The package is simple and pretty, and the container is luxurious. It also has a pump dispenser, making it easy to control the amount. The fragrance-free formula means it can be used without any preference issues. The texture is a typical lotion-like formula, not too watery or sticky, and it absorbs well into the skin. I always apply lightweight textures, so I found it a bit stuffy and heavy on my skin, so I only used it before bedtime. Overall, it seemed to be a decent moisturizing product, but those with dry skin may find it a bit drying if used alone.
ConsI didn't notice any noticeable wrinkle improvement effects during the short period of use. Also, the lid is prone to fingerprints, which can make it look messy. In the winter, this alone may not be enough moisture. And the price is a bit burdensome.

Good spreadability Unlike the heavy and sticky emulsions we typically use, this has a light and smooth application, similar to a sunscreen. When applied, it leaves a white cast like a sunscreen, but becomes smooth and soft after fully absorbed. 2. Less oily When looking for cosmetics, we often seek out less oily formulas. This felt more moisturizing than oily when applied, and left a slightly matte finish rather than a sticky one. 3. Non-irritating As someone with sensitive skin, I sometimes experience a stinging sensation when applying products incorrectly. But this went on gently without any issues. + It also has a soothing effect.
Cons1. Slight tightness As a dry-skinned person, I felt a bit of dryness over time. Those with drier skin may find this slightly lacking. 2. Weak packaging The plastic packaging looks a bit flimsy and inexpensive (reminds me of some drugstore brands). 3. Expensive price 45,000 won for 100ml is quite pricey in my opinion. 4. Wrinkle improvement? I'm not sure about that. 5. Slow absorption It tends to sit on the skin surface and absorb slowly. You'll need to pat it in thoroughly.
TipFor dry skin types, it's best to use this product along with other products. A single pump is sufficient. Given the slow absorption, be sure to thoroughly pat it in.

It creates a protective layer on the skin without stickiness, so it seems good for dry-skinned people like me to prevent dryness, but oily-skinned people may feel a bit stuffy. Personally, I prefer this kind of application over something too refreshing or heavy like a nourishing cream!^^ ☆ Feeling after application No stickiness, no greasiness, fluffy but inner skin feels moisturized ☆ Other good points No irritating ingredients, can be used even when skin is sensitive
ConsI didn't experience this! However, oily-skinned people may feel a bit stuffy after application due to the product's texture.
TipI tried to use as few other cosmetics as possible to fully experience this product. After cleansing with a ceramide toner, I applied the 'Banobagi Rejuvenating Vital Emulsion' and an eye cream. Even with just this routine, my cheeks didn't feel dry or lose moisture. When I felt a bit dehydrated (in the evening), I patted on some more toner after cleansing and lightly applied the Rejuvenating Vital Emulsion again, and I didn't need a separate cream. ^^ The best part is that I've been getting small, rough breakouts around my mouth area due to wearing masks, but this product didn't irritate or worsen them, and it didn't dry out my skin, so the itchiness was reduced :) I recommend this!

For about a week, I used this product along with a cica cream - applying the cica cream to the forehead (milia) and using this emulsion primarily on the other areas. The texture is like a lotion, not too thin or too thick, and the application was smooth and not overly sticky. Personally, I found the application to be quite nice. There was no tightness, and the oil didn't excessively come through after some time. It also felt gentle and non-irritating. While the brightening and anti-aging effects weren't noticeable due to the short usage period, it did help soothe the mask-related skin issues. (However, it didn't seem to be very effective for the milia.) Overall, I was fairly satisfied with this product, rating it around a 4 out of 5.
ConsThe volume of 100ml is relatively small compared to other emulsions, yet the price is quite high, so I would hesitate to purchase it without a discount.
TipIf you don't have any specific areas that need extra care, using this product alone would not be a bad option.

I was looking quite pale due to working, but my skin texture has improved and my face has become whiter. It's like a healthy, white glow, as if I had been drinking a lot of water. And the redness seems to have diminished a bit (though I'm not entirely sure). 2. The surface is smooth, but the interior is moisturized. It absorbs incredibly fast and doesn't feel sticky, so even though I usually only applied a little lotion, I can now apply more without it feeling heavy. 3. The container is like a vacuum container? It's great that I can use it all the way to the end.
Cons1. Price: When I looked online, there were no sales and it was 45,000 won. The volume is on the smaller side, so 45,000 won seems a bit expensive. 2. Fragrance: The fragrance has a medicinal or ointment-like smell.
TipIt seems better to apply it at night rather than before makeup. I've had an experience of it leaving marks before.

However, it may be a bit drying to use alone in the winter since it doesn't have a lot of oiliness.
Cons✔Anti-wrinkle Effect: I'm not sure if it's effective for wrinkle improvement yet, as I've only used it for 2 weeks. ✔Ingredients: The ingredients are generally good, but the presence of stearic acid and shea butter, which may not be ideal for oily skin, is a bit concerning.

Being able to review the ingredients and use the products has been invaluable. I also reviewed this product, trusting the ingredients first. ☘The spreadability and absorption are very good. There is no stickiness, which is great. ☘As for wrinkle improvement, I will continue using it with high expectations, as I have only used it for a short period.
ConsSince it's a seasonal change and I tend to have dry skin, it feels a bit dry. I may need to apply more moisturizing cream, though I'm not sure how it will perform in the summer.

For normal to combination skin in the winter, when you're looking for a lightweight yet slightly oily lotion, this could be a good option to try. It doesn't provide an intense burst of hydration, but the balance of oil and moisture is quite good. It replenishes moisture and provides a protective moisturizing layer. 5. Shea Butter This was personally my favorite aspect. Shea butter is often touted for its moisturizing benefits, but for oily, acne-prone skin, it can potentially cause breakouts. I realized this while writing the review - when I used shea butter products in the past, I would get a lot of small pimples the next day. But with this product, I didn't experience any breakouts, even when applying it to my acne-prone areas. So it seems the shea butter content is well-balanced for my skin type. 6. Summary Using this product alone didn't yield significant results for me, but when paired with other products targeting skin texture (I used it with a skin-refining serum), I noticed good synergistic effects. As an emulsion, it has some oil content, but the lightweight texture makes it suitable for combination/oily skin types.
ConsThe moisturizing ability is a bit weak. As someone with combination skin, I was satisfied, but for those with dry skin, the level of hydration may feel a bit lacking. If you use a separate cream, it could work well, but relying on this product alone may be difficult for very dry skin types.

Despite the lack of oiliness, the coating still provides a comfortable, non-drying feel. However, some may find the matte, coated application to feel slightly constricting (it may give the impression of being able to push the product with your fingers, though there is no actual slippage during use). Skin Reaction: Before using this product, I had used a cleanser that did not agree with my skin, leaving my nose and mouth area red, tight, and irritated (a mild contact dermatitis). I was concerned about using this product in that state, but fortunately, it did not cause any further irritation and my skin calmed down quickly. As someone with sensitive skin, this lack of irritation is greatly appreciated.
ConsApplication: The lack of oiliness is a positive, but the coated application can feel slightly constricting, especially in warm weather. Efficacy: Since I've only used it for a short time, I'm not sure if it outperforms other anti-aging, firming skincare products in terms of making my skin feel particularly plump or elastic.
TipNormally, I need to layer on a thick cream to keep my skin from drying out overnight, but with this product, I was able to skip the cream entirely and still wake up with non-drying skin, even after applying it in a double layer. For oily skin types who dislike heavy creams, this could be a suitable alternative, at least during the non-winter seasons.
