Despite being an oil, it feels surprisingly light! I honestly couldn't live without it. I bet most people who use this feel the same way. It's amazing that this product has remained unchanged for at least 20 years. But then again, why change a good thing when it comes to oils, right? I've purchased it through various platforms over the years, and interestingly, the price has actually become more affordable. I'd definitely recommend giving it a try!
ConsWhen I'm tired, it tends to sit on top of my skin. In those cases, I either skip it entirely or use it only as part of my nighttime routine. The glass bottle is nice, but being transparent, it can affect the product's shelf life. Compared to opaque containers, I feel like it doesn't last quite as long. I once stocked up on it and found myself in a bit of a pickle!
TipWhile it's an oil, it's not overly greasy. However, there are times when it doesn't absorb well. In those cases, using a sebum-free powder to control the oiliness can be helpful. I avoid using it for bare-faced outings. On the plus side, it's great for lifting your mood!

The scent is absolutely lovely. I have combination-sensitive skin, and it's never caused any blemishes.
ConsThe price...? Other than that, I can't think of anything negative to say.
TipIt's convenient to mix a drop with your emulsion or foundation for easy application.

With winter here, no matter what product I apply, my skin dries out as soon as I step outside. It's so frustrating! That's why I wanted to strengthen my skincare routine and try a face oil as the final step, so I bought this product! When I first smelled it, it reminded me of a pharmacy scent, but I didn't mind it at all - I actually found it quite pleasant. This face oil is apparently designed for oily skin types. Even though I have combination skin, I found that after completing my skincare routine, putting 3-4 drops in my hands, warming it up, and then gently pressing it into my skin when my face feels warm, it seems to help my skin retain moisture for longer!
ConsThe ingredients... oh, it's such a shame! Apart from the ingredient list, everything else about this product was perfect for me - the feel, the results. But because of the ingredients, I probably won't repurchase it, unfortunately.
TipI mixed it with my foundation that was too drying for winter, and it helped improve the dryness a bit. However, mixing it with foundation sometimes caused pilling, so I only did this when my skin was extremely dry.

I rub two to three drops between my hands and apply it all over my face. First off, I was relieved that it didn't cause any blemishes or red spots. It keeps my skin hydrated without feeling too greasy. Two to three drops seemed to be the perfect amount. Applying too much made my face look shiny and felt uncomfortable, like there was a layer sitting on my skin. (Of course, it can't be completely matte - it is an oil after all.) It's not easy to finish a whole bottle of oil, but I've already used more than half of it.
ConsAh... the ingredients... I wish they could remove some of the unnecessary ones... Is that too much to ask? Also, it's really crucial to control the amount when using this product.
TipI usually use about two drops to create a light protective layer on my skin. If my face feels too oily, I just apply it around my eyes instead of eye cream. In that case, even one drop is plenty.

I received a sample and ended up buying the full-size product! The scent might be hit or miss for some, but I absolutely love it. When I use this, I hardly get any blemishes!
ConsIt's way too expensive... 65,000 won is just too much. Also, surprisingly, the ingredients aren't as good as I expected.

While some say scented skincare isn't ideal, I just can't give up this aroma. Mixing a drop or two with my essence toner leaves my skin hydrated, with minimal tightness, and instantly brightens my complexion.
ConsThough it's one of my beloved products, I'm disappointed to see it contains quite a few less-than-ideal ingredients.
TipI mix it with Kiehl's Calendula Toner for a wonderfully fresh base. When my skin feels dry, I blend it into my moisturizer for extra hydration.

The moment I applied it, I felt so relaxed by its unique scent and texture - it's like instant therapy! Every morning after washing my face, I feel refreshed and in a good mood when I put it on. I heard Lotus is designed for oily skin types, but even with my dry skin, it's moisturizing and I have no issues using it. I used to struggle with deep dryness every winter, but thanks to this oil, I think I'll get through this winter just fine. I'm definitely repurchasing when I run out!
ConsAs some reviews mentioned, the price is a bit disappointing. It's too expensive for the amount you get. My wallet is crying!
TipYou don't need to apply a lot. Just mix a drop or two with your emulsion and your skin will be as smooth as honey!

I've repurchased it more than four times now. I'll need to buy it again before the weather gets even drier.
ConsI'm not a fan of oil-based products, so I was hesitant at first. However, it absorbs well into the skin, which is nice. I wasn't aware it contained potential allergens though.
TipMixing it with an emulsion makes it even more hydrating.

As someone with oily skin, I was hesitant about using oils, but this one isn't too sticky and smells amazing. It's especially great in winter when mixed with a nourishing or hydrating cream.
ConsI bought this in the US, but when I tried to purchase it in Korea, I was shocked by how expensive it was. I was also surprised to see so many potential allergens in the ingredients list. Fortunately, I didn't experience any adverse reactions.
TipFor best results, drop one or two drops onto your palm, rub your hands together to warm it up, then gently press it onto your face.

Using it in the evening helps calm both mind and body. The oil absorbs instantly, so I use it year-round except for the peak of summer. It's the perfect product to apply as a final step in your nighttime routine.
ConsThe dropper can be a bit inconvenient, and sometimes it's tricky to control the amount of product dispensed.
