I have combination dehydrated skin with an extremely oily T-zone (butterfly zone, nose, and forehead), while my cheeks and chin are painfully dry. My skin is also prone to blemishes, and I absolutely hate sticky products. Additionally, my skin doesn't react well to aloe or tea tree. * Value for money: Offline - 34,000 won Online - mid to late 20,000 won range * Application: I used only this ampoule for over 2 weeks before bed! When dispensed with the dropper, it's clear and lightweight like a toner. It absorbs quickly when applied to the face. It feels like an extra layer of oil on the skin. If you apply too much, it can pill like dead skin cells. * Hydration: Because it absorbs quickly, the feeling of hydration doesn't last long. However, when I use it before bed, my skin feels very hydrated the next morning. * Stickiness: The finish is matte with no residue. On a stickiness scale of 1-10, I'd rate it 1-2. I usually avoid applying products because I dislike stickiness, but I'm happy using just this one before bed.
ConsIt absorbs so quickly that it feels almost matte. Also, it's a bit disappointing that it pills like dead skin cells if you apply too much. On the bright side, it doesn't cause any blemishes.
TipI used this product alone. In fact, if I layer it with other products, the pilling gets worse. I recommend applying it in the evening before bed.

Although it doesn't seem to contain oil, the texture felt like an oil ampoule. (My skin doesn't agree with oils, except for 'like oil' products.) As someone with sensitive, dry skin, I often react badly to functional ampoules, getting redness and irritation. However, this product didn't cause any such issues, making it comfortable to use. I have atopic dermatitis around my mouth, and on days when it was severe, there was a slight tingling sensation. Although it felt a bit warm, it quickly subsided without causing further irritation, which I appreciated. Being a functional ampoule, it felt slightly oily and heavy. Applying it once or twice was enough to give a slightly shiny and smooth feeling. However, if you gently pat and massage it in, it absorbs quickly. I use a cica cream, and when I applied this ampoule before the cream, it reduced the greasy and heavy feeling. Once absorbed, it leaves the skin feeling firm. Even after applying just the ampoule twice before going out, my skin didn't feel dry or irritated. It felt like it created a protective barrier, which seems great for dry skin. When I apply a generous amount before bed, like a sleeping mask, my skin feels incredibly firm and supple in the morning. I found this ampoule most effective for improving skin elasticity. After about two weeks of use, I noticed my complexion looked brighter, so I've started applying it to my neck as well.
ConsI usually layer all my skincare products at least twice, but this ampoule felt too greasy and heavy for that. When I layered it three times and applied makeup, it tended to pill slightly. Also, I noticed some small blemishes appearing... When I reduced the layering to twice or less and used smaller amounts, the blemishes stopped appearing and it felt less heavy. It felt more rich than hydrating, so when my skin was dehydrated, it felt like the product was sitting on top of my skin while still feeling dry underneath. It's expensive... Of course, given its functionality and gentle ingredients, it might be worth it. Because it feels like it creates an oily film on the skin, it tends to attract dust and particles.
TipApplying a small amount in one layer and massaging it in for absorption gives the best firming effect! If it feels too greasy, applying a slightly matte cream or cica cream afterwards can help! It's a great shield against harsh winter winds! Your face won't feel irritated or inflamed. If you have dehydrated skin, I recommend applying a viscous toner or serum generously, then this ampoule, followed by a light cream!
