Although it contains oil, it is not at all sticky or heavy, and it feels incredibly refreshing^^ It's a truly refreshing water-oil formula that absorbs quickly and leaves behind only a moisturized feeling without any stickiness, so I recommend it for all skin types!👍🏻 It penetrates deep into the skin and delivers abundant moisturizing power, and it also acts as a moisture lock protection barrier~ It's a truly smart and soothing ampoule~ Despite its lightweight formula, it has great moisturizing and hydrating effects, and as a soothing ampoule, it's really effective! Even when using it on sensitive skin days, it's so gentle and non-irritating, and my skin feels comfortable. When I used it when I had blemishes, the blemishes calmed down by the next day, which was great😍
ConsThe ampoule size is too small~ The downside is that it gets used up quickly ㅋ It would be great if there was a larger size available!
TipBe sure to shake it well before use to mix the oil layer and the water layer!

I bought it during a sale.
ConsFor those with extremely dry skin, additional moisturizing lotion may be needed, but in the summer, this alone can serve as a basic skincare routine.

The redness that comes with my period is quickly soothed when I apply this. The timing seems to work well, though it could be a coincidence... But I feel like I've really benefited from this ampoule. I bought this along with the famous pink serum from Isoi, and I think this one is even better. It absorbs cleanly, so it doesn't feel heavy even if I layer other products on top. It's so nice to just apply this lightly in the morning, and then follow up with a cream at night - it's a complete routine.
ConsThe cost-effectiveness is questionable. It disappears in an instant. It flows like water, dripping and dripping off my face onto the floor. It really pains me.

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.
Cons1. 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.
TipFor those with oily skin, it would be good to use it at night before going to bed!

Moisture, no tightness, no burden at all even when using it for the first time On top of that, the spreadability, absorption, longevity, and effectiveness are all perfect, and it doesn't change over time and has no oiliness or greasiness!
ConsThe price is ㅋㅋㅋ the only slight disappointment is that I really want to use it a lot, but the price is high^^
TipI just use it! Anytime, anywhere! I feel the price is high because I use it a lot, but it's fine if you skip the ineffective other things^^

The refreshing fragrance is so soothing that I feel great every time I apply it and it envelops my face. 2. Even though it's a type with separated oil layers, the absorption is better than water-based ampoules. I usually dislike oily products and heavy textures, but I really love the feel of this ampoule. 3. After using this product, I no longer experience any trouble, including the white bumps that used to appear occasionally. 4. Instead of a heavy cream, the combination of this ampoule and a light cream actually balances my oil and moisture levels, improving dryness, and it allows me to simplify my skincare routine.
ConsI've never had this issue with other products, but for some reason, I often forget to close the lid tightly after using this ampoule. 😭 Shaking and mixing it before use is not a major step, but it's a bit of a hassle. When I use it with a creamy, oily moisturizer, it leaves my skin feeling overly oily and dry at the same time. So it doesn't seem to pair well with heavier, anti-aging type products. A light, water-based ampoule and a low-oil cream work best for me as a good combination.
