture It feels incredibly light and refreshing to use
Cons
One bottle lasts about a month The volume seems a bit small When I apply it in the morning and do my makeup, there's a slightly oily feeling So I mainly use it in the evenings
Tip
When I apply this in the evening and then use the Aestura Firming Cream or Never Drying Line Essence, my skin is nourished and plump the next day

Pros
The dry-skinned folks are going wild with excitement over this ampoule! Haha Oil, moisture, and more moisture~ It's similar to the Isoi Moisture Doctor Cream in how moisturizing it is. However, while the application is smooth, the absorption is a bit... If you try to use it in the busy mornings, it takes some time to sink in, so it can be a hassle. Haha It's also great to use in the winter. No trouble at all! But for some reason, I seem to prefer an even richer, more nourishing ampoule, so I might not repurchase this one too often. Hehe
Cons
Those who feel that the oil content reduces the longevity of their makeup may also have this concern.

Pros
My skin was very sensitive and prone to breakouts during the move-in period, but this product really helped soothe my skin. Even when I got prescriptions from the dermatologist, the effects were only temporary, but this allowed my skin to recover better.
Cons
I'm hesitant to purchase it due to the price. I'm currently using a different product. And when shaking it to use, I noticed a bit of oil seeping out of the container.

Pros
I've tried out a lot of samples, so I have a pretty good sense of how this feels. While using this product does leave a somewhat oily finish, it doesn't feel thick or stuffy. As you use it, the texture improves and your cheeks feel softer. The calming effects aren't immediate, but it's not irritating at all - I really like it. If you're considering buying an ampoule, I'd recommend also considering this product. Those with oily skin may find it a bit heavy, though.
Cons
The downside is the oily finish. It's not exactly a powdery, matte finish, but more like having an oily layer on top.
Tip
I use this after applying toner and before using an ampoule.

Pros
I thought I should try using an oil-based ampoule since my skin gets too dry in the winter, and after looking around, I purchased it... It's a holy grail product for me. I've been using it for about a month, and here are the results: 1. The severe dryness that bothers dry skin has disappeared. The difference between using it and not using it is significant. The winter dryness has definitely gone away, so my makeup applies well. 2. The fragrance is close to unscented, so there's no aversion to it. 3. The texture doesn't feel sticky and absorbs well, which is great! 4. The ingredients are good... Isoi, well, there's nothing to say about the ingredients.
Cons
1. There's a bit of an oily feel, so by lunchtime or dinnertime, my skin becomes a bit shiny... 2. Due to the oily feel, my makeup tends to break down a little bit.
Tip
For those with oily skin, it would be good to use it at night before going to bed!

Pros
1. Excellent moisturizing power 2. Kind ingredients +) Even though blemishes were popping up due to the oil, you can still use it without shaking it since the oil floats on top. Those with oily skin, try using it that way.
Cons
1. Oily due to the oil layer. Absolutely cannot use in the middle of summer 2. Unsure of any significant effects. Poor cost-effectiveness

Pros
After a good night's sleep, my skin felt so smooth and supple!! On days when my skin felt particularly rough, tight, or dry, applying this product and then sleeping on it, I could intuitively feel my skin's texture improve, like a baby's skin, the next day.
Cons
Right after application, there's a greasy, oily feeling that floats on top ㅠㅠ It takes time to absorb, and I definitely don't recommend wearing makeup on top of this product! It creates a barrier-like feeling on the skin, so I can't guarantee good makeup adhesion..
Tip
My secret tip for using this product is to apply it right after showering, gently pressing it into the skin with my palms, then mixing a drop or two into my moisturizer and applying that before bed!! When there's no flakiness or excess oil on the skin, the product really sinks in and creates a strong barrier, leaving me with amazingly smooth skin the next day ㅎㅎ
